TKC EXCLUSIVE!!! MAYOR FUNKHOUSER E-MAIL BLAST PROVES HE'S TOTALLY DISCONNECTED WITH KANSAS CITY DELEGATION IN JEFF CITY!!!



When it comes to creating a good relationship with other elected officials, Kansas City's Mayor Mark Funkhouser remains completely clueless.

Check out this quick e-mail from the Mayor:

From: Mark Siettmann
Date: March 15, 2010 1:52:47 PM CDT
Subject: Special Invitation from Mayor Mark Funkhouser

Kansas City Mayor Mark Funkhouser

Invites All Members of the
Missouri General Assembly
Kansas City Delegation


To a Spring Break Meet and Greet

Friday, March 19, 2 - 3 p.m.
Mayor’s Office, 29th Floor of City Hall

Seems nice right? A bit of outreach to other politicos working for this town's best interests? Until . . .

MAYOR FUNKHOUSER'S ADMINISTRATION FAILED TO REALIZE THAT SPRING BREAK FOR THE MISSOURI GENERAL ASSEMBLY WAS LAST WEEK!!!

Thanks to the AWESOME FOLKS who sent this my way. To wit, I'm not joking when I say that a great many elected officials at the state level are LITERALLY laughing at Mayor Funkhouser's incompetence.

"The 5 grand going to (former Jeff Roe associate) Mark Siettmann is highway robbery." Said one TKC reader who got a glimpse of this e-mail. "They have no idea what the Kansas City Delegation is doing and they don't seem to want to learn."

Mayor Funky keeps promising he's going to get better at communicating and cooperating with other local politicos both Republican and Democrat . . . But it never happens.

Even worse . . .

MAYOR FUNKY'S SPRING BREAK MEET & GREET TAKES PLACE WHEN MORE THAN A FEW MEMBERS OF THE KANSAS CITY DELEGATION WILL BE STAYING IN JEFFERSON CITY DURING BUDGET COMMITTEE MEETINGS!!!

Rep. Jason Kander
Rep. Kiki Curls
Rep. Mike Talboy
Rep. Martin Rucker
Rep. Jonas Hughes
Rep. Ryan Silvey

These are all elected officials who will be working during their busiest time of year during Mayor Funky's party planned with almost NO RESEARCH!!!

And yet again, this sad and lonely soiree is just the latest passage in the story of Mayor Funkhouser's failed administration that has been little more than a series of empty gestures and gross incompetence.

  1. This would be the fault of Jeff Roe. The Mayor was going to meet with mostly Democrats, they really don't count in Jeff City. It is Republican controlled. So he is talking to the wrong people. Do you think anyone is going to get more money from Jeff City? They are just as broke as KC.

  2. Silvey is a Republican.

    And if it's not important, then why have Spring Break party one week after Spring Break is over?

    And the Feckless Baboon's term is over .... when?

  4. Maybe Jeff Roe and the Funk thought that the State Reps would leave Jeff City for a chance to see Gloria Squitiro in her office at City Hall now that she has triumphantly returned? All hail the powerful Co-Mayor!

  5. Kander was visiting family last week. He said so in his OH SO CUTE Ethics Quiz.

    Instead of Jeff Roe spawn, Funk should hire Chris Moreno if he wants to get things done.

    I think that the Gruesome Twosome should run their own re-election campaign. Let's face it, they ARE the two smartest people in the room*.

    *only when they are alone!

  7. Chris Moreno was by all accounts fired for cause by the House Democrat campaign committee, so he would probably fit in well in Gloria's City Hall.

  10. On the way to work I saw a cab that had "444-4444" on it. But isn't that the same number at mcgregor4kc.com?

    It's really sad to see the Funk back down on the issue of muzzling the Squid. He can't possibly be thinking that this will actually improve his almost non-existant chance to re-elected Mayor and yet he's allowed her to come back.

    As to Big Jeff Roe... too bad for you that the muzzle is off the Squid. It makes you look ineffectual and powerless. And for sure, they are doing this over your objection so how should we view this as it relates to your ability to represent and counsel the gruesome Twosome?

    My suggestion to BJR... MUZZLE her again!!! And this time, keep her MUZZLED!!!

  12. Anon 8:48. I work for the HDCC. Worked with Chris Moreno on a daily basis. What you are saying is 100% false. Thanks for posting.

  13. Leave it to Mayor Funkhouser to hire Mark Seittman. Couldn't fit the guy more. Douchebag "consultant" working for a douchebag boss.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Ok so the mayor hires both Jeff Roe and his part-time lover Mark Seittman. Nobody can now question whether or not he is Republican.

  15. Why is Beth Low not on the list?

  16. I thought Beth went by her first name only?

    I don't think that the Funk or the Funkhouser campaign is directly compensating Big Jeff Roe for his time. That seems to be why the Funk hired Seittman and is covering the bill with public funds. Far be it that we should think that a man such as the Funk used to be would steal from the public to pay a campaign obligation.

    What say ye about this Flunk? A response from any of the Pro-Funk blogger crew would be okay too!

  18. Funk won't muzzle his wife. She'll beat the crap out of him like she admitted to doing in her diary!

    Jeff City is not in session on Fridays, BUT there are a multitude of conferences, in-state meetings, budget related business meetings, constituent meetings set WAY in advance. A 4 (FOUR) day notice is rude and petulant.

    Besides there are Jay-Z March 19 tickets cheap at Scottrade Center in Saint Louis, MO.

    SORRY FUNK'D ROAD TRIP!!!!!

  20. Funk and staff --- can you all do anything right?

  21. Way to go about schmoozing Jeff City, mayor fuck up. You invited them to your office with your troll wife. Not a pretty sight. Of course your troll does not understand basic courtesy as she is a bitch. 4 days notice? Could you be more insufferable? Could you be more stupid? Just how bad is your Asperger syndrome?

    "YouTube - Mark Funkhouser Speaks @ The Graduate School"

    don't bother looking. Just wanted to point out that our crummy mayor is speaking for pay...
    In this particular spiel he talks about "Enemies". Well, he has created a lot of material on that subject. He always speaks about his enemies, never about moving this city forward. Never about building up our city. Never about being of use except when it fills a political need.
    Thankfully his Schools First bill is dead in Jeff City. He can only do harm.
    He is a jerk, bless his heart.

    Bring video cameras on Friday to City Hall. Post pics of the local politicians who bother to respond to the rude summons. Shouldn't take long as no one will show up, just the Jeff Roe stable.

  26. Was he home schooled by a mentally handicapped mother? Did he ride the short bus? I apologize to those I just offended but I believe your children and others with mental health issues could do a better job!
