Cat, you're right not to accept the make-believe mayor's false claims and bluster.
He is somehow arguing that children "pay taxes" when their parents can't afford "higher quality goods and services."
That is such a defective idea that I won't even waste time trying to address it.
He also wants to withhold funding to the school department based on nothing more than conspiracy theories and delusional ideas.
He thinks another audit -- at the city's expense, of course -- will show something different from what every annual audit, conducted by the same independent firm that reviews the city's books, has shown.
He insists on accusing the school committee of "extortion" after the WTU illegally shut down schools in the middle of contract negotiations.
And he thinks that not paying the school budget -- which would result in teacher salaries and benefits not being paid, increasing the likelihood and number of legal actions against the city -- is somehow a preferred strategy.
As with so many of his ideas, this is wrong. He is not proving anything except his defects as a candidate and his complete inability to restrain himself from making a humiliating spectacle of himself.
So, Cat, keep up the good work in exposing the make-believe mayor for the disgrace of a candidate that he is. I look forward to joining you and thousands of honest, taxpaying voters in rejecting his candidacy again on Sept. 12.
