If this comment at the newspaper’s web site actually is Dan Coffey’s, and I assume so, then it’s a valuable glimpse into the councilman’s mind, because to have attended a council meeting so far this year is to have seen that this council is Coffey’s … amazing, but true. His is an act of adaptive reinvention last viewed with U2’s “Achtung Baby” album in 1992 … or, closer to home, with the now (and how?) dispatched Carl Malysz, each time an administration changed. We’re witnessing some high order political theater these days, and where it stops, no one knows.
Long Overdue. Mayor Gahan did what was necessary. Carl has a different view than the Mayor on where we should position our city for the future. Spineless people are the ones that hide behind fake names because they are to much of a coward to stand up and out front for what they believe in. Mayor Gahan, myself and Carl Malysz put their beliefs on the line everyday even though we will be ridiculed by self serving people who have NO idea what the truths and facts are. No one was ‘lining their pockets’ as you stated. As far as re-elections go, Jeff, and myself have won numerous elections and are proud that the people have faith in us, so your ‘Prophesy’ is based on a simple, slanderous mind that cannot understand that others do not share your view. Please have the courage and courtesy to use your given name so others may know who you are. It should be the policy of the Tribune to mandate that people give their names as this forum is of an editorial format. – Dan Coffey
