In another hard hitting editorial, the Peoria Journal Star has called on the newly elected County Board Chairmen of Woodford and Tazwell Counties to "mend fences". Such sage advice can only be ignored at the Counties' peril.
This courageous stand is best illustrated by the final line of the piece:
"Whatever hatchets are out there, residents of both counties will be best served if those they elected bury them."With a solid policy compass like this is it any wonder our Board depends so heavily on the paper's opinion for direction?
The editorial board did manage to get in the obligatory Woodford County dig, though:
"He's [Tazwell Board Chairman Prather] lucky to have a bipartisan board, if Woodford is any indication. Stable finances should help, too."We sure hope their jobs are safe over there at the paper with the announcement of their imminent sale. We hear David Geffen is ready to pony up $2 Billion for the L.A. Times. Maybe he'd like the PJS as well. We'd miss those nuts.
