That’s my mayor. This is a great story, and it probably seals up another term for him, but Godfrey’s a douche.

you should have quoted the funny statement at the end of the article:

“With this case, I just heard about it,” said his attorney, J.D. Poorman — a distant cousin who said he had “no clue” what happened. “It’s like what I tell my son: Between 18 and 25, that’s what I call the stupid years.”

Kini A liberal politician would not do that. They would either call FEMA instead of 911, or pay the burgler off – offering more than what the perpertrator initially thought he could get in the first place. And then they’d give him a cabinet position somewhere.

The Aguilar joke still has a lot of steam left, but you should be subtle and just kind of slip it in places where we won’t be expecting it.

YES! Take back our streets! I is funny that that no politician, especially the anti-war liberals, touched the fact that in 2006, according to FBI stats, more people were murdered in the US than the total number of American troops in the entire GWOT (2001 to present).

Now he just needs to do that to the rest of Ogden… Ogden is going downhill rapidly, or so I’ve heard. This might be a good start!

Wow! Now I know that there’s someone in real life who does exactly what the protagonists in the Final Fight video game from 1989 did: clean up the streets and rid them of crime! Awesome!

When she interviewed the mayor later, KDFW-TV reporter Rebecca Aguilar asked him “Are you a fitness freak? Is that what you wanted to do — humiliate a man twice your size by going all WWE on him?”

Whacha gonna do when the Mattster runs wild on you?
