Maybe someone in the Becker Camp reads MUSA and passed along to the councilman my comments about his lack of participation at council meetings. Because lat night Becker spoke more than I have heard in all my meetings.

For those of you counting that is close to 2 minutes of conversation in one meeting.

The first clip is the obligatory speech you make and the second clip was him getting fed up with all the issues wasting his time. Nothing more than the usual for Becker.
They voted to keep Consoc, now they must deal with the issues.

For some reason, the words
"There is no compelling reason to change!"
keep ringing in my ears!!!

C'mon Pac- Billy's got bigger fish to fry now. He's a big doggie now (a DIErector, don't cha know!) and doesn't really have time for Middletown business and problems. This pesky city business is "just a nuisance". He's "moving on up to the east side....to that DEEElux apartment in the sky" just like the Jefferson's did way back when..... Ohh Billy, we little people knew ye when you were one of us in town.

Vet the impression Becker leaves me with after every meeting is that this is a waste of his time.

I always felt that Mr Becker's "Public Service" was more Resume building than anything else.
I will admit I don't know him and that is just an impression.

I hate that term "public service" as if they are doing it for free. Hell, they get to retire a decade or two before most of us. The perks are why most of those cops and firemen want those jobs.

Too bad that city council doesn't use congressional rules. Then, like congress, they could've cooked up the 1607 Central Ave deal behind closed doors, passed a "modification" with three "yes" votes", had Landen issue one of his famous "abstentions (Armbruster) count with the side I want them on" rulings, and then "deem" the ordinance passed!!!
