... according to Northampton County Council Prez Ron Angle. He claimed, at the end of a Finance Committee meeting yesterday, that Bethlehem School Board President Loretta Leeson had called and is willing to talk, but not until next week.
I wonder if she'll be limited to three minutes.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
Bethlehem School Board President Loretta Leeson had called and is willing to talk,
ReplyDeleteSure hope she only gets 3 minutes!
Bully.
The folks Leeson orderd to speak only 3 minutes at recent school board meeting should attend this meeting and sit there with stop watches, glaring.
ReplyDeleteIt occured to me that if BASD hadn't been so hot to trot on their own "Swaptions" mayne they wouldn't be in such a financial pickle.
ReplyDeleteEh, the nonsense about Leeson just takes away from the fact that TIFs shouldn't be financing non-profit ventures.
ReplyDeleteIn these financial times, it's hard to argue for the school district or any taxing body to do so.
11:34 is spot on.
ReplyDeleteI find it utterly amazing how NON qualified neophytes like Leeson and Angle sit on these Boards and have the power to make decisions that impact the taxpayers coffers by millions. It is scary that someone can put a sign up in their yard and go knock door to door and be voted in to make these decisions. Anyway, I guess I should look toward Washington DC and that will answer my question.
ReplyDeleteNothing is stopping "qualified" people from running for these offices. The thing that does stop them is doing something for nothing and taking an awful lot of crap. You should be thankful someone is willing to do it at all.
ReplyDeleteEverybody is an expert from afar...why would anyone want to be in office and take the abuse that Angle and Leeson take ? They are only doing what they think is right..gimme a break!
