WEEKENDER III: What If Martin Had Been Truthful?

The Martin Chronicles staff has been spending some time playing the old parlor game of “what if”? We are trying to imagine the shape Villa Hills would be in right now -and we know it has always been and will forevermore be impossible-if malfeasant Mike Martin had ever decided to just tell the truth.

What if Martin had been truthful about the fact that he absolutely was suing the taxpayers for the ridiculous sum of $1.505 million while simultaneously asking for their vote in 2010? What if Martin decided that he really wasn’t “happy” to LIE to the voters and FALSELY tell them he wasn’t suing them?

What if Martin had been truthful about the fact that he always intended to disband the Villa Hills Police Department if ever elected mayor? What if Martin had chosen not to LIE when he FALSELY assured the voters that safety was his “first priority”?

What if Martin had been truthful about the fact that he always intended to ruin the careers of Police Chief Dan Goodenough and Assistant Chief Joe Schutzman if ever elected mayor? Why? Because Martin was and continues to be on a mindless vendetta stemming from the fact that he was caught signing his deceased mother’s name on his deceased mother’s checks, cashing them and sticking the proceeds in his pocket. What if Martin had decided not to LIE and FALSELY tell people that Goodenough and Schutzman just needed to learn how to “get along” with the miniature mullah?
 
What if Martin had been truthful about the fact that he never intended to repeal the UNFAIR $40 PER CAR STICKER TAX? Countless residents continue to tell us that Martin LIED to their faces about his plan to do exactly that. We don't even have to rely on what these residents say Martin FALSELY told them. We can just go back to the 2010 Cincinnati.com post of August, 2010 where Martin told reporter Jason Brubaker that-if he was elected mayor-he could find the needed money for street repair in the "current City budget".
 
But of course we "know now" that Martin has only found money in the "current City budget" to pay unnecessary, wasteful overtime, reward cronies who did his campaign dirty work with over-priced, taxpayer-funded jobs and contracts and-worst of all-use taxpayer money to pay for lawyers and legal actions to carry out his personal vendetta against the Villa Hills Police Department.
 
What if Martin had been truthful about the fact that he ILLEGALLY DESTROYED TAXPAYER-FUNDED CITY PROPERTY-the City safe-in a desperate attempt to discover some bit of information or document that he could MISREPRESENT as proof that-despite the fact that he signed his deceased mother's name on the back of his deceased mother's checks, cashed them and pocketed the proceeds-that he really didn't COMMIT FORGERY?
 
What if Martin had been truthful about the fact that he IMPROPERLY MISUSED City employees and resources in a covert attempt to promote the ridiculous 2011 ROAD TAX he tried to trick the voters in to approving? What if Martin and his cronies hadn't LIED and FALSELY claimed that the ridiculous 2011 ROAD TAX was just a vote to repeal the UNFAIR $40 PER CAR STICKER TAX?

What if Martin had been truthful about the fact that he launched a SYSTEMATIC AND ILLEGAL PROGRAM OF CITY RECORDS DESTRUCTION beginning in the very early days of his misadministration? Why? Because most crooks know it’s damned hard to prove much if all of the evidence is gone.  What if Martin had decided not to LIE as he clearly did when he FALSELY blamed his crony-hire, giantess, temporary clerk and his brain-dead, interim City Clerk for the burning and shredding of documents? What if Martin decided not to LIE as he did when he FALSELY accused Goodenough and Schutzman of planting evidence in the stunted sultan’s ILLEGAL records pyre?

What if Martin had been truthful about the fact that several people advised him in the very early days of his misadministration about what was meant to be a temporary arrangement for providing building and zoning services? What if Martin had been truthful about the fact that he consciously decided to continue that arrangement only because he didn’t want to do harm to his $1.505 million lawsuit against the taxpayers? What if he had decided not to LIE as he did when he claimed no one ever told him about what was always intended to be a temporary arrangement?

What if Martin had been truthful about the fact that he did and still does use family members-like his wife and sister-to assist him with his strange witch hunts against his perceived enemies? What if Martin told the truth about the fact that his wife and sister did and still do send open records requests for the express purpose of doing harm to those perceived enemies? What would people think of Martin’s FALSE CLAIM of ignorance about the source of the “anonymous” letter that triggered the State Auditor’s Report then?
 
If Martin hadn't told LIE after LIE after LIE after LIE after LIE he may never have become mayor and been put in to the position to abuse his power as he has clearly done time and again. If Martin hadn't told LIE after LIE after LIE after LIE after LIE he may never had gained the public platform that enabled the crooked caliph to blame the previous council for all of the turmoil for which Martin was-and continues to be-totally responsible. The previous council was voted out, unleashing Martin's LAWLESSNESS just as the Special Counsel correctly predicted in October, 2012.

But The Martin Chronicles understands that this is only a game of “what if”. We are fully aware that Martin is incapable of telling the truth. We know that Martin has been and continues to be so corrupt and so incompetent that he now has no choice left but to LIE.

Martin’s LIES are sure to continue right up to November 4.
