ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) — Days after a Republican was elected mayor of Annapolis, City Council members say they will revisit legislation that would strip the mayor’s office of much of its power.

Democratic Alderman Ross Arnett of Ward 8 tells The Capital he will introduce a charter amendment to move Annapolis to a council-manager style of government. The city manager would report directly to the City Council, not the mayor.

Doesn’t this fall under the definition of ‘ex-post facto’ laws?

It is that is why they elected a Republican. And now they want to take away his powers so that he doesn’t fire any of the cronies that have brought the city to its knees. FYI 534 employees for a city that has less then 40,000 residents. A budget of $100 million dollars that they needed to get a loan to pay employees with.

These are the same freaking, fanatical liberals the RINOS keep telling us we need to come together with. How? These people play hardball politics on every issue and our side just gives in to it.

The People’s Republic of Merry-land is a democrat party dictatorship, and republicans are being suppressed.
