Like a player who doesn't come to practice...

Check out the latest mailer from Cindy Rosenthal for mayor:



As my mom pointed out in the latest debate, Bob Stoops would never make a player who doesn't practice captain of the team. That's what it would be like electing Hal Ezzell. As far as I can tell, he seems like a reasonable person, but he definitely doesn't seem like he has the time to add the job of mayor to his busy schedule.

Ezzell's excuse for missing the meetings: “I have to prioritize my time."

You can read about city attendance records here--all in, Ezzell has missed more meetings than anyone on council!

Ezzell's excuse for missing so many city council meetings was that he was busy, as he says: “I have to prioritize my time." We need a mayor who prioritizes Norman!!

I also thought it was a really low blow how Ezzell questioned my mom's ability to do her job at the university, something he seems to know nothing about. My mom has never questioned his ability to run his businesses--merely his participation on council!

Further, for the record, my mom works hard both as a professor and as mayor--I see her working hard all of the time. It's amazing, she is attentive to her students and has even co-authored a new book that will be coming out soon. I think she learned to do it by raising kids and finishing her PhD at the same time!
