Letter: Ralston columns expose politicians

Regarding Jon Ralston's July 15 column, "Guinn unveils his comedy act":

I loved it! Jon Ralston did it again. He wrote a piercing column about Gov. Kenny Guinn and his ploys and tactics to try to screw the public out of seeing who he really is and who he really represents.

I believe any new taxes should be garnered from the rich casinos that are getting away with murder by forking over a pittance of only 6.25 percent to a state that has unbridled growth (the fault of the casinos and builders), and lots of doublespeak from the governor, who is not keeping his end of the bargain.

To see two great columns by Ralston about Guinn and the City Council members and county commissioners is like putting a million tons of chocolate in front of me and telling me I could eat it all without gaining a pound.

I'm not really sure I can take all this! But please keep feeding me such goodies.
