During Tuesday's meeting of the Board of Education, Mark Boughton displayed his trademark arrogance in his rationale behind punishing a separate body of government.
For those who don't know, at tonight's city council meeting, the mayor is leading the charge in punishing the board of education for giving raises to school administrators...although the mayor and city council has no jurisdiction over the decision making of the board of education.
Since News-Times education reporter Eileen Fitzgerald and political reporter Dirk Perrefort refuse to inform the public on the arrogant (and possibly illegal) action by Boughton, other concerned people are stepping in to fill the void by exposing the mayor's nonsense.
From Tuesday, here's video footage of arrogant Boughton scolding the board of education. As you'll see, although some of Republican members of the board kissed Boughton's ring, at least some Democrat (Robert Taborsak) put Boughton in his place and informed others that the mayor's move was most likely illegal.
