What a Bird!

You're not going to believe this. Oh, on second thought, it's news from St. Marys City Council, so you probably will. At last night's city council meeting, swashbuckling Councilman Airrole Flymflam Bird got his buddy, Councilman Larry Johnson, to make a motion that the City of St. Marys taxpayers re-imburse Councilman Bird for his legal fees that he had to pay attorney Jim Stein to get him out of rightful charges of conflict-of-interest for voting on matters effecting his business at the airport. The motion died for lack of a second. Hell, I'm surprised Bird didn't argue that there would have been no problem with him seconding the motion. After the council was buffaloed by Stein out of the censure Bird so richly deserved, he then went on to speak and vote on matters concerning his other business (and apparent other reason for running), the golf cart sales and rental operation. This Bird should have been a no termer, but certainly a one-termer.
