Sour Grapes

The day after the elections. These people who were supporting the losing candidates, are still crying foul and making excuses. No one has called me out specifically, but they've made general statements about Herenton supporters. Thank God, the people weren't fooled by the fast talking and play on words. What these people are doing is quietly eating crow. For those who want to claim "it doesn't make them any difference". Like hell it doesn't. Something has happened to make them so bitter. Maybe it's the taste of sour grapes. Look at what one of them said, in the letter below.

Dear #####,

I want to clear up a comment that I made regarding the Mayor of any city and crime, this morning {Bobby's show}.

It has been disturbing to me over the last few weeks to hear the battle between Herenton supporters vs. non- supporters. If the non-supporters of this administration mention crime in this city being a part of the Mayor's responsibility, the supporters will say, "The Mayor can't stop no crime in this city. or He can't stop people from shooting each other, domestic violence or things like that." This is very true. We should all understand that neither the Mayor, the police, nor the District Attorney can do anything about random crime in any city. And I think folks know very well that, that isn't what's meant.

It is obvious that it has to be a part of the Mayor of any city's job description to be a part of the verbal and administrative communication with the Director of the Police departments, as well as implementing laws and legislation with law makers to create ways to curtail crime in their cities. If it wasn't, then why would what the Mayor plans to do about crime be, not only a part of his platform, but his opponents as well?


She is trying to be condescending, she knows already that you don't agree with what she said. Why would she want to know what we think about what she said? She's trying to belittle what we think. I've heard what her and others like her have said, and it requires no explanation. She is trying to hold Herenton responsible for something he can't control. I'm starting to agree with one of my friends about who voted for Carol Chumney.

These people kill me with their clouding of the issues and doubletalk. If we all know what they mean, then the subject should be closed. Now we want to bring up his job description, without considering the duties of others involved. The Mayor doesn't control legislation. The reason it's on his platform is because the uninformed electorate ask the questions. As a result they have displaced anger, like they do with most things.
