Quote of the Day

From Multnomah County Commissioner Serena Cruz to County Sheriff Bernie Guisto, on the reason the commission (at least temporarily) won't give Guisto more money for jail operations:

You’ve said it’s a resource-balancing issue, and what I think is that it’s a resource-management issue.

Oh, that's rich. When is the last time you heard Cruz or any other commissioner argue that more money was unnecessary if the government agency in question would just manage its funds more responsibly?

Pot, meet kettle.
