Tonight we're not sure if this note on an important Kansas City upcoming book should be a caption contest or maybe a gift giving guide.
We're sure our AWESOME TKC BLOG COMMUNITY has a lot to say about a new tome documenting the imaginary life of Mayor Sly . . . However, this fanciful title would also make the perfect gift for development lawyers, consultants and all manner of corporate creeps, given that KCMO taxpayers will be putting their youngsters through college given all of the subsidies dominating the local agenda at 12th & Oak.
In any event . . .
CHECK THIS NOTE ON A NEW BOOK CHRONICLING THE IMAGINARY ADVENTURES OF KANSAS CITY MAYOR SLY JAMES!!!
It's looks like a fairy tale so I'm sure that there's probably a just as much detail about infrastructure repair in this book as anything written in a City Hall press release.
Check the presser thanks to an AWESOME TKC TIPSTER . . .
Debut: Mayor Sly And The Magic Bow Tie; Book Premiere
"Through the magic of his trademark bow tie, Kansas City Mayor, Sly James, takes young readers back through time for a tour of his favorite locations and landmarks and introduces many of the historical figures who’ve left their imprint.
"Launching the book – illustrated by Rob Peters – Authors Audrey Masoner, Aja James and inspiration Mayor Sly James join in a discussion of the unique project.
The program begins with a 6:30 p.m. performance by the Millennium String Quartet, featuring members of the Kansas City Symphony. They will play KC-themed selections, culminating with an original arrangement of Goin’ to Kansas City. Followed by a live book reading, Q&A session and book signing."

You decide . . .
And forward to Congress he goes!
ReplyDeleteWhat's the homicide count so far? Seems like that should top his agenda for December, not this kind of promotional event.
DeleteRight now the homicide is 130.
Delete^^^ might be approaching 140 by the time this even comes around.
ReplyDeleteSly's book title should be:
ReplyDeleteThe man gave away KC
Or
Buying a bridge from Sly
^^^ GROW UP!
ReplyDeleteHe is the Mayor and he has the support of most voters! He is doing the will of the people, even if you don't agree with him. He's YOUR Mayor. Isn't that what you say about Trump?
Brookside people are the biggest pussies in the Metro so please go back to sucking whatever cock you were sucking.
Deletewtf
ReplyDeleteMayor Sly Magic Bow Tie Boon? What kind of a headline is that?
ReplyDeleteIt's a children's book, & is actually a nice way to introduce children to the many highlights of your city. This is a good thing since most of them, like most of you, will spend their entire lives in Kansas City & never live anywhere else for any extended period of time, which is probably why so many of you think you know so much about the rest of the world, when you don't, really.
ReplyDeleteNo one is right all of the time, & no one is wrong all of the time.
This is a good thing he has done here.
You’re wrong all the time, Retard faggot.
Delete^^^^^^^^^^^^STFU YOU RETARD
ReplyDeleteNot sure which is worse, this “colored” book or him trying to sing.
ReplyDeleteI am dumber already from just reading the book title.
ReplyDeleteBULLETS AND PIZZA
ReplyDeletePIZZA AND BULLETS

ReplyDeleteBrilliant.
I don't like him or his agenda, but it's a clever concept.
ReplyDelete@8:06pm
ReplyDeleteWAKE Up Brookside Bob!
Mr. Bojangles shilling for the Chamber swells can't generate a voter turnout in double digits to save his life.
The great majority of KCMO residents gave up on the notion that their city government has any interest in them and the services they count on, and realize that Sly and the gang are just clueless gatekeepers of the public treasury whose major role is to hold the door while "developers', insiders, campaign contributors, grifters, and assorted other usual suspects roll wheelbarrows full of cash our of city hall.
All PR and hype, all the time.
Fortunately for Sly, he'll be long gone before all the bills come due.
Unfortunately for you, you're still be in KCMO.
sLIE is and always will be a worthless black, he’s killing this city because he only does what he wants and that is to spend your money on what pleases him, not you. He’s getting his reparations by taking your money!
ReplyDeleteKilla City needs magic to save us from ourselves.
ReplyDeleteL.A. Times article on arrival of Barry Soetero Hussein Obama on national scene -

Obama the 'Magic Negro'
David EhrensteinL.A.-based DAVID EHRENSTEIN writes about Hollywood and politics.
March 19, 2007
AS EVERY CARBON-BASED life form on this planet surely knows, Barack Obama, the junior Democratic senator from Illinois, is running for president. Since making his announcement, there has been no end of commentary about him in all quarters — musing over his charisma and the prospect he offers of being the first African American to be elected to the White House.
But it's clear that Obama also is running for an equally important unelected office, in the province of the popular imagination — the "Magic Negro."
He's there to assuage white "guilt" (i.e., the minimal discomfort they feel) over the role of slavery and racial segregation in American history, while replacing stereotypes of a dangerous, highly sexualized black man with a benign figure for whom interracial sexual congress holds no interest.
As might be expected, this figure is chiefly cinematic — embodied by such noted performers as Sidney Poitier, Morgan Freeman, Scatman Crothers, Michael Clarke Duncan, Will Smith and, most recently, Don Cheadle. And that's not to mention a certain basketball player whose very nickname is "Magic."
Obama's fame right now has little to do with his political record or what he's written in his two (count 'em) books, or even what he's actually said in those stem-winders. It's the way he's said it that counts the most. It's his manner, which, as presidential hopeful Sen. Joe Biden ham-fistedly reminded us, is "articulate." His tone is always genial, his voice warm and unthreatening, and he hasn't called his opponents names (despite being baited by the media).
Like a comic-book superhero, Obama is there to help, out of the sheer goodness of a heart we need not know or understand. For as with all Magic Negroes, the less real he seems, the more desirable he becomes. If he were real, white America couldn't project all its fantasies of curative black benevolence on him.
what an ego on this guy.
