Continuing our graduation theme for the week . . . Let's make this quick and dirty once again because I've learned that keeping it short is important.
And so . . . As we celebrate graduation day for the Kansas City Class of 2014 I can only ask . . .
What have we learned so far???
Here are the Kansas City teaching moments coming to mind over the past year . . .
- Kansas City Democracy isn't so important for politicos to be considered "popular" by their supporters. Seriously, last election had less than 8% voter turnout. Our political elite started a toy train that's eating up close to a BILLION DOLLARS over the long run with less than 500 votes. If the Administration of Mayor Sly James has learned one thing . . . It's that they're too smart for voters and the electorate must be pushed out of the process in order to make "progress" for this cowtown.
- Ethics aren't important in Kansas City. In the last year we've seen a Council dude show his wang in a horrific selfie and a Council Lady pretty much celebrates her patronage deals in public. Also . . . Let's not forget the upcoming race for City Council has politicos shacking up under shady circumstances in order to beat residency requirements.
- Corporations rule Kansas City . . . Most of our elected leaders now have open disdain for the public and they seem more interested in giving away MILLIONS in tax breaks to local corporations than having any kind of meaningful interaction with the voting public.
- Because these life lessons are kind of a bummer . . . We also want to remind Kansas City graduates of the classic and immortal words of Rodney Dangerfield: "Always look out for #1 and be careful not to step in #2." Not a bad life philosophy really.
FOR TONIGHT . . . WE HOPE OUR BLOG COMMUNITY WILL OFFER MORE WORDS OF WISDOM TO THE GRADUATING CLASS OF 2014!!!
More than anything, the graduates in Kansas City's Class of 2014 can rest assured that political connections are far more important than any academic work they have accomplished.
And all this has inspired tonight's playlist.
As always, thanks for reading this week and have a safe and fun Saturday Night . . .
What about all the jobs leaving Downtown? What have we learned from that?

ReplyDeletethanks there do good douche bagger
ReplyDelete9:01 sounds like one of those politically correct cocksuckers that loves black cock. Is that you Vito Camissaino ? Is Michael Sam with you ?
ReplyDeleteTony, you are a KC treasure.
ReplyDeleteThe unrestricted discourse in the comments section, in conjunction with the topics generated by politics that really matter to lunch pail, blue collar folks who pay taxes in this city, can not be underestimated.
You are indeed, the epitome of a self made American, who provides an important product to your customers. That product, is, in this regressive, facist liberal American zeitgeist, a clarion call for any Kansas City Citizens who really want to hear the unfettered truth.
You work your fuckin ass off every fuckin day. You post night and day at all hours and you never lose sight of your personal guidon and truth as you see it. What you do, in my opinion, is important and means something to folks who have quit believing in traditional news sources.
God Bless You.
God Bless Your Family.
God Bless America.
His stories are not only thing short
ReplyDeleteFuck it join the military. When you get out you can use your GI Bill to get a degree that will only take you 30 tears instead of 40 to pay off. Off course like our fines institutions your degree will be fucking worthless but all those old tools who have been pitching college need to work.
ReplyDeleteKC is screwed. Shame on Sly for selling out KC.
ReplyDeleteChuck, you are too kind. Thank you for participating in this forum. For a lot of people, you are the main attraction and I always appreciate your perspective.
ReplyDeleteHope everybody stays safe tonight!!!

ReplyDeleteChuck is trolling for some male cum again tonight just the other night he was slobbering all over Glazers gibberish tomorrow he will be over at KCC stroking Hearnies cock about something.
ReplyDeletePlease, nobody gives a shit about super douche.

ReplyDeletePlease Beecher , nobody gives a shit about you either ya fucking asshole who acts like Byron.
ReplyDelete9:01pm...... looks like you are the "BITCH" huh
ReplyDeleteWe aint got any fooking zeitgeists cuz this is America, dude.
ReplyDeleteWhats with the pic of the weird old white guy dressed up like Henry VIII? Or is he some local drag queen? Reminds me of Dame Edna, Queen of Australia.
9:19 your comments tell everyone that you are both young and stupid.
ReplyDeleteRemember graduates there's only one thing worse than misinformed people, it's misinformed people who won't source things when called out on their bullshit. "I know I'm making half of this up, but you have to prove it!"
ReplyDeleteAnd that's TKC.
