After reading Scott's non-apology, do you still believe that a recall is too harsh? Just wondering.
ReplyDeleteI watched the selectmen’s meeting and it is interesting that in his so called apology Scott brings up issues involving others and when those issues involving others are being addressed he gets mad and complains that people are talking about him. Scott wouldn’t know the truth if it bit him in the a$$.
ReplyDeleteYes, a recall would be too harsh for this incident. If one gathers up all the incidents, one may be able to make a case of it. Let's sit back and watch. He's on notice. In the future, if he does something that is not in the best interest of the town, or puts the BOS in a bad light once again, then go for it.
ReplyDeleteI have to agree. think about it, the incident, and the other things he has done like with his sign outside his store. i really believe he doesn't say or do the things he does out of spite. I really do believe you can't fix stupid, but that doesn't mean we have to tolerate stupid forever, too.
ReplyDeleteRight you can not "fix stupid" and he shows no sign of "getting it" there is no room for an obvious self server on the board of selectmen.He should "man up" and go on his own.
