I'm one of them.<BR/>Now, if it takes hardball, down and dirty politics to flush down the filth like Gray and many others like him then that WILL happen. It's not a threat or a promise. It's just the way it is. Our party promised the good people of Indianapolis more and it's high time that we started to live up to those promises. <BR/>NEVER EVER ASSUME THAT AN ELECTED OFFICIAL OF ANY PARTY CANNOT BE DEFEATED, BE THEY A DEMOCRAT OR A REPUBLICAN, REGARDLESS OF WHO THEY ARE OR WHAT DISTRICT THEY ARE IN.<BR/>Gray and his circle are a disgrace to the Democratic Party and they will not be tolerated no longer.<BR/><BR/>Contemplate if you will, what would happen if Mayor Peterson is forced to step dowm before election day. Think about it real hard. Impossible? Hardly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-10277970108862493692007-03-23T16:18:00.000-05:002007-03-23T16:18:00.000-05:00Wilson, the fool, is always silent on the criminal activities of his party. It is ALWAYS eerily quiet when it starts to hit the fan of someone getting caught with their hand in the cookie jar, or more appropriately, at the pea shake. <BR/><BR/>The party plays him like a puppet and, while well spoken, is a tool and happy to dance when they pull strings. <BR/><BR/>Oh the mighty Dems, how they will fall. It is the complete arrogance of their perceived power that will be their downfall, and then it will be the Republicans turn to screw it all up to. It is a very predictable cycle.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1490136275953264352007-03-23T15:34:00.000-05:002007-03-23T15:34:00.000-05:00More inane chattering from Wilson.

After today's Star editorial, I figured it'd be a good time to wear it downtown shopping, if only to rile up some grumpy Republicans. I got a generally good reception, with several nods of approval.

I've heard them all speak, and a couple of them in particular strike me as actually wanting to serve because of a sense of need; cleaning up the mess the Democrat majority has made of the Council, these past 4 years.<BR/><BR/>How is that feeble??<BR/>-From a Democrat tired of the antics of these self-serving foolsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-39070425142420373752007-03-23T12:36:00.000-05:002007-03-23T12:36:00.000-05:00Mr. Gray, to his credit, overruled the nincompoop Haith and allowed the resolution to go forward. It won't win because 15 votes are needed.<BR/><BR/>As usual, Wilson didn't answer the Gray question. He never will. Apologists don't have to make sense.<BR/><BR/>I, too, wonder where our prosecutor is. It is clear he's spending some time out of town lately. Attending glitzy Super Bowl parties. The goof has no sense, either...he allowed himself to be pictured with folks there.<BR/><BR/>If the council Republicans had some brains, they'd focus some attention on Ms. Franklin for her vote. She has shown a propensity to dart from her party. <BR/><BR/>And why wasn't this case taken to the city Ethics Board? That forum already exists.<BR/><BR/>Just asking.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-55422642063939479382007-03-23T10:06:00.000-05:002007-03-23T10:06:00.000-05:00Ethics charges need to be brought along with criminal charges of Ghost Employment, Racketeering, perjury as well!<BR/><BR/>Gray is involved in getting himself city construction contracts that were not disclosed, illegal gambling (is there a cash payoff for his support of illegal gambling?) His wife, who he claims to know nothing about is an investor in a bar located in a GOVERNMENT building!!! The zoning variance was approved by the wife of his council majority leader.<BR/><BR/>Does Gray have any assigned duties for IFD? Does he perform meaningful duties when on the payroll??? (We know that answer)<BR/><BR/>Gray needs to go!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-92154607329705158512007-03-23T09:56:00.000-05:002007-03-23T09:56:00.000-05:00Why should Gray be concerned. He and other blacks involved in racketeering always seem to have many race cards to throw down from the deck they were given by the whites who control the operations.<BR/>I am simply amazed with Haith's attitude. That sob needs to have his license to practice law revoked. How crooked can it get?<BR/>How much evidence does this town need of widespread corruption?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-6683579858363248062007-03-23T09:54:00.000-05:002007-03-23T09:54:00.000-05:00Brizzi? Who mentioned Brizzi? Not me! Read carefully: it is your Blogmeister ( a self-avowed Republican! ) who raised the issue of Brizzi's seeming complaisance...<BR/><BR/>It's an election year for the Council - the ebbing Marion County GOP is desperate for campaign issues - they know voters will overwhelmingly support Monroe Gray but by raising questions about him, perhaps enough other folk will get riled up and vote for the feeble slate of Republican At-Large Candidates. This aint about Monroe, it's about control of the City-County Council!Wilson46201https://www.blogger.com/profile/06987859307032067229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-54822674270290505072007-03-23T09:32:00.000-05:002007-03-23T09:32:00.000-05:00Wilson, I am curious, could you give us your opinion on the actions of Mr. Gray? At lease acknowledge there is a problem, and stop deflecting the attention to Brizzi et al when the real issue lies with a CCC President who very clearly has his own interests above those of both his employer(IFD) and the citizens of Marion County who he claims to serve.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-72926591098675564342007-03-23T09:07:00.000-05:002007-03-23T09:07:00.000-05:00Why the whining about <BR/>Susan Brooks? From what we are learning from the Justice Department firing scandal in Washington, our local Republican US Attorney is probably rated as a "good Bushie".

I recommended then that he sit down with his attorney (not Haith!) and make a few phone calls to prosecutors to work out some kind of deal for himself in exchange for testimony, before he's further humiliated and perhaps prosecuted.<BR/><BR/>Now the Star is recommending action against him. Is anybody surprised? Gray better act quickly (and quietly) before all of the cards are stacked against him. I hope you're reading this, Mr. Gray.<BR/><BR/>I also stated that Senator Howard may be on the same list. If I were him, I'd consider accepting the same advice - there are larger players in this scenario who will quickly sacrifice their local champions, as a message to others who are involved in protecting racketeering and as a tool to convince the public that action is being taken.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
