I know some of you won't admit that you chose location based on price and maybe some of you did not, but it was the reason most of us bought here and most of us had no idea it was Commerce City. And did any of you stop to think that maybe the house price was lower because the land was cheaper to developers because there were no services for residents and were not likely to be any for a long time - do you all really think it was an accident - sadly most of you are just ignorant about to how the world works and you won't admit you moved here for price and you won't admit that the price was low for a reason.

Voters then went to the polls and approved the measure with nearly 90 percent voting in favor. With that, English became the official language for all governmental proceedings in Missouri. It also means no individual has the right to demand government services in a language other than English. A common language is the cornerstone of a cohesive and united state and country. Ensuring that English is our official language is simply common sense.Common Sensenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5787227658370252666.post-48252785603357209562011-02-19T10:36:02.146-07:002011-02-19T10:36:02.146-07:00Checkers being opened in the north range probably ...Checkers being opened in the north range probably wasn't smart.

Every State of the City that Natale has given has only been about "wowing the crowd". It has only been used as a platform to promote lies the city wants to tell to attempt to calm the angry crowds. So I would say this year Natale should apologize to the citizens for not caring about them, for not getting rid of a very bad city manager as soon it was apparent that Flannery was a bad choice, for not making Flannery pay the money he owes the citizens, for the problems that city employees faced, for the problems that businesses faced attempting to deal with the city staff, for not stepping in and assisting a failing school district,his complete disregard for what the average Commerce City citizens feels and has to live with AND for only caring about his own (Natale's) personal agenda and travel opportunities.
