I wonder how many dollars have been contributed to McCaskell and Blunts campaign funds in the last year? And who they came from?
ReplyDeleteThey might be trying to put low income housing or a old folks home on the airport property. I think McCaskioll owns a bunch of them doesn't she ?
ReplyDeleteThis is why people do not trust government. To help this city get by with steeling taxpayer money is a crime, they should be held accountable not let go scott free.
