I've met Jacob Turk and he's an exceptionally nice guy.
Nevertheless . . .
JACOB TURK WILL NEVER BEAT CONGRESSMAN CLEAVER IN AN ELECTION THAT IS HELD ANYWHERE NEAR KANSAS CITY PROPER!!!
He's had a more than a couple of chances and even came close . . . But c'mon, the Tea Party wave couldn't carry him and most of the local GOP is growing frustrated with Mr. Turk taking away their momentum to put a challenge for the office.
There are a few silly reactionaries who cite reverse racism (whatever that is) and pout. More educated GOP elite know that name recognition and the privileges of incumbency have more to do with Congressman Cleaver's advantage.
Anyhoo . . .
Mr. Turk is complaining about Missouri District lines for the last remaining people who vote in this town . . . And, like it or not, these complaints would hit harder from a more viable candidate.

Because we still have a form of democracy he can run all he wants to. Of course, given time, the Democrats will kill democracy in KC altogether and it will be Detroit again,,,here. I think it's pretty well on the way to Detroit now.
ReplyDeleteTired of cleaver, voting for a republican this year.
ReplyDeleteHe needs to open up a car wash.
ReplyDeleteI only want politicians in office with experience in biddness.
Cleaver is a useless Congressman.
ReplyDeleteLets put him in some other useless position.
I know, make him a Kansas City Municipal Court Collection agen...uh, I mean Kansas City Municipal Court Judge!
Ya might wanna follow this story Tony.

It's time for black KC to prove they vote for the best candidate and not simply because he is black. Cleaver is the epitome of what is broken in Washington. He is only lining his pockets half a country away while his district at home turns even shittier. He and all the other Congressmen have got to go.
ReplyDeleteVoting for a Republican to Congress is a terrible idea, and you'll regret how they'll transfer your wealth to the wealthy...kill off your retirement and reasonable health care.
ReplyDeleteCleaver's first name is "The Beaver" compared to what Republicans do when it comes to pocket-lining. He's an acceptable rep, IMHO, because he doesn't side with corporate America that wants to take over the country.
THey should all be imprisoned for bribery, the big money donors and the congressmen, but we'll not get that done.
Despite the millions in pro GOP campaign ads this fall, maybe if we vote em out, then the corporations will see political bribery as not all that effective an investment.
Moreover, a weak democrat's a better investment than a good republican, because the republicans are whipped into voting the way they're told on every issue.
And the US has a lot of work to do but the Republicans have no intention of doing any of it.
A million dollar carwash in every pot......thanks for siding with the taxpayer. And I didn't even get my car washed....
ReplyDeleteI'm amazed that some people can't tell they're looking at two sides of the same coin.
ReplyDeleteCleaver is no diffedrent than the GOP (or any other politico for that matter). He's just not in a position to take a bigger bite for himself. But you can be damn sure wealth transfer is a prominent part of his game.
yea 7:16 thats the dumbest thing ever and im a union memeber. i see the real problems but you are blinded by the bullshit. if you think the country or even the city can continue this way you are either blind or just really dumb.
ReplyDeletecleaver has had his chance and its time for a change.
there needs to be term limits set.
Time for Cleaver to go to Burns and Mac. I'm sure his business background will come in handy.
ReplyDeleteCleaver is just a blood sucker working for his primary beneficiaries in the racism industry.
ReplyDeletePersonally, I've never been all that enthralled by Cleaver's speechifying. He's a boring plodder of a speaker with poor rhythm and metre. And his analogies and metaphors leave much to be desired. Not impressed.
ReplyDeleteFuck cleaver. I'm voting for his opponent, I don't care if it's a goat. Out with that grifter loser.
ReplyDeleteLet's see, black president fighting for his political life, black congressman with a large black voting block as his anchor, and his primary opponent the last 8 years now lives in the 6th district.
ReplyDeleteSo a large turnout in the black neighborhoods in support of a black president and a black congressman...I'd say Cleaver carries the 5th by 10 points. Remember that Raytown and Grandview will cancel out the rest of Lee's Summit that's left in the 5th.
Has someone asked Turk why he's not running against Graves? Sams new eye candy in DC is a barbie doll 15 yrs younger then him. Those family value voters are going to just love her!
Sams divorce isn't final untill the end of June. How could he have a new sex partner already?
ReplyDeleteGraves will walk away with his district.
ReplyDeleteCleaver will need a big turnout in the black wards to win....if they don't all kill each other first.
Cleaver's self-serving double dealing has even gotten notice in the black neighborhoods. He has refused to step in to help mediate the destruction of Wendall Phillips by the KCPD, preferring instead to side wide his old friends and fellow grifters in the racism industry.
ReplyDeleteAnd except for the GIZ $$$ used to buy the vote of his base, what positive things has Cleaver done to improve the lot of ALL of his constituents in the 5th?
Jacob Turk will make a great Congressman in the Fifth District and Bob Gough will make a great Congressman in the Sixth district.
ReplyDeleteBoth are running in the August primary election against establishmnet Republicans.
NIGGERS like Cleaver are now further organizing with the Attorney General of the United States (also black), to teach black preachers, pastors, thieves, whatever you call them, on how to circumvent the tax laws as they pertain to political speech from the pulpit. In other words, the tax code clearly doesn't allow political directing from preachers OR they risk losing that coveted 501(c)3 status (TAX EXEMPTION!!). Why on earth is this being allowed?? Have we already become a dictatorship? If not, it's coming.
ReplyDeleteSam Graves is getting a divorce??? Lies! You evil dems spreading more vile lies is just disgusting.
ReplyDeleteI'm sort of caught off gaurd on the Graves divorce here also. Anybody got a link to this? Did the Star cover this? The St Joe paper? TV?
ReplyDeleteReally, is this true?

