Oh Baby, it Hurts so Good! So just how much will Mayor Drew raise your taxes this year? How many times will he use the phrase "together as a community" to justify his raising of your taxes?
If you are at home sipping a mint julep while the Mayor gives this televised address and take a drink every time Mayor Drew lies, will you be standing by the end? Will we be able to see Councilman Tom Serra's lips moving while Drew speaks?

10. Banish the Budget Blues'
The blues for old Kentucky, and the blues for Alabam
But a brand new blues is with us, if you read the daily news
Mister Scullin wrote it and it’s called the budget blues
But here’s an antidote so let us sing
This little chorus till the rafters ring
Good times are coming, keep on humming
Whether you win or lose, put on your running shoes
Give it a smile, get over the stile and banish the budget blues
A tax on all the little things that only a married man knows
Tax on pictures, tax on punters when they back a winner
And now they’re going to tax the bookies, when they get a skinner
A tax on bags, a tax on fags, a tax on wooden legs
To provide the old age pension for the grocer’s new laid eggs
There’s a tax on whisky, a tax on beer, but by the heavens above
What will all the taxis do if they put a tax on love?
So let us all be happy and we won’t care a jot
If we sing this little chorus they can take the bally lot

ReplyDeleteAnd....we just got Drew'd in Middetown tonight. 6. 4% increase in taxes with Drew in office. Worst city service ever too. Roads not plowed failing computer systems, huge rasies for lowered standard employees. MX zone changes and investigations into political coruption at CHC. Time for another flush and open a window to let the stink out.
ReplyDeleteCan't be that bad, Repub Council likes Drew's budget.
ReplyDeleteLinda Salafia and Debbie Kleckowski made it clear that they NOT in favor of DREW's budget. Phil Pessina, screwed them on the GOP proposal in January- he helped work on it and then he disowned when the Common Council meeting started.
