The posting by Commissioner McLaughlin regarding the MPR debate  is a nice 
attempt at spin. Claiming victory doesn't make it  true.  McLaughlin's post 
claims the Commissioner clearly laid out his  vision.  What vision is that?  Is it 
the vision that puts 150 cops on  the street in three years? Wait, it's not 
150 cops but 250 in five  years.  No wait again, it's not really 50 cops per 
year but a net  25 because he forgot to account for annual attrition.  And does 
anyone  really know his "vision" for paying for these additional cops??  He's  
had almost as many "visions" for public safety as he's had campaign  
managers.
