Now yo..."is serve the county for no pay"<br /><br />Now you use a "red herring." Why not tell the good people what happened to Mr. Angle's pay during his time on county council, did he refuse to accept it??<br /><br />Please be honest, as we already know the answer.

What Angle wanted to do is serve the county for no pay and serve his school board for no pay. It is the exact opposite of what Pawlowski is doing.

You haters need to learn how to actually argue issues instead of making anonymous personal attacks. <br /><br />The Ron Angle argument is a red herring. The whole point with Ron was that he believed and still believes he can serve Council and the school board simultaneously. In other words, he was not running for some office, figuring he'll abandon another office once elected.<br /><br />I think it is a law that should be examined, thought so in 2010, and said so in 2010. Under my name. Not anonymously.

While that may have solved Ed's short term political problem, it is a weight around the necks of all Alkentown residents.<br /><br />If that's the Mayor's idea of progress or good financial planning I wish him luck.
