Well said, Brian. Today, before reading your article, my husband and I were discussing the very issues you brought up. We discussed how so many politicians throughout history ARE bought and paid for (the context was banking in previous centuries, but the concept is the same).

Then we segued to conversations held during several of Jason Pierce's Mayor Coffees in which Jason admitted openly that he took donations from developers. But here's the difference: He also told those developers that he WOULD NOT do back room deals nor grant them any special dispensation in exchange for their donations.

Jason has remained true his dedication to adhere to the Comprehensive Plan, to keep Eagle's density as low as possible within the Comp Plan, and to lead with a long-term vision of Eagle as a great place to work and play for current AND future generations.

Jason Pierce doesn't do stuff just because it's politically expedient. I'm not sure we can say the same for his opponents.
