Let's Get Serious
Charlotte a Respected Leader?!?!
Maybe in her dreamworld
Let's analyze the claims on Charlotte's billboard. Charorge claim that she is "A Respected Leader in Lafourche, in Baton Rouge, in Washington, DC"
Where do we start? Respected? Leader? Mars?
Let's start with the geographical part. Is she a respected leader in Lafourche? She lost the Council when the scandals started breaking a little over a year ago. Before that, they rubber stamped everything she wanted. Now, she is lucky to get a laugh out that bunch. If she is such a respected leader, where is Lafourche First? Their disappearing act speaks volumes on how much they respect their creation. They respect her so much, several of the big shot former movers and shakers in Lafourche First are desperately looking for a third candidate for the race. And as far as the 10th Ward, let's see how respected she is when multiple 10th Ward Parish bridges go out of service between now and the election. And Charorge better be saying alot of novenas that there are no rain events to flood many of the same neighborhoods they didn't take care of down there.
In Baton Rouge? What, attending a few legislative committee meetings and every event where they can get free meals and booze makes one a respected leader? Where's the beef? What did she bring back from Baton Rouge other than those people rolling their eyes over what an embarrassment Charlotte and George are in public. It was a no-brainer for her to fight to get the 10th Ward inside the Cat 5 levee reallignment. But she didn't! That was Ted and Windell. Heck, she couldn't even read the map to determine where Cat 5 stopped!
In Washington, DC? Again, where is the beef? What did we get? Wow, she gave a few speeches to Congressional committees, freeloaded meals and booze, embarrassed us by carrying her daughter and George into a meeting with a US Senator! That is neither respect-getting nor leadership.
Apparently to Charorge, leadership is photo-ops, ribbon-cutting and trying to intimidate the media into carrying only their disinformation. But, you and I know that leadership is something totally different. It helps to have a brain able to grasp complex ideas. It also calls for not only having a vision, but carrying it out - sort of like developing a "Master Plan" for the future of Lafourche Parish. It also means mixing with the common folk and taking their phone calls. It would also help spending time in Thibodaux and making decisions. Leaders are also not afraid to get their hands dirty - leading by example. You know, like having your picture taken filing one of those portable levees or a sandbag or two while Lindel files out the paper work to get them, the sand bags that is. A leader does more with less, not less with more. Poor Buzz! What was his surplus used for? Now, we're broke. A leader doesn't abuse the Public trust by allowing her spouse to use Parish vehicles or keep the obligtion of $5.3 million secret for ten months. Harry Truman said the buck stops here. He took responsbility. He was a leader.
Where is your list of accomplishments, Charorge? Keeping those secret along with all the dirty laundry I'll be spending advertising money on so that the Public is fully informed?
