That, sir or madam, is the signature of an electorate that relied on emotion rather than rational thought. "We're pissed now, and who cares what happens later?"

Again I disagree. Many people were not pleased with the way the City treated the residents with the Storm Water fee/tax. The city government brought these issues on themselves. I'm sure they will be back before at the next election with a news tax increase and more tales of doom and gloom.

Oh yeah, let's not forget the Olympic Training center boondoggle.

For those not local, we have one of the Olympic Training Center located in the heart of Colorado Springs. Last year the OTC informed the city that unless they were provided with new facilities they would move to another city. The city gave in to their blackmail and agreed to provide new office facilities and other amenities to the tune of over $50 million so they would stay here.

This was done at the same time the mill levy request.
