He is not a liar because he disagrees with me. He is a liar because he is telling lies.

"Warrant Article 2, which if adopted, would eliminate forever"

That warrant would not have eliminated any of the voters rights forever. Anything done with this warrant could be undone with another. Trying to scare the voters in the days before they vote sometimes works, it's never right.

He could have been up front with the voters and told them that the warrant would close the loop hole he is using to prevent development of one small island. He could have told them the the loop hole is also screwing a lot of innocent people on other islands but that he doesn't care about them, only his pet crusade.

But of course he couldn't do that because he would have lost the vote. And it was very close.

The funny thing is that I agree with what he is trying to do. I just hate the way he is going about it.

This may put out of business some of the companies that do island work. Boats, barges and water access on the mainland cost plenty. That is one of the things I was talking about when I suggested people don't understand what this is really about.
Your compromise warrant will state?
