Gary Schiff's vote for the Access Project does not surprise me. My
interactions with him years ago (he was older than 18 at that time), displayed a
person solely concerned about his own political gain and status.
Barb Johnson, Colvin Roy, Paul Ostrow, Barrett Lane-- again no surprise.
You can count on the very conservative and big-business associated ones to
consistently come down on the side of business interests.
What is distressing to me are the elected officials that campaign on
promises of "representing the interests of the people", being against buying
stadiums with taxpayer's money for billionaires, and promising change from the old
corrupt ways---
and then they turn around and do the exact opposite -- with the
audacity to rationalize, twist their wording, creating semantic arguments about why
they really did not break any promises.
