Great new feature!

Regarding MCSO being "back in the black", the article itself points out that this was accomplished by major and continuing neglect of basic Sheriff's Office responsibilities (major understaffing of detention officers and deputies, and cancellation of prisoner transport services), along with those mysterious cookie-jar funds "which Sheriff Joe Arpaio said he kept on hand in case of emergency because he said he knew that the county likely couldn't approve supplemental funding in a tight budget year". (It would be nice to know the size of these specially applied funds, as well as their source.)

Don't forget also the fact that at the time MCSO was funding junkets to and from Honduras, their supply department was turning down all kinds of basic equipment requests made by its own personnel, from computers to paper clips. (Mr. Lemons or other New Times staff had at one time posted an online copy of an MCSO memo detailing the need for such extreme measures, but I'm having difficulty finding it. Can someone provide a hyperlink?)

Hot Links -- great idea! There is so much happening and this will give the public a place to get the real scoop on what the officials are up to. Great public service -- keep up the good work.

In the anti-recall commercial for Phil Gordon was a killer idea. And I believe this is paying off and its portraying to be of a great benefit to the mayor. I said in another post that Jim Williams and Anna Gaines has until Aug. 28 deadline. And time is running out! The clock is ticking! Its a countdown to their doomsday! The is the day when the mayor will truimph in flawless victory! For the people and for the Americans! Its foretold and foreseen!
The article also states that Anna Gaines would not give out how many signatures they've acquired thus far. You know what that means??? It means that they don't have that many signatures or worst yet, THEY DON'T HAVE ANY!! Which is why she could not give an estimate.
Come this Aug. 28 it would be a blast, just wait and see that I'm right that they will never achieve their sorry goal of recalling the toughest mayor in P-town!!

What a bunch of pathetic losers they are!

I hope Jim Williams have that bottle of whiskey ready and drink away! I would be happy to buy him another round!
