Energy Security from Shale Gas? Think Again...With Dr. Anthony Ingraffea

Grand Prairie, TX Mayoral Race and Others ~ May 11, 2013

Will You Vote for These Relationships for the New Grand Prairie, TX City Council?

Will You Cast Your Mayoral Vote for the Long-Serving Councilman, Ron Jensen, Who Reportedly Signed the First Shale Gas Mineral Lease in Town (With Chesapeake)?  Many may not realize that Mr. Jensen Must Recuse Himself on Most Every Gas Drilling Issue.

Does It Matter that Former City Councilman 

 Mark Hepworth (on January 18, 2011) 

Shocked Many of Us 

When He Proposed Maintaining  Protected Use Setbacks for Gas Drilling 

at 500 Feet from Homes, Schools and 

All Places Where People Live and Work? 

(We were there. We recommended 1,00o Feet.  
We absolutely know how that vote went down.)

Who Would/Will You Vote For? Or will you Abstain from Voting Like Mr. Jensen?

Your Call. Your Vote.

Who Will Handle Her Best?

There's a Decision To Be Made.

Potential Hazards (HC) Lie Ahead.

It's Clear Where We Stand.

And the Winner Is ~ Mayor Dr. Bob Cluck is the Best of the Worst in North Texas!

We don't fully understand all the upset about bike trails by these Arlington, TX residents.   

But we do understand being upset by time limitations during Public Meetings.  

Any North Texas Mayor who proclaims, 
"I'll Smile If I Want To!"   
deserves the Prize and All the Kudos.

Therefore, Mayor Cluck is the Winner! Hands Down.

Beginning in the summer of 2011, it seems the Arlington, Texas City Council and especially the Mayor went off the tracks. Click on over to the Fishcreek Monitor to see some more of that derailment. In the world of public administration, this is probably a textbook version of what you don't want to happen. But it did. And it's a lesson in politics. People like to be heard no matter what their viewpoints. If politicians in America don't want to listen, maybe they need to do something else. Or move to another country.

If you haven't already voted early, be sure to vote this Saturday, May 11, 2013!  In Texas, it's now one of the few things we own that can't be taken by private industry via eminent domain.  

Hold on to it with your dear life. 

Vote!

Chairman Smitherman Tweets Bag of Deer Pellets Made in West, TX

Editor's Comment:  

We have no idea how tweeting a picture of a bag of deer pellets to the "Central Texas Sportsman" is supposed to provide any kind of comfort and help to fellow Texans in West, TX ~  following the catastrophic explosion that killed at least 14 first responders on Wednesday night. 

Here's the Tweet that Chairman Smitherman probably won't be making.
