It was not long ago when the former Fire Chief was run out of town by his underlings for leering at them in the showers. The statute of limitations on child molestation had run out by the time the young lad, James Lunsford, muscled up the courage to speak out. Dan Ronan, former WFAA reporter, ran an expose that revealed what many had observed. After a stormy confrontation at a public forum at Berkner High School, and Jones' resignation, City Manager, Bill Keffler enabled him to return to City employment long enough to qualify for a lifetime City of Richardson pension. Any City Hall watcher would have loved to be a fly on the wall during that conversation. One can only wonder what leverage Jones used to convince Keffler to bend over backwards to accommodate Jones. In May 12, 2012 election news, Mike Jones just won a seat back on the Wills Point City Council. Van Zandt County has a reputation of its own. Jones was never charged, arrested or prosecuted for his actions because the clock had run out on the justice system. Pray for the people of Wills Point. |

The Governing Class and Us
The Heritage Foundation 4/19/2012
In a speech yesterday in Elyria, Ohio -- a small town just outside Cleveland sitting at the forks of the Black River -- President Barack Obama delivered a politically charged speech in which he hearkened back to the country's roots, saying that his opponents "don't seem to remember how America was built." In his view, taxpayers want their money spent in ways that will help further "the larger project we call America." In other words, more spending and bigger government paid for with higher taxes.

Richardson Chamber of Commerce fails to meet the demands of City Council for developing retail. Liberal enticements in the form of public funding of renovations and remodelling, grants, loans and tax abaitments have done little to attract the scale of retail that other Metroplex municipalities enjoy.

Unscrupulous public officials have been attacking the Texas Open Meetings and Public Information Acts in an effort to remove the teeth from this legislation. These Legislative Acts were necessarily adopted to remind public servants that the business conducted on behalf of the public is the property of the people. Prior to enactment, public servants chose what to tell the public about their activities while employed in public service. When most places of employment demand loyalty to the employer to keep the job, public employment has become more focused on workforce unity in an adversarial disposition toward the public they were hired/elected to serve. Transparency and open government have become the terms used to describe the circumstantial absence of it.

The Holy Gospel according to John 3:19-21:
"And this is the judgement: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their deeds were evil. For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his deeds have been carried out in God." |

What's Wrong With Rental Inspections?
by Deborah Morris
At first glance, the idea of inspecting rental houses to make sure they're safe and sanitary sounds reasonable. We're all in favor of ridding the city of slumlords and substandard housing, right?
