It Just Goes To Show

Blake Fontenay has a pretty good article on the vote to increase the City Mayor's salary Tuesday night. It mostly goes to show what a weasel Ricky Peete is. It's a good thing he has brown skin, so we don't see all the shit on his nose from having it up Herenton's ass. After weeks of discussion and votes that pretty much made it clear the issue was dead, he had this to say Tuesday:

"I think this is a fair and equitable salary,'' Peete said of the increase. "We've discussed this thoroughly over the last six or seven weeks. Now we can get on with the business of the city."

No, dipshit. We had the matter settled. You played dirty pool.

Just goes to show what a combination of behind-the-scenes lobbying and some good old insults from King Herenton can do.
