More of Jacko's Dirty Politics; Friends help him as desperation sinks in

The mailer that hit town over the last few days is another great example of how Jacko does politics. Getting his old buddy Judge Jim McCann to help him sling mud with trash talk like this: http://www.thebrosnanplan.com/

He is calling in every dirty player he can to district everyone from the issues here in Livonia, and make it look like every democratic issue in the US is directly related to Maureen Brosnan.

Well, couldn't the same thing be said about Jacko? Why is he part of letting our young men and women die in foreign lands defending oil and the rich elitists?


C'mon now, let's be real. Neither one of the Candidates for Livonia Mayor have anything to do with higher taxes, unemployment rates, global warming, or the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Do your homework and don't fall for mudslinging tactics from Jacko. It's just a sign of a desperate old man clinging to anything he can.

That was not a cheap piece of literature, or to have a web site set up so quickly. It must be nice to have low friends in high places. Nice to know the McCanns are still up to their old tricks!

Everyone should know that Maureen is not responsible for the issues listed on that mailer, but unfortunately some will be mislead. No one I know has any idea where the anti-Kirskey mailer came from prior to the primary election and I am confident it was not approved by Ms. Brosnan, but it is abundantly clear who is responsible for this piece. Shame on them for turning this race into a mud-slinging partisian war.

And contrary to the tactics above I received a pleasant phone message from the Livonia Firefighters, Police, and Seargents & Lieutenants Union spokesperson who called, identified themselves, gave several factual and pertinent to Livonia statements on why they were endorsing Maureen Brosnan.

Quite a difference between how each group supporting each Candidate is presenting themselves.

One with respect, dignity, and stickiing to our local issues, and the other with mud, lies, misdirection, and scare tactics.

Not hard to make up my mind when this is what I see & hear from those supporting a Candidate like Jack Kirksey.

Unbelievable how hypocrital you all are after the nasty pieces came out on Jack before the primary. Including a postcard stating "Let the Death Watch Begin". At least this one had the decency to have a 'paid for by' disclaimer and return address.

Ethical? (not a whole lot is ethical in elections)

Legal? hmmm I don't think so.

And here I thought it was the LI that lowered home values in our city.
I'd agree with you, but then we'd both be WRONG.

This is not unlike the "recalling the board will hurt student achievement" pack of lies video that was created and aired before the recall election. Was Jack on the consultant "payroll" during that period?

If it were a fact that Brosnan has been a political activist for some issues that could actually impact us locally, then that information would indeed be relevant.

As it is, this ad makes no such direct links or claims and is obviously meant only to elicit purely emotional reactions. Everyone with an ounce of integrity should be embarrassed by this nonsense.

Renee, you want to explain to us us how you justify this drivel? I could use a good laugh today.

The answer to your question is a definite YES, and the documentation exists to prove it, just look at the invoices posted on Jack to LPS. Jack was on the LPS payroll during the Lawsuit, Recall, and the BOE Elections. He was employed as a so called Environemental Consultant on the old Cooper School site project. Since that has gone absolutely nowhere does it look like he was doing his job on that project, or quite possibly spending all of his time using his politcal influence and connections to defeat honest citizens trying to effect a change through a legal process provided to us all by the 1st Amendment Rights?

I am not aware of any nasty peices put out by the Brosnan campaign during the primary. Care to enlighten us? And no, she does not know who did that mailer on Kirksey and his age, etc. It was not paid for by her campaign or anyone affiliated with it.

If you want to see what organization paid for the nasty mailers and web sites against Maureen Brosnan, and who donates as well as receives money from this organization, then just take a look at this web site and check out the donations and contributions made over the years. Kind of like a "who's who" in the good ol' boys network in Livonia City and School politics. It's enough to make you wanna puke.

WAYNE ELEVENTH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT REPUBLICAN COMMITTEE

And this is only one of a large number of Political PACS that money is funneled through for our local elections. Much of what you see here is only a portion of what really goes on.

If you want to get rid of the same old "good ol' boys" network of friends and family that have ruined Livonia with their politics and games in the city and school governments, then you need to look at this site and view the expenses and contributions made from and to whom. This way you will know who they are.

WAYNE ELEVENTH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT REPUBLICAN COMMITTEE


This is just a small sample of the money and a list of the people involved in the good ol' boys network in Livonia. It's time to oust this political machine that is destroying our community and elect Maureen Brosnan and new City Council members ( get rid of Marecki, Robinson, & Meakin )on Tuesday, Novemeber 6th.

Then we can move on to the elections in May for the School Board and elect new faces without the political connections and baggage they carry and continue to begin the turnaround in Livonia.

DO IT FOR THE CITIZENS, DO IT FOR THE CHILDREN, DO IT FOR THE FUTURE OF LIVONIA!!!!

Interesting, veerrryyyyy interesting. Quite revealing actually, especially the past elections reporting for who paid into, and who got money from this, what I would refer to as, "a political money laundering front"

This logically begs to ask the real question here.

How is the ordinary citizen who runs for an office going to win without engratiating themselves upon one of these political power sources?

It does make you ill when you think long and hard about it. It makes it completely obvious how and why the current group of politicians have maintained their control.

Then match the names to Jack Kirkseys supporter list. The first name you see is Treasurer Carrie Ryckman. On Jacks supporter list? You bet. http://www.jackkirksey.com/endorsements/endorsements.html

Who is Carrie Ryckman do you ask?

She's an aide to Wayne County Commissioner Laura Cox.

Hmmmmmm...


Now... according to Kamp Kirksey, the public is led to believe that Maureen Brosnan has Wayne County in her back pocket.

Looks like Kirksey's pockets are full too.

Wow Extra, you seem to know a lot about such an anonymous piece of literature. To be able to say that Maureen knows nothing about it and that it was not paid for by anyone affiliated with her campaign? Very interesting.

Laura Cox and Mike Cox both live in the city of Livonia. They have a stake in the community as well as the county.

Hate to burst your bubble, but Carrie Ryckman is also a resident of LIVONIA. Someone who should be able to support whichever candidate they choose to support.

Please enlighten me as to how an aide to a Wayne County Commissioner makes/allows Kirksey to have the County in his pocket?
