YAY!!!!!   Good news from council! I just got my preliminary phone call updating me on the council meeting and it appears that despite Dwayne's grandstanding and the "Donut Diaries" that he whipped out at council when he thought he was on the verge of losing, the resolution did not pass!

So get this....SOMEBODY called the media and the news crews were out in full force with their cameras to witness this shining moment in our town's history.

Crawford makes a motion to pass his illegal alien resolution and recieves no second.

BS motions to defer the vote on the resolution until the July meeting so that the public can offer input.  She recieves no second.

Williams states that he thinks the issue needs to be resolved tonight because it will only "fester" and become a much bigger issue than it has already become.

Barnes motions to NOT PASS the resolution and Williams seconds.  THEN..... Crawford reaches into his bag of tricks and whips out a paper that the Crackah has dubbed "The Donut Diaries" because evidently he would like for us to follow suit with Dunkin' Donuts who have adopted some type of resolution or something and they have a website where the forms for illegals can be verified..... Not sure about the details of this because I couldn't quit laughing when I heard Dunkin' Donuts.....

Anyway, this tells ME that Dwayne is prepared to do the enforcing even though he has stated that he is not interested in the town enforcing such a resolution.... only making a political statement.

So as a desperate LAST DITCH effort to save his precious resolution Dwayne starts playing with semantics (much like he did before the fall election debacle) He starts IMPLYING that since some of the council don't support his resolution then they are obviously in support of illegals and that they are voluntarily CHOOSING not to honor the laws of our country.  I hear it was absolutely ridiculous.  Ms. Barnes quickly put him in his place.  Yay Dena!

BS starts rambling about "mutually exclusive" comments which made no sense other than to point out that she and DC are mutually exclusive.

Anyhoo... the resolution did not pass... 3-2 vote.  BS and DC against natch.  The very large crowd in attendance whooped, hollered and applauded to show their support.

OH yea... and they served Krispy Kreme Donuts in the kitchen at break.

Well shoot Mike.  I didn't hear that part.  Where is Scuba Jane with her trippin' flippers when ya need her???

Figured Mom would still be busy with Mayor Holliday trying to get the coliseum to sell her kind of popsicles.   Maybe she heard Donuts and couldn't stay away!

Hey Hairbrush or anyone else who might know... is that budget meeting on the 19th?

SRA folks NEED to come to that meeting!

HEY Baseball Buddy! 

Welcome to the forum!!!!!

 I'm guessing your a ball field supporter!!

Sports Complex huh?  Quit with the word games already BS.

Reckon they'd consider selling donuts at the concession stand at our new "sports complex"?? Might help to get Crawford's vote.

I like you already Baseball Buddy.
