His bond rating is A++ but his debt is 100 million. You just have to look around and see the vacancies and wonder if he sees what's happening. He call Grimes a people person, I heard him called a bully. As for the mall he continues to pursue a vision that is destructive and deceiving. I wish we were all living in his world, unfortunately there is the reality of a crashing stock market, high unemplyment, foreclosures and a government that doesn't listen. If everything was as good as McLaughlin pretends we wouldn't be facing the problems we do today. People are waking up and looking around and making their own judgments. When they look around their conclusions will be different than the Mayors.<br><br><br>George A. TarasukFROM THE FRONT PORCHhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18199735251496858678noreply@blogger.com
