I've only been in Seattle for 6 years, but in those six years Sims has only been a cancer in Seattle politics. Maybe he used to be a responsible adult before then and worked to improve the city, I don't know. Every time he's on KUOW taking calls from people, he is the most childish, spiteful political figure I've had the displeasure of hearing. I don't know how he came by his current position, but the guy needs to go back under the rock he crawled out from. What an ass.

Sadly, he just seems to keep slipping into a paranoid state. Look how many staff have left...and who is still left.

Ron Sims is the George Bush of King County. Everything he touches turns sour. Look at animal control, elections, and his third attempt to update the computer systems. He's even managed to squander the county's AAA bond rating and turned it into a $100 million deficit. He favors cronyism and goes after anyone that publicly disagrees with him. Anyone but Ron in 2009. Someone, anyone qualified, please run against our collective mistake. We deserve who we get, and we've had our own personal George Bush right here in Seattle.

Ron Sims = George Bush.

Because animals in captivity should have more rights then humans in captivity, guilty or innocent.

Ron, this is just getting embarrassing. Please, please, please stop it. Maybe it's time to think about retiring, hmm?

He's in the bunker, for sure.

How does this help cut the runaway county police/jail spending that is bankrupting the county?

Look at the pie chart for 1970, 1980, 1990, 2000, and now 2008 - tell me what you see.

It ain't pet patrols busting our budget - it's the freakin' cops wasting our tax dollars on pot busts and letting the white collar criminals walk free and never pay their fines.
