From today’s Post story about the administration new communications strategy I was struck by this quote…
One thing for sure that people want is for us to have honest, open debate," said senior adviser David Axelrod.
..mostly because it echoed something I wrote in a letter to my local state representatives after many of my neighbors went apoplectic about the lack of snow removal around here after last week’s big storms.
I urge you to have honest and frank discussions with your constituents about how your vision for our communities informs your decisions, the cost of services and how the tax structure can be used to address our needs.
I’d like to see just one Democrat have the guts to have an honest discussion with folks about what a new tax structure could mean for our standard of living. The party is petrified of the subject.
