I am currently working on my best/worst of 2009 but no matter what I put into it nothing will compare to this one.

THE WIRE - ARE CHALK OUTLINES WATER PROOF?
KCK shows that it is still a crap hole despite what you hear about economic growth in the western part of the city.1. Gang banger named Puppet(not the dude in American Me) arrested for double shooting in KCK.
2. A dollar store gets robbed and the star thinks that the story deserves a video posting.
3. Another Hipanic Gnag Banger found shot in KCK. I am sure that this story has nothing to do with the other one........
4. News would be if you were walking in the East Side and DIDN'T find a dead body.
CHRISTMAS MUSIC ON XM
Music radio in this town sucks, especially when it comes to holiday music. Do yourself and your ears a favor and switch to XM.(except for when Petro or Darla's show is on)

Got your JOCO real estate property tax bill yet? I did - Thomas E.Scherer, The 3rd District Congressional candidate
If you are a homeowner in JOCO, your real estate tax statement is now available on-line at the county web site. Boy, are you going to be surprised like I was. I was hit with 3% increase in real estate property taxes. I have the data for the entire subdivision where I reside. For the 151 homes in my subdivision (Quaker Ridge), the tax increases were on all properties due to mill levy increases. Which is going to really make it difficult to win an appeal since the tax increase was not based on property valuation. It may be warranted for some attorney to file a class action.
The tax increases ranged from 1.6 to 6.2 percent. Yet, there was no decreases in property valuation. Which I still have to determine why. What you have to determine is whether you are going to appeal or merely join the case I have going to trial on April 30, 2009 against the county challenging the JOCO real estate tax appeal process. And remember, the county government is merely considered to be an instrument of the state.
The politicians in the Kansas legislature do not raise taxes (allegedly although almost consistently, tax receipts always go up in hidden taxes); so instead, they force the counties to raise your property taxes. . The Kansas Constitution clearly places the burden on the state legislature for funding state programs. So, be nice to the folks at JOCO KS government. It is not their fault. The fault lies with the politicians in the Kansas legislature whom consistently fail to follow the Kansas Constitution including their duties as elected officials.
Most of us know this is a sham process. What many may not know, is there was an amendment to House Bill 2018 taking away your right to appeal any sham process you have to endure by JOCO or the Court of Tax Appeals.
So, if you feel like you have been deprived your due process rights like I do, I suggest you might to join my case set for trial on April 30. As allowed by Kansas tax appeal regulations (KAR). What I hope you the voter and non-voter remember is that I am doing this on your behalf. It is my goal to restore your procedural rights to have your appeal heard in JOCO District Court, instead of all of us having to travel to Topeka to have the case heard by the Kansas Court of Appeals.
More than likely, since every hearing in this process is before an official of the state of Kansas, your chances of getting a fair hearing are about zero. The final stage of challenging your real estate tax assessment is either the Kansas Supreme Court or the United States Supreme Court.
In regard to me, I intend to take this sham process to the United States Supreme Court. Which happens to be the only place you can go on an appeal before someone not paid by the state of Kansas. Which will be my 10th case either docketed or attempted to docket at SCOTUS.
Why don't you join my case and stand up for your rights to argue unfavorable and rigged real estate tax cases back to our county state district court. We need to fight the amendment to HB 2018 (sponsored by former state rep, and now a Kansas Senator Tim Owens),
I called and faxed a letter to Senator Owens inquiring to what the heck was he thinking by taking away our constitutional right to due process in our county state district court. To date, Senator Owens has refused to communicate with me. Can't blame you Senator? If I took away a right to every homeowner in Kansas, I would not return phone calls either. But you might be able to explain your rationale on April 30th when I subpoena you to appear in court.
In closing, just be glad you do not have to endure the taxes of WYCO. Which are even worse. That is the No. 1 concern of their residents. And I intend to do whatever I can to help those people in WYCO, JOCO, and DG counties during this 2010 congressional campaign by doing stuff now earning your vote. So once again, it is Take Action Scherer fighting for your rights. I merely wonder what the incumbent and the 2010 congressional candidates are doing to deserve and earn your vote?

SYMBOLISM OVER SUBSTANCE - CAMP OUT
It is that time of year again. That's right, it is time for spoiled kids from the burbs to sleep in a tent and watch movies in order to bring attention to the homeless problem. Why can't they cut a check, do a food drive or SOMETHING.
This whole thing screams "pay attention to me", " I care more than you". What a joke.
THE WIRE - "KCMO IS FULL OF CULTURE & EXCITEMENT"
Some jack ass actually said that to me this week. He then went on to tell me that crime in the city only exists in the East Side and he doesn't think it has an effect on the rest of the city. I asked him where he lived and he said Brookside.........Enough said.
1. Teenagers in Blue Springs will have to deal with the fact that they live in a remote crap hole without the use of booze.
2. Murders have become such a part of our headlines in Kansas City that the thing that caught my eye in this story was that the two kids that found their mothered at home were going to take a TAXI to school. Seriously? A taxi?
3. TO SERVE AND MOLEST - Jackson Counties finest.
4. This is a stick up, everybody get face down.........
5. 14 year old girl gets in car with stranger.............. The parents of this kid need to be bitch slapped.
6. Why in the hell would you rob a shoe store that sells $5 shoes. Come on people, lets get with it.
7. Awesome! If more robbers were getting shot by employees the world would be safer.
