Who Is Mayor Bud Norris?

Have you ever heard of Mayor Bud Norris? Didn’t think so. If you did it would be something to try to make you not like him. He makes the spotlight every once in awhile. Two years ago he declared a “Glen Beck” day and gave him a key to the city. Beck is a native son and famous now. Why shouldn’t the mayor invite a famous personality home whether you like Glen Beck or not? But the public had a hissy fit over it.

Now the Mayor is in trouble with the public and city council because he asked the state to deny a liquor permit for a proposed Mexican Restaurant. They want to serve 60 kinds of Tequila @ $8 to $10.00 a drink. There is an establishment directly across the street from this proposed restaurant that has had excessive 911 calls so the Mayor says its just too much booze served in that neighborhood. Public is having a hissy fit again.

The Library sign fell apart and they had to replace it but the Mayor left off one word. The word was “biblioteca”. This means Library in Spanish. He as asked that the phone system not include Spanish in their menu choices.  Another Hissy fit.

The public is calling him a racist. I call him the best prospect for President of the United States. What do you think? Please leave your comments. LLL
