I think we need to be reminded this morning that Mayor Funky doesn't run ANYTHING in Kansas City.
Seriously, my homegirl Beth Gottstein beat him. Soundly.
Review:
Because he has proven himself to be incompetent and lazy regarding appointments, yesterday The City Council beat up The Mayor on the subject of appointments and basically worked without him.
Mayor Funky's plan to use a Sales Tax for more police, THAT NOT EVEN THE KCPD ENDORSED failed as well.
Let's face it:
LAME DUCK MAYOR FUNKY REMAINS WITHOUT ANY POLITICAL CAPITAL AN HE'S A NON-FACTOR IN DISCUSSIONS OF THIS TOWN'S FUTURE!!!
Of course, it's his own fault and never has it been so obvious that political wives like Gloria Squitiro can certainly destroy otherwise promising political careers. But in the end, a pathological stubbornness and a bit of false advertising (some of it created by TKC for free) thwarted Funkhouser and Kansas City alike.
I like him.
ReplyDeleteHave you seen Gloria Tony?
ReplyDeleteI also "like" him. His story line is very funny. I will miss his crazy antics and his lies. They are amusing now because they no longer impact the governance of this city. He has a BBC comedy skit air about him that just cracks me up!
ReplyDeleteDo you support Councilwoman Gottstein in her reelection bid?
ReplyDeleteThat picture and caption---very fuckin funny.
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of a mayor talked about in distain when his or her name is mentioned in public like the Co-mayors. They are an embarrassment. They need te concede and go away.
ReplyDeleteThe hole that the co-mayors have dug for KCMO will take years to climb out of, if it's even possible.
ReplyDeleteI pity the incoming mayor and new councilmembers who will have to try to clean up the mess and do with much less as the public safety sales tax fails and the etax goes away.
Women and children first!
Actually the ship's already being abandoned every day.
