Again, just raising the question: Why were the words, "a self-proclaimed anarchist" edited out of the story about Cara Jennings?

Below are two images from the Post's online edition:

This image is from Wednesday (4/6). Note the words, "self-proclaimed anarchist" in the second paragraph.

This image is from the next day (4/7) and also as it appears in the print edition (page B1, below the fold). The reference to "anarchist" was edited out.

Everyone knows this is leading up to a grand editorial by the Post, so stay tuned for that tribute. For that exuberantly gushing praise to happen they'll have to ignore all the terrible things she did to this City as an elected commissioner, like the gutting of the code enforcement department. The work continues to this day to repair that damage, which was done intentionally during terrible economic times here in Lake Worth. Anarchists, if you didn't know, aren't big fans of code enforcement.

Cara Jennings' video was written about previously on this blog and you can read that using this link.

So why was Jennings in Gainesville? The consensus among people I've spoken with is she skipped out of Lake Worth after her chosen candidate in the last election, Ryan Hartman, was trounced by Vice Mayor Scott Maxwell. There's much wringing of hands among the Anarchists and their supporters over how badly they misjudged the mood of the public; it's no surprise Jennings would seek a friendlier place to hang around for a while til things settle down.

The other consensus is that Jennings really screwed things up by using the word "asshole" in the video. Her message was mostly a good one and needed to be stated (and I happen to agree with her on issues such as ObamaCare and Medicare), but using that word took the focus off the issues and made Jennings the focus instead. That's too bad.

But with Jennings' politics it's always been about the Cult of Personality anyhow; no big surprise there:
