Dante Ramos begins his Boston Globe column by observing that “in Massachusetts, faulting projects for their failure to achieve perfection is a time-honored way of blocking them.”
Globe columnist: Newton should build on that parking lot

Oh please Greg ! Let’s throw in the kitchen sink . Desperate times demand desperate measures I guess. Who is Dante Ramos to preach to us like this?
Is he a taxpayer in the city? Does he have skin in the game?
Blue,
I lot of us read the Globe. I realize you don’t support the project, but the support of the Globe, the Tab, the League of Women Voters, and many groups I’m missing does mean something. Arguing that Mr. Ramos doesn’t live in Newton does nothing to discuss or refute the article. And I do agree with one of his central points, that asking for the perfect project is a time honored method of blocking projects.
