I’ve got a new campaign slogan for Jefferson Shreve: “If you try to please everyone you’ll please no one.”
Chuck Brewer, the sandwich man, got 37%.
Jim Merritt, the head of the Marion County GOP, got almost 27%
I can’t see how Shreve is going to get anywhere close to what Brewer got.
I thought the 1960s were over and we were done with racial preferences.
What a bunch of garbage this diversity and inclusion is. What we need is unity, not division, which is what the liberals are pushing and heralding as some kind of cure-all for what ails society. What heals and promotes peace is to treat each person fairly and honestly, and to strive to live the Golden Rule. But that is much too simple to do for the bureaucrats and their legion.
Are you suggesting Republicans are unifying the country? That’s insanely laughable if you really believe that.
If that’s the case, Joe, maybe a good start would be the Indiana Republican Party getting rid of their director of diversity and their diversity programs. Turns out they have one too…
So, we’re no longer diverse, but now we belong?
Since we all belong, why would we need a new city department to tell us that? DEI is now EBI. How brilliant and creative, and so unnecessary!
And for Shreve, why doesn’t he just say ‘anything you can do, I can do better’.
So far, this election campaign for mayor has hardly addressed anything traditional, like streets, sewers, law enforcement, and snow removal. They might as well be debating foreign policy issues.
Shreve will fail as there is no real difference between him and his opponent. Only benefit will be that downtown real estate will continue to get cheaper. Always was intrigued by some of those condos off Mass Ave
Downtown real estate is more expensive than it has ever been.
Mayor Hogsett pandering to voters prior to the elections.
Increases the bureaucracy of our city-county government at a cost of “only” $688K. Once the department is established it will grow and grow and grow and cost tax payers more every year. It will likely be ineffective and measuring the impact will be very difficult, so there will be little accountability.
Tapper uses Portland to help make his case …. a city with a declining population because citizens are dissatisfied with the direction of the city. Not a good example.
The City-County Assessor, Auditor, Prosecutor, Recorder, Sheriff, Clerk, Coroner, Surveyor, Treasurer and all Hogsett appointees are democrats. Can’t the Mayor trust them to manage their respective areas treating everyone fairly and equally?
G-d help us all if Ben Tapper the Diversity Deanlet sees Portland as a model for anything.
I’ve brought up Portland numerous times in the past as a shining example of what happens when ideology gets so fused with policy that it creates a two-caste system: those drinking the Kool-Aid and those who are not but are afraid to admit it because Kool-Aid drinking permeates every level of government.
“We aren’t Portland!” shout the bobbleheads in response to my alarm calls.
Yes, but now we’ll have a Deanlet who sees Portland as the shining beacon. Do we need people defecating in the fountains at Monument Circle too, Mr. Tapper?
