Alderman’s McBride temper tantrum shocks Common Council

Alderman’s McBride temper tantrum shocks Common Council.

 

“I am not an Elephant, I am an attorney” shouts Freshman Alderman DennisMcBride

 

Well ok, he didn’t say Elephant, but what I think he meant was “I am smarter/better than you” by the comment.    This tantrum was started when the four aldermen(committee) filled an aldermanic seat vacated by Mayor Didier, with Jill Organ who Mr. McBride thought was less qualified than his choice.

 

See Janice Kayser’s story

Let’s see, would you rather have a Librarian or Civil Engineer/MBA on the board.

 

Who will be more impressed that I am an attorney?

 

Great way to make friends and influence people, Mr. McBride.

 

The City is lucky to have a person the caliber of Ms. Organ serving on the board.  The City will benefit from her expertise.

 

The Freshman Alderman Mr. McBride should accept the committee’s decision and welcome Ms. Organ onto the board.  

 

The board needs to work together to get things done and McBride’s temper tantrum show’s they may have a difficult time doing so.
