twitterLetter: Politics should be full-time job
Thursday, Aug. 14, 2003 | 8:45 a.m.
Columnist Jon Ralston's Aug. 10 diatribe in the Sun about Las Vegas Councilman Michael Mack being for sale is a lot of innuendo and of little substance. Just as long as voters here continue to allow "part-time" politicians we will have even more questionable dealings.
Wake up, Nevadans, and start running state and local government like a 21st century business rather than an 18th century feudal system.
