Comments on Advance Indiana™: Democrats Slate Robinson Over Mansfield, Residency Concerns Raised

We have Master Gardeners controlling the Political Operations. You are selected not for your abilities but, for your Political Genes in this case a strict genetic adherence to Crony-Capitalism. What plants grow in the political garden are strictly controlled. They can call themselves Republican or Democrat, but they are parasites, with few exceptions. The exceptions like Scales or Mansfield are targeted.

Swarens I see had a totally useless column about Smoking Joe Hogsett on Jan 30th. What are Joe's opinions are on the ROC Investigation, the New Criminal Justice Building, or Corporate Welfare for the Colts, and Pacers were not asked. How will Smoking Joe pay for repairing our crumbling streets, roads, bridges and sidewalks?? Not asked by Swarens. If you want to read Glittering Generalities about Hogsett by all means read Swarens Column.

Yes, for all their completely unearned claims of moral superiority, we see that our liberal Democrats are hardly an iota different from the establishment Republicans. Are the liberal Democrats any less bought and paid for by special interests, any less motivated by self interest and greed, any less willing to do whatever it takes to gain advantage (ZA, anyone?) even if that means throwing another Democrat under the bus, as in Mansfield's case ... uh, no.

It's the One Party, that's all there is. One wing works the right aisle, the other works the left.

Dems only endorsed 2 white women out of 25 seats! That's only 8%. That does not reflect our democratic base; let alone the district or the city.

Why would any thinking, informed person be surprised by any of this?
It is accepted that liberals don't have to follow laws, rules, or regulations. They are allowed to do whatever makes people "feel good."
But never fear, friends. The RINOs on the Council are close behind, attempting to catch up. You no longer can tell the players without a program.c

Do democrats really care about diversity or is it only lip service? Look at the lack of women they endorsed. Look at the lack of white women. Sad, sad, sad!

Shame on democrats for not supporting women especially one with such a strong democratic record.

Carl Drummer's and Lacy Johnson's appointments of "stiffs" or "mummy dummies" lacked diversity. Appeared racism at play. She didn't stand a chance with this type of mentality. What does this say about dems?

Leroy hasn't work at Pike Township schools for quite awhile. I thinks someone told he now works for the Department of Education.

Remember what LeRoy "I wanna be like Al Sharpton" Robinson did at a City-County Council Meeting that had on the agenda an act to remember the murder of Indianapolis Police Officer Jake Laird?

Well, here is the report, you can click on it...LeRoy's actions disgusts me. Furthermore, how can a school employee promote racism like this? Is moral turpitude encouraged in Pike Twp Schools by its staff?

"The phrase 'hands up, don’t shoot' has become a rallying cry in Ferguson, Missouri and it has led to a public outcry by our elected officials in Indy. Signs bearing that phrase were taped to the desks of five Indianapolis City-County Council members and visible during a Council meeting.

The signs have raised questions about what kind of message those Council members were trying to send.

August 18 marked 10 years since IPD Officer Jake Laird was killed in the line of duty.

So, would it be safe to say that LeRoy supports killing of police, our last line of defense? It has now been documented that Michael Brown tried to kill a policeman, attacked him, tried to get his gun, and now LeRoy Robinson is at an Indianapolis City-County Council meeting advocating same????

Sickening. That expression is anarchy at its worst.

It seems the parties ousting the good in favor of the bad is in vogue for both parties - Angela Mansfield on the Dems, Christine Scales for the GOP

Ridiculous. I've known Angela for over a decade since I worked with her on the smoking ordinance, and am one of her former constituents. She's smart, friendly and one of the few councillors who knows what constituent service is all about whereas a lot of other councillors will never reply to an email or return a phone call.

The fact that she is her own woman and thinks for herself has angered those who just want a drone who'll take marching orders from party hacks and special interests.

Let's hope the folks of District 1 see through the smoke and mirrors of Leroy Robinson and the loathsome characters surrounding him.

2015-02-07T18:50:03.925-05:00

I have asked Angela Mansfield to respond to a community concern and she really stepped. If I lived in her district I would definitely cross parties to vote for her. This city actually needs more councilors like Mansfield.

Intelligent, well-spoken, and logical. No wonder the democrats wouldn't want her there.
