Card Carriers

Do you remember the term “card-carrying communist?” I do, but not because I was alive when the hearings were held by McCarthy.  The term came to mind this morning when I read a post by Radley Balko titled “Mayors, Millions, Malevolence." In Balko’s post, he provides a link to the United States Conference of Mayors dues page.

I’m not certain if the mayor of Grand Rapids is a member of this august group of card carriers, but I would not doubt it, considering Mayor Heartwell’s penchance for feeling. If indeed he is a card-carrying member, it costs the city about $10,877.00.  It is not money well spent.
