Hey Dollar714: This is a real citizen - doing what real citizens should be doing - watching after the good of the citizenry. This is not a talking head news reporter. Obviously, he's reading from his script to try to best get his point across. Cut him some slack.
Paranoid? I doubt it. Caring about what happens with taxation - more likely. I wish there were more people like this around.
Why can you not look directly at the camera while you speak ?
If this is a " massive kickback " to Clay Bennett and Aubrey McClendon, then what do you call the $13 million that McClendon donated to OU ? Or the $20 million the Gaylords gave to OU to finish the renovation of Owen Field, or the umpteen million they gave to build a new journalism building on the OU campus. Your paranoid.
Pete White said the City Council has nothing to do with this issue, and in the same breath said that they (the council) will be advising the State on these matters. White needs to state whether they will be doing this on their own personal time, and with their own resources. Otherwise, they ARE involved and MUST be transparent and accountable to the people. The lunatics at CMA Strategies don't have to, but in theory government must or else we are certainly headed for dark times.
