Harmful Extreme Right Wing Propoganda Disguised As Radio....Friday On WSPD

QUICK REMINDER- July 3rd 2009 at 730am History Documented founders Chris Wulf and RIck Neeley will be on WSPD with Fred LeFebvre in the morning. We are hoping to
show that there is still pride to be found in Toledo. The men and women who
helped shape Toledo into a formidable city are slowly passing away. One of
our many goals is to show area children there are many heros, and many
elders still among us that can truely be called "American Idols".

God told Joe not to run for office

Joe what if it was the devil portraying himself as god? :)

Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher — you know him best as Joe the Plumber from Ohio — said in October he was thinking about running for Congress, challenging veteran Rep. Marcy Kaptur, a Democrat who represents the Toledo area.

No more. Joe says his No. 1 adviser has nixed the idea, ThinkProgress reports, citing an interview he gave to WorldNetDaily.

TPPA and City Administration Have "Sold Out Toledoans"

"According to all the reports I have seen, the biggest loser in the TPPA/City
contract are the citizens of Toledo and the still laid off police officers,"
said mayoral candidate Jim Moody. Adding, "This contract does little to address
the costs of safety officers to the citizens of Toledo, insures the city of
Toledo will have a huge debt to pay in two years for which there is no plan to
pay for and leaves our streets with fewer police officers than just a few short
months ago. Our parents and children are now less safe than before. By accepting

Parking on gravel and grass Downtown

I noticed today that the City of Toledo is setting up a Parking Area in Promenade Park for the 4th of July celebration. Hmmm....I would be suspicious here. Looks like a quick revenue enhancement for the city. If you spot Sue Frederick with ticket book in hand, pull away as quick as possible and cover your license plate so she can't see it!

Contract

Okay so 3 years including this year, 2 year pay freeze, last year 3 and a half percent increase, overtime money will be held until March 2010-you can trade for time off though...other details on WSPD at top of the hour news.

Social Security Sending Money to the Dead

...On top of the 10 trillion the SSA is short, the geniuses have paid out millions in benefits to dead people, and have erased others from the rolls because they were wrongly marked as deceased.

How much jail time do these folks deserve? They are running a Ponzi scheme 800 times bigger than Madoff, losing millions by sending benefit checks to the dead, and marking living recipients as dead.

If no jail time, these people deserve to be fired and fined...

Kaptur's pork makes Drudge

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/jul/01/sweetener-helped-sway-vo...

The pork Kaptur added to the climate change bill which no one was allowed to read totals 3.5 billion.

Because of the price tag of this bill alone is essentially guaranteeing it won't pass the Senate but it's important to note it will essentially end up a tax.

However, with all the talk of unneeded pork in the struggling economy our esteemed representative added in 3.5 billion for environmental projects in Ohio and "other midwestern states".

Should city council go to the Governer and have him remove Carty from office?

Business owner sues city for towing vehicles

Why does this woman still have a job. She is not qualified for the position. A few years ago someone else sued the city because of her and won. This woman attitude is not one of a public servant but of a tyrant. Give the job who is qualified and send this woman packing.
Toledo has enough problems and don't have the finances to support this lady's fantasies.

House Republicans Object to Delay on Live-Saving Measure

COLUMBUS - The following statement can be attributed in part or in whole
to Representative Barbara Sears (R- Sylvania ), on the subject of the
House Democrat Caucus' refusal to pass Senate Bill 57, which would
permit sixteen-year-olds to donate blood with parental consent:

"Currently a measure that would help save lives, at no cost to the
state, is being held up by the House Democrats by what appears to be a
shameful act of partisan politics.

Senate Bill 57 would increase the supply of blood here in Ohio
potentially helping the lives of tens of thousands of Ohioans. The bill

Oops, Yet Another Lawsuit

Perhaps some of the city's money woes have orginated from all the lawsuits against the city, city employees and the Mayor. For example starting with 2008:

1. Karen Stranahan filed suit against the garbage tax stating that it was taxation without representation.

2. The Midwest Retailors Association filed suit station the the city was in violation of the 4th, 5th, 13th and 14th Ammendment of the United States Constitution.

3. The Civil Rights Commision filed suit against the city for discrimantory practices towards employees that worked for the Mayor in 2008

Toledo Mayor Says Black Thug Was Having A Bad Moment!

 
Robert Brundage, an older white gentleman, was punched in the head and left for dead, his bicycle stolen by a 15 year black thug about 6:30 pm, June 22 in Toledo, Ohio. He remains in critical condition and his outcome unpredictable.

What was predictable was the enabling, liberal response:
