Monday, March 1st ShowMon, 01 Mar 2010JOIN US TONIGHT to kill the tax increases! Even Bibb Commissioner Lonzy Edwards agrees with our 2010 Macon Tax Revolt, saying in his column over the weekend that the $4.5 Million tax increase commissioners want to pass on us will go to give county employees raises (employees who pay nothing towards their pensions and little toward health care!)!! YES, raise our taxes in this economy, where people are lucky to even have a JOB, so that you can give emps a RAISE!! Edwards goes on to say they have no idea what next year's budget will be and that more tax increases are coming soon, between the courthouse SPLOST and the attempt to merge city-county. He also says they haven't even met and discussed on making any cutbacks yet..that won't be for 3 months! SO..TAX NOW, cut..maybe..later. THIS IS WHY you need to join the Macon-Bibb Tax Revolt! 3rd grader at Morgan Elementary brings loaded handgun to school! DIVERSITY! Now, students from ALL levels have brought loaded guns in! Elementary, Middle (Bloomfield) and Howard High! The Howard High incident was a girl..the Bloomfield one MAY have gone on a rampage to kill lots, if his gun didn't jam (says the police)..and now this! EXCLUSIVE: Elaine Lucas..is APPEALING her "GUILTY" verdict in the Ethics Complaint I filed! Only one word describes this action: PRIDE. She's going to destroy herself, coming up with all these lies and excuses. Now, she says "when I said "that was a mistake, it was not appropriate to ask her to do that" (referring to using City Employee Dorothy Tuggle to send out a press release for the Gov. Roy Barnes event/fundraiser).. NOW she say's.."These statements were not an admission of guilt to violating the statute, but rather an expression of regret that the rules regarding the use of email accounts were unclear and regret the Ms. Tuggle had become involved.". RIGHT! "That was a mistake. It was not appropriate to ask her" means "the rules are wrong and they hurt Ms. Tuggle". RIGHT. In the end, this woman will not be taken down by you or me..she'll take herself down. You should pity her. Over the weekend, Pelosi calls us "astroturf" again. Who's astroturf? Frank Gadbois and Sarah Hunt are caught plagiarizing in the paper and Obama is telling them to call in to talk shows they don't listen to and read a script..and we're astroturf? The poor folks at Rutland High raised money for Haiti..only to give it to a crook! Yele Haiti is Wyclef Jean's charity. The one he took $100grand from to pay himself to perform at a charity event with! The one that paid 40% of his rent at his NYC studio and offices that are separate from the charity. OH..did you hear the SNL parody! SPOT ON! SEE..YOU..TONIGHT! CommentsalgoreythmCongrats on your victory 3/1 but dont get complacent. If there is no turnout of similiar numbers at EVERY hearing these geezers hold they will turn right around and do the raise. You cannot let down one inch! Keep your head up keep pushin!!!!!!!! kturnerga There is no reason on planet Earth that we can't do without many things in the city government and no reason for a tax increase. We can use our thinking caps. Lemme know how things go, you who are there at City Hall. DangerB Hm. Why does the phrase "IF I did it...." come to mind? (Yeah, OJ Simpson) DangerB WHAT KIND of PERSON lets their PRIDE stand in the way of what's right; truth, honesty, integrity. Lucas is scum and she knows it. THIS woman just OOZES corruption. Can anyone name me three POSITIVE things she's accomplished during her "career"? If you can, I'll give you twenty dollars. That's right. 20 BONES. RIGHT OUT OF MY PAYCHEQUE. looking at you O K we need to stop the tax increase. If the tax hike is voted down, what will happen? I would think before you decide, one way or the other, the answer to that question. I know when the Mayor cut some of the city employees to save some money, some went nuts. So no tax increase will mean more cut backs. More people out of work. Lilly PeLousy, is a Danger to this Country, should be arrested Immediately!! Lilly Beyond commenting on Lucas, she is a Great Liar, in complete Denial, seek Psychiatric help!!! Rayy'mond 6PM tonight at Macons city council...........be there....its time to let them know who pays their paychecks. Aint u tired of this waste?? Looking at you Cont. The question, No tax increase, what will happen, becomes very important. We do have waste to be dealt with.Is that enough. We are in this situation. No matter who's fault it is. We need to take the best steps we can, so we move forward and not backwards. We can deal with the who has the blame at the polls. DangerB We need to stop the tax increase. We need to encourage JOB GROWTH. The government does NOT have the ability to make money. All of it's "money" comes from US. The TAXPAYER. Focus on JOB CREATION -- MORE JOBS -- MORE PEOPLE SPENDING MONEY -- MORE PEOPLE PAYING TAXES -- not only taken out of their paycheques but on the goods and services they exchange their money for. Sales tax. BADA-EFFING-BING. Add a comment! |
