TKC BREAKING AND EXCLUSIVE NEWS!!! CRITICS QUESTION KCK MAYORAL CANDIDATE MARK HOLLAND CONNECTION TO TRINITY METHODIST CHURCH!!!
So, I'm tired of waiting for KCK Mayoral Candidate Mark Holland's people to call me back . . . It feels like they've been ducking my calls for a couple of days now and the runaround I'm getting from the campaign staff is kind of ridiculous.
So . . . I'll just go ahead and spill it . . .
MARK HOLLAND'S CONNECTION TO TRINITY METHODIST CHURCH IS SOON TO BECOME AN ISSUE IN THE KCK CAMPAIGN FOR MAYOR!!!
Here's what we know for a fact . . .
Mark Holland is the pastor @ Trinity Methodist Church . . . And it's kinda funny that The Star doesn't highlight his title as Dr. Rev. Mark Holland since it seems rather prestigious.
Another fact . . .
AN E-MAIL BLAST MAKING REALLY HARD TO UNDERSTAND ALLEGATIONS ABOUT CONFLICTS BETWIXT DR. REV. MARK HOLLAND'S POLITICAL CAREER AND CHURCH LEADERSHIP IS CIRCULATING AMONG NEWSIES!!!
Remember . . . TKC IS NOT supporting the veracity of these claims in this e-mail blast.
But I'm linking it because linking is always legal AND because it's already out there and circulating far and wide among the mainstream newsies . . .
Memo On Dr. Rev. Mark Holland #1
Memo On Dr. Rev. Mark Holland #2
Do I care who wins the Mayoral race in KCK?
Nope, there are a couple of nice Mexican restaurants over there but other than that I couldn't care less if I never saw the place again.
Now . . . It would have been helpful if Dr. Rev. Holland's people would have taken my calls for comment seriously and I could have talked to them about this story . . . But they kept bouncing me to from one line to the next, promising to call me back and then never returning my calls. Finally, the phones at their campaign office sent me straight to voice mail . . . So I left a voice mail and still nothing . . .
And I'm just thinking that if they can't handle this rather minor league media game . . . Then maybe the KC Star's "anointment" to the office of Mayor might be a mistake and out of their league as well.
You d-bags decide . . .

Holland is a nice guy.
If God is on his side, he'll win.
Holland won't respond to questions about his questionable ethics?
Sounds shady to me.
Holland is dangerous. Wish The Kansas City Red Star would do their homework and no just do whatever Sly James tells them.
Sly's political judgement is for poop.
Did you also know that Mark Holland voted to increase property taxes while cutting funding for meals on wheels, mental health programs, drug and alcohol programs, and even assistance for folks with developmental disabilities?!
It's true:

I am shocked. Holland is a huge hypocrite. Preaching one thing, throwing mud at an opponent, and he is rolling in a huge pile of slime himself.
Well thankfully this is the first time ever a religious officials words and actions do not square.
Holland is just there to take orders. He can't get out a sentence in a pinch. He wouldn't even be close to consideration if Reardon wasn't so vindictive.
Shouldn't KCK have their very own mayor-reverend? That worked out so well for KCMO.
We know the way and the troof!
Gimme that old time religion
I remember when the pastors were too busy looking after their flock to play politics.
"Reverend" "Doctor" my fucking ass. Both are honorary titles and meaningless as shit. Just like the holder. I certainly don't revere this asshole and he damned sure ain't no fucking doctor. What a fraud!
does not answer email.
phone calls.
or letters.
People need to know how corrupt mark holland is.
he is unfit for mayor.
I would never buy groceries from Ann Brandau Murguia's new ghetto grocery store that will be built on a toxic waste dump for fear that my children will grow flippers. I would rather shop at the 18th Street grocery, where my only fear is leftover mobile spermatoza from the old Eagle's Inn.
^Hollands camp finally responded.
For. shame. Not the behavior of a good progressive christian by any means. Is that you Mark, we all know you have a temper.
Holland's real character comes out under cover of dark.
I remember when the pastors were too busy looking after their flock to play politics.
U said that already. Forget Holland. He's done.
As a matter of fact, I am not a Holland supporter. I am truly concerned about the toxic nature of Brandau-Murguia's grocery store.
Grocery store? that's all you've got Mark.
As much dirt as you've done and your worried about a grocery store.
Just mail in your concession speech now. It'll be accepted early.
The Most Reverend, Pastor of Preach, Do As I Say Not As I Do, Deacon of Default, Minister of Mismanagement, Congressman Cleaver says:
"there is no conflict when holding positions in the church and government simultaneously."
Looks like Moreno landed Murgia as a client.
Mr.TKC - My guess is Holland's people looked up your blog and got scared off. Not because you aren't a good writer but perhaps because of the sexy images and some of the comments. I'm guessing you've been in contact with Murguia about her and her extended family's campaign contributions to Brownback/GOP? What's that about?
Why should they talk to you? You do not follow standard journalistic practices, you post rumors, don't check facts, etc. You make braod assumptions and assign motives. You allow people to anonymously post hate speech. (BTW posting the n-word anonymously is not free speech. If you want to say it in public where people can know who you are, that is free speech.)
If you want people to treat you as a legitimate media outlet, then you need to behave like a journalist with some ethics.
I dont know why anyone would give you the time of day.
they didn't and they go screwed.
If holland loses the election. This is how it starts.
They should have been smarter.
The internet has changed things. bloggers can bring down a campaign.
