Sooner or later, Mayor Funky and his wife Gloria Squitiro are going to get in trouble if even more people contended that they're using their office to run for re-election. Their latest move is a reminder that the couple currently running Kansas City remain completely inept and politically tone deaf.
Today at a Committee Chairs meeting Mayor Pro Tem Bill Skaggs walked in with Mayor Funky and was asked to leave!!!
Skaggs sent packing should send a big message to all of the Northland folks who attended the very successful Deb Hermann campaign kickoff.
A great many people have noticed and are saying . . .
MAYOR FUNKY AND GLORIA SQUITIRO ARE OUT FOR REVENGE AND DON'T MIND USING THE POWER OF THEIR OFFICE TO TAKE ON OPPOSITION IN THE MAYORAL RACE!!!
Kicking a Council Dude out of a meeting without cause is pretty uncalled for . . . And it lets the imagination wander. So far the Mayor doesn't understand that politics is not personal and as he continues down this road I can't help but think Kansas City will grow tired of a politico more interested in his career than the best interests of this town.

Not good. Nice horse.
ReplyDeleteThe question is, was Gloria or Jeff in the room?
ReplyDeleteGloria is always in the room, even when she's not.
ReplyDeleteThose two ogres are destroying this city in ways most people cannot imagine. Why is she allowed to have such power at city hall? WHy can she ban employees from going to the 29th floor. It's not right, yet she remains. I can't wait to vote AGAINST Funkhouser.
ReplyDeleteWhat's kinda scary is what kind of shit are they pulling not in the public eye. I can't imagine what sloppy lazy tracks they are leaving and how much will be uncovered once they are gone.
ReplyDelete" and was asked to leave."
ReplyDeleteTony, Journalism 101 demands you turn this passive sentence into an active one.
(enter name) asked Councilman.... to leave."
I guess you didn't know who asked the councilman to leave so you went passive to write around what you didn't know?
Why didn't you call and find out and nail who asked him to leave? Your story DEPENDS on that little factoid and you didn't CLOSE THE DEAL!
No sale, Tony. You missed the story. You're not a closer! Why?
Was anyone there? Did anyone see it on Ch. 2? If you were there or saw it, your input would help the discussion!
ReplyDeleteIncumbents always have an advantage come election time--but there is a line that shouldn't be crossed.
Where was Deb Hermann? Is she welcome on the 29th floor?
ReplyDelete"crazy is as crazy does."
ReplyDeleteThe real problem with the Funk campaign is that while he won't get voted in by anyone who reads THESE BLOGS, and they are FEW INSIDERS, how do you move the obvious view that the FUNKS are unworthy to the general electorate?
ReplyDeleteThe Funks open the Sprint Center and play other reindeer games. Just remember how a lightweight, addict George Bush stole not one but TWO elections!
lets face it. blogs don't have the readership but we blogs DO have the eyes of the major media. How to help them report what we already know down here in the bowels of the good ship "Righteousness"?
Has this been cleared with the Paid Goddess of North of the River, Kim George Carlos?
ReplyDeleteThe Maor should remove Skaggs as Mayor Pro Tem. That position is supposed to be the Mayor's right hand person on the council and Skaggs has worked behind his back from the beginning including Skaggs and Hermann advising the Mayor against his better judgement not to tell the rest of the council about the plan to fire Cauthen and spring it on them. When it caused a huge trust issue the two sneaks didn't own their part in it. Insteadf, they tried to use it to their advantage. This is a preview of what the Hermann empire would look like. The council would revolt against her within months just like they did Funk.
ReplyDeleteOK Glo
ReplyDeleteThis is so wrong it's not even funny. I thought this was a "joke blog." I guess it's just a joke.
ReplyDelete"The Maor should remove Skaggs as Mayor Pro Tem."
ReplyDeletesquit you lost your "y" and you lost your fucking mind. Take a little walk to CVS and get your med. The walk and the pills will do you good.
