In a letter recently published in the Miller City News and proudly posted on the Grandpa Terrorist's OTHER site a Claudia wrote about the so called old guard soon being replaced by some kind of new guard. Well her views need some 'Right Guard' cause they 'Stank' as bad as Walt's baloney! it was amusing at first how folks attempt to use half truths and partial facts to spin the scene in Grand Terrace as horrific and apocalyptic, some how in need of a new savior, or perhaps the Grandpa Terrorists puppet to come and save us all. Politics in Grand Terrace has become strictly personal, it is no longer about anyone's plan or vision it is only about mud and who slings the most. Not that we are unique in any way as the national scene is littered with candidates that have no real platform other than having the most hits on YouTube or fans on facebook making them seem viable as politicians. I don't really care so much if a guy in Oregon who thinks that AIDS is a government lie or a girl back east that used to be a witch getting elected, but I do care about our little chunk of real estate. I grow more concerned each day that the busy lives that are demanded by today's world have created a sense of apathy and lack of real involvement from most people to the point that headlines and gossip may actually determine votes if only because people don't have the time to do real research on their own and will vote form views formed in haste. To that end here are a few thoughts to mull over.
Claudia stated that Mr. Wilson, a great citizen of Grand Terrace, has "In public session at the City Council meeting (a forum which he now uses as his personal campaign stumping grounds) he insisted that "No candidates be allowed to put up campaign signs until the official Oct. 2 date." Everyone but him, that is. The old guard is just simply that - old, rusty and mired in the intimidation practices of the past" That's real funny Claudia because when this became an issue I began looking around on my daily travels through town and one blaring point became clear, it was only WALTS signs I saw taped to windows and stuck in yards! He even bragged to the SB Sun that he personally handed out the signs to his 'citizen supporters' and COACHED them on Protected Political Free Speech! Mr. Wilson was the one seen about town taking photos of the rule breaking propaganda, not posting signs himself! A finer case of taking others option as gospel without looking into things for your self there isnt!
She goes on to make another comment with this gem of idiocy: "Friends, the covers are off and the lights are on! We now have a slate of change agents we can be proud of..."
Slate of change agents? REALLY Claudia? Agents for change? Could that sound any MORE SINISTER???
Lets just pray that intelligence and clarity prevail over the mindless followers of the Grandpa Terrorist organization and the Millers just finally give up trying to make this Miller town once and for all. I'm just saying.
