It is well known that the Lazy C and editor Lefty Lou are total hypocrites when to comes to matters and issues affecting our community. We have seen far too many times they support neglecting the “will of the voters” to move ahead with something in spite of public opposition.
But we also see when it is what they and the downtown mafia want, such as the Home Rule Charter and the recent ordinance proposed by County Commissioner Mielke, they fall back on “will of the voters” that passed the Home Rule Charter to oppose the ordinance that was defeated just yesterday.
But, over the years, that “will of the voters” did not seem to matter as repeatedly, voters rejected any proposal funding CRC light rail and BRT down Fourth Plain, just to mention two.
No, even though the CRC light rail is comatose, C-Tran continues pushing ahead, with the full support of the Lazy C and Lefty Lou, will of the voters be damned.
Of course, they twist the numerous rejections as voters reject only that specific means of funding, ignoring that in spite of promises, we have never been permitted a direct up or down vote.
And now that C-Tran has responded to the citizen lawsuit against BRT, claiming they are within their legal authority to move ahead, will we see Lefty swinging his dumbass coffee cup in the faces of the C-Tran Board of Directors, to entice them to abide by the will of the voters?
No, he wouldn’t dare.
Will of the voters is of no concern when it is the desire of the downtown mafia to move ahead. Like any other leftist, the ends justify the means, just so long as they get what they want, citizens and our will be damned!
Hypocrite doesn’t even begin to describe these low-lives’s fighting to make us just like Portland.
Will of the voters?
Only when it suits their purpose.
