Kick them while they are down

In normal Gargoyle Leader vulture like style, they have decided to kick Stehly while she is down. This of course is something you would expect out of the blogosphere, Johnson’s campaign or editorial cartoonists. What purpose does it serve? Would the results been different if more people voted? Maybe? That’s right kiddies, the Gargoyle fails to mention that on a bright sunny day in Sux Falls 86% of registered voters didn’t even bother to show up to the polls. The super precints didn’t help matters either. This from a city that doesn’t have a problem with spending 3 million on a street that only benefits wealthy developers but claims they set up the super precincts to save us a lousy $12,000. Yeah right, it’s all about saving money. Maybe we should buy city hall a skid loader so they can start scooping up all the bullshit in that building. Apathy and special interests won yesterday in the city election and the 86% of voters that chose to stay home instead of voting should be ashamed of themselves. We’ll see if they wakeup in 2010 when we still don’t have the Lewis and Clark Pipeline (that we are currently paying for without a guarantee we are getting it), our deficit doubles because we decided to build an Event Center that will mostly be empty 90% of the year and the city is backlogged up to there necks in infastructure projects and lawsuits* (*more to come on this in the near future).

Way to go Sioux Falls, you have proven once again how truly sucky you are.
