Mager worth keeping

Thu., Oct. 21, 2010

Bonnie Mager is a keeper in my book. Some politicians do things for the community while others try to stick us with $500 million prisons.

Bonnie took the lead in a plan with the city, the county and Airway Heights to protect the critical flying area around Fairchild and ensure that a future Base Realignment and Closure wouldn’t use that as an excuse to close this economically critical asset.

Bonnie put together a plan to trade raceway land for playfields in exchange for water and sewage connections for the toxic raceway.

Bonnie continues to watch out for county taxpayers while others plan half-billion-dollar boondoggles. Let’s make sure we keep one fiscal conservative in the courthouse to watch out for our interests. She deserves our votes.
