Newsies the world over, or at least the country coast to coast, should be filled with admiration for this legal bulldog and his Judicial Watch organization.

Not notably the case, however. Thing is, he’s going after the wrong people in their view, or the view of most of them, sad to say. Does not fit the dominant narrative.

Mayor Lori urges something she does not want:

She called for “a transparent and fulsome subject matter hearing to address questions including consequences for other TIF districts, affordable housing options, plans for minority- and women-owned businesses, and impacts on diversity, population density, schools, traffic, and other factors.”

Do see the problem? If not, look up fulsome:

offensive to good taste, especially as being excessive; overdone or gross: fulsome praise that embarrassed her deeply; fulsome décor.

disgusting; sickening; repulsive: a table heaped with fulsome mounds of greasy foods.

excessively or insincerely lavish: fulsome admiration.

(Unless she means “abundant or copious,” #5 of 5 approved usages.)

RELATED WORDS are no help:

bombastic, buttery, canting, cloying, coarse, extravagant, fawning, flattering, glib, grandiloquent, hypocritical, immoderate, ingratiating, inordinate, insincere, magniloquent, mealy-mouthed, nauseating, offensive, oily

Please. No more of such talk. We have come to expect more from the pride of Massilon.
