A Tale of Two Campaigns
Whistleblower Senior National Political Affairs Analyst Britt Humus says yesterday we saw our two presidential campaigns going in opposite directions. Obama was still out in Iowa, talking to a group of 582 people (according to his staffers) making his “If You Build Anything, They Will Come” Speech, and Obama’s Joke VP Joe Biden played the Race Card in Spades when he warned Darkies in former slave state Virginia that Republicans Romney and Ryan were going to put them back in chains. Obama’s Super PAC “Accidentally” aired its “Romney Killed Woman with Cancer” Ad in the battleground State of Ohio. Hysterical Feminists declared Romney-Ryan “The Most Dangerous Men in America.” Was it any wonder that in Chillicothe on Tuesday, Romney made headlines when he told Obama to “Take your campaign of division and anger and hate back to Chicago and let us get about rebuilding and reuniting America,” and Romney’s VP Running Mate Paul Ryan got a Rock Star Reception when he visited his Miami University alma mater last night.
Did you hear about Obama telling a rich audience member: “I’m looking for a campaign contribution?” How about DemocRAT voter registration being down by more than 800,000 since 2008 in eight key battleground states? We didn’t think so. No wonder five times as many Americans (59%) think the Mainstream Media is covering up for Obama than the 18% who think they are biased in favor of Romney. Better yet, only 26% trust the media when it comes to politics. Have you seen what passes for “political coverage” in The Fishwrap lately?
Hurley the Historian says on this date in 1969, the Woodstock Music Festival began. Liberals say it was all about “Peace and Love.” But Obama’s “historic” Inauguration attendees in one day made even more of a mess of the Capitol Mall than all of those hippies made of that farmer’s cow pasture in over a week in 1969.- Speaking of making a mess, Trouble-making Tailgater Tino Delgato says Chad Johnson’s 41-day marriage breaks the Kim Kardashian / Chris Humphries record for shortest duration of a reality TV marriage. Chad lost his NFL Job, his TV reality Show, and his wife, all in one day. Oh well, now he can raise his five kids and get a vasectomy. At least he’s got himself a new supply of condoms, so the receipt his wife found shows. Go Figure!!!
- Conservative Curmudgeon Stu Mahlin says Cincinnati is now rated “Number Three” on the latest list of America’s Poorest Cities. What do all of the ten poorest cities have in common? Here’s a hint: not one of them has a White Republican mayor.
Whistleblower Freebee Gourmet Martin Upchuck says Mahogany’s has finally opened and The Fishwrap can’t give them enough free advertising. The reviews are a lot like the restaurant in Hamilton got. Sounds as if the decorations the over-taxed payers paid for are very nice, but when you’re spending other people’s money, why not go for the top of the line?
But what a disaster the City has on its hands. Two hours to get served and out at lunch time? Maybe people who don’t have jobs have time for a two hour lunch! They were out of desserts and it wasn’t even dinner time. On top of it all, the restaurant was empty. Where was the mayor, the city mangler, the chief of police, the fire chief, and city clowncil? They should be eating there every day to support the minority owner who soaked City over-taxed payers for a million dollars. At least today, they’re still in business.
- Two of the RINOs on Blue Ash City Clowncil who voted to help Cincinnati fund its streetcar are Lee Czerwonka and Jim Sumner. In addition to their support for big government, these two are known for their deep desire to advance to higher office despite a lack of talent (Czerwonka), or poor temperament (Sumner).
Lee Czerwonka (pronounced “Lee”) has been a reliable advocate for higher taxes. Earnings taxes, sales taxes, hotel/motel taxes, property taxes, Lee has been supportive of raising them all. Lee donated over $4,500 to Mean Jean Schmidt along with lesser amounts to Tax Hiker of the Year winners Virg “the Scourge” Lovitt and Michelle “Glass Slipper” Schneider. In addition, the allegedly-Republican Czerwonka family contributed David A. Pepper in his run for State Auditor, while giving nothing to the Republican candidate David Yost. Lee badly wants to move on to higher office, but his lackluster record on Blue Ash Clowncil, vote for the Cincinnati streetcar, and a limited understanding of government, not to forget his checkered political contribution history, likely establishes Blue Ash Clowncil as his political ceiling.
Then there’s the deceptive Jim Sumner. Jim likes to tell conservatives he’s one of us and is definitely not like the tax-and-spenders who populate the rest of Blue Ash Clowncil. Only problem is, his record shows otherwise. When citizens were collecting signatures to stop the Pepper/ Portune/ Leis Sales Tax hike, Sumner refused to sign. Jim claims he was the only Clowncilman who opposed Blue Ash’s 25% Earnings Tax hike, yet he voted for it twice, on 8/10/06 and 12/14/06. Jim was also part of the Clowncil that unanimously voiced support for the Hotel/Motel Tax hike. And what kind of conservative would rescind a deal finalized in 2007 just to help Cincinnati build a streetcar?
