Mr.
president,
I'm
not
going
to
speak
as
long
as
I
would
have
last
week
on
this:
it's
not
the
content
of
it
as
much
as
the
content
of
it
being
a
resolution
of
council.
This
is
personal
privilege
at
the
end,
if
you
got
a
problem
with
what
somebody
says
does
got
convicted
of
went
to
jail
for
whatever
it
is,
the
council's
would
not
be
weighing
in
on
presidential
candidates
comments.
I
just
disagree
with
that
and
I'll
be
voting.
No
thank
you.
Breakfast.
