The butthurt brotherhood rides again!

Just saw a Southerland commercial for the first time on KBTX. He is seriously SO NEGATIVE. It is very off-putting. That's all.
quote:Do you ever just get up in the morning, look at the clock and wish you'd stayed asleep....sweet dreams...fun blogging with you.
Sad day for Bryan.
Oh well.
quote:The Bienski crowd sure got quiet up in here.
Sad day for Bryan.
Oh well.
quote:Wrong. We now have some good folks who will ask questions before rubber stamping the Bienski agenda. That's a good thing, don't ya know.
All progress Bryan has made ends today. We now have Dumb, Dumber, and Dumberer on Council.
quote:You mean, representatives of District 1, 2, 4....elected by and for the people, by the people. We, the people, have spoken. It was a good night for Bryan. Lots of good will come from this election. Bryan is a better city today.

quote:Sorry buddy, but I am a newbie to Bryan politics...have no relationship to Mike Southerland, expect worked on his campaign. I live near the Women's Center and post elsewhere as TexasEagle1.
TakenToTask= Southerland
quote:And yet was overwhelmingly elected to a new term on Council. I guess none of those voters were informed, either. Methinks you are the one who needs to learn more. Congrats to Mike!
Ah, well that makes a lot of sense. You don't know about Bryan politics and you must not know about Southerland's previous years on the Council. He was unproductive, divisive and negative. Too bad you didn't know more about Bryan and it's past and specifically Southerland on council.
quote:Newbie meant I am not part of the dynasty of the Bryan political elite and never worked on a campaign before. However, I have been here long enough to be fully aware of the Southerland years on council. I liked his ability to study issues, raise issues others hadn't thought of, challenge the status quo, and present alternative plans. Anyone who has studied Mike's record knows that when he voted no he countered with a better plan that was more efficient, less costly and more in line with the wishes of the community. To me, this is an outstanding record. When we disagree with someone we like to use words like divisive and negative...when we agree with them, we see their actions are forwarding looking and in the best interests of all. My view is that the city has wasted millions of the taxpayer's dollars on fancy deals that were unwise for the city....in many of those cases my views agree with Mike's

For example, can you explain why we would give a $5M tax break to a company owned by one of the richest families in America, a company that makes millions every day, a company that destroys other local businesses (so the new business destroys jobs, but then claims to create them), pays low wages (many workers are officially in poverty and get poor benefits), and whose profits ultimately leave our community headed to the pockets of shareholders and the Waltons). We even built infrastructure for them. That company should have been paying us to come to the West side of Bryan. This endeavor makes the La Salle hotel seem like a genius idea.
