As we mentioned earlier, the Enough is Enough folks -- pro-convention center hotel, anti-"negativity and distortions associated with the May 9th election" -- had their coming-out party this morning at the Stoneleigh Hotel, where they debuted their Web site and TV spot. We'll have more from the party later today -- because nothing screams "slide show" like guys in ties. Seems like they missed a real opportunity for the ad's music, though -- I mean, really.
Here's Ebby Halliday from the lengthy press release, in which all involved talk about how they hate all the mud-slinging and name-calling, yech: "Over the last nine decades I've seen Dallas grow from a small town to a world-class city. We don't need outsiders throwing mud around town, telling us what we need and how to do our business." Outsiders? She has met Harlan Crow, right?
So everyday we have a new Pro Hotel group -- must mean this thing is really in the toilet and they are grabbing at straws -- or in this case Crows.
Whenever I see someone in the middle of a debate say "Let's just stop bickering and start working" (which, make no mistake, is the gist here), it tells me they've lost the debate.
This is the second Enuff Z'Nuff reference I've heard today; the Musers brought them up during Biggest Show this morning.
If I believed that this were anything more than an odd coincidence, I'd think there was some meaning to it.
Um, thanks John K.
Back to you Robert.
I only voted for one of those supposed leaders now in City Hall. If they placed them all on the ballot for an overall council position or mayor's slot,I could not vote for bu just two and one/half people. My Council person is on the "Yes" side of the Hotel issue. One other Coincil person I know and like but they are on the "No" side of the Hotel isue, but I would vote for them anyway. One other Council person that I know is against the "Trinity" issue and is on the "No" side of the hotel issue, but they really don't have enopugh sence to understand either issue, so I would vote4 for them amnyway. The Mayor is not my kind of guy anyway, and was sent there to re-image the city by the "bosses of the North" so I can't give hime a vote or my confidence. I might as well not go to the polls at all, but I will.
