C.W. Gusewelle Against Clay Chastain!!!

Today, C.W. Gusewelle partakes in a bit of Kansas City transit criticism rather than writing about cats . . .
Clay Chastain: a gadfly with feet of clay
There's no grand conclusion except for typical Clay Chastain hateration. As the headline suggests, this is really just a hit piece from Dead Tree Media.
Nevertheless . . .
WHAT'S IMPORTANT HERE IS ONCE AGAIN DEAD TREE MEDIA IS MORE CONCERNED ABOUT SILENCING VOICES THEY FIND DISAGREEABLE THAN CREATING AN INCLUSIVE CONVERSATION!!!
In my experience this is a dangerous trend among a few Kansas City Dead Tree Media writers . . . Some of them seem to think that it's their job to control the local discourse and exclude anyone who disagrees.
For the record, it's worth remembering that Clay Chastain is the only person connected to local transit issues who has won a citywide election. Furthermore, Mr. Chastain has earned signatures from thousands upon thousands of residents in his transit crusade. So, disagree with him all you'd like . . . When it comes to making contact with voters Mr. Chastain's work still outpaces any other group of transit activists in town by far.

I don't care what he has won. He doesn't even live here and the man is fuckin creeepy.
Jesus what a fuckin wierdo.
Tony you only love Clay because he fucks up every rail-based transit plan put before this city. The only person who has done more than Clay to stop mass transit in this City is Jim Nutter Sr.
I have to rethink my position on this matter because I just agreed with Chuck.
Clay Chastain lives if Bedford fuckin Virginia and is a Scientologist.
Scientology's most basic tenet is "Auditing."
"Auditing" is sometimes seen as controversial, because auditing sessions are permanently recorded and stored within what are called Preclear Folders. Scientologists believe that the practice of auditing helps them overcome the debilitating effects of traumatic experiences, most of which have accumulated over a multitude of lifetimes."
AUDITOR: "Clay, what do you see yourself doing in future lifetimes?"
CLAY: "Driving people in Kansas City completly fuckin nuts."
AUDITOR: "Do you see yourself living in Kansas City in your future lives."
CLAY: "Fuck no, have you been there?"
AUDITOR: "If you don't live there why would you keep going there?"
CLAY: "Well, I can't imagine a time in any of my future lives where I will be worth anything more than piss in a boot, so I will have to find validation for my metphysically meaningless existance by fuckin with people in Kansas City."
AUDITOR: "That actually makes sense. The people in Bedford probably hate you too, but only in passing. If you pulled this shit in Virginia, your fuckin neighbors would probably string your dumb ass up to a tree."
CLAY: "This Scientology shit really works!"
AUDITOR: "Go in peace my son."
Lmao!
Best one you ever posted Chuck.
Agree with Chuck. Clay Shitstain isn't a transit advocate, he's a megalomaniac with a bad temper, no logical thinking skills and B. O. Why doesn't he worry about transit in his own town or state?
Sorry once again the kansas star slander a good man all in the name of the special interested in this town. Which the star is ready in bed with. That why know one ready reades the star or take seriously and consider a rag. the story not about clay but your right to vote and not let someone make that decsion for you it you right reminder that.
Clay suffers from the same disease as Byron does.
Neither one can go away and stay the fuck out of our business.
I will give Clay a semi high five but only because he hates the toy train other than that fuck him.
11:16: Don't disagree that Clay is Clay is "a megalomaniac with a bad temper," but then so is Gusewelle.
Let talk about the real issue is your right to vote. They taken you right to the vote away that the real issue fuck clay it not about him but you god give right to make the choice that what it about
The thing I take from this story is that GW Gusewelle, despite having little to say in his columns, appears to have been cranking them out since before the Star-Times merger.
Wow.
KC Star is located on main street, ground zero for any transit plan. The bottom line is that they expect to be included in any graft. If they are not they will not support the project.
Why do you think they love P&L so much?
i may be clay's only supporter -- but he's been tryin' to push-move shove this sad,slow town forward. he got the signatures - he got the vote and he got the shaft.
i'm just sayin'
Yes it about the dam vote the city council and mayor all sucking up to the graft in this town just lining pockets with taxpayer money.Clay has ball to stand up to the mayor and and want change. That more than i say most people in this room hid and bash people who they are knowbodys
11:29, that would be libel. You slander people with spoken words. You libel them in print. But truth is always an absolute defense in either case. So calling Clay Chastain a megalomaniac asshole would not be libel because it is the truth.
If chastain is a scientologist, his nutty behavior is now readily apparent. Thanks, chuck, for the head's up. Fuck him.
So, you people prefer rule by mob, rather than democracy? Discourse regarding personalities instead of ideas?
BTW, I almost forgot, fuck you, SuperAsshole.
Your business? You all are doing such a good job of self-governance that I wouldn't presume to interfere.
But, I don't need your arrogant permission to comment on my friend's blog.
BTW FUCK YOU 2 BUTTRON
Wasn't Byrons brother an auditor ?
What do you mean, "..SILENCING VOICES THEY FIND DISAGREEABLE..."? The Star created Chastain; for years they gave him a podium to spout his crap. He's their boy; the small guy who fought those bastards at city hall. They love shit like that.
11:29, 12:26, etc. Oh my fucking god. There are some incredibly stupid people commenting on this blog, but you have the worst grammar I have ever seen. Seriously, did you drop out at the preschool level?

Yes, he was an auditor. A friend of his gave him this career. He has no background in math, accounting or economics.
