  1. Within days you will see a flyer against those that voted no stating that they were against funding this job and that the no crowd is against fighting abuse and Fraud in government.

    Never mind the truth that it is a duplicate position as most voters will not know that.

  2. Would lame-child Eddie Komenda* get that spot?

  3. Snowman, and not to mention that Franks is trying to go around whistleblowers Law and oversight himself!

    Someone should have called the hotline about THIS!

    Isn’t the truth that he’s trying to fleece the county and wants taxpayer paid cheerleaders on the payroll that answer to him?
