I think it's comical that the document was noted as being "littered with adjectives advocating home rule" as opposed to saying "riddled with adjectives..." .. I love a good pun and backhanded remarks.

Post your thoughts and comments about this article.

From the article, it appears this decision was made outside a public meeting. Is this another Sunshine Law violation?

"Nowhere do we say, 'Vote for this,' " she said. "It's to drive people to learn more about (the charter). I think we worded things pretty matter-of-factly."

The mailer actually reads like a piece of campaign literature. The wording clearly advocates voting in favor of the so-called "home rule" proposal.

This provides strong evidence that those behind the so-called "home rule" proposal have a hidden agenda of their own. What are they trying to hide from us?
