[Vision2020] recall petition

[Dan Carscallen]

Weitz does not live in Moscow (neither do several prolific v2020
posters, as if that matters) but he does own a business in Moscow and
therefore bears some of the burden imposed by a city council.  

Petitions are always interesting.  Recalls are even more so.

Let me see if I have this right.

Mr. Weitz (who doesn’t live in Moscow) has taken it upon himself to
represent anonymous businesses (that may or may not be located in
Moscow) in distributing a petition (within Moscow) calling for the
ouster of Moscow City Council members because they (the council members)
are simply attempting qualify city development plans in the community’s
best interest?

This has a very familiar odor to it.  Thank God I didn’t step in it,
huh?

Thoughts?

We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some
are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but
they all exist very nicely in the same box.

Visionaries:
 
I am curious about the business people who wish to remain anonymous.  Do
they really exist?  If so, why in the world won't they identify
themselves?  It is an indication of integrity to make a public stand,
especially if the issue is contentious or unpopular.  However, there is
nothing honorable about hiding one's identity while stirring the trouble
pot.  I, for one, would like to know who these (alleged) business people
are so that we can hear from them what issues prompted the recall
petitions.
