There's ten minutes of my life I will never get back...

Every time Char-Lie says "I" -- Stand up, do a shot, and shout: "You lie!"
Every time Nutsy says "sustainably" -- Tip over a couch, chug a Schmidts, go outside and yell: "If my time and your will permits, I'll honor that space and culture!"

My rules are: think about one of these guys being mayor for four years, go get a stiff drink.

"If my time and your will permits, I'll honor that space and culture."
Mojo, way to go. Way to recognize. That line from Jefferson's apology email for the groin thing, should live on as one of the all-time "I'm a d-bag" political quotes in history. It is Jefferson Smith at his best. He always says that he has led an "imperfect life." (Yeah, no kidding.) And yet, there is a perfection to this line that is transcendent.
13 words. I challenge any politician in the world to pack that much bullsh*t into 13 words.

Nutsy was channeling Al Gore: too much false bravado, and his lips were too close to the mic. At least it sounded like that on the livestream from the O.
Char-lie gave you a near shoutout: "some people say I was living in Camas, but I never lived in Camas, I was in Stevenson, WA."
If the choice comes down to who is the more progressive of the two: Nutsy wins.
Then he'll dig up the pavement in front of Jack's house for the next 6 months.

"Compassionate conservative."
There you go, Bill. Did it in 2.

Oh, that explains things.

Every time Nutsy says "sustainably" -- ..........
Every time I think about our elections, national, and then local with vested interests propping up these two, plus the behavioral control aspects in our community, I think of when are people going to say enough is enough!
