Hello Residents of the City of Cleveland - you do have a choice.  

Please rid us of the corrupt "it is what it is..." mentality.  Get RID of Frank Jackson and Martin Sweeney - vote for transparency and accountability (at least there is a promise of something-anything better than the STATUS QUO).

Plain Dealer editorial choices for council are again - a joke.  I can't wait to read their "endorsement" for Sweeney.  What creative spin will they use this time???

Sickening.

Governmental leadership in collaboration with the local not for profit industry have failed the public at large in 'planning' at multiple levels by completely disregarding demographic data that has forever been readily available to them in order to protect the residents in our community. Gentrification has been like gasification in Cleveland, Ohio.

Cuyahoga County fiscal management is like a street junkie selling anything possible to sustain its bad habits............and to stay alive and afloat in a fiscally irresponsible and negligent format. The high of getting debts- it cannot afford -paid only lasts for small periods...so they'll need to continue selling off delinquent property taxes and assets to sustain their responsibilities enough to appear like everything is normal. What's the long term plan to balance the budget, reduce fiscal mismanagement, and stabilize our local economy?

 No wonder our schools are neglected; Frank Jackson must be negotiating settlements all day long for the people who have already stood up to win case after case against the City of Cleveland costing taxpayers----MILLIONS OF DOLLARS A YEAR...............why are we paying taxes; so we can sustain the Settlement Package payments being payed to other wronged citizens...............

 

Let me understand this......707 people voted against incumbant, Brian Cummins out of 1028....68.77% of the voters were against him...but he still won?

I think it's time to really consider how you may have won the primary and potentially will win the General Election.........but Perhaps it is time to do the real math where the Voters spoke loudly. What is going wrong with your position in the Ward 14.... think about it Brian Cummins...Soul search about that math.....it says alot.

I would think this information is in the public interest. More government snooping, prying, control without any public input.

The article starts out :

Very odd, no one ever ran against Councilman Cimperman before. What happened? What changed?

Syrian Al-Quaeda-linked rebels are the ones who set off the chemical attack, not Assad.

I called Congressman Brown’s Cleveland office, 216-522-7272, last Friday, and gave the staffer an earful as to my opinions about the possible strike in Syria, Benghazi, the Patriot Act, Homeland Security (and many other federal agencies) buying enormous quantities of hollow point bullets (which I later learned are against the Geneva Convention, yet a year or two ago, one of his staffers unconcernedly told me that yes, they had to get them, because they are supposed to practice with what they are going to use--against whom, us?), habeas co

 When I am dead...please do the following: 

1. Celebrate my craziness.....

2. Take the thousands of feet of printed, documented, logged, organized, dot connected, and litigiously exemplified paperwork and archive it somewhere....or simply burn it.  I, of sound mind, leave it all to the REALNEO Coop. Only the administrators and Lily Miller really have any idea what it's all about. Prayerfully, it'll support many more evidence needed requirements to dismanlte the corrupt. 

 Did you recently lose your job? 

Need some help? Just a little til you get by? Soon; you'll learn what a full time job it is chasing all these programs for assistance that are meant to stabilize you which actually put you in further default if you allow it. 

Trust me...get a lawnmower and a shovel; offer landscaping to neighbors before you submit to this nightmare network of being used as a pawn for the purpose of serving as a quota.... 

MEYER POOL: Rumor has it that vandals attempted to steal the pipes there.....brought a boombox to drown out the sound of their sawzaws.....

A real county executive can not act exactly how our county needs to act in order to reduce wasteful spending....

They are playing chess with our commodities---securities and exchanges commission chess....our homes are commodities........check out the portfolios. 

Look, make one agency process applications for assistance for ALL forms of public resources....

Foodstamps, medical, cash assistance, HEAP, house weatherization, CSEA, etc....REGIONALIZE? 

 I went to Steelyard Walmart last week. There was a huge island of what looked to be beautiful pineapples....upon getting closer, the odor of MOLD permeated the area. As I picked up a couple pineapples and smelled them; it was obvious that several of the batch had mold somewhere on them despite not seeing the mold. I asked one of the workers if he noticed it...He tried several until it hit him. He hollared at a produce manager. That manager upon review stated that they would have all of them removed. There were other pineapples placed at different locations.

The primary for council seats is Tuesday September 10th - please get out and grill the candidates for your ward. Ward 14 candidates have their first forum opportunity on Thursday, August 15. See flyer for details.

7 people decided that your money was better spent on dumping the Telling Mansion 

I saw a comment on socil media today that said, "Ain't Nobody got time for that...."  

I processed that for a while because of a multitude of factors. First; I had made a post about my father being in town and his cancer status. Second, the comment was by one family member with multiple family member posts. Finally; it seemed like a smart ass comment which I took personal...but had to debate whether it had ANYTHING to do with us....So; I took a deep breath and thought long and hard about the semantics of it all......................and realized this much.....

Momma bear is a little upset this morning....

NEW KOR pollutes our community with toxic taratogenic chemical pollutants is being challenged by the Attorney General..........How many babies and adults have been poisoned by this company???? 

They are skirting the human impact and the victimization lists..................why?????????????????? Is the State benefitting from the victims of this crime just like the foreclosure money that was meant for tons of foreclosees that sits in the banks of Not for profit administrators who shuffle paperwork????????????? 

Much has been written here about the shameful way Frank Giglio has been treated and the illegal, not just crooked, way his property was stolen. Now, Lily writes that, although he is now on the monthly pay plan, there is a chance that he might also lose his mother's property. She herself is in terrific pain and so less able to do her usual, magnificant job of helping others.

 Look, I know this sounds stupid; because we all live different lives....but when I was campaigning; I wanted to impose a county wide CALENDAR OF EVENTS and post it so that EVERY EVENT IN THE COUNTY was posted, public, private, and in between.....Perhaps a database of opportunities free and costly, educational and artistic, loving and caring; for the public at large to see and have the timely opportunity to plan and participate in along the way....

Fun....what is it? 

Shall we sing, dance, drink, and be merry? 

Shall we swim, play cornhole, and watch TV? 

Shall we play some video games, watch a movie, or hang out around a bar? 

Shall we tell jokes, hang out around a bon fire, and roast some weenies? 

Shall we???? 

I mean; it's all a matter of opinion....FUN...

For the corrupt; it's robbing the working class and using the quotas of poor folks to climb the career ladders... 

For the working man; it's beating down the poor man...
