The Whistleblower Week in Review

  • image005OUR NUMBER ONE OBAMA DEAD VETERANS SCANDAL STORY THIS WEEK was in 2008 when Obama said, “When I’m in charge Veterans will get the VA Care they deserve.
  • OUR NUMBER TWO OBAMA DEAD VETERANS SCANDAL STORY THIS WEEK was in 2014 Obama said, “I promise we will find out who is in charge of giving Veterans substandard care at the Veterans Administration.  
  • AND OUR NUMBER THREE OBAMA DEAD VETERANS SCANDAL STORY THIS WEEK, just in time for Memorial Day on Monday, Obama said he wouldn’t hold his VA Chief accountable for the Dead Veterans Scandal, praised him as “Great Public Servant,” but neglected to say, “You’re doing a heck of a job, Sheckie!”
  •  MONDAY in our Special “Bluegrass Primary” E-dition,” The Blower said “If you don’t vote, you’ll be leaving the decision to someone even dumber than you are!”

We Won’t Endorse….

by Charles Foster Kane
Beloved Whistleblower Publisher

            image007Before every election, The Whistleblower-Newswire is always deluged with calls, faxes, text messages, and e-mails asking which candidates and issues we plan to endorse. As the official publication for all that scrambling, speculation, mud-slinging, and back-stabbing which will be forever known as Bluegrass Indecision 2014, our readers have every right to expect nothing less. But the fact that only one day before the Bluegrass Primary Elections on May 20 (May 21 for DemocRATS), after all of our penetrating reporting and scathing commentary, there can be any doubt about which candidates or issues we might cheer or jeer is further tribute to the astounding even-handedness of our always fair-and-balanced journalism.

  •  TUESDAY in our Special “Bluegrass Indecision 2014 Update” E-dition, The Blower said, “We’re waiting to see how much a Fishwrap endorsement is really worth!” and our “Real E-Mails from Real Subscribers” included:

image009The big day has finally arrived, but will the National Spotlight really be on Kentucky tonight to see the results of the Bluegrass Primary Elections? —Whistleblower Senior National Political Affairs Analyst Britt Humus

Today’s turnout in Kentucky might not match The Blower’s single digit prediction, but with me running for U.S. Senator in the DemocRAT Primary to see who gets to be outspent by Bitch McConnell in Kentucky’s U.S. Senate race in November, it could be the lowest turnout in history. —Chief Election Official Alison Wondergams Grimes

Just remember what Jesse “The Body” Ventura always said: “If you don’t vote, you’ll be leaving the decision to someone even dumber than you are.” —Your Quote for Today Committee

People who don’t vote have no right to complain. —Beloved Whistleblower Publisher Charles Foster Kane

For weeks, everybody’s been wondering if history would once again repeat itself, like when TEA Party Candidate Rand Paul sent the establishment’s Trey Grayson back to Harvard in shame from his ass-kicking in that U.S. Senate Race GOP Primary. —Bluegrass Bureau Chief Ken CamBoo

  • WEDNESDAY in our Special “Thank You For Not Voting!” E-dition,The Blower said, “A lot of the people who voted, shouldn’t have!”

It Was Just More of the Same

    image012Six states held primaries on Tuesday, but everybody hereabouts couldn’t stop talking about how the entire nation couldn’t stop talking this year’s historic so-called GOP Primary in Kentucky between Bitch McConnell and TEA Party Challenger Matt Bevin. Yeah, right! The only suspense watching this race has always been McConnell’s margin of victory. Oh, the Hype!

Last weekend, our Feckless Fishwrappers declared voters were “Disengaged,” needed to step up, and head out to the polls. And in the past, The Blower has also been guilty of the same silliness to goad people into going to the polls.  Our Quote for Today Committee even recalls our using Jesse “The Body” Ventura’s “If you don’t vote, you’ll be leaving the decision to someone even dumber than you are.”

But last Sunday, Skaggie Maggie’s Rubber Stamp Idiotorial Board was once again whining about Low Voter Turnout. But isn’t “Not Voting” just like a vote? Perhaps the voting challenged among us fails to grasp the consequences of decisions made by those who do take office. Kentucky, after all, has paid a high price for electing too many politicians who refuse to implement policies needed to compete effectively with other states for genuine economic growth.

In an article for the Cato Institute, Will Wilkinson said, “If you want to be civic-minded, your duty isn’t to fill in ballots just to fill in ballots. You shouldn’t do it in ignorance, out of emotion, or to win approval from your political friends. Your duty is to vote well — to participate in a way that, at the very least, makes the outcome no worse.

