City Council President Leland Howard asked City Attorney Billy Musgrove for an "opinion" on how to proceed on Neese. I was at the work session when Pendleton and Carrier got into it about it. I figure Musgrove will come back with a bunch of technical gobbledy**** as to why the city should not sue, etc. This will give the rest of them an out. I hope the council does the right thing and sues. It is the only chance to get to the bottom of all the crapola. That is what Carrier says and I agree. Angie will do right on this. Maybe Barnhart. The rest, who knows. On something this important where is the Mayor? Once again, hide under the desk lack of leadership from him. What a shame.

That would be the only reasonable thing to do. But, I don't know if IRONS & NEESE are REASONABLE.

Booby Irons is a YES man. Always was, always will be to whoever pulls his strings. The whole Reynolds "charade" made him a saint when he was more like a puppet. He is the same as mayor. As for Jimmy Neese, personally he is a nice guy. His mother is in back of the whole thing, they have MADE their money and if I were them I would just pack up and leave town. There is no way to recover the money. Dick Jordan and crew KNEW this when they gave out the loan. THAT is what I would like to be investigated (HINT HINT TD NEWSROOM) BUT of course their are no investigative reporters at the TD. I admire Scott and Angie for trying, but this horse is dead. Scott has his plate full already doing SEDA's job and as for Mrs. Pickens, well I am not that big a fan, she reminds me of the Patty Duke theme song "A cigarette makes her lose her mind" (replaced hot dog with cigarette). Anyway, it is a noble effort but fruitless. Cut our loses and move on Florence citizens and PREVENT SEDA from robbing us with more taxes! THE DOG
I respectfully disagree MD 20/20. He is driving around in new cars & trucks with City Money in his wallet. He owns a lot of real estate (2 BYBurgers, Lion's Gate Apartments, not including the Bldg. that is mortgaged to the HILT. The Court street Bldg. is leased to State Farm for a few grand a month. The money and assets are there. Will the CROOKS at City Hall(Irons, Leland Howard, Sam Pendleton, Billy Musgrove) MAKE HIM PAY? Doubtful Neese has probably promised them a nice ROOM WITH A VIEW. They're lucky the FEDS don't come investigate the Fraudulent Loan Neese took out. They all may have a nice room with a view in FEDERAL PRISON.
Just wait and see if the Flo-Town City Lawyer don't give the council-persons reasons not to sue and some will jump on it as an out. I have seen that trick before. He sounds more like Neese's lawyer than the city's or the citizens. Watch ole Leland scream at Scott again and say his 4000 years in banking make him an expert and don't sue poor Jimmy. And then ole Sam jump in and say "I tole you so" And Herman sitting there wondering what in the heck to do and then siding with the let Neese off group. I predict it will be 3-3. Pickens, Carrier, Barnhart to sue and Howard, Pendleton, Graham not sue. And Booby in his "mayor" seat breathing a sigh of relief. He ought to show some leadership here but won't. What's new. Angie and Scott have really educated me on all this.
Maddog, I disagree! Jimmy is not a nice guy. He is an adult and cannot blame this on Mommy. The Neese family is not going anywhere. He screwed the citizens with the blessings of the powers that be. As long as they are all here, he is going no where. Let's face it, we don't count. They all knew what was going to happen when they entered into this ridiculous agreement. If he did not see this coming, he should have his right to practice revoked because of sheer stupidity. The city attorney should be fired! He will not be because he is in on it with everyone else. The city attorney obviously does not represent the regular old citizens. We have no idea what really goes on in the name of the city. Everything is settled behind closed doors. The "open" city council meeting is a joke. Nothing new is brought up in the open. Issues are decided before they reach to meeting. As far as this being a dead horse, it is; he is not going to pay anything he does not have to no matter how much money he has or is spending. However, I do believe we need to keep airing this dirty laundry so that these criminals do not get reelected. Our votes still count! I guess I got over my fear of posting.
