In yesterday’s column, the N&R’s Allen Johnson asks some questions about the proposed $205 million in Greensboro city bonds. But then today’s lead editorial offers up a half-hearted endorsement of the bonds, saying “(t)oday’s economic conditions shouldn’t be the deciding factor on these bonds. The city’s long-term needs should be.”

Watching football yesterday afternoon, some friends and I (once again) wondered about the fact that the manager of an entertainment venue that loses money every year is the city’s highest-paid employee, and voters have to choose whether or not to hand him $50 million.
