WIGHTMAN ON BROWN: "INCOMPETENT...BEST PERSON FOR THE JOB"

(Ed.'s Note: Is is schizophrenia, dementia, or just a case of a woman's prerogative to change her mind? That's what some of out three readers are wondering when they pointed out that Brownsville-South Padre Island International Airport director Larry Brown has been on the love-hate roller coaster of blogger Robert Wightman. The post below show our Great Prognosticator of Past Events at his mercurial best.) 
August 17, 2014
"LARRY BROWN, BROWNSVILLE AIRPORT AVIATION DIRECTOR - "I LIE BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT I AM PAID TO DO"
"Other than incompetence there is no reason why the city cannot move the airport to 511. Larry Brown lied about the price tag for a reason - it was to keep happy the inept leadership which keeps him at the airport. This is how Brownsville politics always work - you can be incompetent so long as you go along with keeping Brownsville from moving forward."

WHAT’S UP AT THE AIRPORT? IS THERE A RUNWAY EXPANSION OR NOT?
THIS IS A MUST ISSUE IN THE UP AND COMING CITY ELECTION
June 4, 2014
"I want to be clear - Larry Brown is the best person for the job at the airport. He is truly an advocate for Brownsville. He knows his business. The problem is - he cannot wave a magic wand to make things happen. The candidates for mayor need to read this and find out exactly what it is going to take to make sure Larry Brown has the support he needs...

"If Larry Brown’s current prediction is accurate it will be 10 years in the making. This is not leadership - this is a failed city commission. Again Larry is not the problem - he knows what needs to get done - he simply has his hands tied. Larry could be the most intelligent and competent person in aviation today, but so long as we have inept leadership within the Brownsville city commission Larry will remain a miracle cure going nowhere because no one knows how to give an injection."

I was on a flight from Dallas to BRO last Friday (last flght of the day) and it took over 45 minutes...almost the time of the flight from Dallas to retrieve bags. Cars were parked outside the terminal and there was no security in sight (outside the terminal). Cars unattended, lights blaring and no one in charge. While the airlines are responsible for moving bags from the plane....there was no sigh of adult supervision at the airport.

Another thing Larry Brown...at the Harlingen Airport disabled veterans park free....why not extend that courtesy in Brownsville. My parking fees would have more than paid for gas to use Harlingen's airport.

larry brown needs to go, he has been at the city way too long, time to retire him out to pasture, he has been at the city since the 1980;s left at one time to cc and came back in a few months, had a nervous breakdown, his timing chain and sprocket fell off, but he was welcome back at the brownsvile airport with open arms, I think its time for him to leave period. cca

This is a Looney tunes guy (esta loca) that's all this guy is, he has what 30 years at the city now, so why don't he just retire and let the City hire a professional really run the airport and not a compadre, you hear me cabler?
