In watching Walgreen's current TV commercials, we are given a glimpse of life in the town of Perfect. The commercial goes on to claim because we live nowhere near Perfect, it's good to have Walgreen's nearby.
Apparently, life is so perfect in Waterville, ME their City Council has no legitimate business to attend to and can use its time to play debate club. Isn't too bad Minneapolis has legitimate City Council business it must attend to? On another note, just a personal observation on this whole anti-war resolution business that I wasn't going to bring back up but others won't let rest. It was previously mentioned by others how, in the Vietnam era, the anti-war movement was brought directly to the people. Why the change now? Is it because the anti-war people can't successfully plead their case to the American public and must resort to trying to "sneak it by"? It seems a lot like the same way developers got their TIF districts and other subsidies: it's a lot easier to convince just 7 Council Members and 1 Mayor than to have to convince an entire city of people.
