You can bet the farm that Councilman Bishop has already got somebody that passes the Vice Mayor of Lancasters smell test for the Palmdale Planning Commission appointment. We all know who Councilman Bishop really works for and it isn’t Palmdale. It’s always gonna be who brought you to the party. Why apply ?
Aja says
Councilman Bishop works for the people that elected him. Some bitter people are never satisfied, always finding something to gripe about.
Gag says
Bishop works for his daddy Marv. He hasn’t had an original though since Marv got him under his spell at Broken Bit.
Aja says
Bishop works for the people that elected him. Sorry, you lose.
