The Martin Chronicles observed last night's NON-SECRET MEETING miasma with a mix of amusement and revulsion. Watching Villa Hills' malfeasant Mayor Mike Martin attempt to run a professional meeting is like watching a two year-old boy trying to tie his shoes. It's painful to watch. But we do it any way. Why? We do it as a public service to our ever-growing audience.
It's very obvious that the misinforming Martin wishes the news of the $23,000 TAXPAYER-FUNDED BONUS CHECK HE PAID HIMSELF hadn't leaked out. Any discussion of that scandalous topic makes the misappropriating Martin very uncomfortable-and very angry. Too bad.
The taxpayers deserve nothing less than a complete and honest-good luck with that-explanation from Martin about how he can justify signing a purchase order that generated a $23,000 TAXPAYER-FUNDED BONUS CHECK TO HIMSELF. Given all the LIBELOUS LIES Martin has been telling since his 2010 dirtbag mayoral campaign and throughout the entire twenty-eight dreadful months of his Reign of Error, don't hold your breath.
One local political observer is offering an alternative theory on Martin's $23,000 TAXPAYER-FUNDED BONUS. The observer quipped that maybe Martin actually paid himself a 115 MONTH ADVANCE ON HIS MAYOR'S SALARY! Only in Martinville.
It's quite clear that the malevolent Martin doesn't like trying to explain why he removed the security door in the Police Department either. The little fella wants you to believe that he did it so that vile ancient crocodile Councilman Mary Koenig and her loopy puppet HBM-I can access the restroom. A nasty picture to be sure. Anyway, if that were true, why hasn't Martin removed the door that blocks Koenig and Holly Boo-Boo's access to the restroom in the City Building across the street? His LIE simply doesn't fly.
Here's the truth. Martin removed the security door as part of his ongoing vendetta against the Police Department. He will forever more be sore about his 2007 FORGERY ARREST. No amount of Martin LIES or silly spin by his TAXPAYER-FUNDED GOONS Toad McMurtry and Cabana Boy Craig Bohman can paper over that FACT.
Given Martin's bizarre, brainless budget bombast during his unremarkable years as a crappy councilman, it's truly amazing that the little fella didn't present a professionally polished budget for review and first reading to the council last night. We can only guess that he has a lot more "tweaking" to do. Or, he is awaiting the go-ahead from his "handlers"-Koenig, McMurtry and Bohman. This process is going to be fun to watch.
There were some funny moments last night. At the conclusion of the loopy HBM-I's unintelligible report, she turned to the vile ancient crocodile Councilman Mary Koenig and asked, "What else do you want me to say?" Koenig could solve this by taking up ventriloquism.
Former long-serving Councilman Tim Sogar may have provided the best moment when he referred to TOAD McMurtry from the podium. Oh, it got better. Mr. Sogar doubled down by "apologizing", saying his mistake was a typo-like Martin's Executive Order appointing TOAD on January 3. Hilarious!
Martin announced that the public will be allowed to comment at his May SECRET MEETING. Great. Thanks. No television. Besides, Martin announced that his plan will remain SECRET at least until October. What can people discuss?
Martin's train is off the tracks and rolling wildly down into the crevasse. Isn't this fun?
