I AM THE SENATOR. YOU ARE THE CITIZEN. YOU SHOULD BE QUIET.
Hopefully you will be but a citizen in 2014.

Rarely has a legislator expressed what he thinks of the public with such eloquence and and brevity as Republican Tommy Tucker, Chairman of the North Carolina Senate’s State and Local Government Committee.

So honestly.

So powerfully.

Challenged by a reporter to record a voice vote on a bill that would allow city and county governments to post public notices, traditionally published in newspapers, in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying ‘Beware of the Leopard‘  solely on government websites, so that the Committee’s members would have to own up to their votes, how did Tucker respond?
