Zack Matheny has come up short again with his idea to move all speakers from the floor to the end of the meeting unless they are speaking on "city business". There is nothing I would like better than to go after Matheny again just because he is soooo obtuse and easy. Unfortunately I am in agreement with the D-Jerk on this issue.I watch all the televised meetings and since I don't want to stay up until the wee hours either I would rather the speakers only address city issues at the first 30 minute forum. The only thing I would fault him on is that to my mind it is a superfluous motion because I have only heard maybe a half dozen people speak on other than city business in my four years of watching these meetings. ( The "monkey whale" thing was in it's way about city business if you want to stretch things a bit as it was advertising a city event. And it was soooooo funny!)
I guess since it is really a non-issue and so typical of Zack "One beer short of a six pack" Matheny's abilities that one could write a hilarious put down, but I think I want to save my little "digs" for something more important. And I am sure there will be much that is more important since his voting record is sure to be anything but sane and considerate of the residents of Greensboro.
In my April 2 blog post I went member by member and hit them on the White Street Landfill vote. Then being so angry I e-mailed ZM the portion about him. ( And again my own representative on the City Council, Zack Matheny showed himself to be unaware of the facts, but not willing to hear them since he had already been instructed by his handlers (the developers) to vote against doing anything that would hinder their having this land to build on. I know some refer to his youth and blame that on his lack, but let us face it, some people are just plain ill equipped to think for themselves or to allow their minds to be infiltrated with a thought beyond what they have already been told for fear of becoming confused.)
He fired an irate e-mail back at me telling me how he had done "considerable research on the issue before the meeting". LOL So I mailed off another missile all but calling him a liar and pointing out a few more of his asininities from previous meetings verbatim. After listing these quotes I ask him if he would claim to have done considerable research on these issues also. And if so then he really did need to work on his study skills. I suggested the American Heritage Dictionary and Britannica Junior as probably within his capabilities.
Bless his heart, it is so comforting to know just how well we in District 3 are being represented on Greensboro City Council. BB
