Is “Lafourche First” Seasonal?
FACTS:
The good people of Lafourche Parish and the surrounding area are very much aware of the arrival of the love-bugs. They (love bugs) appear on the scene twice a year, late spring and late summer. We are trying to figure out the reason for their existence. We know that they can be classified as a nuisance. We seem to be happier when they are no longer around. We are extremely happy that they are seasonal, and not with us year round. That is a sad commentary for one of God’s little creatures.
OPINIONS:
It is rumored that the political group known as “Lafourche First” may be gearing up to appear on the scene again. It appears that they may appear just in time for next year’s Lafourche Parish Council and president elections. I guess we can say that “Lafourche First” is seasonal. They appear on the scene once every four years. We are trying to figure out the reason for their existence. Could they be classified as a nuisance? We seem to be happier when they are no longer around. We are extremely happy that they are seasonal, and only appear once every four years. It is alleged that “Lafourche First” is not proud of its accomplishments of the Fall elections of 2003. It is also alleged that they are not happy with Lafourche Parish President Charlotte Randolph, several of their endorsed council members, Sheriff and DA.
In my opinion, “Lafourche First” afford the tax payers a choice, GOOD GOVERNMENT as we are experiencing today(alleged corruption, selective arrests and prosecutions, more taxes, more fees for culverts, less services, etc.) or a local government for all of the people. If the tax payers of Lafourche want local government for all of the people, they may want to read between the lines when “Lafourche First” speak. In my opinion, if any of you decide to join “Lafourche First”, you may get to have a steak with the sheriff at the shooting range, have a cocktail on the parish credit card with George and Charlotte Randolph or attend a fund raiser for Cam Morvant at the Country Club.
Keep in touch, the love bugs are ready to leave and Lafourche First may soon be ready to appear.
