Erin Stern is our model of strength for Kansas City tonight as we acknowledge local power players.
Check it:
POLITICOS
1. Kansas City Mayor Sly James - Our town's top elected official can move the crowd with his smile on the subject of gun control or toy trains. The consensus is that he won't have a challenger given that he's the most charismatic leader Kansas City has seen in a generation.
2. MO House Rep. John Rizzo - Leading the Missouri House Democrats during a tense session. We'll have more on his work in just a few moments but this is a bit of real recognition for one of Kansas City's best and brightest representatives.
3. Mayor Pro Tem Cindy Circo - Like it or not, this lady has some of Kansas City's most influential people concerned about her next move.
4. MO State Senator Jason Holsman - "Big Red" is certainly South Kansas City's best and brightest as he begins a promising political career advocating for an often neglected part of town.
5. Jackson County Legislator Theresa Garza Ruiz - Maybe a future Kansas City Council Lady, queen of the corridor and certainly a power player in local politics.

Chaka Kahn!
ReplyDeleteTony Bones, Toni Bones, guess Jolly no longer licks his lolly so she didn't make the list this week.
ReplyDeleteExcept for a couple the mediocrity is overwhelming.
ReplyDeleteWhy do slam the mayor then turn around and suck his dick T. You bi polar or something?
ReplyDeleteHey be nice there 8:12 and watch the language. This blog is for decent and respectable people.
ReplyDeleteI don't think Tony goes that far probably just sniffs his farts or something when in the vicinity.
ReplyDeleteKansas City is lonesome tonight
ReplyDeleteBoth you dirt bags should be 86'd for abusing your right to free speech around here.
ReplyDeleteTwitter Hacked: Data for 250,000 Users May Be Stolen
ReplyDeletePractice good password hygiene!
You mean someone's tapped into the worthless drivel on Twitter???? Oh Lord.
ReplyDeleteWTF you mean by hygiene you freaking geek. Please already computers are machines dimwit.
ReplyDeleteDid anyone know that Stadiums are basically giant bars?
ReplyDeleteAmazing
KC also a Top 10 city for frozen pants
ReplyDeleteIn other news the new flame has cost the memorial about $100,000 a year but high technology could reduce that cost to about $70,000 a year.
ReplyDeleteYeah until KCPL and MGE get their next rate increase to offset any damage to their profits caused by us pesky customers making efforts to conserve.
ReplyDelete*eyeroll*
ReplyDeleteI'd fuck Tess K in her ass. Then cum all over her face. I'd even get some in her hair. Maybe even in her eyes just to see how she would react.
ReplyDeleteRizzo our best and brightest? Lord help us
ReplyDeleteI'd buy that for a dollar!
ReplyDeleteSly use to be an ok guy years ago but he got to eating too many of the big white mints in mens restrooms over the years and it messed his mind up.
ReplyDeleteThat's dumb.
ReplyDeleteI think this list should be formally entitled The Moreno List.
ReplyDeleteAfter all, next to Chris Moreno, all of these people in all of these categories can only be compared to his power.
I bet Chris Moreno has a big dick.
ReplyDeleteAsk Byron.
DeleteI really doubt whether Chris could tell you because there is no way that he has been able to see it in 20 years.
ReplyDeleteAs Lou said ask Byron he will know for sure.
ReplyDeleteGive me a fucking break you ass-hats are debating the size of Chris Moreno's man-sausage(ette) when one post up we are speculatin on DeAnn Smith's lady parts! What the fuck is wrong with you people! No right to vote for you!
ReplyDeleteEric Wesson? Lawd have mercy! He is a poor excuse for a journalist or an advocate. Any body who thinks "irregardless" is a word and uses it in print and on the air should be silenced.
ReplyDeleteSue Burke seems a bit cray cray and she lives in Johnson County. Of course she doesn't get to vote on a KCMO TID, any more than she gets to vote on the earnings tax or sales tax or other property taxes. Get a life, Sue.
Sue does not live in Johnson County. She lives in KCMO. Do your homework before you embarras yourself and expose your ignorance when making comments.
ReplyDeleteErin Stern is a buff workout babe, without getting scary big!
ReplyDelete@12:21 WRONG AGAIN! "irregardless" (adverb) showing lack of regard;without concern lack of respective Origin 1910-1915 non traditional
ReplyDeleteActually had that debate on a term paper at Kansas University
8:06, the fact that your term paper was at KU negates your argument. It's "regardless" not "irregardless".
ReplyDelete12:21 is half right about Burke. She does seem a bit cray cray.
ReplyDeleteShe and Stretch are both nuts if they think their lawsuit has a snowball's chance in Hell.
To 8:06:
ReplyDeleteAlthough it's true that the American Heritage Dictionary, the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary, and the Oxford English Dictionary all list the word irregardless, they also note that it's considered nonstandard. Listing a word as nonstandard is a way that dictionaries concede that a word is in common use, but isn't really a proper word. Standard language is defined as the language spoken by educated native speakers (1), but comprehensive dictionaries also include nonstandard words, dialect, colloquialisms, and jargon--words like ain't, conversate, and irregardless. It seems pretty common for people to look up a word in a dictionary, and if it's there, they think it's fine to use that word every circumstance. It's the "Look, it's a word!" phenomenon.
The prefix ir- (i-r) is a negative prefix, so if you add the prefix ir to a word that's already negative like regardless, you're making a double-negative word that literally means “without without regard.”
Bet 15K Cathy Jolly is on the list next week....ha ha
