He'll have a lot less with which TO fly first class soon, I suspect.POPAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00558836541249077077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-22395683328031860522009-03-14T09:47:00.000-05:002009-03-14T09:47:00.000-05:00Gary, if you read the IBJ article closely I don't think Tobias said he knew about the information. He just said he had been thoroughly "vetted" and his references checked out.Paul K.

Ballard may just be another mayor surrounded by ethics challenged people like Peterson was......next, he will be appointing Monroe Gray and Ron Gibson to some good job.artfugginshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05364503656694166926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-54695638713978774642009-03-13T16:26:00.000-05:002009-03-13T16:26:00.000-05:00Strange logic. Ballard has irritated lots of people but hardly 'stretched to do his job' now has he?Downtown Indyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06239811599722585898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-9819079309887156752009-03-13T16:21:00.000-05:002009-03-13T16:21:00.000-05:00Ask folks who really have experiences with Tobias. There is likely not a person in Indianapolis with a bigger ego. It makes sense that he would recruit someone like this as it appears he walks in the same way as Tobias. Seriously, look at T's history. I can only think that he has such low self esteem that he is required to seek out every form of self aggrandizement. Way to go Ballard. Another of your great empty suit approintments. Ask folks in the know how much T spends of the public money to enrich his ego. He only goes first class ++.Feduphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15686646543740394304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-32040843015401510992009-03-13T14:02:00.000-05:002009-03-13T14:02:00.000-05:00It's really simple, Gary. Did Clark travel around the world on the public's dime traveling first class and staying in fancy hotels? Did he throw lavish parties using taxpayer's money. What is Clark's excuse for how he treated an open records request? That stunt alone, if true, should bar someone from serving in an office of public trust. <BR/><BR/>I'd like to know the answers to these questions. That Tobias would blow off the stories raised in that article is quite remarkable.Paul K. Ogdenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16137003328850866711noreply@blogger.com
