Really?

The Fort Worth Star-Telegram daily newspaper is full of the "Fort Worth Way" today.

There is an article where the Fort Worth police say Chad Gibson, the gentleman injured in the Rainbow Lounge raid, fell down and hit his head. Was this before or after the picture was taken with the agents (TABC and Fort Worth police) sitting on him?

And now TABC says they shouldn't have been there at all. Then why were they?

Another gem was the huge headline boasting that the Trinity River Vision is now a blurry $880 million dollar project. One of our contributors is currently working on a post for this, check back soon, you won't want to miss it.

Here are some of the comments citizens have posted about the Trinity boondoggle so far today.

Looks like one more Republican backed over budget, behind schedule and shorted project. Well at least Kay's kid has a job until 2021.

Budget over runs??? Time to completion expanding??? No!!!!!! Who would have thunk it. the way these poeple throw around millions of dollars is shameful. I agree, nothing more than a monument to some politicians ego. We have to outlaw the position of politician as a career.

Tommy Lee Jones didn't tell us that "the Barnett" would make the "vision" more expensive.
****************
Don't worry about a thing...we've got a kid with ZERO experience on ANY construction project in charge of this with an $800 million budget. What could go wrong?
****************
DUH! KG's boy is way out of his league, and this has been a boondoggle since it was conceived! Keep this story on the computer, and leave the increased figure blank for the next revision. This story will run over and over, with slighty different figures for the new cost.
****************
This project is a joke and is nothing more than FW stroking its own ego. All while folks can barely afford to live. This is absurd.
