Hi Tom,

I don't recall what it takes to get officially signed up to make comments, but if you could post something along these lines it seems appropriate:

I don't know anything else about Jerry Merel, and I think everyone should be flabbergasted at the open and honest statement he made, and once over their shock should thank him  as the first brave and honest person in Sacramento in an official capacity to put the awkward truth on the table so it can be addressed head on, rather than continue to bury the direction that power politics was so obviously going with false, feel-good  claims of "co-equal".

As people, we become used to only hearing bad news from our enemies, so anyone who tells us anything "bad" must be the enemy.  So shoot the messenger that gave the world a heads up, rather than welcome the truth and use the information provided to re-focus the discussion on the facts.  

And after all, you all already knew that was how things were, you just couldn't get anyone to admit it and cause the politicials to have to defend where things are really being taken.  Now you do.  You couldn't hope for more at this stage of things.

Thanks Jerry.

Dave
