Mr. Speaker—Please Don't Spank Me

 



On March 19th, I posted Oepidus Rex (click here) and divulged the meddling in our upcoming Wentzville city election by Republican In Name Only (RINO), Missouri State Representative, Brian Spencer. I told of him holding hands with Mayor Nickolas Guccione's Great White Hope; Robert Hussey, while he walked the streets of Ward 1 trying to convince its residents that "he be da man." I mentioned that Spencer was handing out taxpayer compensated state literature and endorsing Hussey at the same time. As Paul Harvey always said; "Now, for the rest of the story."

 

As every informed voter should know by now, Hussey is a Dardiene Prairie reject, after being fired from his City Manager position by that city, and besides, there are simply enough shady characters in Wentzville Government now. Enter Representative Spencer, introducing himself to residents using state paid pamphlets and endorsing Hussey. As cheesy, and underhanded as it seems for a State Representative to campaign for a local wannabe politician, there are laws, and Spencer found out the hard way. He got a phone call from the Speaker of the Missouri State House of Representatives who told him that if he wants to campaign for someone he needs to do it as "citizen" Brian Spencer, not "Representative Spencer," oh, and stay the hell out of other Representatives districts when you do. Unfortunately, Representative Chuck Gattesenberger was not a happy camper when Spencer came through his district campaigning for Hussey.

Where do they find these kinds of unethical narcissistic-sleezeballs; Guccione, Hussey, Spencer, Wright, Hays, Carter, Shryock, and Kross. All eight people who have an agenda, and are all hell-bent on the complete control and destruction of Wentzville Government. Aldermen Chris Gard, Rick Stokes, and Forrest Gossett are working hard to keep Guccione and his band of knuckleheads in check. They now need our help; vote April 8th for Forrest Gosset in Ward 1, and Rick Stokes in Ward 3, let Guccione know that we do not want his kind of ethics in office. Our city computers are clean now, and we want to keep them that-a-way.

It's two weeks prior to the election. Those with pitiful or nonexistent public records are hard at work slashing those with real accomplishments and worth to the city. I want to look at each of these useless individuals and list of their greatest accomplishments:

Nickolas Guccione: Guccione's record after almost eight years of public humiliation service has to his credit, one semi positive initiative; "Double Fine Zones." Unfortunately, those who trusted him to implement this program don't know that he made no budget recommendations and it cannot be enforced, tsk, tsk. Other accomplishments include; being pardoned for crimes against the city, running the foulest unethical campaigns in the history of Wentzville, and who can forget, using his elected office and city resources to entertain himself all day watching pornography in the comfort of his mayor's office. This is the man who leads the negative campaigns against three of the most effective aldermen Wentzville has ever known. and supporting two of the most undeserving; Robert Hussey and Linda Wright. Guccione knows that this election will be his last chance for a two-year free ride before he's dumped by the voters in 2016 and he's pulling out all the stops.

Mike Carter: He has restarted his blog and Facebook blitz, trash talking the three Aldermen who rank highest after a year-long poll; Forrest Gossett, Chris Gard, and Rick Stokes in favor of Guccione's flawed couple of candidates. He has tagged these alderman's Facebook pages with his blog which ignores any resemblance to what is really going on, but when they have no qualifications or public record, trash is all they have. Carter, as you remember is the failed municipal judge who after two years on the bench almost single handedly destroyed the Wentzville police budget. Voters realizing his lack of abilities said "Hell No!" and sent him packing in favor of Steve Martin. Carter has absolutely no interest in this election other than being pissed at the voters for giving him the boot (twice), and being Guccione's bud. You may also remember seeing his campaign signs that covered almost every square inch of property at the polls, lots of folks complained about that stunt.

Representative Brian Spencer: What can be said about a State Representative who spends more time and effort meddling in Wentzville and its elections than he does in Jefferson City? This RINO (Republican In Name Only) just got his ass handed to him by the Speaker of the House for campaigning for Hussey out of his district. Spencer is just another of those airhead elected officials who out-live their usefulness and most times become a bad one-term memory.

Robert Hussey: This is Hussey's second try at being a ward 1 alderman, last year he was unsuccessful against Cheryl Kross. Guccione took him under his wing after he was fired from his City Manager job in Dardiene Prairie, and even tried to sneak him into the Wentzville City Administrator position through the back door. When that failed Guccione thought he'd be perfect at replacing his enemy, Kross, and that didn't work out either. Hussey took one of Wentzville's fine benevolent society's membership list, against policy, and used it to send out campaign information, this should highlight his unethical nature. Hussey has nothing to add to Wentzville and these clowns are showing their agenda by recycling a candidate that the voters didn't want in the first place.

Linda Wright: Wright is another recycled loser but this time she's going up against a more formidable opponent, President of the Board, Rick Stokes. She came in a miserable third place in last years election with a pathetic 142 votes out of 646 cast. Guccione is running out of fresh candidates, time, and he knows that he needs to get rid of Stokes or the party's over and he won't get another chance to unseat him before his own mayor election in 2016.

I challenge anyone to bring fourth one positive public service either of these candidates (or their handlers) bring to the table, and then count the times each of them trash-talk their opponents. Gossett and Stokes are running on their records, Hussey and Wright are running on how much garbage they can throw and how much a Mayor, a State Representative, and an exiled municipal judge can influence Wentzville's election. This group of unethical boobs are trying to change Wentzville, and I'm sure we really don't want their change. Vote to re-elect Forrest Gossett and Rick Stokes for good and ethical government on April 8th.
