Ok, now can you tell me what happened to the 200 daily Publicola pro-tunnel commenters?

Was it all the same guy?

And why did Joe Szllgsgzy and others disappear off the cyber map?

Who funded those bogeys?

Thank God someone interferes with our worthless mayor. Go Richard.

You should buy him a Golden Etch-Sketch.

It might jog his memory ...

Remove funny bone.

Wow, Dominic still beating the dead horse about the tunnel.

I've worked with City Council members since the mid-1990's. Conlin has been one of the best. Smart, humble, hard working, and quietly effective.

Without Richard we'd still have the Teen Dance Ordinance.

I don't agree with anyone on everything. That should never be anyone's standard.

Dom - your attempted take downs of Conlin are dumb. You're usually better than that. Get some new material.

@6 you mean the Tunnel that will have to have $10 each way tolls just to break even?

That Gold Plated Vanity Tunnel?

The one that, if we had an earthquake similar to the one in Mexico City, would have resulted in automatic shut downs of power that result in seven gates sealing in trapped motorists while 9 foot waves inundate the air intake valves?

Oh. Yeah. That's such a ... keen ... idea.

if you like zombies.

This is such a cheap shot. There are plenty of valid reasons to dislike Conlin, but it is totally unfair and inaccurate to accuse him of being a do-nothing because he wasn't in his office when you visited. Maybe he was in a meeting? Maybe he was representing the city at regional boards, like PSRC or Sound Transit? Maybe he was doing the business of government without unnecessary drama and fanfare?

There are plenty of absent and useless elected officials, but Conlin shows up and knows his shit whether you agree with him or not.

Your gumshoe skills would be better spent reporting on whatever the hell the King County Council does or visiting several other Seattle city council members who are actually useless. For instance, you might have trouble finding Sally Bagshaw because she's easily mistaken for a telephone pole.

This is adorable, and reminds me of visiting Facebook pages of one's exes.

Speaking of Seattle...in 1973:

@1 We won. Generally after you win the war you stop the fighting.

There are journalists and ax-grinders. You can't be both.

@12 or they stop paying the astroturfers.

No pay, no post.

Please wait...
