Top 10 reasons to write-in Ross for County Commissioner

[flintauqua]

10.  He's owned land here eight whole years.

9.  He's a natural-born politician, can spin and back-track his way out of anything he says that's proven to be untrue.

8.  No one hates Liebau more than he does.

7.  No one hates Hendricks more than he does.

6.  He can serve two districts at the same time since no one knows what's wrong with Elk County more than he does.

5.  Hates Liebau

4.  Hates Hendricks

3.  Refer to #5

2.  Refer to #4

And the number one reason to write-in Ross for County Commissioner is (drum roll please)

He's never actually accussed anyone of wrong-doing, he simply "asks questions"!

what i would like to know is why would ANYONE Trust their politicians??   Come on now, its a known fact that power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolute.  Secondly with any position in any business if there is no accountability to the stockholder aka taxpayer, then there is always mediocrity as well as general waste.  When you don't question all authority, they will take control and exert their authority granted them in ways they are not allowed to.  IF this were not true, then why did the founding fathers implement checks and balances??   

Where are the checks and balances?  Outside of agencies authorized to watch them it is the taxpayer that is informed and knowledgeable about the proper workings of government.

I think Ross has a good understanding of what is proper and authorized, as does Patriot and several others on here. But for the most part  the ones who protest the loudest against what they are saying are the ones who do not understand the constitutional authority that government has and doesn't have. 

Seriously the things patriot and ross have brought up are not kosher.  They are not allowed by the constitution and are only practiced because they say its because its always been done that way around here. The truth is no it hasn't always been done that way. At some point in time it wasn't.

Quote from Flintauqua:
It is a big deal Ross. When you make an assumption and then post it here, you think if no one questions it then its right. Just because I or someone else doesn't call BS on your posts by refuting them does not make them correct


5. Hates Liebau

4. Hates Hendricks


Hypocrite ? You make the call Chuck. Seeing as you like proof
Could you provide the proof that Ross hates Liebau or Liz ? Hate is a strong word so I will call you on your bull shit---I mean BS

Proof?  Just read the over a year of posts from Ross, what impression do they leave as to his feelings about Liebau and Hendricks.  He makes negative assertions about their character, ethics, actions, morals, etc., to the entire world on a near daily basis, often several times a day, and you would have us believe he has what, a mild dis-like of them at worst.  'Come on, Man'

All the more reason to put Ross in as commissioner.  If he has such a good understanding of all that ails Elk County, then who better to serve and turn everything around.

You disappoint me Chuck. I thought you had proof instead of just an assumption. Come on---man---try again

[Ross]

He's owned land here eight whole years.

You failed to mention I have been a property taxpayer her for 8 years as well.
And a voter too!
Ownership is not a requirement to hold office is it?
But the number one reason not to write in Ross is he does not want the job.
#2 He is not asking for the job.
#3 He is an outsider.
#4 He is not inbred. (I believe this is to be the county joke) I apologize in advance if this offends anyone,

9.   He's a natural-born politician, can spin and back-track his way out of anything he says that's proven to be untrue.

No- no Ross is not a natural born politician. Ross only seeks what Mr. Flintiauqua and Elk Konnected, LLC do not want to provide and can not deal wit and that is truthful answers to honest questions. I believe they want us just to believe anything they fabricate. I don't believe they can handle the truth. Just my humble opinion.

8.   No one hates Liebau more than he does.

Now that is a complete fabrication Mr. Flintauqua.
You do not know me and therefore unqualified to make such a statement.
I have no hate in my body, soul or heart.
And that would be very poor advice to give someone to vote for anyone.
Shame on you. But I forgive you this ugliness.

   

7.  No one hates Hendricks more than he does.

Now that is a complete fabrication Mr. Flintauqua.
You do not know me and therefore unqualified to make such a statement.
I have no hate in my body, soul or heart.
And that would be very poor advice to give someone to vote for anyone.
Shame on you. But I forgive you this ugliness.
#7 & #8 are very hateful of you in my opinion, but I do foregive you for it.

6.  He can serve two districts at the same time since no one knows what's wrong with Elk County more than he does.

5.  Hates Liebau

4.  Hates Hendricks

3.  Refer to #5

2.  Refer to #4

#2 &  #3 continue the hatefulness and I am so sorry you feel that is necessary.
Hateful and Shameful but forgiven Mr. Flintauqua.

