KC Tribune confirms a fact floating around all of Kansas City political circles . . . Sly James is raising money hand over fist:

Sly James Campaign Ahead Of Funkhouser in Funding

Make no mistake . . . Elections are decided with cash in Kansas City, and everywhere else, and at this point Sly stays winning with better parties and more supporters than any other Mayoral candidate in the metro.

  1. If he promises to get the TIFs rolling again his lawyer buddies will chip in big time.

  2. Sly is "slyme." I hope he doesn't run on a law and order platform since he put in an appearance as a character witness for the little thug Jawanza Brown who got away with murder a couple of years ago and within weeks of getting out had gunned down two more people.

    Yeah, Sly, we see where your priorities lie.

  5. Big KC money won't screw this one up again. We will have a pro-development mayor this time around.

    Name not important.

  6. It doesn't matter how stupid they are as long as they do as told, ala Kay Waldo Cronkite Barnes.

    Can you tell me exactly what Sly said about Jawanza Brown? From your post you seem to imply that there are some very specific comments he made in support of Jawanza. What are those comments exactly? Please be specific, because I know Sly and this does not sound accurate. You should produce an exact quote from Sly about Jawanza or I’m going to assume you’re making this stuff up. And everyone else will know you are, too.

  8. JR,

    Frankly I could give a rat's ass whether you believe me or not ... and if I did post proof, you'd find a way to not believe it.

    Why don't you do your own research and check the court record, ask for a witness list and/or a transcript or contact the prosecutor's office. Sly and Ron Hunt both spoke on behalf of the thug Jawanza.

  9. I was at the trial and sentencing every day and I did not see or her Sly James say anything. And if he did he would not be any more of slime than anyone else that is elected. By the way he was convicted of drug sales not killing anyone.

  10. Are you talking about the same trial? This was not the drug charges but the assault charges for the two people he shot. They were only wounded.

    The drug charges are in Castnet under 0716-CR03189-01, but the assault charges are a separate case, 0716-CR06892-01, in which the jury found him guilty in May of two 1st degree assaults and two armed criminal actions.

  13. Anonymous 2,

    You made a direct accusation that was pretty aggressive. JR asked what proof you have and you told HIM to go look it up? If you made the charge, why don't YOU have the proof? Why are you making him do YOUR research. If you have a quote where Sly says what you say he says, post it.
