Thanks to KICK-ASS KANSAS CITY citizen media journalists . . . Take a look at the marquee touting Mayor Sly's speech today.
Just a few points he's going to have to pick up . . .
- East Side Reassurance That His Administration Has Just As Many Goodies For The Urban Core In The Face Of So Much Corporate Welfare
- Demand For Support Of The Earnings Tax
- Denial Of An Uptick In Recent Violence And Homicide
The safe money says Mayor Sly will get his new taxes and more . . . But there's always room for doubt.
An entertaining look at the Uptown under-card . . .
More in a bit . . .
Sly's name in lights outside a theater pretty much summarizes his approach to city government.
ReplyDeleteDrama; fantasy; comedy;
But ALL empty entertainment.
Will there be pie throwing?
One Night Only!
ReplyDeleteLYIN' SLY JAMES!
You mean to tell me there isn't a city-owned place that this blow hole could use to spread his lies out to the public over having to rent a place?
ReplyDeleteSly will get up there and do a little soft-shoe sassy jig, tug on his bow tie and give a toothy grin; and the idiot rubes will just about shit themselves in delight at the fat man's antics.
ReplyDeleteThe rubes are angsty today.

Northland = growing faster than JoCo

Quality of life = nearly unmatched
City pride = all time high

Rubes = whining, shrieking, howling, yowling
WOW!
ReplyDeleteQuality of life, nearly unmatched!?
Infrastructure: Excellent!?
Cit finances:healthy!?
Not much need to go through the rest of the delusional list.
No wonder those 747s are arriving daily at KCI with more of those 24 million tourists that VisitKC claimed showed up last year.
It just can't be very long now before those rubes who live on the coasts will finally realize that KC isn't even in Kansas.
Frosty!
And amateurishly comical!
10:23's breathless list reads like a press release by the North Koreans describing that workers' paradise.
ReplyDeleteAnd it's about as accurate.
Apparently Sly has already hired some PR flacks to start his next political campaign and crap like this is the opening salvo.
Delusions at their best.
10:23 Chamber kool-ade keeps things frosty, and the math fuzzy.
ReplyDeleteRev. Mayor Mark in good company at The Uptown panders for the favors. Dotte buddies in some of those good KC jobs don't mind the lil' ol' 1% tax while KCMo residents don't get those paychecks. Rev. Mark should be getting his bill soon for the security detail at the pub and the payor, er, prayer places.
