I say that McCune would have had to either lie about the exchange between Evans and Camp, or only heard two or three words, and then her mind made the rest up. It was obvious that Camp and Evans knew each other, and appeared they were friends. I don't like to talk about people, but McCune did put herself "out there". McCune seems like the type that would like to be the Belle Of The Ball, but has little going for herself. She seems to have very little going for her in the brains or common sense department, for sure.....SCOOTERAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10635442.post-82429752058400786742011-01-28T13:39:57.282-06:002011-01-28T13:39:57.282-06:00Maybe McCune can't seem to hypnotize folks int...Maybe McCune can't seem to hypnotize folks into her way of thinking. While Councilwoman Evans and others council members went into the area outside the chambers, the much of the mayor's staff was out there as well. Hinote, Hester, Compton, etc. were milling about. Hinote in particular was making pointed comments to citizens as well, even making fun of the crowd that went outside the building to regularly smoke. Is that any way for a deputy mayor to act. Former deputy mayor Bill Phillips sure wouldn't have done that. But if Phillips were still in the mayor's office, none of this mess would have happened.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10635442.post-28416048264674927292011-01-25T12:18:19.094-06:002011-01-25T12:18:19.094-06:00Hizzoner is now using citizens to smear CM Evans. ...Hizzoner is now using citizens to smear CM Evans. He realizes that she continues to be a threat to him and deep down fears that she will run for mayor. He is ensuring that he has documented dirt against Evans for his re-election literature. I am waiting for the press conference by Dean on channel 3 to proclaim that he is protecting the citizens' right to free speech. It is free tv time for him and it smears Emily Evans.<br /><br />I am sure this citizen took a statement between two people totally out of context and then added a few embellishments for flavor. She was probably encouraged, if not aided, by CM Megan Barry and Rich Riebeling.<br /><br />Dean's push now is to discredit those who would oppose him. He has no intention of playing fair.<br /><br />Please tell Ms. McCune to watch more council meetings. CMs come and go out that way all of the time.<br /><br />Emily Evans doesn't have to cover up anything. Unlike Mayor Dean, she will honestly tell you up front how she feels. I just wish more CMs had the courage to do the same, especially the Council-At-Large members who seem to pretty much rubber stamp everything out of the mayor's office because "that's the way we have always done it."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10635442.post-3518555186768584512011-01-25T09:48:45.408-06:002011-01-25T09:48:45.408-06:00IMO I was discreet to criticize Ms. McCune's s...IMO I was discreet to criticize Ms. McCune's statements about her opponents without reference to her person. It is also worth noting that all of her statements are public, not private.<br /><br />But if someone wants to put my analysis on the same ad hominem plane as Ms. McCune openly impugning those who disagree with her as "knuckle-draggers," then I guess I have no other reply to make.S-townMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05948307051485318061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10635442.post-18315253222823324142011-01-25T09:20:28.738-06:002011-01-25T09:20:28.738-06:00Mr. Byrd,

Had Council Lady Evans stayed in her seat or on her side of the council chambers this would have never happened. I didn't see any other council member come over to the public side of the chamber during the public hearing to speak with an individual except for Evans. I enjoy reading your blogs when you are fair and reasonable but I'm disappointed that you would go after a private citizen who has a legitimate claim. Whether she took what was said by Evans out of context is for the Legal Department to decide. However the incident did happen and you should respect the process for which the complaint will go through. Have a great day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10635442.post-57759144423902380772011-01-25T01:13:06.882-06:002011-01-25T01:13:06.882-06:00Thanks for the link to the City Paper.

Ironic she is insistent the economic numbers don't add up despite the Mayor's confirmation of them (via Dozier emails).<br /><br />The only "relic" that we need to get rid of is Ms. McCune and her prejudiced/racist/biased/discriminatory/elitist way of viewing the world. <br /><br />Ms. McCune - Please go crawl back under the rock from which you came. Unless of course, you want to save the Fairgrounds, in which case, keep running your trap.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
