The Martin Chronicles feels compelled to write it again. Nobody supports our men and women in the armed forces more than we do. No reluctance. No hesitation. And, we support the construction of the 911 memorial. Unequivocally.
But when Villa Hills malfeasant Mayor Mike Martin claims that his troubled town can no longer afford to protect itself, how can he justify spending THOUSANDS OF TAXPAYER DOLLARS on something called a "FUNFEST"? Does that make sense?
We don't care that Holly Menninger-Isenhour was already slurring her words during the announcement about the water balloon toss, telling people "first served, first come (?)". We don't care (too much) that vile ancient crocodile Councilman Mary Koenig did an unnerving version of the Cha-Cha. We don't care about any of that.
But we do care about the fact that Martin, Menninger-Isenhour, Koenig and others DON'T SUPPORT the people that keep them and the rest of the residents safe every day. We do care about wasting money on "FUN" when Martin, Menninger-Isenhour, Koenig and others say we can't afford "SAFETY". Talk about gross mismanagement.
Don't be fooled by what was said at the recent public hearing. Want a great example? Koenig slyly said she would only support "outsourcing as a last resort". Martin and the rest of his slippery supporters have been vacationing at that "last resort" since his dirtbag 2010 mayoral campaign. In Martin's low-voltage mind, the police department is already gone.
Beware of another trick Martin and his cronies have up their sleeves. They are playing word games. Martin and his cronies are changing "Keep OUR Villa Hills Police Department" to "Save OUR Villa Hills Police Department." It's a distinction with a difference. Check it yourself. Councilman Wischer actually changed the sign he has in his yard to read that way.
So why are they doing that? That's easy. Martin is going to fire Police Chief Dan Goodenough and Detective Joe Schutzman. As we told you weeks ago, he will then claim he has "SAVED" the Villa Hills Police Department, kicking off his 2014 re-election campaign oddly portraying himself as the City's "saviour".
Better yet for Martin? He will finally have his long-sought revenge against the two police officers he blames for his 2007 FORGERY ARREST.
