THE PREMISE & THE UPCOMING ELECTION
I had a call from a friend who had me laughing so hard I had to get off the phone. Their idea was to put the truth, hidden in all the verbiage of the election, in simple form. Hilarity, took over as we jested about what a short message on a post card might look like. After we finished our conversation, I couldn't help but think what a novel approach it was, based in truth, in a simple form.
Much has been written by the Concerned Citizens about how they have to save you from the votes of that nasty 2009 canal majority Board. We won't take the time to go over again, the lack of truth in that statement. We'll go from the fact, that on the day of the 2008 Annual Meeting, there were six Concerned Citizens on the Board, including Zieske and Pietkewicz.
No more explaining, just the post card message that could read, something like this:
________________________________________________________________________________
I'M MAD AS HELL AT ZIESKE & PIETKEWICZ,
FOR DREDGING THE CANALS,
AND COSTING ME ALL THAT MONEY!
IF THEY WEREN'T QUITTERS - IT WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED!
NOW THEY WANT ME TO BELIEVE THEY'LL GET MY MONEY BACK?
NOW, THEY WANT TO USE MY ASSESSMENT DOLLARS TO HIRE A LAWYER, BECAUSE THEY QUIT, AND DIDN'T HELP ME?
I STILL HADN'T GOTTEN OVER MY ANGER THAT THEY QUIT, AND LET THOSE CANAL PEOPLE FINISH BUILDING THE WPA OFFICE!
DIDN'T THEY TELL ME THAT THEY SAVED A LOT OF MY MONEY BY HURRYING IT THROUGH, WITHOUT A PUBLIC BOARD VOTE?
THE ONLY THING LEFT FOR ME TO DO IS GIVE THE NEW FRESH GROUP MY VOTES,
VOTE FOR CLINE, DEMARCHI, STEINER,
STAND TALL DURING HARD TIMES - MCBRIDE,
MCMILLIN (FINISHED THE OFFICE)

If my friend could type, the post card message, might have looked like this. We would have included a graphic, but my friend can't type, and I don't know how to include a graphic on the blog. You'll have to imagine a frustrated voter holding their head.
