QuoteI then asked the Commissioner what he would do if he were presented with a recall petition to oust Adams. Leonard says not only would he not sign such a petition, he'd actively campaign against it. Leonard says he believes a recall or an advisory group (as suggested by Oregonian columnist Steve Duin) would devolve into a circus about gay, transgender and other issues, ultimately having nothing to do with Adams mayorship. As it is, Leonard says he believes that city business is moving forward.

I voted for Mayor Adams and I still support him.  Yes he was wrong to lie about the affair.  But this is already beginning to become a witch hunt and the rest of the community is next.  The Oregonian newspaper id so left wing it isn't funny.
