Jessica Logsdon is a Kansas City area artist, writer and publisher . . . Throughout this year she has created a series of drawings that poke fun at Mayor and City Council.
She also rune the Occupy KC Journal that's kind of a splinter publication supporting the local Occupy movement.
In her latest drawing she takes aim at Mayor Sly and Mayor Pro Tem Cindy Circo.
And while I don't know exactly what she's saying with this drawing, I still think this image is kinda clever.
More later . . .

ReplyDeleteWhy the Fuck don't we know what these dumb shit politicians are even voting on? The Mayor and the city council men and women last year spent millions of dollars renovating their chambers to "modernize" and make all of the voting and discourses recorded and made available online....So where the fuck is the transparency now that all the money has been spent on upgrading the information online?? I never hear about anything they are voting on, from the star newspaper to the local news.
