Title: re: [Mpls] City Council Cops Out on Iraq
 what happened to Gary Schiff?!  I remember Gary's invovlement in the U of M Committee against the War [against Iraq] in 1990-91 when he was only 19.  He has gone conservative at too young an age.

I think this is a cheap shot. As a constituent in the 9th, I could not ask for better representation on the City Council than our CM Gary Schiff. He is honest, ethical, objective, and intelligent -- the last thing he is  -- i believe -- is conservative.

Like it or not, the objective of the Minneapolis City Council is to focus on Minneapolis specific business. If you want Gary's voice heard on national defense issues, elect him to congress.

Please don't make the illogical assumption that he has "gone conservative." Have you been watching meetings or listening to him lately? Just applaud the fact that he can recognize what business is appropriately addressed in which arena.
