I'd love to have Dearborn County pay for my supper too. This is a huge waste. No wonder we can't take better care of our roads. We spend it all on consultants and lawyers.

1/26 - $120 kickoff luncheon


Somehow, I did not get an invitation to the "kickoff luncheon"!

You would think my tax-dollars would at least rate me one canapé or a wine spritzer!!!

Absolutely amazing....Look what the County has for the money. Nothing, absolutely nothing. Is this still just a study? How many times was that said?

It's just a bunch of guys from out of town trying to take Dearborn County's money. I'm disappointed in our County government.

And to think I've been paying for my own meals all these years!
All that money spent on dinner dates and not even a peck on the cheek from these clowns.

I wonder if Vieste took our local RINOs out for a dinner and a show? Even though it was their first date, did our RINOs refuse to say no?

Did Mark Branaman and Mike Comparato charge extra for the Vieste love potion? How much is it costing us now to treat our RINOs with Kwell lotion?

This document should be published in the newspaper. Heads will roll. I think someone or several should have to answer some pretty tough questions. Ok, let's start with the Commishes and County Admin. Who wants to explain this? Also there needs to be some explaining done to the public from the County Council. Who from Council would like to begin? Which Commish would like to go first? County Admin.? How about you?

They will just respond that Thompson and his supporters are "anti-everything!"


Which is true in part.


Thompson and his ilk are:


Anti-corruption

Anti-graft

Anti-good ole boy network

Anti-governmental waste

Anti-conflict of interest

Anti-closed door and back office dealing

Anti-taxpayer abuse


Yep, Thompson is king of the "Anti's"!!!!!!

The good old Vieste boyz are living high on the hog in Dearborn County. County commissioners that signed that contract shame, shame, shame.

Now that Vieste and Dearborn County have parted ways, I picture Vieste officials sitting around another taxpayer sponsored dinner table with a whole new crew of gullible officials from another County:

Gullible County Official: Gee Mr. B, how to you propose we pay for all this new development?

Mark Branaman: I noticed, looking at a map of your fine County, that your County can be devided up into quadrants...

The carpetbaggers will just move on to a new area to find a bunch of goons. Will the goons listen to the public there, or will the rich steal from the rich and line pockets there too?

Why don't you make that into a campaign sign, Einstein?

I hope you know where all the DUI check-points are this weekend!
