Dear CrickeeRaven,

Answering your attacks is almost fun.

You say that I "wasted $40,000" on a "losing run". That is your opinion and you're entitled to it.

Here is how I feel about it.

I spent over 700 days in a row and over $40,000 of my own money getting my "Cut Taxes - Cut Spending" movement into the hearts of the "80,000 taxpayers that are paying the tab". AND IT WORKED!!

Ever since the election, where I received 13,278 votes, more than any other opponent of Mayor Avedisian, everyone has been talking about my "Cut Taxes - Cut Spending" platform, so much so, that when the budget came around this spring, all nine members of the City Council had heard it loud and clear from their constituents and they stopped the mayor from adding 29 amendments that would increase taxes. Even Mayor Avedisian refused to veto it because he called himself "a political realist".

Saving hundreds of thousands of dollars for 80,000 taxpayers is not what I would call "a losing run", but you can call it anything you want. You say my time should be better spent "helping people". Isn't that what I just did?

And you call me a bully but aren't you the one who is being a bully? I have never once attacked you. I only defend myself when you attack me. I even asked for your permission to call you "CR".

You really need to get a life CrickeeRaven.

In the menatime, Happy Summer.

Happy Summer everyone.
