Plainfield Mayor Sharon Robinson-Briggs joined the mile-high club of politicians at the Democratic National Convention in Denver Wednesday.
Leaving on a 6:59 AM flight from Newark Liberty, Her Honor sat near a loyal reader on their way to Denver to visit family. In a friendly fashion, the reader gave the mayor tips on avoiding the high-altitude headaches visitors frequently get when visiting Denver.
Taxpayers fretting about the cost of the mayor's security detail (in evidence Tuesday evening at the Washington School forum) need not worry -- the mayor traveled solo.
She was also recently spotted shopping without bodyguards at the A&P on Oak Tree Road in South Plainfield.
Is the issue with the bodyguards that Her Honor only feels threatened while in Plainfield?
The point, to me, is EITHER YOU NEED THEM or YOU DO NOT.
Meanwhile, dear taxpayer, you're reading this, stuck in Plainfield, and the bodyguards are sort of a low-altitude headache of your own.
But wait, 2009 is coming.

This is not on topic, but I thought I would share something I find to be totally hypocritical on the part of Jerry Green. On Mr. Green's blog, he complains about not-for-profit organizations purchasing property in Plainfield and being taken off the tax rolls. He goes on to say he wants Councilman Cory Storch to conduct an investigation and to report his findings to the assemblyman so the assemblyman can get in touch with the proper authorities in Trenton. Putting the obvious aside, Assemblyman Green unloaded property owned by him in Linden for approximately $765,000. The purchaser of the property is the Union County Improvement Authority. Therefore, Mr. Green did exactly what he is complaining of on his blog as the property that was owned by him has been taken off Linden's tax rolls. Go figure.
And gladly so!!!!
