AAAAAHHHHHHH.....poor babies....bump
I was almost fired for bringing up FR at work. A moonbat coworker reported me for visiting a "hate site".
LaCasse contended that as president and a voting ex-officio member of every council committee, he had membership in each of the committees that made up the joint committee - and therefore had two votes.Councilor Bill Bowles took issue with the interpretation, arguing a joint committee is a single committee with each member getting one vote.
Mangiaratti agreed with Bowles's interpretation, saying that a joint committee is a "separate and unified deliberative assembly" with each member getting a single vote.
He said he reviewed the city charter, city ordinances, council rules of procedure and Robert's Rules of Order, but could find no rule that covered the situation.
Furthermore, after discussing the question with colleagues at his law firm, Murphy, Hesse, Toomey & LeHane, Mangiaratti said, there was "no clear answer."
"I cannot say with authority the position of Mr. LaCasse with respect to his ability to cast two votes at the joint committee meeting was plainly wrong," he wrote.
But he said two votes for one committee member is out of the ordinary.
Then shouldn't the Voters get more than one vote for items that combine Town, State, and Federal funds/properties? With these inbred clowns is it any wonder the USA is headed down the wrong path?
Please, the official slang term for my home-state is My-ass-itch-ooze-zits.
False advertising:
you guys never told me that Free Republic was a left wing hate site....
"(They didn't even have the right address, which is why they got redirected to one of those placeholder web sites with a search engine box.)"
Pretty funny that an investigative reporter can't figure out he has the wrong address. Instead, he tries to make it appear as if the website 'disappeared.' What was he trying to do, make it appear that something sinister was going on? /sarc
I'm guessing that they have a printout with the URL at the top of the page. When they type it in, it is not recognized because the thread has been removed from FR.
Remember, when democrats are involved it's not the facts that matter, but the "seriousness of the charge".
Oh man, that's the funniest thing I've seen around here in a while. Well done!
Rolling all over the floor, LMAO!
Left wing, freepublic.com...

Left wing?! ....!!! ROFLMFAO!!!!!!
LOL!!!!!
It's obvious that they don't know what FR is. I still don't get (even if they thought they knew who said it), why "they" didn't have the right to say it.
I'm guessing that someone doesn't know thier right from their left, but that's just a wild guess.
ya oughta read it, too!
These a-holes should pucker up and place their collective kissers right on John McCain's butt. I hear he has a bee in his bonnet about the "blogosphere" too.
I fired off an e-mail to their editor with the correct links to the news forum, the front page, and teh statement by Jim.
And I told the editor that their reporters were sloppy.
