When is Enough Incompetence Enough?

Are we really that tied to the Democratic Party here? Seriously. Listen, I vote democrat most of the time, but do we have to vote for a democrat BECAUSE they are democrat? I think our lovely mayor thinks that is the case. Hell, I know that’s the case. He trips over his own arrogance/stupidity regularly, and bam, he’s back for a third term. This time he was MIA when he was supposed to be signing an emergency order, and he has the nerve to get pissy with the news media when they asked WHY he didn’t sign it and WHERE he was! . (Apparently Brave Little Luke was teaching the big bully media a “lesson” not to speculate about his whereabouts)

The news media has MORE than enough reason to question where he was. How many times has little Lukey been caught with his hand in the cookie jar, or his ass in the Homeland Security SUV seat, or somewhere doing something he wasn’t supposed to be doing when something significant was going on IN the city that HE is mayor of? More importantly, when are people going to get sick of it? Apparently we haven’t reached that threshold. I sure as shit hope we do before the next election. He has done NOTHING aside from ride the wave of good publicity about the city. Come to think of it he has even managed to look like an immature ass doing that.

Steelerstahl…embarrassing.

Oh, yea…and heads need to roll over a man who called TEN TIMES to 911, only to die before the EMS FINALLY arrived on scene. A sad chapter in what seems to be an increasingly damaging “war on snow”. Listen, I’m not naïve enough to think that Lukey was directly responsible for this, but you can take the blame in a couple of other directions. Namely, if the snow clearing effort had been a tad better, this may not have happened (see 2008, and Laurel Highlands), AND if there was better coordination both intra and inter department communication this also could have been prevented. However, considering the general response to the snow, I’m not surprised at the lack of coordination and communication.
