They voted for Obama the first time around.Now that they know hope and change means Marxism they want nothing to do with him.Which does not keep the National press from charging the voters with racism.Our version of Pravda.At lest it seems people are getting it.

Comment on Promises, Promises, Promises, Promises… by Mike Harvey

To me it's implied that when one says "why them, not me" one should be able to put two and two together and get the question… When I got home last night and checked my facebook someone on my facebook literally said the same thing about his business. "Where's my abatement?" he said. I totally understood he was not asking for an abatement but was just asking for a level playing field.

Gosh – Tax breaks for businesses! How unfair to us individual taxpayers on fixed income! When income taxes are not collected from business properties, then the tax appraisals to homeowners has to rise in order that tax collections can finance current government spending which includes . . . you guessed it. I would bet that the" transfer of tax liability to homeowners" meme was not discussed with Dr. Smiling Teeth.

There is no dress code, Mike, but dress for success. I did not hear that in your comments, more why them, not me?

So is there a dress code at council? I only heard about it at the last minute and just had time to stop it at the last minute. I actually just got done fixing a toilet but I did wash my hands thoroughly.

And my point is not in asking for an abatement. Just agreeing with idea that too many are given out. Sorry for existing…

Thank you, I think. Here is a comment: if you are not at the table you are on it. Participation is key to protecting one's interests.

Mr. Sack, I have been run over by Soros democrats. I have been served as road kill by Soros democrats. I know a few Soros democrats. Soros democrats are not friends of mine. Jim Sack, you are no Soros democrat.

Ransom, thanks for the kind words. I am getting old, tired and want to make some progress in Fort Wayne before I die. My focus is on local politics, on helping my elected officials serve us better. I think of how to better use technology. McGauley is wonderful in that regard. We should all question policy by asking fundamental questions – why are we doing this, is the methodology going to create the stated results and is there a public process to review goals and results. I think Jehl is asking good questions. I also hope we can find common understand and help each other. Lewandowski speaks for taxpayers like you and me, as well a union workers, who are also taxpayers. I appreciate that Shoaff and Smith, not to forget Mitch, keep a eye on spending and creative accounting. I understand that the mayor has goals and expects Pat Roller to find ways of paying for those programs. For me, it is about making sure the process is fair and open. I will try to work with my friends of all political parties to focus on a discussion of costs and benefits. I love you and the others on the cantankerous page who ask hard questions and demand (over and over again) forthright answers.

Over the years I have picked up a few language skills. Sometimes it appears to me that politicians are trying to express the same ideas to one another, but goals are lost in the rhetoric of ideology and labels. I try to interpret from one dialect to another. Mom, the Goldwater Republican, and dad, the Truman Democrat, often discussed politics from their two perspectives and I listened. The same was true with Buckley and Lowenstein. I could here the same things being said in two dialects. We will do better as a community and a nation if we listen more carefully for the fundamental though that we can share and build upon. Thank you again for the kind words. I am honored.

Comment on Let it be resolved: The Democrat Party should be disbanded for this by RipVanBullwinkl

I really don't think there's anything to it other than posturing for a job back then, if it were true team Hillary would have been all over it like stink on glue. It does, however, demonstrate how our MSM was in the tank for him them and still are.

The old saying goes: don't believe anything you hear and only half of what you read, these days you can't believe anything the MSM reports, these days going all the way back to Dan "what's the frequency Kenneth?" Rather's TANG memos.

Given ObamA++'s record and the big wet smooch Nancy Pelosi gave the occutards when she said she admires their spontaneity, I think it's safe to say Democratic is the party for under achievers.

So we are not talking about Crosby, Stills and Nash or the Insane Clown Posse here. Maybe it's this other clown . . .
