If transparency were basketball...

If the University of Missouri basketball team whipped up on our beloved Kentucky Wildcats over and over, heads would surely roll. Getting the public involved in taking corrective action would take no effort at all.

So what are we going to do about the Show Me State running rings around us in the "people's right to know" arena?

Good government isn't basketball, I know, but if only the people who claim to be interested in protecting taxpayers got to work calling their lawmakers to support transparency, we could get it done quickly.

You hit the proverbial "nail on the head" brother. We live in an "entertainment-drunk" society where as long as Joe Sixpack has his buddumber and miller lowlife, his remote control, his sports and reality television, and sexualized women running around everywhere with thier cleavage falling out, he doesn't want to be bothered!
