  1. I cannot believe how corrupt the entrenched criminals in public office are. They make Saddam Hussein and his merry men look like Captain America in comparison.

    When is the Marshall going to clean up and rid this town of such filth?

  3. I thought if you were "registered" to vote....it meant you are qualified to vote!? Doesn't seem right that the council is able to postpone swearing in the people that were voted in....to "check, if registered voters, are allowed to vote" Surely drivers lic. etc. are showed when you sign up to vote. I know I had to show ID before I was allowed to register to vote.