Like Mr. Czerwonka, Mr. Sumner believes he is too good for Blue Ash City Clowncil and is entitled to serve in higher office. However, Jim’s poor temperment and lack of any notable political skills make such promotion unlikely. When Jim ran for the Republican nomination for County Commissioner in 2004, he had virtually the entire Republican establishment behind him and locked up almost every endorsement, yet could only turn that into a weak 3rd place finish. Sumner lost to a former judge in his 70’s who hadn’t been on the ballot in 12 years. He also placed well behind 2nd place candidate Chris Monzel, who that year had little insider support and ran by far his worst campaign ever. Since then Monzel found his way to the Commission office while Sumner is more irrelevant than ever.
Six College Hill 13 and 14 year olds beat up a 45-year-old man so severely that he spent four days in the hospital because they were “BORED.” Send their parents and the teens to jail together. Lock them in the same cell and see how “Bored” they all get after four days together. These kids probably haven’t spent four days with both parents in their lifetime. Pity the poor teachers who get stuck with these monsters when they finally show up at school.- Speaking of Fools in Schools, the Failed Cincinnati Public Schools has slipped in the failed Ohio rating system from “EFFECTIVE” to “FRAUDULENT.” Does this mean that Superintendent Ronan will have to return her $5,000 bonus check? Don’t look for that story in The Fishwrap, either.
Our Hamilton County GOP candidate for County Recorder must be taking lessons from Commissioner Chris Monzel. You can catch “Wayne Man” Lippert hanging out at the back of the room at TEA Party and Republican Club meetings. He shakes hands with a few folks who know him and whispers to them that he has to take off right away. And just like that, the meeting begins and off he goes. Typically when they get around to introducing the candidates who are there, he’s long gone. Just like at Monday night’s Southwest TEA Party. There was a big crowd and when time came to announce his name, he was AWOL.
Of course Chris Monzel can’t take credit for the trend of ducking out of meetings as they begin. He learned from the master, Schnozzy Heimlich. As a matter of fact, when you say Heimlich maneuver to those politically involved, they usually think of a candidate that shows up at the beginning of a meeting, shakes hands, and leaves. But even the master had his Yoda. And Phil’s Yoda was Steve Chabothead. Chabot attended more meetings and dashed out at the beginning that any Republican in Hamilton County history.
- In the Great White North, a lot of locals in Warren County Ohio are tired of politicians telling them anything to get elected, and then having a total memory loss. They’re also tired of the same people running for office and doing the same things, raising taxes so they can hire more of their friends so they can retire with dignity, while citizens are struggling just to keep the lights on. Then if you try to run against one of these jokers, you always come up one signature short to get on the ballot. They never quit, it’s the same people on the ballot every time. Most times it’s only one person on the ballot. They just don’t get it.
Bluegrass Bureau Chief Ken CamBoo says as usual, 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 sued first and is going to ask questions later with yet another frivolous claim against a NoKY police officer. This time, “Crazy Eric” is claiming his underage, intoxicated client was wrongfully shot and killed by an Elsmere Police officer despite the fact his client tried to run the officer over with a car, twice. Billy Bob the Bluegrass Bailiff says word around the courthouse is that Deters got most of the facts about the case entirely wrong. That’s probably because Deters couldn’t race to the courthouse fast enough after finally getting his Federal law license privileges restored and didn’t bother to wait for an outside police agency to finish its investigation. Billy Bob says this case won’t be a question about who wins, just a question about whether Deters gets sanctioned (again) by the Federal courts for filing yet another frivolous case without bothering to investigate.- At tomorrow’s meeting of the Anderson Township Trustees, how much time will be scheduled to discuss all those items Disgraced Trustee Kevin “Spanky” O’Brien will be including in that Motion to Suppress he plans to file in order to delay his pubic indecency trial, after he was accused of masturbating in a woman’s car.
Finally, at today’s meeting of the Conservative Agenda, Political Insiders were asking Charles Foster Kane if he thought Obama should replace Joe Biden on the ticket, since these days every time Biden opens his mouth, he makes a fool of himself. “I certainly hope not,” our Beloved Whistleblower Publisher explained. “With only “81” more days until the 2012 Presidential Election, every day Obama and the DemocRATS are trying to explain away Biden’s buffoonery, is another day they’re not on their message.”- BREAKING NEWS: He just did it again. Biden just forgot which century we’re living in! Not to worry, DemocRATS, Obama still has 21 more days to replace him, which if the Vice President were consequential enough to have a subscription to The Blower, might have clued him into which century we’re currently in.
