Commissioners want special privileges

I have always dreamed of a vacation in Hawaii, or maybe anywhere besides Wal-Mart. The problem with going to Wal-Mart is it's usually to buy medicine. After that, it's to the grocery store, or the gas station for liquid gold. I also pay my taxes in full by the January deadline.

Since I am on a very limited income, I am wondering which commissioner's job I would like to have. Oh, I forget. I don't have a choice; I have to run against one in my district. Oh. Skip, I guess I can't have your job or Bruce Davis'.

So, you good commissioners who wish to give your raise to charity, I would like to recommend a great one, the best one I know. It's called Me. I also think you should pay your taxes by the deadline, too, and not expect any special privileges.

Same ol', same ol', Harriette. The "Elite" gets "lei'd" while we, the peons, get screwed!

This argument is really kind of out of place as not only the bible but Jesus Himself said:
Mat 5:34 But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne:
Mat 5:35 Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.
Mat 5:36 Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.
Mat 5:37 But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.

Ms.Lee, If I were you I would not publish the fact that you have enough money to buy medicine. Skip & co. might get wind of it.
