As a former Mayor of a small town I feel it is time to educate some of you.

Palin was the mayor of a town that had a "City Manager" form of government where all aspects of hiring and dismissal were the duty of the manager. The Mayor and council hold the responsibility of budget and policy. A Mayor almost never in small towns can dismiss any employee unless the community has a "Strong Mayor" form of government which are fast becoming obsolete.

Where is the cry we heard just a week or so ago that she was only was just a figurehead and cut ribbons?

If you can't understand how the smallest forms of government work in our Country are you sure you are competent to comment on the highest offices?

........

I once had to remove several books from the towns library and dismiss a assistant librarian. The assistant had found some books that were in the State Library and had them transferred to ours that had graphic pictures of young girls and boys of various ages and development.

Would you have left the books on the shelves? I am sure if I were to run for higher office someday some loony leftist would make the same claim of me as Palin.
