Larry Lewis, meet Jeff Melcher, and vice versa; enjoy each other

You will have fun being each other’s Tar Baby with me gone.

Jeff gets to be even more obnoxious, and with one less target for his obnoxiousness, it should be even more focused.

Jeff, I would actually give money to TIGER for May electoral purposes, but not with you around on it. I’d shake hands with Hitler, Hussein or Tommy Tompkins first. I hope a CREDIBLE opponent for the next bond issue arises; if not, I’ve written enough about the school district that sensible people won’t vote for a bond anyway.

And, most the people I’ve said goodbyes to, or talked to about the school district, are also looking for that same sort of credible opposition. And, it isn’t just me; they don’t include you there either.

(Oh, good luck with getting an opponent for Carolyn; neither city nor school board seats in North Lanc have been opposed since I’ve been here, and I think since the start of single-member districts.)

Or, if you really get tired of tangling with Larry, or miss semi-slanderous and idiotic, uninformed sniping at me, you can go ahead and demonstrate just how clear-thinking you are by following through on the idea of enlisting and going over to Iraq.

(Beloved Leader is still pimping his idea of a “surge,” so warm bodies are wanted.)

Larry, meanwhile, gets to continue to try salesmanship with the mask of faith-based leadership being more exposed.

Of course, even with it being on record now that the school board knows about Richard Gonzales, and should ask questions about Lewis’ hiring decisions elsewhere, it probably won’t.

Sorry, Larry, and Nannette and the rest of the school board. Faith-based talk can’t change facts through miracles, and Fortune 500 salesmanship can’t gloss over them.

Nor does blaming problems on the small, small portion of the district that includes the city of Dallas solve anything.

Fortunately, Tommy didn’t get The Preserve passed, or Lancaster really would be in trouble.
