SandBoxBlogs: Glenwood Springs Post Independent "Glenwood Springs urges denial of Thompson unitization"

What say you?

Are you weary of Glenwood Springs City Councilman Leo McKinney's claims that he and fellow council members are  'the voice of the people of Glenwood Springs' ?  Especially when it comes to all of his political manifestos such as MMJ, the response to Katrina, CIRC and the "Strawberry Days Massacre", illegal immigration, plastic bags and water bottles and just about every national political hot topic that comes down the pike?

The great news is that he's up for re-elect next year and you can remove him from office.

Gamba and GarCo BOCC are right.  Traffic is a non-issue.

The only thing more denigrating to the people of GarCo than the fear-mongering that Thompson Divide Coalition is whipping into a witch burning frenzy aimed at the gas and oil drilling industry are the politicians who condone that kind of political statement and do so under the false banner of being the voice of the people.

Here's an 'anonymous' tip for you, Leo. 

Go online and google up the instructions on how to set-up mass email.  Then solicit 'the voices of Glenwood Springs' for anyone interested in giving you an email address that they are willing to communicate with you from.

Then.....instead of stealth confiscating their voices....just simply ask them for their opinion.

It's a new and brave world out here.    

Come to think of it, how tough would it be for all councilman and commissioners to do same?

Just say NO to the Thompson Divide Coalition and say YES to environmentally conscious EnCana, SG Interests and Antero.

John Stroud:
"...Council was split on the wording, but ultimately voted 4-3 to forward the letter as written by Councilman Leo McKinney.

“I believe it is one of our responsibilities as elected officials to be the voice of the people in our community in places where they don't have a voice,” McKinney said...."  (Read more?  Click title)
