We here at OhioRedNovember have made a commitment to call out lefty blogs when they make lame claims about GOP officeholders/candidates that demonstrate an obvious double standard that does not hold Dem officeholders/candidates to the same standards.
Well my friends, here is another fine example here where the lefty blog tries to make a claim about State Senator Steve Stivers, canidate for Congress in OH-15, is “buddies” with the banking community, making a not so veiled attempt to say there is something “smarmy” going on.
Let’s look at this particular lefty blog’s hero Mary Jo Kilroy and her “relationship” with unions that is costing the taxpayers of Franklin County HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS! You can see the stories and Editorials in the Columbus Dispatch here, here and here.
Now, word around the town is that this story may only be beginning and that there may be more decisions made in teh near future that will give this “Pay-to-Play” scheme with Mary Jo Kilroy and the Unions even more scrutiny.
So, he who lives in glass houses…well you know the rest of it.
Why are the taxpayers paying for a new ballpark anyway?
Why are they asked to subsidize private enterprise? We can’t afford schools, teachers, police officers, etc. but we can afford $56 million to give a ball team new digs!
Mary’s websites “letter” claims to be for the working people. She knows whats its like to struggle to make ends meet.
I recently read an article in the Dispatch that the Commissioners are refusing to negotiate raises for the working people at the Cornoners office. I would imagine that has to be a rough job on a good day! Death, and biohazardous materials,etc. The article states that they are underpaid compared to other counties in the state.
Well how in this situation is Mary helping the working man? If she won’t do it on a local level, what’s to say she will on a larger scale?
