Just SAY you made significant changes - poof, the mediocre changes become significant. Just SAY you made the changes that the public asked for - poof, you are so kind to listen to the little people. Just SAY that anyone opposed is just starting next year's campaign for Council early - poof - oops - that one didn't fly, did it. <br /><br />Its clearly Vaughn who is playing for next year. Last night he toss ethics out the window and got one step closer to bringing home the pork to the BRVA.Had Enough Indy?https://www.blogger.com/profile/09673791504434523246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826828000189814347.post-62784868220696121852010-11-10T00:23:50.411-05:002010-11-10T00:23:50.411-05:00"Deputy Mayor Mike Huber continues to bring f..."Deputy Mayor Mike Huber continues to bring forward ONLY information that he thinks helps his cause of privatizing a City monopoly and public asset to a politically connected firm, ACS, for 50 years."<br /><br />In other words, he is lying thief.Citizen Kanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17083803017411939029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826828000189814347.post-88724044438366849112010-11-09T22:29:50.902-05:002010-11-09T22:29:50.902-05:00Mike Huber is nothing more than a snake oil salesm...Mike Huber is nothing more than a snake oil salesman, the sort of joker who would come town in the Old West to sell the latest elixir claimed to cure everything. I don't know where Ballard finds these bozos. Huber has no interest in doing what's good for the City or the good people of Indianapolis. His goal is to make money for ACS on behalf of Loftus and Vaughn.Paul K.

Vaughn (R-Barnes & Thornburg) and Rivera (R-I Wanna A MBE Contractor) shamelessly pitched the deal again at tonight's council meeting despite their glaring conflicts of interest. Huber could not refute your analysis because he knows it is indisputable the city would be many dollars ahead to keep control and upgrade the system ourselves. People simply don't appreciate how much this administration and the Republican councilors have been corrupted by the greed of Barnes & Thornburg and its clients. We truly have lost control of our city until these bastards are removed from office.Gary R. Welshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15185079937305083438noreply@blogger.com
