Theresa will have a booth at the Market this weekend, come by and say hi and have your questions and concerns ready for her. She will also be accepting contributions.
Even after councilor Jamison nicely asked the finance and parks department to stop peddling the ‘CASH’ payment lie to the public, the Mayor couldn’t resist to put it in his ‘State of the City’ address today. (Full Presentation:Â Stateofcity)
The money came from the Levee Bond repayment from the Federal government intended to actually pay off the bonds when they come due in a couple of years.
There are so many lies attached to the Aquatic center, what’s the harm in continuing them?

Theresa told me tonight that it is her birthday tomorrow, Thursday. She jokingly told me in lieu of gifts she will be accepting campaign donations 🙂
A foot soldier pointed out to me that he has noticed several political yard signs without a ‘paid for’ on the bottom of them (Paulson & Srstka did not), and he was unsure of others. I know that Stehly, Noble and Neitzert do have the disclaimer on them. But it begs the question if ‘paid for’ is no longer needed on yard signs, there is no city ordinance on the topic, but there is state law, which is about as clear as mud;
12-27-15.   Printed political communications to contain certain language–Exceptions–Violation as misdemeanor. Any printed material or communication made, purchased, paid for, or authorized by a candidate, political committee, or political party which expressly advocates for or against a candidate, public office holder, ballot question, or political party shall prominently display or clearly speak the statement: “Paid for by (Name of candidate, political committee, or political party).” This section does not apply to buttons, balloons, pins, pens, matchbooks, clothing, or similar small items upon which the inclusion of the statement would be impracticable. A violation of this section is a Class 1 misdemeanor.
Signs are not mentioned in the law, so one wonders if they are NOT exempt. Any lawyers in the house want to chime in?
