"Stupid is as stupid does"

Forrest Gump

Parkville Luminary, August 22nd edition (you might want to get a copy)

"In a perfect world, Weatherby Lake would be paying for (the repair) since they're the ones who use it" KCMO Councilman Ford said of the bridge which lies in Kansas City's jurisdiction.

Democratic County Commissioner candidate (and Weatherby Lake resident) Bill Quitmeier said the bridges deterioration was easy to predict and that Kansas City had no one to blame but themselves. In regards to paying for the bridge repairs remarks by Ford, Quitmeier said, "As are many area residents, while I am not a Kansas City resident, I pay earnings tax to Kansas City every year." I have personally paid earnings tax for 32 years."
