Happy Washington’s Birthday, Everybody!
- Hurley the Historian says on this date in 1732, George Washington, the Father of our Country was born. Shouldn’t we have a National Holiday to celebrate the occasion? That’s why our Quote for Today Committee selected Washington’s “Few men have virtue to withstand the highest bidder.” Do you think the Father of Our Country had Obama in mind?
Whistleblower Presidential Historian Dorian Grady says today would’ve been Washington’s 279th birthday, but on “President’s Day” disrespected George Washington once again. According to Freedom Warrior host Radio Greg Halvorson (“Failure to Honor Washington: a Triumph of the Left”) it’s “The equivalent of ‘every leader gets a prize,’ it mocks history, inspires no one, and displays the lengths to which fools go to be foolish. There is no equality between George Washington and James Polk, between Thomas Jefferson and Millard Fillmore, and to assert otherwise says: 1) that no president is different from any other; 2) that individuals must bow to the Collective; and 3) that history is a dull, generic ride.
“This, of course, derives from the Left, which spreads tales – even a few false ones – of racism amongst the Founders, and which last year had members of the NAACP hide General Washington from view. Indeed, they covered the statue of George Washington with a black box, even as they praised the author of the line, “Free at last, free at last, thank God Almighty, we are free at last!”
Maybe that’s why Conservative Curmudgeon Stu Mahlin said, “Hey! Maybe someday when the Right is back on top, MLK Day can be changed to Protesters’ Day.
- One of the scholars at The Conservative Agenda’s Institute of Higher Learning pointed out that The Blower has long referred to the Presidents Bush as 41 and 43, and wonders if we should not now number Adams 2 and 6, Harrison 9 and 23, Johnson 17 and 35, and Roosevelt 25 and 31. Our “Question of the Week” could be: Which are related and how closely?
- In Washington, our DC Newsbreaker says with only “257” more days until the 2012 Presidential Elections, White House Spokes Dweeb Jay Cardboard spent Monday defending $4-a-gallon gasoline, after being under fire from Newt Gingrich over Obama’s record driving up the price of fuel. Meanwhile, Dan Quayle says it looked like White House staffers took that three-day weekend after all, announcing the vice president’s schedule following the President’s Day holiday, when staffers reported Joe Biden was off to “Road Island.”
- Yesterday, everybody was talking about That Corrupt Evicted Lying Plagiarizing Meddling Overblown Bought-and-paid-For Tax-and-Spend Wrinkle-Puss RINO Bitch-in-a-Ditch Mean Jean Schmidt’s TV interview with TV5’s Jack Atherton when she claimed to be “honest and above reproach.”
- But today, maybe they’ll all be talking about that mailer from the Campaign for Primary Accountability pointing out Old Wrinkle-Puss had been named one of the “Most Corrupt: by the Citizens for Responsibility & Ethics in Washington.
- Republicans for Higher Taxes celebrate the big groundbreaking for the all-important Cincinnati streetcar. They also took the time to applaud some of the unsung heroes who made it happen. One is State Representative Peter “Streetcar” Stautberg, who opposed a Charter Amendment which would have stopped the streetcar. The other is Little Dweeb Lonnie Bowling, running or State Rep-tile as a Republican, but campaigned for liberal DemocRAT Mark Mallory in 2009 against Real Republican Brad Wenstrup.
But did it really mean anything? The Blower photo showed the ground was filled back in 30 minutes later. The City still has no idea how it’s going to pay for $20 million (and counting) in utilities removal costs that have already broken the budget.
- Is the construction of the Trolley Folly going to bring down Union Terminal? It is the City of Cincinnati, not Hamilton County, who owns that building. The county has too many of its own unfunded needs of its own to be subsiding buildings for local governments, which leaves the city in charge of making this repair happen or not happen. While the City can’t spend its capital budget dollars on police and fire, they can spend their capital dollars on large-scale building repairs. Is it true that Mayor Mallory is so obsessed with his Trolley Folly that he’s willing to sacrifice Union Terminal?
- Meanwhile, Ludicrous William Peskin, the chief of police of Elmwood Place, the guy with the dumb-looking goatee, has now come up with a fairy tale explanation as to what happened to the ammunition clip missing from Elmwood Place police Sergeant Gary Darty’s duty gun, you know, the police sergeant who is suing Peskin in Hamilton County court.
“It’s elemental,” Peskin explains with his tongue firmly in his cheek. “Darty earlier drove to St. Bernard to qualify for gun-shooting accuracy on January 23rd. When he was returning after the target shooting, his ammo clip merely slipped out of his gun and wedged between the seat of his squad car.” Peskin says said clip was even later found in the squad car seat by one of Peskin’s friends. “So don’t blame me”, says shifty chief Peskin.
Peskin then asked if anyone would like to buy the Brooklyn Bridge from him. “Honest, I’ll sell it for a steal”, Peskin said.
- And in today’s Black History Moment, in Exton, Pennsylvania, six feet four inch, three hundred pound Verdon Taylor, 32, took off all his clothes and entered a Wal-Mart store in Exton, Pennsylvania. He walked through the store naked and ended up shoplifting a pair of socks. Maybe he should have stolen some underwear first. Police arrested him after using a stun-gun on him.
- Hamilton County DemocRAT chairman Tim Burka is said to be ready to name perennial loser Icky Vicki Wulsin (Millionaire-Indian Hill) to replace deceased Hamilton County coroner Anant Bhati.
