What's Left of Maplewood (MN)

We can't draw, so we are left with verbal cartoons about Maplewood city politics.

Poor Ms. Cave

I see that the Maplewood City Election Voters Guide has been updated for the general election. At least one item in the voters guide yells out at me for attention.

I remember someone (George?) trying to make a case in the comments section on Will Rossbach's blog that the $1000 sign fine was going to take money from kids mouths. I presume that the mouths were those of 'becca's kids.

Well, before George, or whomever it was, cries foul, they should ponder how much lunch money is being taken by having the kids attend private school in the first place. Can you say (very conservatively) $12,000 per year?

Don't whine to me about how poor you are when you are pumping out $1000 EACH MONTH for something you are entitled to receive...for free!

And what does this say about the decision making for the city? First, she guts the Parks department because there is not enough money. Then she turns around and rallies to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on "protecting" the parks and open space through conservation easments.

Forget "Poor Ms. Cave." How about Poor Judgement Ms. Cave?

    Her answers are pathetic! Glad to see what a deep thinker she is. Let's not address any real concerns from voters. Let's focus on a legal, fantasy game sold to adults.

    I find Becky's comments about John's games to be remarkably similar to a letter I received a couple of weeks ago and a flyer I got today.

    Oddly enough, the letter claimed to be from the MVC and the flyer also bears the MVC name - despite MVC endorsing John.

    Gosh, I wonder if perhaps someone on the Cave campaign is engaging in Karl Rove-style anonymous dirty tricks?

    You really should report those. It is highly illegal not to mention unethical.

    The first one's already been reported, see the Lillie News article.

    I called Bob Schmidt and Alex Davy at the Lillie News about the second one.
