why use Drupal for city government?

Hi Folks-
Can anyone point to a list of resources/arguments describing why Drupal is clearly the best CMS choice for city government?
Anything that takes a comparative approach and considers open source vs. commercial products is ideal.
You don't have to sell Drupal to me, I'm already a fan... I'm just doing some homework.
Thanks in advance for any ideas you might have-

Contributed Modules Used by the British Columbia Public Service's Intranet (@Work)

The BC Public Service, an organization of 30,000 employees across an immense province, relaunched its corporate intranet in April 2010. In just 50 working days from development to production, a tiny team built an interactive intranet to support employee communications and collaboration. This work was completed within the existing site budget using an open-source platform.

These are some of the modules we used:

Contributed Modules Used by Whitehouse.gov

I and many others have asked for a list of the contributed modules used to build Whitehouse.gov. After it was pointed out to me that David Cole had displayed the list in one of his slides at DrupalCon—San Francisco, I found the archived presentation video, viewed it, and paused on that frame until I had my best guess of what each fuzzy entry said. Then I confirmed names by crosschecking that list against the list on Drupal.org of all modules available for Drupal 6. For all who are interested, this post not only lists these modules but also links to the respective project page for each module.

If you are looking into creating a "Government" distribution profile, this should give you a good start.

Where plans for Drupal 7 are to move all or part of a module into core, I have noted that next to the respective entry. Generally when only part of a module will be moved into core the remaining components will continue to be available for Drupal 7 on the same project page as before.
