Shoreline Caucus

In the ongoing free-for-all for Pt. Wells tax revenues, Woodway pitches smaller plan for Point Wells.

First they will stack and pack us in mixed use towers in Town Center, all in the name of the Agenda 21 euphemism, Growth Management. Only after that mission is accomplished will they proceed to trot out the ‘research’ on the effects of second-hand smoke in apartment buildings, which they will use to justify an ordinance for ‘tobacco-free high-density housing’.

Former US Senator Slade Gorton raised an interesting question last week about the impact of openness in government on the historical record, particularly for the Presidency. Sen.

Support the presidential candidate you believe in, though the heavens fall.

“It was the first Republican President, Abraham Lincoln, who said the role of government is to do for the people what they cannot do better for themselves.”

–President Barack Obama, May 1, 2010, University of Michigan Commencement Address.

And the corollary to this sage maxim by our 16th president is:

Do not do for the people what they can do better for themselves.