  • THURSDAY, in our Special “Ignorance and Apathy” E-dition,The Blower said, “What the hell is a “Judge Executive” anyway?”

We Were Only Joking

        image014Yesterday, The Blower was only kidding about all those stupid voters in Kentucky and apathetic people staying away from the polls in droves on Primary Election Day, but darned if they all weren’t all using it as a script.  At least all those Dumbed-Down, Self-Absorbed, Media-Influenced, Celebrity-Obsessed, Politically-Correct, Uninformed, Short-Attention-Span, Free-Stuff Grabbing, Low-Information Obama Supporters Who Put Obama In The White House—Twice, showed their support for Alison Wondergams Grimes, so Obama Supporters in the Press had  at least one thing to cheer about. Matt Bevin got crushed by McConnell, but at least he beat the spread.

IS THE TEA PARTY DEAD? If it’s not, it must be on life support. Obviously, people aren’t really mad enough because they’re still going to take it some more. Even after five histrionic years of the Obama administration, we still haven’t felt enough pain yet. Folks still must have a little room in their anal cavities to have a little more shoved up there. What was Albert Einstein’s definition of insanity? “Doing the same thing and over again and expecting different results.” Well, when John Q. Stupid keeps reelecting the same damn people, it’s no wonder our country has a government it truly deserves.

  • FRIDAY, in our “Just Another Guest Column E-dition, The Blower explained, “But It’s Still the Same Old BS!”

Now Let’s Meet Today’s Guest Editor:

          image016Why, it’s none other than Clermont County’s “TEA Party Ted” Stevenot, whose Ohio Liberty Coalition should now start schooling all those other local TEA Party organizations how to take over central committees one precinct at a time like he did in Clermont County, and start using the word “TEA” for “Taxes Enough Already” in their own names while they’re at it.

That’s why The Blower, which takes pride in rewarding successful Conservative grassroots organizers to be this week’s guest editor and choose three items plus a Quickie for today’s E-dition from our Current Cadre of Conservative Columnists and Contributors, and our Quote for Today Committee chose George Clooney’s “Anytime there’s an actual grassroots movement that isn’t funded by people trying to create a grassroots movement, I find that interesting.”

  • FRIDAY, in our “Special “Missing Person” E-dition, The Blower said, “Someone Out There Knows Something!”

image017

  • SATURDAY in our Special “Pre-Memorial Day Weekend Getaway” E-dition, The Blower asked, “Now For Something Really Patriotic”

          image019This weekend, we’re planned to write something truly inspirational about all those brave men and women who answered our country’s call and gave the last full measure of their devotion, fighting for freedom from the Halls of Montezuma to the deserts of Afghanistan and Iraq. We even planned to show you a lot of patriotic videos, like this one.

Hurley the Historian said we should review how Memorial Day has its roots in a post-Civil War holiday called “Decoration Day,” explain how observance of the holiday has changed over the years, and urge that the legacy never be forgotten

  •  SATURDAY in our Special “Distaste of Cincinnati” E-dition, The Blower said, “It’s like we always say: There’s no accounting for “Taste!”

Your Taste Buds Will Tingle

           image021Where will the Distaste of Cincinnati be this weekend? As usual, the Distaste of America’s Worst Run City will be downtown. But scared suburbanites still don’t need Demon Lynchmob, Rhymin’ Reverends, Ken “Mad Dawg” Lawson, SMLP Smithermouth, producers of “Cops,” Cincinnati’s Former Dainty DemocRAT Mayor Mark Mallory, Disgruntled DemocRAT Fake Judge Tracie Hunter, or the rest of Judge Mr$. $tan Che$ley’s political posse of racial terrorists to tell them to stay away. They will figure that out for themselves, simply because it’s a really overrated event. Urging black people to stay away is not much of a threat. In fact, if Black Boycotter Nate “Rhymes With Hate” Livingston could positively guarantee no Negros would ever show up, downtown crowds would undoubtedly double.

image022This year, Liz Roger’s Over-Taxed Payer Subsidized Million Dollar Soul Food Bistro has a booth so black folks can feel more welcome. 

H. L. Mencken once remarked that “nobody ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American public.” That goes triple for the tri-state. Remember, these are the same foolish folks who actually voted to spend a billion dollars for a football stadium to be used ten times a year by a team that just couldn’t be hyped enough.

