Politics Of Flashing Signs

City Council seems amazed that nobody really gives a flip about their "high politics" of flashing signs.

Perhaps it's because we're all a lot more concerned about the city's deteriorating infrastructure, the potholes our cars fall into, the street demolition without end downtown, rising crime (and petty crime indicators like graffiti), etc.

I do care more about those matters than whether Tillman Fertitta gets his sign. Surely it doesn't take Bob Stein to figure that out.
