Do you have any idea how ridiculous your remarks sound?

You and the rest of the current board wrote a letter to the state asking that all the money go to the county. Why would you do that if you knew 8 months ago that legislation would be introduced to give OPA 10% of the slots income?

Yes, it will be some time before any money comes if the bill passes. So what? The important thing is that it comes. Perhaps if you are on the board at the time you will vote to give the money back.

The board did nothing to support OPA receiving a percentage of the slots money. Nothing. Our county commissioners did nothing to support OPA receiving a percentage of the slots money. Nothing. You and the rest of the board publicly applauded Judy Boggs for asking that all the money go to the county and she publicly accused me of the crime of trying to get money for OPA.

So, just who are my "friends" in the effort by C.O.P.E. to obtain a share for OPA:
