Liked the video but-

I think the video would have been better if it showed some vacant buildings with the condemened signs and registered vacant building signs. Bob my man, think creativley.

I must say, it certainly seems like the city of St Paul has chosen to declare war on the wrong group of people. Can we expect more of these leading up to the elections Bob?

I almost forgot, if you don't mind my asking...where in the world do you guys come up with all these different ideas to throw dirt at our city?

Is this a Tim Ciani production?

GREAT VIDEO!

I have also sent this viedeo out to many, many people. I think each city council member should get sent the link for their own personal viewing pleasure.

By the way the only way to fight dirt is with dirt!

3:17,this is not a Tim Ciani production..

If I told you who produced the video I'd have to kill you. :-)

2:29, the video must have hit a raw nerve with you. Thanks for the compliment.

There's a lot of dirt to fight down in those city council chambers. I think the voters are going to mop the floors with them this November.

Has anyone took a look at the bridges in St.Paul lately.You can see concrete chipping away and falling and they'll let cars drive over and under them but watch out if you have peeling paint on you rental.

Someone should take a video of some St.Paul owned property to show how uneven the playing field is.

This is Ciani through and through. Down and dirty and right into the gutter. Guerilla tactics will get you no where.

If you think that was down and dirty, just wait till the week before the elections. You ain't seen nothin yet!

Nice video, kind of pointless in a general attack on the council when some of the opponents would be less responsive to your concerns then the current members. But a fun approach.

Have you ever been sitting on the toilet and thought to yourself Corn? When did I have corn?

This video just made me think the same thing.

My response to Chuck,

This forum has evolved into a community forum with people from all walks of life and different opinions and beliefs.

Members here are divided in terms of wanting to see the council ousted, to wanting to keep all of them in power so they can be humiliated in a jury trial over the RICO's. And there is a few who would like to see council members like Montgomery, Harris and Bostrom hold their seats on the council because they are liked.

This being technically MY blog and not a full fledged group forum gives people the impression I am organizing this effort by myself. I am not. There is separate interest groups who all have there own agenda. We attempt to find some common ground to work together.

With the new forum we will have more of a sense of democracy versus anarchy. I am looking for 5 people who aren't afraid to disagree, and differ in view points greatly to be administrators for the new forum. I have found 3 people, I am waiting to here from one and I am still looking for a 5th. candidate.

When the new forum is up and running I think folks will be shocked at the diversity of opinion between the administrators.

After all, we are on a "truth seeking mission" and like minds may not have the integrity to maintain the coarse of discourse and desent.

To set the record straight it wasn't me.Just another person sick of the St.Paul shit.Keep accusing me and I just might do my own video.

That just makes me think of what I could throw together.Don't worry Repke it has nothing to do with you.

"....when some of the opponents would be less responsive to your concerns then the current members."

Pfft.

City budget shot to hell? Current members response: Send in more cash.

$1.5 Billion dollar investment for the West Side? Current members response: Stick it where the son con't shine.

Resturaunts and bars closing? Current members response: We have too many bars anyway.

Sometimes, when it's quiet, I swear I can hear Randy Kelly laughing his ass off..

How about returning to a council council that we never had to think of instead of waiting for the next "response" to impact us?

I kept waiting for some cartoon characters to appear in the video, but none did. Do you suppose they ran out of time or something Bob?

The cartoon characters did appear, you must have missed it. Right at the end it has 6 or 7 of them. They even have their names there so you know them when you see them.

Oh my God, Tom Swift has found this site!!!

I should have known that you would have loved the idea of 150 million dollars in TIF subsidy not to have an interest in the buildings like other TIF's (where the City gets something when there is a default) but to pay for "public" improvements. Get it?

This is the only TIF deal I had seen, and I have seen a lot of them, where the City is being asked to put up the $150 million first so that maybe if Jerry feels like it, he might build a Mystic Center (yes folks that is the attraction, we are all going to go to the West Side and become spiritual) a hotel and 1100 condos (when the condo market is in the shitter!).

Absolute total insanity! If Jerry wasn't so rich they would be putting him in a psych ward. (They didn't mention it in the press, but Jerry had his "spiritual healer" and "health food" provider with him for the meeting with the Mayor.)

And, Bob to my earlier point. As much of a focus as this site has on the issue of, should the City demo vacant buildings, you would think that your attacks on the council should be based on that issue, or at least how they are lumped together. That was all I was saying, since some of the challangers are even more "blame the buildings" than the current office holders.

Chuck, once again. I am not orchestrating an "attack". I happen to agree with you we would be better off with a few of the current council members.

I know this is my blog. HOWEVER, I share it with anyone who wants to post something whether I agree with them or not. I was asked to post this video.

I want to make it clear, personally, I understand the market that has contributed to the vacant housing crisis. Citizens got in over their heads financially with sub prime loans.

The city council past and present hasn't helped deter this housing market crisis with a seek and destroy mentality of condemnation of homes.

Chuck and everyone else, we have raked republicans over the coals here too. You have a gripe about the "right" Chuck bring it on. :-)

We are equal opportunity bashers at A Democracy.

Critics corner-

first of all the script at the beginning of the video wasn't on the screen long enough to even read it. several of the other script postings weren't up long enopugh to read and the video over all is full of IT. < i think i left the SH of that last word.

can we watch cartoons next time?

Time to bail out Repke. The elections are coming and all your buddies are going to be gone, and ya know what that means don't you Chuck? Well....we don't have to go into that anymore, we've been through it so many times, I'm sure you know your finshed......everyone knows it, but right now we have more important fish to fry. I read you BS about the primary elections Repke and I think your just a bunch of hot air. The reason people didn't show up to vote is because they don't give a damn about the primaries because they already know who they are going to vote for and they don't need the practice. It's gonna be a clean sweep Repke and you know what that means? Well ....le tme take a minute and tell you if you have the time. All these council people will be on the outside looking in after November! There's a new order taking over in St Paul Repke, and unfortunatly that winds us up right on your doorstep once again because there isn't gonna be any non profit money for you or anyone else. And that my friend means you are all washed up......finished.....expired like a parking meter that can't atract another nickle. Time to pack it up and move on out Chuck. I don't know what yourt going to do Chuck....I tried to get you that job flipping burgers at Mickewys, but you waited too long and now it's gone too......just like your source of funding is gonna be next month buddy. The people you are so fons of on the council will al leaving town under the cover of darkness....hell some might leave before the elections, and if you don't start making plans Repke, you'll probably be leaving with them.....probably riding out with them in some rusted out old row boat they are towing behind one of their cars. It would nice to have you stay Chuck, but in all reality, I think we are about finished with you.....you really don't have much to add and when you do, it's just DFL spin crap.
