When Greg Fischer first told me he was running for mayor, he worked hard trying to convince me of his qualifications.
Here’s the document he gave me:

It was supposed to convince me that he’s qualified to be mayor.
At the time, I gave him a DVD filled with opposition research against him. Contained on that DVD were documents proving he fabricated the ice machine story, lied about the magazine award, and everything else under the sun. In typical Fischer fashion, he continued to use push talking points and stories he knew I had disproved. Until local media started to realize I was right.
Unfortunately, the local mainstream paper will continue to ignore Fischer’s history and he’ll likely be your next mayor.
But I wanted to share with you the document he claims proves his qualifications for the job.

With words like scope, breadth, vision, orientation and exposure, it proves to me that he is a one dimensional candidate that has no PASSION, SPIRIT, or CONCERN for Louisville. He only talks about himself, not what he will do for us. Scary times if he wins.

Other? Just what did he mean by other? How about TaxMan since Fischer does not have a plan to reduce Louisville’s 6th place ranking as the most taxed city in America? How about Mr. Green Jeans? After all Fischer wants all city buildings to be green which of course there is no funding to pay for. Look at the bright side Louisville may be able to get that #1 ranking it has been striving for all these years. How about Bob the Builder? No that would be Hal not Greg. Hal wants new jobs by decreasing red tape while Greg has said the most important thing is “jobs, jobs, jobs. Well the only way the mayor can acutally new create jobs and a lot of them is to expand city government, something the present Democratic machine has showed they excel at. Hal has said he will audit city government. Note to liberals, an audit by a Republican is code speak to get rid of useless jobs previously created by Democrats. How about Ward Working American? Greg has already identified just such and the Progressives just love him. But, they don’t really know Greg at all. We all know Hard Woking Amercian is more liberal code speak for pro union which apparently Greg now is. But wait! How does even a progressive explain the real coffin in a real grave burried in the front lawn of the Servend property in New Albany? And just what is in the coffin and why is it there? Like Ricky Ricardo used to say to Lucy, only now its Greg, “You got some ‘splaining to do”. The coffin and grave, normally a respected place of dignity were ridiculed by Greg and other Servend executives when the defouled both by having a party to celebrate the demsie of union building efforts at Servend. The coffin is full of various union building material I’m sure the union would like to have back. How about Mr. Feely-Touchy as this guy clearly wants to be to known while ignoring his public past?

In one week this man will probably be Louisville’s newest chief executive, which proves the lack of a good education in Jefferson County has benefited the progressive liberal left.

Yeah, the libruls get everything.
Think before commenting. If you’re incapable of saying anything other than “libruls!” or “Clinton’s Cock!”? Then move along.

He left off my favorite reason: “Change Agent” (that’s kinda like 007 with a lot of quarters)
