Thurs, March 4th Show

Thu, 04 Mar 2010

Pressed for time today, so I'll be brief:

Only 5 people showed up at the Bibb BOE tax hearing last night.  THANK GOD we have one last chance..our NEXT Macon-Bibb Tax Revolt is this coming Tuesday, March 9th at 5pm at the Bibb School Board Meeting at the Wachovia Bldg, Downtown Macon, 484 Mulberry, 4th Floor at the corner of 3rd and Mulberry.  BE THERE to stop the tax increase of $4.5 Million as they give Sharon Patterson a $200K golden parachute.  County Comission meeting will be the following week.

Would love to hear your comments on the Mayor's appearance today..

Paper is 3 days late after I broke the story that Elaine Lucas is appealing her guilty verdict in the Ethics Complaint I filed.  What's new is that the GA Municipal Association, who put this Ethics Ordinance together for any GA City, LAUDS the law and says it's working!! 

Meanwhile, we find out the city council spent months tweaking what some of them now say is vague!

WR Mayor Chuck "Baby Hugo" (Chavez) Shaheen is continuing to get DUMPED ON bigtime by the WR paper..

And..I went to town on the latest tactics of Obama with Obamacare..I played four clips of him saying it's undemocrattic, etc...to do reconcilliation, which he now calls for..without naming it..while having more people in white coats stand next to him..what a sorry show he's putting on.

Regarding the moving out of quality citizens and moving in of useless citizens: Everything revolves around incentives, there is an incentive for thugs and welfare queens to move into the city, thus giving more incentive for people that aren't thugs and welfare queens but rather actual hard working people the reason to move out. Macon should post billboards advertising their quality real estate for welfare queens and thugs.

Lilly
Reichert same old CRAP!! bends over, to defend Lucas, Impeach Coward-in-chief

Lilly
hey Red dog, the Mayor makes himself look bad all by himself!! ASS CLOWN

Will
Hey Mr. Mayor - If the citizens of Macon will have to adjust their budgets to come up with the money for the tax increase - CAN YOU SHOW US where you and the City of Macon have made equivalent cuts representing the same total amount in the City budget????!!!!!

Oh Chris, my roommate Larry Gray says, he agrees with me. and wants me to tell you. Your questions to the Mayor sounded like Lilly wrote them. If you ran a decent blog we would not have to post so much. Another trick to make it look like you get a lot of post. Larry wants to know why you did not print some of his post? CENSOSHIP. Sweeping comments under the rug. You are guilty.

Red Dog
Cont 2. If his reason was different then why did he try to cut the Mayor off. We head the Mayor say being on Krok's show was like crawling in bed with a python. Krok lied right in front of us and the Mayor, saying the Mayor called him a python. Now, this is what we get from Krok. Lies to try and make it look like he is on top of the situations, and out to clean up the city, with his high school questions. Krock you are a joke.

To RememberLisaTurk. Look all you have to do if you can is call me. My number is posted for you on this blog. I will listen to you,Do youhave what it takes to make the call. All you have ever done is talk about this, So lets get it out.

Red Dog
First thing is to say the Mayor did a great job of informing us as to why the Tax increase is needed. Nobody wants to pay more in Tax. That is a given. A no brainer. We will pay the price in the end.

Red Dog
Cont. When the cutes in police is made watch the uproar then. Crime will sky rocket. What about all the cutes that will be made in the city Government. A lot of services will go away. Krok is just trying to make a name for himself. He could care less about this city. He only reason to have the Mayor on was to try to make the Mayor look bad.

kturnerga
Bibbcommish we need you to speak about the schools come the Mar 9 meeting at BOE. I think you (or someone under your name) commented on a media outlet website and advised to "clean house" up there. Not that I disagree with that sentiment at all.

waaawaaa Remember Lisa Turk
Hey I is da big bad commish. I sue you jack. dork

Take the Python metaphor as a compliment. In 3rd World Countries, the Python's favorite meals consist of political rodents. Red Dog, fyi, we didn't become the 5th most dangerous city in the nation due to lack of Police Officers. Our Judges are solely responsible for that trend.

