Trouble in Paradise?
Wow, this recent flap about the flapping flag. As we sit and breath, it seems that David Habecker, a Town Trustee, shows no respect for the flag and sits, back turned in protest, as other Town Trustees and visitors to town meetings recite the pledge. Along with this insult, he has shown his self serving interests while on various town boards and is in the midst of a recall effort by locals he has offended. Of course in this litigous society one has to waste taxpayers money on court action to stop the eminent recall, but recall efforts will surely prevail and trustee Habecker will most likely be thrown out onto the filthy downtown streets the town can't bother to keep clean.
