Where Has the Honor Gone? Maybe There Never Was Any Honor

How are we supposed to trust our locally elected officials?

Our founding fathers knew what it meant to serve the people first with honor and did not serve in hopes of kickbacks or political favors.

 

In 2013, I am distraught by the lack of honor shown by our public servants. I think of our County Executive yelling at senior citizens in front of small school children. What a disturbing display of childish behavior by Mr. Kamanetz. Council members at the April 15th meeting stated that they had to pass the storm water management fee or face budget cuts from the state. Thank you Martin O'Malley for signing an anti-bullying law after you bullied the Baltimore County Council into signing what you demanded to be signed.

Baltimore County had councilman Todd Huff arrested for driving a county vehicle drunk. And just how was he allowed the privilege of driving a county vehicle when he already had a DUI on his driving record?

Then we have Johnny Olszewski Sr. that promised the sale of the North Point Government Center would be stopped if it lacked community support. The proposals are in and they are not acceptable. Dundalk keeps hearing that the sale is a done deal. Johnny, do you realize that they are saying that because people from your own community do not believe you? You can still do the right and honorable thing.  Johnny I ask, do you know where your honor is? Now would be a good time to find it. Dundalk is not for sale.
