Take That: January 21, 2011

The Most Poignant Readers Comments of the Week

In response to “IS IT TRUE January 20, 2011”

“Weinzapfel with 1 MILLION behind him backed down to Rick Davis! Either Davis’s reputation is worth more than 1mil, or Weinzapfel has done 1mil worth of damage to his own rep during his time as mayor.”

Analytic

“Rick Davis is going to get smashed. All the times the JFK club went after different office holders, the celebration at Bar Louies on election night when Tornatta lost. Pay backs are hell. I’m sure the Mayor will put the money to good use.”

“You’re right. Pay backs are hell. Weinzapfel, Owen, and all their old-school methods (not to mention their blind followers) will be ousted on election day when they learn that their bullying and bribing only go so far.
Out with the old – in with the NEW – and Evansville’s best days are ahead.”

Vandy Democrat

“The Darkside Democrats are being overthrown, and yes, celebration is in order. Their response is: Paybacks are Hell,–Out with these Thugs and Good Government is the Future.”

Crash Larue

In response to “Anderson IN plans 12 ballfields for $6M”

“So in reality, it was a “Robbery” that was planned for Evansville.
Baseball fields were just the “Cover””

Crash Larue

“Did you notice the “growing athletes” part? Somehow Anderson has the ability to focus on and the ethic to allow their residents to personally benefit, as a priority.”

Eville Taxpayer

“I bet they didn’t spend $765,000 doing a study and getting that pretty picture drawn either. The tragedy is that if the local group would have had a proposal based in reality at a price that made sense it would have been approved.”

The Architect

“Wow, quite embarrassing for the supporters of our formerly proposed money-pit. This really rubs it in their faces”

Analytic.

In Response to “Report of Receipts and Expenditures for the Weinzapfel for Mayor Committee”

“ I wondered why I didn’t recognize many of the donor names. Then I went back at looked at the addresses. Many (most?) are not residents of Evansville, or even Vanderburgh County. Who and why are these people buying the mayorship of Evansville ???????”

Uncle Jim

“Lots of money in, lots of money out. Lots of money from out of the city limits, lots of money sent to DC and the Indy Central Committee. Lots of money to “Cardmember Services”, which seems to be just paying a credit card balance – government “transparency” at its finest!”