ReplyDeleteMust be a Missouri thing. Bond did it, Blunt did it, now Graves. All leave their wives for younger DC bimbos that can suck a golf ball thru a garden hose. Can't believe Gingrich couldn't carry the state this spring
ReplyDeleteDoes anybody know what Turk does for a living? How does he support his family when he's been a full time candidate for 8 years running.
ReplyDeleteDoes Turk already have his DC bimbo picked out?
ReplyDeleteThis Missouri problem is very common. When your wife of many years tells you no more sex, what do you do? Everywhere you turn in DC you are around young, agressive beautiful women who wre raised in the Lewinski era, where oral sex has no taboo's, unlike back home where the old wifey says no no no...Sam is just being a man!
ReplyDeleteJacob Turk will be a fine representative for the 5th. Cleaver is much too liberal for our district. Strange how they gerrymandered Turk's house right out of the district. We need a fiscal conservative!
ReplyDeleteThe "they" you are refering to are the Republicans in Jeff City. Funny that. Where does Matt Bartle live? Bet this map was drawn with 2014 in mind...
ReplyDeleteCleaver will represent KC in DC for as long as he wants to.
ReplyDeleteReally Bob Gough a good Congressman? Really? Turk good for Kansas City proper? Really? Just stop people please. This is ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteI seldom make such broad accusations but if you vote for Cleaver you are a bigger idiot than he is. He is not an effective congressman and does nothing to domonstrate he gives a crap about anyone in his district. My opinion has very little to do with my politics.
ReplyDeleteI would say that 90 percent of the people who posted a comment don't even live in the State of Missouri the other 10 percent dont even know what you are talking about.
ReplyDeleteThat's why we need voter id cards
ReplyDelete"Leave It To Cleaver" said, "why that's a lovely dress you're wearing Mrs. 5th District....now, you're voting for me aren't you?"
ReplyDeleteMrs. 5th District: "My situation's no better since you been in office!"
Leave It To Cleaver: "Gee whiz, lady, remember I'm a preacher."
Mrs. 5th District: No, you remember this, Psalm 37:21 ..the wicked borrow and do not repay.
Beware of GINGER POLITICIANS! They're trying to take over the country.
ReplyDeleteWow, Eddie Haskell.
ReplyDeleteHope your series gets picked up by the network for a full election season.
AS long as blacks vote race, Cleaver is pretty much unbeatable. Too many whites don't vote.
ReplyDeleteYea, blacks have all sorts of reasons to vote for Turk.
ReplyDeleteMr Turk when asked about Todd Akin's comments , his comments ... "We are a Constitutional Republic" UH , again should Akin Withdraw from the 2012 Senate Race ... "We are a constitutional Republic" .. Ok so Turk approves of Akin's comments .
ReplyDeleteThis is the most racist site I've ever read. I know only one of you but your politics led me to read this. i suggest you take this off the web, but you probably won't allow this to be published. I'm definitely NOT voting for Turk or Akin. I leaned that way before - now it's definite. THINK people!!!!
