D&C LTE Puts It All Together on Brooks’ Agenda
Man, is it nice to see folks out there in Rochester land seeing the whole picture:
County’s appeal is plummeting
Monroe County is MINE. ALL MINE.Maggie Brooks’ April 2 essay (”Wise for trustees to weigh local talent”) reinforces my opinion that she is a politician who consistently puts her own agenda ahead of the best interests of this community. The recent actions of the Monroe Community College trustees are indefensible, and Brooks’ attempt to justify them is unconscionable.
Let’s not forget either her threat to withhold funding from our libraries, her attempt to take funds away from our schools and her fight against the acknowledgement of same-sex unions in this community. She sure makes Rochester appear as a welcoming place where civil liberties and education are paramount concerns! Is this how we want those outside the area to view us?
MCC is a jewel in Rochester’s crown, and Brooks’ support of the MCC trustees’ transparent attempt to turn this selection to political advantage allows us to see once again that her partisan loyalty and personal views come way ahead of her commitment to the people of Monroe County.
Yup. Party over people, party over county. Note how Brooks was silent through the whole Public Defender selection process (though she was lurking in the wings), and now that she’s speaking out, she’s trying to provide cover for the bad behavior.
I think she learned the wrong lesson from the PD debacle.
