Re “Treading Heavily While Walking Down a Rugged Path with Gourley”
I may not be able to stay long at this evening’s School Board meeting. Here is a short statement that I will leave for the Board.
Dear Board Members:
There have been a lot of emotions and fretting over the budget cuts. However, I think some members of the School Board should be acting in a more civil and professional manner.
I would like to point out that Board member Steve Gourley stated publicly in an April 28 article in thefrontpageonline.com:
“Mr. Mielke has been lying about that ever since I met him. He has been lying about everything…he's a big fat liar and stupid.”
Is this any way to talk about the President of the Teachers Union whom you are dealing with?
I am calling on Mr. Gourley to apologize to Mr. Mielke for his uncouth and unprofessional conduct.
I think Mr. Gourley carries a grudge and certain bias that should make him recuse himself from voting on budget cuts against Mr. Mielke's union.
