Correia and Council Meet to Express Feigned Surprise Over Audit Results

So apparently HIS MAJESTY Bob Correia has summoned his court to meet and twitter over the findings of the new and mysterious state audit of city finances.

For months, formal Mayoral Candidate Eric Poulin talked about this issue. He held press conferences and posted white papers on the reform of the city's financial systems that went unattended and unread.

Kerri Rodrigues covered this issue two years ago on her show. Anyone remember the programs with Mary Sahady and Jim Smith? Or was I the only one paying attention as she demanded answers for the repeat appearance of many of the same things that are now "shocking" and "astounding" to members of the Fall River City Council. Many of whom received the same audit and did absolutely nothing about it.

So now the dog and pony show. The feigned outrage. The calls for change.

At least now HIS MAJESTY now has his fool-proof excuse for anything that goes wrong in the first two years.

We're happy to give you the Reader's Digest version of this 46-page document:

City Hall is full of hacks dating back to the Viveiros administration in 1978. They are collectively a bunch of overpaid morons who fail to understand new-fangled things like "computers" and "teh internets". The city has 9,000 bank accounts, doesn't collect half the taxes they are owed and can't do simple math.

Let the games begin!