Red Dog
Python, Judges my foot. Better pay brings better officers. Police have to catch the bad guys before the Judge can hear the case. Lawyers are the ones that find the loop holes to get the bad guys off. People who desert the city are cowards. Krok is a coward. I would not want to be in a fox hole with the people that abandoning the ship, or Krok. In time of need they run.

Red Dog
krok, you are not batting to good. The Sheriff made you look bad. Now the Mayor shows you up. Joe Allen comes on and tries to get votes, by kissing butt, when his back yard is not so clean. You are all for him. The Mayor comes on with honest answers and you push them aside like they are nothing. This is our leader and we better start paying attention to him. Chris clean up your backyard before you start on ours.

Wow Chris, you've come full circle. My post critical of Joe Allen doesn't appear on your blog. So I guess you're not for free speech. Hey, ask ole Joe about Lisa Turk. What happened to Lisa. Why did Joe involve himself in a child support enforcement issue on behalf of his girlfriend? Why did he call Lisa telling her to back off? Why are you coddling a low life thief?

In regards to city loss of funds I have printed and looked at Macon 2010 budget - I urge you all to take a look at it and see 3 MAJOR venues of revenue loss Bowden, Centroplex, Waste Management

Will
Why continue to pump tax dollars into services that are BLEEDING MASSIVE amounts of tax dollars - any good profitable business - would have cut these losses long ago. Must have 5 plus years of loss exact pages to look at to follow

Roger
I enjoyed the time the mayor was on. I was on hold when the show ended and wanted to ask him about the "landhill". That will bankrupt the city if something isn't done now. The mayor has been......con'td

Roger
...con'td...the Mayor has been talking about the landfill for a while but Council keeps re-allocating the $$ elsewhere. Tax increase or no, the city is headed for bankruptcy in a few short years if the voters don't get rid of some Council members.

Bibb Commish is gutless coward who lies.

Red Dog, you are incredibly misinformed about our Criminal Court Judges and the Mayor's history of burying his head in the sand regarding Public Safety issues. When Reichert tried to mislead us that his tax $ need was motivated by his dedication to Public Safety, Mr Krok gave the Mayor a chance to get out of his lie by requesting articles on RR's nonexistent, prior attention to Public Safety.

Lucille
In the small town I grew up in they had "Citizens Volunteer Days" to get yard & maintenance work done on city properties--that as opposed to raising taxes. Or they scaled back hours on public parks & services. There are OTHER ways to balance a budget besides raising taxes--you sometimes have to get creative.

Red Dog
3rdWorld, If I am incredibly misinformed, please enlighten me? I did not understand your last sentence and what it had to do with Judges. I think you and Chris are assuming. I like to deal with facts. The Mayor does not produce a paper and right away he is a lier. The liar is right here running this web site. As he proved yesterday. I can deal with no Tax increase. Its what is going to happen after. Watch people go nuts about cuts.

Remember Lisa Turk
Do youhave what it takes to make the call. All you have ever done is talk about this, So lets get it out. Is that a threat, like the one you made to Lisa?

Will
Municipal Court Judge Bobby Faulker thank you for doing your job- interpreting the law and standing by your earlier decision on Lucas.

DangerB
Joe Allen was ALL FOR that consolidation crap. Pfft.

Lisa Turk Remembered
Joe Allen's Son also used to DJ at Atlanta Strip Clubs so Allen needs to worry bout his son and not the Spas which harm nobody and help many fulfill their needs.

DangerB
Why would anyone call someone online who can't even use proper punctuation and grammar while using the screen name "bibbcommish"? Whoever you are -- "Clean" or not -- you're certainly illiterate.

Lisa Turk Remembered
Joe Allen also had taxpayers pay his gal pals trip to Hawaii for that so called retreat a few years ago.

Remember Lisa Turk
To Lisa Turk Remembered, While Joe Allen has used Bibb County as his personal travel service and Bibb County did front the expense for his girlfriend to go to Hawaii, he did pay it back. The question remains, why is Joe Allen allowed to be so reckless and held unaccountable???

DangerB
RLT> Joe Allen thinks he's above the law. Above the rest of us. Bibb County is not his personal checking account -- but he sure seems to think so.
