The Help

 

All change in this country has come about as a result of people leaving their comfort zones and speaking out. The "Good Ole Boys" never expected interference from Beverly Marrero (D-TN). She represents a niche district where the school merger isn't top priority. She could have easily laid in the cut and got backdoor support on her pet projects. Like Congressman Cohen. Instead she sprang a leak. She asked a question I've had since Judge Mays made his ruling. How can you participate in a process while simultaneously planning it's demise? The thought of sabotage crosses my mind. Does that not automatically make the contract void? I am not an attorney, but I know that.

Mayor Keith McDonnell has openly had a seat in both arenas. Even now he says the AG Robert Cooper's opinion is of  no importance to him. The city of Bartlett still plans to go ahead as planned no matter what. He sounds like Kenneth Whalum now. He doesn't have a defence for his position. He has just started making stuff up as he goes. It has turned into a pi##ing contest for him. In other words forget the existing law. We have already experienced that in action with the Norris-Todd bill. Yesterday the suburban cities threw the city of Millington under the bus. The law limiting municipal school districts wasn't  passed last week. As I always predicted the classes are going to split. Everyone that started out with the fight won't finish. That was never the plan. They don't care about poor white children either.  That's where they crossed the line. They've rattled the cages of those not so far removed. Though they're doing better now. They remember the times. It's about time someone help them remember how it was. Hats off to the lady who wears the funny hats.
