THE THREE MUSKETEERS

Before Charter Change started heating up and John Franck
promised if the date for a vote was changed from May 30th to Election Day he
would take no sides. Well, the promise
was broken about 3 months later when it started to look and sound like many
people were getting excited about changing the form of government and many
prior supporters of not changing, switched sides and now want change.
The point of this is that as election day draws near 3
Council members are starting to show signs of cracking up and are really
helping those who want change instead of their sob stories and ‘presentations’
to gob the truths about changing to a Mayor/Council/Manager form of government.
Now though back to the caption. Before
February when Franck made his promise to stay clear of the process with a
Commission promise of an Election Day vote on the Charter there were on the
Council the ‘3 Musketeers’. These 3
(Madigan, Scirocco and Matheisen) voted in block about 99 ½% of the time. Frank and Madigan could not stand one another
and Madigan was picked up on the microphone once in a while swearing at or
calling Franck names. He likewise
although not as constant or disgusting as she challenged her aptitude with dealing in the finances
even referring to her at a Council meeting as just a librarian.
Once Commissioner Matheisen announced his decision to
support Charter Change and his reasons why, the ‘3 Musketeers’ realigned themselves
(with new Cavalier feathered hats of course) made up of Franck, Madigan &
Scirocco. Folks, everything from there
went downhill, Council meetings became (if you can believe it) more
contentious, the 3 Musketeers being
nastier with citizens and the other 2 Council members.
The presentations they put on at meetings can
only be referred to as comedy routines.
This is a prime
example of when politician’s that can’t stand each other band together when a
clear and present danger, that of losing their power seems imminent.
The 2 things to look at with these 3 are ‘follow
their money’ and the ‘political patronage’ they engage in not to mention the
mass amounts of money we’ve lost in lawsuits because of their decisions.
