<DIV>Hansen,</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Who are you talking to? Because obviously you aren't responding to any of the points I made. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>First, I was not complaining about the inactions of the Mayor. I was complaining about the inactions of the City Council. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Second, the legalities of when, who, and how and city council member is or isn't appointed is not what was at issue, but rather the intent behind the delay. It isn't a matter or legality, it is a matter of ethics and putting the interests of the people above and beyond the interests of the political gains of its individual members. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Everyday that Moscow goes without a representative fulfilling the duties and obligations of an elected office it is a hindrance to the city and the people. To allow that to continue needlessly for the political advance of office holder A, B, and C, is unethical in my opinion. You might
be fine with that type of behavior, I am not. I am not discussing the legality of the right to be an asshole to the people you are suppose to serve, just the ethics of it. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Since you seemed so confused, I will clarify for you; I do not believe the mayor acted wrongly, but the city council. Nor do I believe a city, state, or federal law was violated. I just think what they did was unethical, not illegal. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Best,</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Donovan</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><BR><B><I>Tom Hansen <thansen@moscow.com></I></B> wrote:</DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid"> <META content="Microsoft Word 11 (filtered medium)" name=Generator> <STYLE> v\:* {behavior:url(#default#VML);} o\:* {behavior:url(#default#VML);} w\:* {behavior:url(#default#VML);} .shape {behavior:url(#default#VML);} </STYLE> <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns =
