DEMOCRATS HAVE A BAD DAY

Today has not been a great day for Marion County Democrats.

City-County Council Member Patrice Abduallah formally tendered his resignation today, admitting he did not live in his district. Abduallah admitted he did not live in his district as reported here. He said he was devested at the decision, but proud to have served.

Meanwhile Lawrence Township Trustee Mike Hobbs was charged with theft and misconduct for reportedly taking a check from the Castleton Fire Department to pay his rent.

And to add insult to injury City-County Council President Monroe Gray says he got robbed. Gray went to the Marion County Prosecutor’s Office to file charges against an employee for theft but was told he had to do it from his office, but Gray no longer has an office with IFD so he had to file the report from home.

Ironically, Gray recently told me that he and his fellow Democrats have new nickname for me. They call me “13″ because they think my radio show is 13th in the ratings, however by looking at the above event, I’m not the one having an unlucky day.

    Bad day? That’s saying it nicely. It was more like a WTF day for Democrats.

    Poor Mike. He gets arrested for a DWI, busted hard on his bike and then gets caught using a political donation to pay rent. Damn, he isn’t a smart politico or Gray and them didn’t teach him crookism 102. You have to cash the check first then pay in cash. The sad thing is when I met him last year he seemed like a nice guy. Guess not.

    I wonder if Mike robbed Gray???

    I am confused…Gray no longer has an office at IFD? I though he was a paid fire fighter, yeah I know he doesn’t do anything, but shouldn’t have to have an office to get paid? What a crock of SH&T.

    Wait a minute…Monroe Gray is a deputy chief on the fire department but doesn’t have an office??!!!!

    He’s the only one!!!

    What gives???!!!

    Sweetpea doesn’t have an office at IFD because he doesn’t report to anyone and is seldom there. He is a Appointed deputy chief with a permanent rank of captain. He has no fire department employees under him so if he was robbed it must be by someone from his concrete company. Sounds like big time ghost employment, but the fire department has been told to back off by Bart and company.

    WAY TO GO BART BABY. You are soooooo corrupt it is hard to stand. Surround yourself with more folks like this. We are going down for the count.

    Even non-blogging ordinary folks are saying to me “Man, Bart is f***ed.”

    Keep it rocking Abdul! And when Gray and his cronies end up in the clinker, you can call them what ever their inmate number is, 548220145 or soemthing like that.

    Monroe needs a calculator to count to thirteen.

    Remember the stupid kids in school? The ones who sat in back and slept most of the time? Somehow they ended up in charge of our city.

    Abdullah’s error was trivial; he was hung out to dry by his fellow Dems for not backing gay rights legislation.

    Peterson will be swept to re-election relatively easily, at least 55-45, because the black vote will go his way 10-1. For someone like myself who can’t stand Peterson, this is as bitter a pill as my property taxes.

    Lesson to Marion County Republicans in the mayoral race and the City-County Council race in Abdullah’s district – nominate someone ! Ballard is as boring as cardboard, and Abdullah’s successor won’t even face a challenger in November.

    Never before in Indianapolis has corruption been like this….

    *The Machine has a councillor in a fake district, just to keep The Machine in power they lie and their clerk doesn’t say anything about it.

    *Appointed to the Airport Board by The Machine is co-owner of a bar in a taxpayer owned building managed by The Machine’s Township Trustee. Did I mention that the Airport Board member who co-owns the bar, helped acquire the building for the Township Trustee (at taxpayer expense.)

    *The Machine’s council president gets a no-bid contract at the airport for concrete work. Did I mention that he also is co-owner of the bar in the Township building with the Airport board member?

    *The Machine’s constable, Center Township trustee, and several of its city council members are on the tax delinquency list, and none of them have had their properties put up for sheriff’s sale.

    *The Machine has another township trustee who used Fire Department money to pay his rent and is now charged with Official Misconduct.

    *The city council president has an executive salary and title with the city fire department with a city car, gets caught visiting illegal gambling parlors, and has no meaningful responsibility assigned by the fire department to earn that executive salary.

    *The Machine has a second member of the city council getting an executive pay check from the fire department and a city car without meaningful responsbilities assigned to ear that pay.

    *How can a Center Twp Constable own a home valued at almost 1/2 million dollars?

    *Why does the Center Twp trustee drive a car illegally equipped with flashing lights and siren?

    *Why are there all of these patronage executive paid positions in city government (neighborhood liason, deputy mayor, director & deputy director of pubic safety) that get city cars?

    *The Machine took power and taxes went to record increases.

    If they thought that was bad, it was nothing compared to Bart’s fiasco on the Amos show today.

    Cackle..

    Actually Drummer was anointed a Deputy Township Constable by Tony Duncan so he can play cop and carry guns into places where they are normally prohibited (schools, polling places, etc)

    The Blazer Rapist Law IC 9-13-2-92 excludes Constables from making traffic stops or enforcing traffic law. The flashing lights and siren are still illegal.

    Please tell about Bart’s fiasco on the Amos show. I have heard nothing!
