FIRST TOWN BOARD MEETING FOR NEW YEAR, THURS. 1/4/07, REVEALS AUTHENTIC "PUPPET MASTER"!
Guess who is the Puppet and who is the Puppet-Master?
Times up! Last nites board meeting proved beyond any
shadow of doubt just who is still running our local govern-
ment and who is being held-up by very tight strings to
play the Puppet role! You just won't believe what took
place. It is almost unbelievable, but true!
Our new puppet Mayor Lothers after being sworn-in
offered up a motion to appoint, Ken Thomas a newly
sworn-in alderman, as a new Vice-Mayor. Can you
say it went over like a "lead-balloon"?
Alexander the Pudmeister and former vice-mayor
stared in total disbelief at former interim-mayor Dugger.
Surely she (Lothers) must be joking? Ken Thomas
has not one shred of experience in local government?
Lothers asked for a second to her motion and Ken
Thomas seconded the motion to appoint himself as
vice-mayor? Totally WRONG against proper parlia-
mentary procedure! How embarrassing? Her first
motion as a new mayor and she had to ask Thomas
himself to second the motion to appoint himself as
the new vice-mayor? DOES ANYONE KNOW ANY-
THING ABOUT PARLIAMENTARY PROCESS?
NOTESTINE TOWN MAYOR IGNORED IT?
NO SUPPORT for new mayor and her creditability
is in serious question? Let's just "make-it-up" as
we go! Nobody attends the meetings so who cares?
Alexander offered up his opinion about Thomas' lack
of experience and how important it was to have a
vice-mayor with some experience in local government.
Dugger agreed with Alexander's opinion.
Lothers' motion for Thomas as vice-mayor was
voted down! So she asked the board what to do
now? Alexander quickly offered up another motion
for Dugger as vice-mayor. And GET THIS...Dugger
SECONDED THE MOTION TO ELECT HIMSELF
VICE-Mayor. Correct Parliamentary procedure
doesn't permit this, but SO WHAT Dugger has
done it before and nobody complained. So why not
do it again...over and over? Where oh where is our
town counsel?
Vote was called for and Alexander the Pudmeister
voted yes, Thomas yes and Lothers who by now
saw the "hidden ultimatum" you do exactly what
we tell you to do. Nothing more, nothing less!
Yes, Lothers voted for Dugger as Vice-Mayor.
Hello local voters! Welcome to Disney-World!
Last nite our new puppet-mayor tried to do
something "on-her-own" without consulting
with Dugger and Alexander. She received a
very strong and somewhat painful "jerk" on
her puppet-strings. "Next time you check with
us before you do anything...period." This was
the beginning and end of her reign as an in-
dependent mayor.
The blog predicted this would happen! But
so soon? Unbelievable? Yet true! Attention
all those that voted...doesn't matter for who?
Four more years of monthly "PUPPET-PLAYS"
featuring our vice-mayor as the mayor
behind the mayor as puppet-meister. And
our new puppet-mayor Lady Beth. It just
can't get any worse than this.

Where was town counsel on Dugger seconding himself? Do we have a third puppet? Can't you just hear Nolestine's reply "This is highly irregular hahaha but I suppose it's alright."
I agree that Ken Thomas has no experience to be a vice-mayor but I think he will be a good alderman. One alderman needs to grow up and quit rolling his eyes, huffing and puffing like some animal, and shrugging his shoulders. He needs to admit defeat and learn to play fair. What a disappointment he is!
I agree that Mr Alexander needs to understand that he has been passed over for vice mayor and now needs to get over it since he was such a big supporter of her. He truly is a dfisappointment.
Maybe, Mister anonymous @2:50 AND
wrgoin blog person you were NOT at
meeting and only "heard" what occured.
Ken Thomas also seconded himself; first as an indication that he would be willing to serve and also to "put nomination up for a vote" (as did T. Dugger.)
Hope that clarifies that portion of meeting.
