Politics & Government::Dan is still Dan

Isn't the point not about who's offended, but by what it reveals about Healy's attitude to most of the city?
He claims to be able to do the best job for everyone - but when he's among his loyal followers it's straight US vs THEM.
And he acts the same way as Mayor. His actual agenda is to care about the developers, the county pols, the HCDO faithful. For everybody else he'll show up to your event and sing a song, but forget it when it comes to funding or legislation or keeping a sound eye on the budget.
I can't get how anybody would try to defend or explain this one away. It's not just Healy's dis of newcomers - it's the way this translates into how his administration functions.
