So, don't get you ho's all up in a row. But, farmer stands vs. Costco (and WalMart, and SafeWay) now that's a conflict of interest. Unless you can prove me wrong. But, just ask Pombo about his farm. E-I-E-I-O - SantaClause Fri, 28 Dec 2007 18:43:03 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/12878/2244/#comment-28636 Someone, please ask Tom Benigno to run? Then we can get him outta here and get some development going... Otherwise, there is too much blocking of politicians going on in this town. When that happens... nothing gets done. Don't have anything else against the guy, but I wouldn't vote for a farmer to help develop a city. Farmers make good Presidents though. Just ask Jimmy Carter. ;) That's my thought. - SantaClause Fri, 28 Dec 2007 18:39:11 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/12878/2244/#comment-28635 Ya right. A mathematician who knows about wind-bags. Should get a job in the Silicon Valley, but they don't need the windbag. The Altimont WindFarms don't really make money or enough energy to make a difference. Just ask Pombo. - SantaClause Fri, 28 Dec 2007 18:34:46 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/12878/2244/#comment-28624 We can all be thankful we have such a great Congressman in our fine Rep Jerry McNerney. We can all count on Jerry to work hard for us all in Wash D.C. and here in our district. Thank you Jerry McNerney for all your work in 2007 - Chet Fri, 28 Dec 2007 17:54:56 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/12878/2244/#comment-28611 Problems? you bet. [quote]Unfortunately, the problem isn’t coming from over the hill, that mythical place that takes the blame for so many issues here. It’s coming from home, from parents who don’t care, from media that substitutes for friends, from a community that doesn’t provide alternatives for its youth.[/quote] This problem is being addressed, in spite of the opposition to Ives and the City Council. The city of Tracy doesn't need another turnover to slow the progress down. What they need is a City Council that will continue the fight. - SusieC Fri, 28 Dec 2007 16:15:21 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/12878/2244/#comment-28607 The council recently decided not to build a youth sports park at the Shulte Road antenna farm. The reopening of the Grand Theater (so what if that Greek lady helped out a little bit). New City Hall. ... With more to come in 2008... So stop the incessant bitching and moaning. - DougF Fri, 28 Dec 2007 15:56:46 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/12878/2244/#comment-28606 In 2008, will somebody please start the recall process for Tucker, or please stop talking about it. http://www.newhomebuyer.org/tracyplanet/recall/index.htm - Democracy Now Fri, 28 Dec 2007 15:56:21 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/12878/2244/#comment-28605 SDRK, Left in the dust? [quote]This past year included a number of success stories.[/quote] But, you missed the boat: [url]http://tracypress.com/content/view/12871/2244/[/url] - LeroyR Fri, 28 Dec 2007 15:49:25 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/12878/2244/#comment-28604 ETFM'08, Too thin. Now, I question your intelligence and good judgment. So, how is it that you can decide that for us. Thanks for the shameless plug, though! - LeftWingNewsPapers Fri, 28 Dec 2007 15:40:50 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/12878/2244/#comment-28603 Are we giving parting shots for 2007 here? Is that what I am to understand? If so, your paper could use some balance. Lose the bias in 2008. Just my humble opinion. - LeftWingNewsPapers Fri, 28 Dec 2007 15:34:34 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/12878/2244/#comment-28602 No he didn't forget. That is why he said, "Keep up the good work Mendelson". - TomHarper Fri, 28 Dec 2007 15:28:32 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/12878/2244/#comment-28601 In 2007, only Tolbert has shown that she makes intelligent decisions. Let's make 2008 the year we successfully recall Tucker, and vote Ives out of office. That will be a victory for democracy. - Elect Tolbert for Mayor 2008 Fri, 28 Dec 2007 15:26:45 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/12878/2244/#comment-28600 Had to read it again? Why they say that the memory is the first to go. You forgot all the crap this year. That's all. - BobBefyc Fri, 28 Dec 2007 15:21:48 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/12878/2244/#comment-28599 But, my guess is that he will be another no-show at next month's meeting. - BI Fri, 28 Dec 2007 15:19:09 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/12878/2244/#comment-28598 Brent, Someone left you a list of questions... Do you want to take that or do you want me to get it? [quote]What has he accomplished. He certaintly has not unified the council. He hasnt given us a sports park after 15 years on the council. He is AKT's waterboy as Evelyn Tolbert has said. He told his employer LLNL to offer us a college in exchange for the Biolab. He didnt even tell us that LLNL had an anthrax shipment that opened up in the mail before the lab started bragging about its excellent safety record. He didnt oppose his employer detonating depleted uranium all over us. He voted on projects that his consulting firm had done work for. Do I need to go on or is that enough for you Brent Ives fans. Keep up the good work Mendelson you know your doing a good job when the good old boys start defending the mayor even though you didnt blame him for the gang problems or the sorry location for a sport park or any other of the multiple probelms he has created. Lets not forget about good old Dan Hobbs at the end only the mayor wanted to keep him. Vote Tolbert for Mayor in 2008...[/quote] Let me know. I'd love to give it to him. - BI Fri, 28 Dec 2007 15:17:46 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/12878/2244/#comment-28597 I sure miss Pombo. Too much naysaying this year: "developers got 'em in their back pockets". Here we go again! Sigh! - Sigh Fri, 28 Dec 2007 15:15:13 +0100
