Cyndi McNamara is, too, a MAGA — if MAGA means “McNamara Against Government Asininity.”

Since coming our way, she has done her homework, sought out the public’s concerns, and been available and open and conscientious throughout. Most important, she actually plows her way through the slippery mountain of paper and dross data generated by planners, consultants, engineers, experts and other know-it-alls who generate hackneyed ideas and big bills. And whom do they work for?

She is clear-sighted, informed and measured — a necessary asset and corrective on an often clueless, self-serving, brain-dead board. And her cards are on the table, which is seldom the norm.

Michael Iasilli, a vociferous Democrat, is attempting to legislate for more civil public discourse — if only. McNamara, always civil, has governed reasonably and informed. If more civil discourse is a civic value truly espoused by the Democratic Committee machine, they could begin with an apology for the smear campaign they are waging against McNamara. “Make Amends Guys, Awright” — MAGA.

And the public can express their displeasure with dirty tactics by voting her back into office.

I wish her good luck while wondering why any alert, intelligent, diligent, responsible and good person, in the prime of life, with a great family and a vigorous life, chooses to fight for the public good in such a life-wasting, dingy, calcified venue.

Luckily for us, she does.