And the number one reason to write-in Ross for County Commissioner is (drum roll please)

He's never actually accussed anyone of wrong-doing, he simply "asks questions"!

Thank you for recognizing the truth on this occasion.
Those that claim to want to communicate with the citizens of Elk County citizens but refuse to answer honest questions are inadvertently admitting guilt of some sort, IMHO!
And your methods of attacking me simply confirm that thinking.

Yes this is all poitics. The politics of Elk Konnected, LLC and Elk Konnected Kounty Kommissioners and has nothing to do with love or hate. This is about seeking the truth which appears to be very elusive. But the threats and ugliness prevail.

Is this the Elk Konnected Followers way? This joke is at your expense, I feel sorry for you.

But isn't it more fun to sit on the sidelines and take potshots at the people who were duly elected to run the county ? That way Ross is never personally responsible for anything and nobody can accuse him of lining HIS pockets.
 It takes guts to run for office because one will rarely have the support of everybody about anything. One will make one "side" or the other unhappy most of the time.
 Ross is even retired, so he'd have plenty of time to devote to county business. No pesky job to get in the way. He could personally review every contract, keep track of every time card, approve every  county employees schedule for the day and count every stone that's laid so nobody gets more that anyone else.  He can follow the road crews around to be sure they are working hard enough and long enough to suit him. He can personally review the camp activities for each day to be sure they aren't "wasting" any time at free play, and approve the agendas at the fairs so he won't be disappointed ever again.  
 He can reduce taxes by firing local county employees, who will then have to leave to find work and lower the tax revenue even more, and then reduce county services to nothing... but there will be lower taxes. No more free anything, it's all pay as you go.
 He should then do all his shopping in some other county so he won't be accused of favoritism. He can memorize the long form of Roberts Rules so nobody will ever again slip up at any meeting.  He can read the Constitution aloud at every County meeting to be sure all those ordinary people are living up to it.
  I think it's a shame that someone apparently thinks that the ones that choose to remain silent, or are the silent majority, especially at meetings, are thought to be too dumb to understand what's 'REALLY ''going on. IMHO
 Perhaps  their voting rights can be taken  away somehow too, so only the "correct" Elk County people can vote. No new people may register with their radical "lets do something" confounded ideas.   IMHO
 No, of course there is nothing wrong with asking appropriate questions at a meeting, at the right time in a respectful way...I say a respectful way. But when it obviously becomes an obsession....one has to wonder.  No, nobody can be forced to post on the forum either.
If the way Ross twists what I say and the way he talks to me is any indication, and I'm just one harmless but interested person, some deportment classes, or some time sitting in a corner might set things straight.    
  Sure, he should run...if he has the fortitude.   Then he can see how much work it really is, and the fact that your time is rarely your own and you really will have to suffer fools who have their own agenda, and be prepared to have people remind you who you REALLY work for.
  Where did I get all this? Ross's own gripes at one time or another. Go for it Ross. The way a few talk you'd be a shoo in. But then, you would be one one of those politicians that Steve doesn't trust, wouldn't ya? OOPS...never mind.
  Now remember, these are just my personal opinions, but are indeed true; you may reject the truth as you wish. I'm just having some much needed fun. Everybody, write Ross in anyway! Bring in some outside blood!

Flinty, you must be a natural born socialist.  Your bend seems to lean that way most of the time.

And Diane you're no exception to the socialist causes.  If anyone rejects truth, it's you. 

Neither of you two objects to socialism and it's no wonder that neither of you would support true
conservative American candidates.

By the way, as far as I know, Ross has given no indication that he's running for any elective office.
I'd sure consider voting for Ross if I had the opportunity, but there's no way I'd vote for either of you
regardless what year your ancestors settled in Elk County.

Flinty, you must be a natural born socialist.  Your bend seems to lean that way most of the time.

If your meaning of socialist is someone that has voted Republican for President, Governor, U.S. Senator, U.S. Representative, State Senator or State Representative, in all but two instances since 1986, then I plead guilty.  

Of course there are hundreds of thousands of Kansans (a hundred million or so nationwide) that have done the same as I, so I guess you are calling the majority of Kansans, and citizens of other states that have historically voted Republican, Socialists.

Of course you are.  Everyone knows that anyone to the left of Ron Paul and the Sons of the John Birch Society are Fascist, Socialist Commies!
