Hilarious cartoon! He'll be fine. He's obviously a smart cookie. He said "only temporarily, folks!" What he did not say was, "I ain't no dummy." Wonder if he regrets even the temporary acceptance now that that new report came out slamming Metro and the oversight group.

Welcome aboard. I think he's a fine choice, and a relatively impartial outsider is exactly what we need.

Give me my fucking dime back. $25K is outrageous for a "financially strapped" system. Do it for $10K or get the fuck out of town.

Uh.. Anon 11:28? We best not actually say that. He might actually do it - get out of town. Then we're stuck with the usual ones that seem to always stick around. :-D
