Uh, Shihadeh DID vote for police
It is too bad that the internet allows people to say whatever they want... and never let the truth interrupt a good rant. I quote from the Feb. 22, 2007 Muscatine Journal:
''During a public budget review session attended only by Council members and the media, councilman at-large Osama Shihadeh proposed squeezing funds for the officer from a 2 percent cut from all city departments?’ non-personnel expenditures covered in the general fund.
Shihadeh?’s motion for a new police officer failed after it was backed by only three of six council members present. Bob Howard, representative at-large, and Bob Bynum, 4th Ward, voted with Shihadeh.''
The original poster obviously knows nothing about the the actions of the individual council members and how they vote, yet seems in quite a hurry to show everyone just how uninformed he/she is.
The only recourse we have is once exposed as an unknowing and unreliable source, no intelligent person will put any credence to his/her opinions.
