TKC EXCLUSIVE AND BREAKING NEWS!!! STRANGE KANSAS CITY STREETCAR TOY TRAIN PHONE SURVEY SCARES VOTERS!!!
As Kansas City fears that we're on track for more violence when the temperatures get warmer, let's not forget that there's another costly terror train on the move.
To wit . . .
KANSAS CITY VOTERS ARE WORRIED ABOUT A RECENT PHONE SURVEY REGARDING KANSAS CITY'S TOY TRAIN AMBITIONS!!!
We've heard concerns about the questions but here's the weirdest one:
"If Kansas City was giving away a free Lexus for a 'yes' vote on a new street car line: Would you vote for it?"
Obviously, if this town is giving away cars . . . I'd like to be first in line. But it seems that this survey is really trying to gauge just how many crazy promises it will take to get a yes vote from residents on upcoming lines.
Clearly, they aren't asking anybody if they're okay with the Toy Train taking all of Kansas City's bus money.
Developing . . .
The Toy Train is just one of KC's many problems that came about during Mayor Sly's tenure. But it's also the most expensive.
ReplyDeleteSecondhand reporting of a phone survey? I call bullshit. Give me the audio or see yourself back under your rock, sir.
ReplyDeleteI didn't believe that they would actually pass this street car thing with almost no votes. But here we are.
ReplyDeleteNow THAT is bullshit.
Tony, you better get on board withthe streetcar or we are going to boycott yous ass and shut you down.
ReplyDeleteTkc is right about this one. Got the call last week and they even wanted money if u listened toward the end. When I got the call: Hung up.
ReplyDeleteCorrection, when I got the ask for money I hung up .
ReplyDeleteHand your money over. It will be easier that way. The streetcar will save kc.
ReplyDeleteThe Fire Department's response to the gas leak at JJ's was thoughtfully planned and well executed.

City officials are concerned about the loss of life in Kansas City's poorer urban neighborhoods.

The new East Patrol headquarters will curb violence in Kansas City's east side neighborhoods.
The City needs local control of the Police Department to effectively end any violence that may remain.
The Green Impact Zone has had a major, visible, tangible, and positive impact on Kansas City's urban core.
It is okay for City Council members to accept items of value from those whose interests they will be voting on. However, it is not okay for private interests to provide anything of value to private residents in order to secure consents that will further the private interests.

ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure that 9:32 is some kind of evil genius.
ReplyDeleteYou can bet your last dollar there is going to be more Kansas City violence once warmer temperatures emerge. That's not a threat but a promise. Rogues will be out in full force! Professional, political or otherwise THUG LIFERS. It's all the same.
ReplyDeleteBad boob job
ReplyDeleteGot the poll, it was a push poll to pump the numbers for both Sly and the street car. Clearly, if they are offering money to say you like them, the numbers are going to be skewed. very weird.
ReplyDeleteCAN WE GET A NEW MAYOR PLEASE?!?
ReplyDeleteOne who is not wrapped up with special interests like the ones involved with the $100 million 2 mile train that will cost the city a fortune, but fatten the wallets of the contractors?
12:37am. Please don't forget the cost of replacing the bridge across the interstate and the cost of moving the utilities under Main Street. This mess will easily go over $200K for a streetcar the taxpayers don't want.
ReplyDeleteAmazing how the City is ignoring the so called "frivolous" lawsuit. That is our only hope as taxpayers. If it prevails, City Hall has again wasted a ton of our money.
ReplyDelete9:32pm. Nicely said.
ReplyDeleteIf 6 anony internetters who don't even live in the city are against it, then me 2, specially if they post over and over again. Itmakes it seem like there 10 or even 12 of them.