More Political Insight

image024

  • image025MEMORIAL DAY COUNTDOWN: Tomorrow is Memorial Day, the Countdown Clock on the Whistleblower Web Page is clicking away, and politicians are busting their bandwidth sending out e-mails to tell everybody how patriotic they are, even Disingenuous DemocRATS like Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown. The Blower says maybe we should invite all the politicians we know to a barbeque.
  • OUR FECKLESS FISHWRAPPERS: Did they finally figure it out? Friday’s idiotorial says it’s now time to get the U.S. Bank Arena ready for the next big opportunity, especially after The Blower’s prediction that Cincinnati would not be chosen for the 2016 Republican National Convention came true.  But Skaggie Maggie’s Rubber Stampers still aren’t connecting the dots. Wasting a gazillion dollars on Stupid Streetcars, White Guilt Freedom Centers, and other Touchy-Feely Projects will never bring the big bucks to this poorly run town.

In Another Event Lost, Tailgaiting Troublemaker Tino Delgato says, so Cincinnati recently lost out on the 2016 Republican National Convention. One of the reasons given is the 40-year-old Coliseum and its current dilapidated setup. Keep in mind just across the river is the brand new NKU Bank of Kentucky arena. Or had the Reds or Bengals put retractable roofs on their facilities Cincinnati also would have another option. Indianapolis put a retractable roof on their NFL football facility. They have hosted one Super Bowl, 1 NCAA Final Four and a NCAA regional. They also have the NFL combine each year. They have paid for that retractable roof 10 times over. But Indy still does not have a Folly Trolley. Oh wait, I did leave out the choir games Cincinnati hosted. Go Figure!!!

image026Tino also says he sees Red “meter” bags on parking meters downtown mostly between Race and Main from 5th to 7th.  The bags seem to go on those meters around 6:00 pm. These same meters used to provide free parking after 6pm. Now drivers are forced to use a parking garage or pay a valet $5-10. Often the valet then parks your car at one of those SAME Red Bagged meters. Is the city charging for those Red bags and if so how much? No one seems to know but I now have a Red Bag for private use. Go Figure!!!

Tino adds that he has now seen many NFL players sue the NFL twice for improper care. One suit has been “settled” and another has just been launched. As a long time NFL fan and season ticket holder I feel it is time for a fans’ class action law suit. I think I may have TDS or Tailgater Distress Syndrome. After 20 plus years of tailgating I find I am forgetting things, getting older quicker and subject to mood swings based on my teams’ success or failure. I hope to launch a class action law suit to offset my future with TDS. The back of my season tickets do NOT warn about TDS nor does my season parking pass. Go Figure!!!

streicher

  • OUR FOP LODGE #69 SNITCH says Kimball Perry’s Fishwrap report that the Police Union told former Cincinnati Police Chief Tom Streicher he couldn’t join was richly ironic. That rigged 71-3 vote against a national leader in policing and 40-year-veteran cops’ cop was clearly orchestrated by a union leader who was not only not run out of the FOP, but reelected president, after a court civilly adjudicated her a thief and liar. It was obviously orchestrated by Union President Kathy Harrell to try to embarrass Streicher. Our Snitch says FOP rules permit retired officers to join as life members.When CPD officers were killing young black men and racially profiling, their reputation went into the toilet. Chief Streicher transformed his officers’ reputation from loathed to loved. The current FOP leadership seems determined to turn it back to cover Ms. Harrell’s own misdeeds.
  • REPUBLICANS FOR HIGHER TAXES bemoan Jonathan Dever’s official 66-vote win over Tax Hikin’ Rick Bryan.  Poor Ricky complains that a “strong negative campaign” upended him, and that he ran a positive-only campaign.  R4ht notes 5 instances of negative campaigning that the Bryan campaign didn’t engage in. (wink, wink).
  • HURLEY THE HISTORIAN says on this date in 1861, President Lincoln suspended the writ of habeas corpus (through which a person could seek relief from his unlawful detention, for those of you FCPS honor students).
  • THAT’S WHY OUR QUOTE FOR TODAY COMMITTEE chose George Thomas’ “No government of the Centre would seek powers to imprison individuals who have committed no crime merely on the say-so of “experts” who believe they might commit a crime.”
  • THE LATEST POLLS: Whistleblower Pollster Ron Rasmussen says American voters have more information than ever, it seems, but the real question is, do they know it?
  • image027APPRECIATED IN ANDERSON: Patriotic People are thankful America has a day like Memorial Day to remember members of the military who’ve given their all and died serving in our county’s armed forces. That’s why Post 318 also is helping emphasize the importance of Memorial Day by participating in the annual Anderson Township Memorial Day Bell Ceremony, which begins at noon Monday, May 26, at the Anderson Center, 7850 Five Mile Road. It includes a ceremonial rifle salute, laying of a wreath on the lake at the site and the reading of names of deceased members of the armed forces. Sign in by 11:45 a.m. if you wish to have your loved one’s name read during the ceremony. The Blower hopes PFC James Miller IV, for whom the Memorial Highway was designated on Beechmont Avenue between Markey Road and Nagel Road will finally be officially recognized.

image028Another Andersonian Whistleblower readers will be saying prayers for this weekend is 21-year-old Turpin High School graduate Brogan Dulle, who’s still missing. Contrary to a news report on Friday, Brogan’s clothing has NOT been found. Volunteers continued searching the UC area for Brogan or any clues on Saturday. Follow this story on Facebook.

