He called the "backroom dealing" concerning the mayor pro tem vote last week "unbecoming".
Really? Why are none of the other Fort Worth backroom deals called unbecoming? Because they happen to average citizens, not council members?
He says it was "a pathetic example of leadership and gave a bad name to integrity".
Sanders also claims "Hicks, who serves her constituents in District 8 well, performed those duties with sincerity and a commitment that put the council and the city in the best light. Her untiring efforts at all times are most commendable".
There are many residents in District 8 that argue this claim. Trust us, we've heard them. Some have asked if Hicks even knows where Carter Avenue is. (She did do an interview from a gas station close to there once). It's been said, if you want her to show up, make sure the cameras are rolling.
This isn't the first example of unbecoming, integrity lacking, pathetic leadership.
And sadly, this being Fort Worth, it probably won't be the last.
Sanders wants to get over the petty politics and move on, we wonder WHO he voted for in May?

Council was a blast Tuesday.
Regarding the Mayor Pro-Tem, hey, it happened to Chuck Silcox twice and I don't remember Bob Ray coming to Chuck's defense. Actually Chuck handled the insult much more graciously than Hicks.
The gay guys should have been evicted from city council much earlier. A decidedly frustrated and weak appearing mayor let things get out of hand.
