Councilman Writes Letter to Dealer

It starts off with the greeting, "Dear Piece of Trash" and it only gets better from there. See the original here.

Parallels

There was a leader in Chicago who many people want replaced. At the very best, one could say that he'd had more off days than on days. At the worst, one could say that he was an overrated, completely incompetent boob.

Many many people were clamoring for his removal and replacement. The problem was that none of the people available to replace him were all that good. Some had once shown some leadership potential, while others seemed like while they wouldn't let anything bad happen, they also wouldn't take charge and make any improvements (though, arguably, that could be better than the current situation).

When he re-won his job, some folks appeared to jump onto his bandwagon, saying "We know he's got problems, but he's better than the alternative. Just because I've criticized him in the past doesn't mean that I necessarily need to choose one of the other people up for the job. They're not necessarily going to be better."

Those folks got lambasted as being hypocrites and traitors. But I saw their point -- even though the leader in question was not doing the job well, it didn't mean that the other choices would do it any better.

On the other hand, some people want to see change for the sake of change. Tom Westgard feels that "it's a step forward to try a new option."

Well, those who want change are going to get it this weekend: Brian Griese is taking over the reins as quarterback of the Chicago Bears. It will be interesting to see if it's better, worse, or different at all. What I do know is that the Bears couldn't keep going the way they were going, and some change was definitely needed. Will it be enough?

Does this all sound very very familiar?

Tooting our Own Horns

We here at I Love Everything and Everyone aren't given to tooting our own horns very often, but this time we just couldn't resist as we have recently been honored by none other than Archie Gait's mother who has bestowed upon us her "Archie's Mom Loves This Site" seal of approval. As if that weren't enough, we've been ranked (using her incredibly precise, but impossible-to-understand rating system) as her number one, most favorite site on the entire internet.

How cool is that?

We promise not to let this go to our head. We'll still be bringing you the most hard hitting nonsense in the blogosphere.

Town Hall Meeting Gives Townspeople Chance To Say Stupid Things In Public

NEW BEDFORD, MA—In a true display of democracy, a town hall meeting held at the New Bedford High School auditorium Monday gave the crowd of approximately 550 residents the opportunity to publicly voice every last one of the inane thoughts and concerns they would normally only have the chance to utter to themselves.