But one person who doesn’t deserve any adulation from Applauding Andersonians this weekend is Jeff Ruby, recipient of this year’s “WTF Were We Thinking Award” from the Anderson Area Chamber of Commerce on June 3. Maybe State Rep-Tile Peter $tautberg was unavailable.  

  • image030BLUEGRASS BUREAU CHIEF KEN CAMBOO says as last Tuesday, our Bluegrass TEA Party Patriots proved they still hadn’t learned the lesson some of our local TEA Partiers in Ohio had already demonstrated. Even with tons of money and all that support, Matt Bevin still lost to Mitch McConnell in the 2014 GOP Senate Primary because of McConnell’s complete control the Republican Party apparatus in Kentucky, especially the Republican state central committee, as well as most of the state’s county central committees.
  • image032LIBERAL LUNACY: In Human Events’ “365 Ways to Drive a Liberal Crazy,” #149 is name the three shortest books in the world:

“How to Win Friends and Influence People” by Rahm Emanuel
“Humility and Its Virtues” by Barack Obama
And “What the Constitution Means to Me” by Nancy Pelosi

  • image033LATE NIGHT TV JOKEWATCHER liked Conan O’Brien’s “The FBI has reversed its policy and will now hire people who have smoked pot in the past three years. When asked why, the FBI said, “Because we couldn’t find anyone who hasn’t smoked pot.”
  • NOW HERE’S THE LATEST FROM BUNKY TADWELL (OUR ODIOUS OCTEGENARIAN), THE BARD OF CLEVES: Just in time for the sweltering spring heat wave, we found this profligate poem by image034our old friend Bunky Tadwell, the Bard of Cleves, from his latest book, “Remembering When,” found in better bookstores everywhere, except in Cleves. 

“Springtime Surprise”
A no-bra blouse
No underpants
A fleeting breeze
Its favor grants.

  • image044THE FREE GRAIN PARTY still stands as the last refuge of anyone willing to help himself from the stores of others.

            This includes all DemocRATS, RINO Republicans, some TEA Partiers, quite a few Independents, disgruntled postal workers, senior citizens demanding free prescriptions, those who believe bigger government is the answer to all their problems, everybody who said “what Bill Clinton did was indefensible, but he shouldn’t be removed from office,” and those who think pork-barrel spending is OK as long as their district gets the money.

  • FINALLY, AT YESTERDAY’S MEETING OF THE CONSERVATIVE AGENDA, Political Insiders were asking Beloved Whistleblower Publisher Charles Foster Kane if he had really been offered an honorary knighthood from Queen Elizabeth II when she and the Royal Family were in Kentucky twenty-three years ago this weekend, like it said in Edition #51 of the Whistleblower. “Of course,” Kane explained. “You know everything you read in The Blower is true.” Award Winning Photo Illustrator Artis Conception shows us Prince Charles dubbing Kane thrice at the ceremony in Lexington.

AND COMING UP IN “THE WEEK THAT WILL BE”:  

  • image045Monday (May 26) we’ll be celebrating Memorial Day, but we’ll still be continuing to count down the 971 Days of Dishonesty for the rest of the nation remaining during the Dark Ages of Obama’s Second Term, unless the First Black President in History is impeached.
  • Tuesday (May 27) will be our “Obama’s VA Scandal” E-dition and our “Real E-Mails from Real Subscribers” will report the latest body count.
  • Wednesday (May 28) we’ll be trying to explain how American culture has devolved to the point that the private statements of an NBA owner draws more outrage than the lies and deceit of the President of the United States.
  • Thursday (May 29) we’ll be checking to see if any of our Republicans have as yet summoned up the courage to use the word “Impeachment.”
  • The first line of Friday’s (May 30) limerick is: “Paying four dollars for a gallon of gas.”
  • And Saturday (May 31), we’ll all be getting ready for Gay Pride Month, which starts on June 1.

image054image047Remember: We never print all the bad stuff we know and certain people in Northern Kentucky politics ought to be damn glad we don’t, especially Trey Grayson, who turned up like a bad penny last week, having just been named President of the Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce.
