28. To anyone who finds themselves in a public forum....
....facing elected officials over this issue, here's a sure fire way to get their attention. Remember to always point out that you are there as a member of the public and that they're there as a public servant! Ask them what part of that relationship is it that they don't understand! Feel free to remind them that they are there to represent YOU and if they don't represent what the people want THEY WILL BE REPLACED! (You want to see sweat?) Let them know in no uncertain terms that they called the meeting supposedly to get public comment, well damn it, THE PUBLIC HAS SPOKEN! Now go back and do your job or we'll file suit to have you removed from office BEFORE the next election! :evilgrin:
It doesn't matter what they're excuses are, the fact remains, THEY ARE PUBLIC SERVANTS THERE TO SERVE YOU. NOTHING MORE!
