Ding Dong the Dunce is Dead

In the Wizard of Oz a house fell out of the sky and landed on a wicked witch. Yesterday in Lubbock, a city fell out of the sky and landed on a devious dunce. Voters killed Mayor Dave the dunce, taking back their freedom. This morning in Lubbock, the air smells better, the sky is brighter, the dogs are relaxing, and liberty loving people are celebrating. We cavemen are proud of our trophy. We came out into the sunlight and hunted down our prey. And now we display the fruits of our labor. Ex Mayor Dave the dunce. He is regulated to the trash bin of Lubbock history. Dave the dunce did not go gentle into the goodnight. No, he stayed his asshole self to the end. Always blaming the media for slanted stories, blaming citizens for being uneducated cavemen, blaming past city councils for his mistakes, and blaming voters for not realizing he is what Lubbock needs. Dave the dunce is arrogant, misinformed, and downright stupid. He made Lubbock a laughingstock nationwide. He made mistake after mistake, misspoke time and time again, and made a good decision not once. Will Dave the dunce ever come to the conclusion that he brought on his downfall? Most likely not. People like him never realize shortcomings in themselves, only passing blame onto everyone else. No matter what happens from here on, Dave the dunce is done. His head sits on top of a pole as a reminder that us cavemen will kill when push comes to shove. Lubbock is on a new path with a new man in charge. Only time will tell what that path holds for us. But for now it can't be worse than our past.
