Why is this man so angry?

Click on the above video file from the January 2015 IOP City Council Meeting to get a taste of Jimmy Ward, PPO.  (Perpetually Pissed Off)  It is not as obvious on the video as it is when seen live, but Jimmy is just “mad as hell and not going to take it anymore.”  Why?  Who knows.

This is part of the reason Jimmy has never been able to get “his” legislation passed.  In a representative democracy you have to make concessions and build coalitions that are for the common good.  Being grouchy, angry and acerbic just doesn’t endear others to want to work with you.
