Some people collect stamps. Others collect grievances. Fountain Hills progressives, however, seem to collect enemies — chief among them, Reclaim Our Town (ROT).
They act as though ROT is some sinister cabal, a shadow government of lawn signs and secret code words. But let’s be honest: it’s just a Conservative PAC, not the Illuminati. Crystal Cavanaugh started the group and she is a very sensible lady, espousing a common sense Conservative agenda. (Full disclosure: I am not a member of ROT.)
The left’s latest outrage? Demanding to know where town council members “stand” on ROT. The accusation? Being “ROT-aligned.” Which, let’s face it, is just progressive speak for having opinions they don’t like. Here’s the reality check: ROT is conservative.
