I'll be back with a far more wordy, angry and philosophical post on this one but for now I want to make sure that I scoop every news agency in town (once again) . . .
We all know that Ed Wolf, Mayor Funky's alleged Chief of Staff is raking it in with more than 300k a year in compensation from City Hall.
Then, nobody made a big deal when Ed Wolf's Republican son George was appointed to the board of Kansas City's Port Authority.
Now it seems that Mayor Funky has cleaned house at The Arts Commission in order to make room for Gwen Wolf, the crazy ass wife of his Chief of Staff to take a leadership position!!!
THESE CHOICE APPOINTMENTS FOR THE WOLF FAMILY CONSTITUTE NOT ONLY MORE INSTANCES OF NEPOTISM BY MAYOR FUNKY BUT ALSO AN ABANDONMENT OF HIS POLICY OF DISCOURAGING ELITISM WHICH HE PROMISED WHEN HE CAMPAIGNED!!!
Mayor Funky not only rewards his own family (Gloria Squitiro) with an unquestioned and unsanctioned role in the Mayor's office but now Mayor Funkhouser is seemingly creating a Kansas City Republican elite starting with the Wolf clan.
Clearly, this is yet another betrayal of his promises to Kansas City when it comes to promoting regular folks.
Even better . . . A great many people who know Gwen Wolf or have had even a brief interaction with her have TOLD TKC THAT THE THE CHIEF OF STAFF'S WIFE IS ABSOLUTELY BATSHIT CRAZY!!! I've heard she regularly screams at reporters and is full of nasty insults for her perceived opposition. It's no surprise that Wolf and Mayor Funky have found a bit of kinship considering their spouses . . . More importantly, these appointments for one elite Kansas City family are another sign that Mayor Funky's "regular folk" rhetoric was yet another lie.
Developing . . .
Please enlighten me. In what way has Gwen Wolf ever been involved in the arts in Kansas City. More Funkhoosier celebration of ignorance.
ReplyDeleteSo many rumors of Ed Wolf leaving the deck of the Titanic... I guess as long as Funk and the Squid keep appointing him and his extended family to jobs in the government, he'll stay.
ReplyDeleteI suppose we won't have to hear the rumors any more... that's a positive!
Tony, you neglected to mention her fur coat and I can't forgive your oversight.
ReplyDeleteGood coverage Tony. Wolf's compensation and that of his family is often neglected by the media.
ReplyDeleteHer appointment to the arts group is in preparation for the Bi State Arts and Transportation vote. Beware and Be Prepared
ReplyDeleteEeeeaaak! A cockroach in politics...
ReplyDeleteRun away...run away...run away...
Get a fucking life Tony, or maybe a paying job.
Same as the old boss. Funkhouser isn't any less corrupt than Kay.
ReplyDeleteSurprise Kansas City. Sorry fs13 that a blog ruined your illusions.
Which one of you niggers keeps buying up all the Terro ant killer from the Westport Sunfresh?
ReplyDeleteYou don't need to completely line the border of your crapbox house with them, for G-D sakes.
Delete this comment Tony. It's not on topic and racist and crude. That kind of bullshit may be okay for the Mayor's office but you should run a tighter ship.
ReplyDeleteFord has a great job. Gloia is the Real Cheif of Staff and his family profits. It's good work if you can find it.
ReplyDeleteYou forgot to mention that Gwen Wolf is a homophobe.
ReplyDeleteI have met with Ed Wolfe with a serious concern on multiple occasions. His reply "I'll look into it" and never heard from him again. Funky is totally inaccessable and unresponsive, too.
ReplyDeleteOrange revolution my ass.
A homophobe on the Arts Commission? Who does Gwen think produced much of the world's art? Had she been around in Rennaissance Italy, would she have told a straight guy to just put wallpaper on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel rather than let a known homosexual like Michaelangelo paint it?
ReplyDeleteAs a former Funk supporter I am very sorry to hear this. Wolf typifies the non-reponsive nature of the Mayor's office.
ReplyDeleteGet that clown out of there.
Did I miss the point when modern racists combine the N-word and the border? What a bunch of idiots.
ReplyDeleteHow about cutting the grass around your trailer home instead of using the ant spray moron? If you don't have a lawn mower we can give you scissors, just don't run with them.
Have you all met these people? You all are way off base....to the point I am sppechless.....which, quite frankly is a phenomena I wish you would encounter!
