A piece on civility in government, which doesn't match the reality. Curiously this particular bastion of free speech thinks I might be a robot.
My rejected comments are below the jump.
Municipal Government is retail government, and reaching out to every individual is essential - all the more so in groups with which the City has a fiscal relationship - community or business.
This proclamation is nothing but another example of Western Washington passive aggressiveness.
Witness the recent McKinley hill incidents.
Witness also Mayor Strickland's own State of the City speech where she prominently referred to the current 'Moxie' scandal of hateful partisan politics - not to mention her 'shout out' to Pierce County CLC conspirators.
The sad tragic fact is that 'civil' society in Western Washington attacks independents with integrity whenever they come anywhere near government - right or left controlled.
