What was that, Greg, about Louisville being the most compassionate city in the country? What was that, again, about Louisville being the safest city in the nation? Quit with the damn buzz words. You looked and sounded like an imbecile while 95% of the city was stressed and saddened over yesterday’s tragic mess of death. [...]

But here’s a good look at the corruption at the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet and its latest shenanigans involving the Eggner’s Ferry Bridge.

January 19th, 2012 · 8 Comments
Does Louisville really need a “director of performance improvement” to be hired by Greg Fischer? At the tune of $112,000 per year? She’s supposed to “bring the best of private sector accountability, transparency and efficiency to metro government.” This story reads like a straight-up press release. [C-J/AKN] Here’s Jim Ramsey complaining about budget cuts. He [...]

Mayor McCheese Just Ruins Everything Forever
June 20th, 2011 · 10 Comments
How jacked up is Metro Government? So jacked that it can’t keep track of what paperwork for grants it has and has not received. You can thank Jerry Abramson’s corrupt and disastrous misadministration for that. [C-J/AKN] Looks like “Tan Lines” is getting lots of national attention. Thank goodness folks are filming movies in Kentucky. [indieWIRE] [...]

It’s Crusade Weekend, So Be Sure To Give Back
June 3rd, 2011 · 7 Comments
For the 30th day in a row (yesterday) Republican Party of Kentucky Chairman Steve Robertson is questioning Jack Conway: “It is neither mean nor out of bounds for any Kentuckian to question how the Attorney General conducts himself when he learns a drug investigation has been compromised,” said Robertson. “And frankly, for the father of [...]

Meet The New Mayor, Same As The Old Mayor

What was that, again, about me “making things up,” LMAS apologists? I told you so. The city is in talks with the Kentucky Humane Society to take over adoptions at Metro Animal Services.

Shame On Us For Thinking Fischer Was Serious
March 28th, 2011 · 17 Comments
Haha, shame on us for thinking Greg Fischer was serious about listening to the citizens of this great city we call home. Turns out he ditched his meeting in Butchertown to go to the Bellarmine game and has yet to reschedule. Imagine that. Please accept our apologies for giving him the rare benefit of the [...]

Today’s roundup/update thingy is coming at the end of the day. Because, well, let’s get real… SOMEBODY spent too much time outside walking a dog. What was that, again, about Louisville being the 16th-largest city in the United States? HAHAHA. 16th with a bullet, maybe! Right. The latest census data say we’re 27th. Thank god [...]

Maybe Things Aren’t Going So Swell For Fischer
March 24th, 2011 · 4 Comments
Neighbors are upset that sirens took more than an hour to sound after the ammonia leak at Swift yesterday. Count us as still pissed. We thought it’d be a cold day in hell before we thought Jerry Abramson’s administration was better than Greg Fischer’s… but… well… it’s pretty dang cold today. [WAVE3] Check out the [...]
