So far no one has photographed Doug Mah in public. I'm going to open it up a bit and say even if you don't have a camera and you see him, report on it. What is he doing? If he's eating, what is he eating and where? Doug Mah can't expect to be mayor and not spend time among his constituents. He has to get a feel for the pulse of Olympia, right? How else can he promise us things he'll never deliver

I don't think most on Olyblog

are Doug constituents. You guys are TJ's con's and Laura's con's, but not likely are you Doug's. It's also very likely his path to/with his constituents will never intersect with you and yours.

But who knows? Invite him to have coffee with you. Invite him to your work place Rob.

We both know the real reason you are posting about him and encouraging people to observe him is to get juice on him that you can use against him, right? :)

I'm offended!

(insert sarcastic tone)How could you say such a thing!

Seriously. These city council races are not jurisdictional, every member of the council is supposed to represent all of Olympia. Doug seems to represent the conservative SE very well, oh and a lot of out-of-towners as well (read: developers who don't care about you and your family and would gladly price you out of your home to make way for big developments, bigger, more expensive houses and condominiums).

The fact that he isn't EVER seen, not just downtown, but anywhere in public in Olympia says a lot. Does he hang out in Lacey? Tumwater? Does Mr. Mah even like Olympia? If he does he should prove it. He should also set an example to people who falsely believe that downtown is dangerous by shopping and eating and spending time here. That's what a real leader would do.

"get juice on him"

I just love that cop talk.  Come to think of it, if Fred Thompson becomes president, maybe he can start using some of that cop lingo in the oval office, kind of a nice change of pace from the cowboy talk.

Does my new quote meet with your approval, CS?

"All political power comes from the barrel of a gun. The communist party must command all the guns, that way, no guns can ever be used to command the party."  Mao Tse Tung

like the quote

I suspect the version of the communist party in China would not go along with it today unless they were reading it as all good communists must have guns to protect the communist party.  I think it would be fair to say that the majority of those that are pro-gun tend to vote conservative and probably have guns.  Also fair to say that the majority of the gun control people are probably liberal and have no guns.  Interesting, the conservatives have been able to accomplish exactly the same thing as the communist party, command all the guns and you don't have to worry about the opposition.
