Unconfirmed: Another great victory against ICLEI in Pinellas County, Florida! (Pinellas County is in the Tampa Bay area and contains the city of St. Petersburg)
1787 Radio Network (also called Liberty Underground) interviewed Pinellas County Commissioner Norm Roche and Commissioner Roche reported that the previous county commission had joined ICLEI. A unnamed liberty activist (ONE PERSON!) spoke to Roche and had done his/her homework and found the ICLEI tie and also explained the problems associated with ICLEI. Commissioner Roche did his homework, too and discovered about a month ago (January 2011) the county had in fact joined ICLEI (The ICLEI web site today confirms that Pinellas County is a member of ICLEI)
Commissioner Roche said, “It’s a real thing. * * * To call it crazy is wrong.”
I am trying to confirm this report. But it is exciting to hear how one liberty activist, armed with his/her homework, (assisted by couple of others) can persuade a county commissioner of a county of nearly one million people (916,542) to get them to leave ICLEI. This would be a major victory if confirmed.
