Political interest in Lafourche Parish!!!
FACTS:
Yesterday is history, hopefully we increased our knowledge for future reference. Today is an opportunity to constructively use our knowledge. Tomorrow remains a mystery.
OPINIONS:
In my opinion, the actions of some of Lafourche Parish elected officials today indicate that they did not increase their knowledge from yesterday. The Lafourche Parish elected officials actions tomorrow is not a mystery to the tax payers of Lafourche. Same–o, Same–o. More taxes, more fees and less service. (we must now pay a fee for what was once free, culverts. Compliments of the “Lafourche First” Council.)
There is an aspect of Lafourche that remains a mystery. Why does there appear to be a lack of interest in the up coming elections? Do we dare place the blame on the lack of productivity of our present day elected officials? Is it the alleged public corruption in Lafourche? Are we waiting for “Lafourche First” to regroup and endorse candidates with “Lafourche First” core values? Are we weary of Charlotte Randolph”s administration allegedly violating laws without consequences? Are we weary of alleged selective arrest and prosecution in Lafourche Parish? Be strong my fellow weary citizens, for next year we will have an opportunity to speak out on all of our non productive elected officials. We, the tax payers, will have the opportunity to re-examine the position of DA in the fall of 2008.
Keep in touch, be informed and remember that we, the tax payers, have the final say-so. Elected officials must earn our respect, it is not a gimme with most of us.
