I find it interesting that Lexington failure Jim Newberry would attack the Brown Family of Louisville. Folks responsible for creating hundreds of thousands of jobs – not just in Kentucky – but around the world.
From the Herald-Leader:
Mayor Jim Newberry is a friend of coal. Vice Mayor Jim Gray is “associated” with people [...]

August 25th, 2010 · No Comments
Can’t tell you how many dozens of emails I’ve received about bad-tasting and smelling water over the past several days.
From WHAS:
Louisville Water says the recent dry weather is to blame. The lack of rain is allowing sunlight to penetrate into the Ohio River and promote algae blooms. It’s an aesthetic issue and the water is [...]

USA Today More Objective Than Local Papers
August 3rd, 2010 · No Comments
Wow. How is it USA Today can be more objective when it comes to the Ohio River Bridges Debacle than newspapers in Kentucky?
Authorities in Louisville and southern Indiana recently said tolls could generate more than half the $4.1 billion needed to build two new bridges across the Ohio River and refurbish a major highway [...]

Metro Animal Services Is Still A Hot Mess
June 11th, 2010 · 11 Comments

And in her latest email blast, she ripped everybody and their mother:
I am outraged over the current administration’s handling of taxpayers’ dollars. Let us NOT forget that the recent state audit found 69 problems areas with metro government mostly due to MAJOR accounting problems, including 23.5 MILLION dollars in question.
-SNIP-
I am disappointed over the latest [...]

Louisville & Florida Are Apparently The Same
April 27th, 2010 · 6 Comments
Last week Greg Fischer released a new television spot called “Customer Service” in which he promoted better internet access for Louisville and more transparency in government.

Remember October 2007 when the Republican Governors Association illegally coordinated with Ernie Fletcher’s failed campaign by running ads featuring a Louisiana classroom? [...]

LEO Weekly’s Phillip Bailey has a big feature on the demise of Mojo:
In accepting the new position, Redding left his post as chief blogger at The ‘Ville Voice, a successful local blog that operates in conjunction with the popular Page One Kentucky.
