White & Edwards: We're tired of this MediaSource topic!

KHOU-11's Doug Miller reports that City Council delayed a vote on funding for Houston MediaSource today, and Mayor White is back to sounding perturbed:

"You can't stop people from complaining. And, you know, I've never met anyone who's been forced to watch TV," said Mayor Bill White.

Councilmember Ada Edwards sounds perturbed as well:

"We've never spent this much time on the crime lab. We've never spent this much time on women who come and say that they've been attacked, or whatever. We, we don't ... It's amazing," complained Councilmember Ada Edwards.

Yes, it's just "amazing" that Councilmember Edwards' fellow elected officials bring their issues to City Council. It's almost as if their constituents elected them *gasp* to participate fully in the local political process, rather than just to approve Mayor Boss Hogg White's agenda!
