IS IT TRUE? May 2, 2011

IS IT TRUE that Mort Marcus has once again honored Evansville in a Mort Marcus kind of way?…that Marcus has pointed out the fact that Evansville is the winner of the “LEAST LOSER” award in the State of Indiana for losing less of the per capita income than other Hoosier cities have in the current recession?…that the Evansville region ranks 1st in Indiana with the same performance that places us in 68th on the national scale out of 179 economic areas?…that Marcus refers to such celebrations for not being quite as bad as some other places as “HOOSIER HAPPY TALK”?…that leading the pack in the loser’s bracket is just not as satisfying as competing for real leadership recognition UNLESS of course one’s head is so far in the sand that one is not even aware of how the rest of the country is doing?…that worldly awareness leads to world class aspirations?…that national awareness leads to national aspirations?…that if one only aspires to be the best on the block then one will surely achieve that distinction?

IS IT TRUE that obliviousness and lack of ambition lead to winning in national rankings in metrics like obesity and suicide, both of which Evansville leads in?…that the past is protocol and that much of where we are is because of where we have been or settled to stay?…that if one likes things the way they are that change is about as attractive as a bath is to a cat?…that this cat called Evansville is in need of a bath and that now is a good time to start?…that these race to the bottom statistics that we seem to be turning up as leaders in should be a call to action to local political and business leaders?…that our candidates for office are still not addressing these situations with any substance?…that our primary winners will be chosen in most of the races without proposing a darn thing?…that after Tuesday’s primaries the heat to provide some real ideas will be turned up?…that at least 3 candidates have already contributed papers of substance to the CCO and that we surely hope to see those three pass on to the general election as a reward for their thoughts and willingness to put something real out there?

IS IT TRUE that members of the City County Observer staff attended the Evansville Police Department Foundation Scholarship Awards gathering? ….the students that won the EPDF 2011 Scholarship awards were, Lauren Barnett, Andrew James Brickner, Kelsey Gelzleichter, Lauren George, Laura Molinet and Cameron Whitler?…that we not only congratulate the Scholarship winners but also Chief Brad Hill and Assistant Chief Robert Hahn for putting on this outstanding event?…that we recommend that you consider joining the EPDF 100 Club by donating $100 to this worthwhile organization by calling 812-436-4030 for more details?

IS IT TRUE people are saying that the political rift in the Democratic party is beyond repair?…that after the May 3 Primary that the fate of the Vanderburgh County Democratic Party shall rest in the hands of two (2) veteran office holders?…that the only individuals that can bring people back to the table to work out a peaceful solution to the correct the problems of the Vanderburgh County Democratic Party are City Council members, Connie Robinson and Dr. Dan Adams?

IS IT TRUE we are hearing that one candidate for Mayor of Evansville has told 5 people that he shall appoint them as the next Chief of Police under his administration. …that he also told 7 fire fighters that he shall appoint them as his next Fire Chief?…that we hear he has promised 11 people that they will be his Chief of Staff if elected?

IS IT TRUE that a member of the Evansville City Council tried to have highly respected member of the Police Merit Commission removed from the position that Mayor Jonathan Weinzapfel appointed him to?…that the above member of the Evansville City Council shouldn’t expect any political help from this individual in the May 3rd Democratic primary?

  1. The Democrat Voters are going to solve the problems with the Democrat Central committee, by throwing out the “Thugs” that have taken over and controlled their Party for far too long. The loss of power will be a bitterpill for these “Rulers” to swallow, but They won’t be missed by the General population one bit, and the Democrat Party will be much better with their departure from the scene.

    • Is it true that “Reform Democrat” thugs showed up at the Labor Temple on Saturday, and intimidated Democrat precinct officials and volunteers on the sidewalks and in the parking lot? Is it true that among the “Reform Democrat” thugs was at least one “Reform Democrat” candidate for council who is on the “Reform Democrat” slate and has been a key advisor to the “Reform Democrat” candidate for mayor? Is it true that this election may become a case of “meet the new boss, worse than the old boss?”

      • Is it true that after May the 3rd that Soon2B which tomorrow wouldn’t be soon enough for many, won’t have anything to whine about on the cco when all of his thug friends are defeated. Tuesday a message will be sent out by the people go away bad Democrats and welcome good Democrats.