For several years, Wulsin has run (and lost) as a candidate for the Ohio-02 House of Representatives. Wulsin has never had a medical practice. She prefers the ease of public health positions. Despite lying about it, she eagerly worked for a foundation which injected dying AIDs victims with the malaria parasite.
Wulsin runs a highly questionable private organization based in Africa called Soteni. She refuses to reveal financial information of this mystery-shrouded charity which some have said is her personal cash cow.
Is Tim Burka really dumb enough to name Icky Vicki as the Hamilton County coroner? The Blower certainly hopes not.
- Our Clermont Crusader recalls Disgraced Former County Commissioner Archie Wilson was elected in part on his campaign promise to give all county employees a raise and to reopen part of the jail that was closed. At a meeting last January, Commissioner Wilson said he believes not having jail space available is like “raising a spoiled child that never gets punished”. According to records of that meeting, Wilson said he wanted more jail beds because “everyday, more people are on pills and heroin and they rob and prostitute themselves for money.”
Words to live by, or words that would come back to haunt him, you know what I mean? So saith the pipe layer.
- The Anderson Tea Party’s Suezilla Hardenberg reports from last week’s Lincoln Day Dinner in Brown County: The crowd was milling around before Rick Santorum arrived. I walked up to Ohio RINO Party Boss Kevin DeWhine and said, “I think what you did with the State Central Committee votes was despicable.” He was momentarily stunned as my greeting sunk in, he replied “Thank you,” continued to smile and let go of my hand and walked away. The Emperor has no clothes, folks, and he knows that we know it.
The Anderson Tea Party has also published its “Conservative Voters Guide.” See which candidates they support and which races they wouldn’t take a stand. Also discover what our Tea Partiers have to say about the Forrest Gump School District’s humongous tax hike so township property owners of $200,000 houses can pay $2,000-a-year to support the greedy teachers and administrators.
- In Saturday’s item about $tate Rep-tile for $ale Peter $tautberg’s list of 56 supporters, Freddy Factchecker keeps looking at the list and so far he hasn’t found a single one of those Columbus lobbyists who lives in the 27th Ohio House District.
That would also disqualify all of them from being included on The List of the 50 Most Fascinating People in Anderson to be announced later this year.
- Meanwhile, Angry Andersonians want to know if Disgraced Anderson Township Trustee Kevin P. O’Brien’s house at 7964 Hopper Road in “the third most affluent neighborhood in America” is in foreclosure for a mere $373,137.80, The Blower wants to know if The Forest Hills Urinal will ever report any of those facts its readers, either. Any bets?
- Finally, at yesterday’s meeting of the Conservative Agenda, Political Insiders were asking Charles Foster Kane about that public access TV programming Anderson’s own Whistleblower Newswire was developing right there in Anderson Township. “Several projects are already in development,” our Beloved Whistleblower Publisher explained. People who want to be celebrities on TV have already begun sending us their creative concepts and YouTube auditions at CFK-TV@whistleblower-newswire.com,” and some of the folks on the CFK-TV Production Crew had an idea for our very own station I.D., although we could always use more.
Bluegrass Blather
- Bluegrass Bureau Chief Ken CamBoo says Kentucky’s U.S. Senator Rand Paul will speak in Covington and Alexandria on Friday. His schedule includes a speech to the Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce’s “Government Forum” in Covington from 11:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. at the Grand, 440 Madison Avenue and a town hall meeting hosted by the Northern Kentucky Tea Party at 2 p.m. in Alexandria at the Calvin Perry Community Center at 8536 W. Main Street. The Blower wonders who the Randy One is supporting for President these days.
- Someone said Boondoggle Judge Executive Once Moore signed Grover Norquist’s Americans for Tax Reform’s pledge to oppose any tax increases. So how hard is it to sign something with your fingers crossed?
And Ken CamBoo wonders if Judge Once Moore is growing that beard back because he feels it may tickle a female voter’s fancy, or is he planning on performing as Christ on the Cross in Easter Services throughout the Fourth District.
- And there was another “Told You So Moment” in our Northern Kentucky newsroom yesterday when The Fishwrap reported 20 people had applied for that Superintendent’s job at the Newport Independent Schools, since “Delhi Mike” Brant retired in disgrace after somebody actually audited the books. The Blower reported years ago he was massaging the data and would someday be caught.
- Congratulations to Boondoggle County Commissioner Charles Kenner, who is now in his second year serving his country as a dentists in the US Army! He said he was compelled last year to help the Army, and floss our boys and girls in uniform. This snitch wants to know how to enlist, get a $50,000.00 signing bonus, and never have to see the inside of a barracks. Maybe that money was too easy to pass up.
- The Cabal out to Destroy Eric “Call Me Crazy,” Big Mouth, Most Sanctioned, Ambulance Chaser, No Count of a Radio Host, Shameless Self Promoter, Willie Wannabe, Why Haven’t I Been Disbarred, Who Likes Bulldogs and Failed Roadhouse Operator Deters, wants to know if Radio Hottie Lisa Wells will be mentioning “Crazy Eric’s” recent humiliating defeats, when his frivolous lawsuits were laughed out of court. Lovely Lisa, who’s being generously paid by WLW Hate Radio to do the same job “Crazy Eric” did for free, says, “Covering all of ‘Crazy Eric’s’ humiliating defeats would take too long, because there are so many of them.”
