Comments on: County officials refuse to explain how taxpayer money is specifically used at MCEDD http://marioncountyinformer.com/2010/07/27/county-officials-refuse-to-say-how-taxpayer-money-is-specifically-used-at-mcedd/ Online news for Columbia and Marion County, Mississippi Fri, 13 Aug 2010 18:12:15 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: formerly known as concerned http://marioncountyinformer.com/2010/07/27/county-officials-refuse-to-say-how-taxpayer-money-is-specifically-used-at-mcedd/comment-page-1/#comment-11728 formerly known as concerned Mon, 02 Aug 2010 19:29:06 +0000 http://marioncountyinformer.com/?p=6747#comment-11728 Peace to you. I am so glad Josh let's us agree to disagree here. I think you'll find that I generally attack issues instead of people. That's just me, though. I'm big enough (and certainly old enough) to know that when someone hurls a personal insult my way, I tend to see the insult rather than the inderlying issue----momentarily. My goal is to someday be every bit as diplomatic as evil twin. Thanks again twin for calling me out in such a kind way. Peace to you.

The right to be able to lend voice to cause is paramount though and I've learned and changed over my life by listening to people I originally disagreed with. Thank you founders of America for making the First Ammendment the First Ammendment!

I wrote a response but it's still pending approval about a week later. I'm assuming it got lost in the shuffle and I'd love to have it posted but you supported my position admirably. It may be pending because I entered a last line soliciting financial support for MarionCountyInformer. Thank you evil twin. I wrote a response but it’s still pending approval about a week later.

Why don't you quit signing petitions and attending rallies and go to city hall and review the expenditures? The world doesn't need anymore behind the scenes people. It needs courageous, forthright and intelligent people who are willing to learn the parameters and make reasonable requests. Why try to reinvent the wheel? In summary, the information for which your asking is there. Now go get it. Just saying. Claims paid are public record.

And it makes me suspicious of just what kind of a grudge you are holding against other citizens who want to be politically active by speaking out on whatever they feel needs changing. It also makes you look a little one dimensional. I believe that New Voice of Reason was referring to not only this MCEDD issue, but the fact that people all over the country are starting to take notice and fight back against injustice. In no way did I take that to mean that Josh has not done an outstanding job in bringing to light things we all should have been aware of already. And I think New Voice of Reason would be the first one to give Josh praise for that. So please quit looking for opportunities to get off the subject by starting something when there's nothing there.
