This Is Why Kentucky Can’t Have Nice Things

October 31st, 2011 · 3 Comments

In Louisville, there’s something taboo for the Democrats to discuss: buying the black vote. Because that’s truly what happens. You can rest assured that any time you see the name “Clarence Yancey” related to anything political, it’s because he’s buying up the vote with BBQ or by taking politicians that have never stepped foot in [...]

LMAS, EMS, MSD, Parks, What’s Next For Greg?

October 31st, 2011 · 4 Comments

Everybody and their mother is emailing us about ear X-tacy’s abrupt closure or whatever went down. It sucks when a local business fails, for sure. But it’s nearly 2012 and you can’t expect a business to survive if it cannot adapt to the market. [Sometimes Things Suck] Now that Robert White’s been shown the door, [...]

Really? This Isn’t A Campaign Stunt For Jack?

October 27th, 2011 · No Comments

By now, everyone has figured out that Jack Conway is only taking his prescription drug campaign stump speech to schools where the Democratic ticket happens to be visiting. He stopped in Louisville yesterday and his paid-for-with-your-tax-dollars spokesperson spent all day getting the press to write about it: And some still want to tell us this [...]

Uh, There Are Bigger Issues With Jerry Abramson

October 26th, 2011 · 7 Comments

While liberals in Kentucky who fear David Williams because of shit they’ve been fed by Jonathan Miller through the years, they’re turning a complete blind eye to Jerry Abramson and his problems. So, naturally, Williams released his latest ad (filmed months ago) that focuses on Abramson giving Carol Butler $85,000 to play pat-a-cake on Frankfort [...]

Flashback to 2007: Democrats Did The Same Thing

October 19th, 2011 · 1 Comment

Remember when the Republican Party of Kentucky filed a complaint with the Kentucky Registry of Election Finance (like this) begging them to take Bluegrass Freedom Fund ads off the air because they weren’t revealing their donors (remember Bill Yung and his $1 million contribution?)??? Remember that? They were alleging collusion because donors of the group [...]

Here’s Why Kentucky Can’t Have Nice Things

October 18th, 2011 · 3 Comments

Yesterday we discovered that Jack Conway has a huge hypocrisy problem on his hands. Seems he’s guilty of doing the same damn thing he and his pals are hitting Todd P’Pool for doing. Woopsiedaisy. [Page One] If Todd P’Pool had the sense to run against Jack Conway instead of trying to run against Barack Obama, [...]

Why Are We Calling This Innovation For Louisville?

October 17th, 2011 · 6 Comments

Failure in 3, 2… Call us Negative Nancy(s) but this is causing people all across the metro to roll their eyes. You can’t “innovate” if you’re just recycling your old, rich friends. [WFPL] Gigantic pee alert! HAHAHAHAHA. Wow. You’ve got to see this. [C-J/AKN] Matthew Barzun is once again making it rain for President Barack [...]

JCPS Almost As Bad As 4th St Live For Wasted $

October 11th, 2011 · 11 Comments

Yes, we treated yesterday as a holiday that was established in honor of a genocidal maniac as an actual holiday. Why do you ask? We got all kinds of work done. To the city employee who got drunk and parked their car inches away from our door on the sidewalk: Thanks. That was awesome. [Deep [...]

JCPS Assignment Plan+Bridge Disaster=Brain Melt

October 3rd, 2011 · 2 Comments

Papaw Beshear has an 11,000 point lead on David Williams (31) and Gateweed is pulling 8% in the latest polling. Gatweweed is definitely the surprise, as we never thought he’d get above 3-4. Meanwhile, Steve Beshear is STILL afraid to debate his opponents. Takes real cowardice to be that far ahead while fearing the folks [...]

Hope You’re Riding A Bike To Work Right Now

September 30th, 2011 · 1 Comment

Some of those jobs Steve Beshear boasts about creating just do not exist. But you already knew that. Seriously – just read the second paragraph and laugh: Hundreds of specific jobs that the Democratic governor identifies on his campaign Web site actually have not been created since the initial press releases went out, or they [...]
