The Public Safety Committee was traveling the state to get input on the newly passed gun law. As a law abiding gun owner I attended the meeting to voice my opinion on the poorly worded law. (Side bar - the law does more to punish law abiding gun owners than it does criminals)<BR/><BR/>The local reps, Rodrigues, Sullivan and Correia were present. A man in the crowd stood up and asked Correia how could he vote for the gun law.<BR/><BR/>Correia answered this way:<BR/><BR/>It is a bad law, but I am in leadership and on the leadership team, and when you are on leadership team you have to vote with leadership.<BR/><BR/>Of course this is a paraphrase, but it is extremely close to what he said, especially the part when you are part of leadership, you have to vote with leadership.<BR/><BR/>Now I ask you, is that true leadership?<BR/><BR/>NO!<BR/><BR/>So right at that point I discovered the true Bob, an old tired follower, no true leader there!Tom Painehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02033973375820057223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5011463182147161614.post-74490817055543553722008-08-12T10:19:00.000-04:002008-08-12T10:19:00.000-04:00I'd love to see Lyonnais' full resume including de...I'd love to see Lyonnais' full resume including details about the so-called university where she earned her 2-year degree. Couldn't King Bob find someone with a bachelor's degree at the very least (let alone a master's)? Lyonnais may be competent, but does 7 years in "banking" (was she in finance, management, or was she a teller?...it makes a difference)and 5 years at Gibbs College in a "finance supervisory" position really qualify her to be a department head in a city whose financial management is in shambles? Also, the HN article mentions that she has 3 pages of improvements she's made since taking the interim job. Really? 3 full pages? Could we see this list? The improvements listed in the article sound grand but those don't add up to even 1 page. And exactly how did she relieve the long waiting lines of folks trying to pay their bills at lunchtime? Is the staff no longer allowed to take lunch breaks, perhaps? (King Bobby would love that!) I'm all for promoting from within, but your blog questions Bob's hiring practices with good reason based on his past history. EVERYTHING he does needs to be called into question. I believe he is a manipulative liar, and not a very good one. A good liar will keep track of his lies and not make easily disproved statements like "I haven't had any direct interchange with [Laughlin] in the last 40 [years]." Therefore none of his actions or motives can ever be trusted and must always be challenged. NOTHING he does is ever in the best interests of the city, but in the best interests of Bob! Unfortunately, even people who may be qualified to handle the jobs King Bob bestows upon them must be called into question as well. These people, like Lyonnais, are automatically tainted simply by their association with our oily mayor.Puckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09884356413212747429noreply@blogger.com
