Oversight is overrated

While one Cheshire Democrat feels that oversight and accountability are important:It seems that not all Cheshire Dems agree with Congressman Chris Murphy. After all:

"Mr. Altieri trusts that the town manager and department heads are the ones who address such issues on a daily basis, get good information, and deal with it."

I bet President George W. Bush would love to replace Congressman Murphy with Councilman Altieri. GWB could count on Congressman Altieri to trust him.

And I'm sure most Cheshire Dems wish that Senators Pat Leahy and Chuck Schumer would've stopped peppering Alberto Gonzalez with so many questions last summer. I mean, why didn't Leahy and Schumer just trust AG Gonzalez? We could've just skipped over all the Q&A and gotten down to brass tacks.

The Council should have a top priority and accomplish it. Staff can take care of everything else.

No questions asked.

These aren't the droids you're looking for. Move along.

Altieri is a pet poodle, not a watchdog.
