Commissioner Lairmore Slams Struggling Unemployed

Poor Richard has picked up on certain insensitive and condescending remarks directed against the unemployed of Gasconade County by Southern District Associate Commissioner Jerry D. Lairmore during a December county commission meeting.  It looks like other people besides me are noticing that Commissioner Lairmore is making dumb pronouncements and is unfit for the position to which he was elected. 

It's terrible enough that we have unemployed and in some cases homeless people in Gasconade County, but when the very politicians who should be helping these constituents by bringing jobs into the county hurl insults at them instead, well then that is absolutely disgraceful!

    To "Joe Citizen":

    We want our readers to see your malicious attempt to libel an upstanding member of the Hermann community, but we don't want to repeat your lie/rumor verbatim and thereby amplify your voice. We are therefore publishing a redacted version of the comment you left at 1:50 pm on Monday, 1/24/2011. We have redacted the name of the person you are attacking and other specifics which might identify that person.

    Hope you are proud of yourself, "Joe Citizen", for making allegations anonymously and without factual details. You are a gutless little worm!

    "Joe Citizen's" redacted comment .....

    "Couldn't be he was talking about (XXX NAME REDACTED XXX), who it's been been heard rumors are out that he's been double dipping the States already broke Unemployment fund could it??? You know that's fraud, and highly illegal, seeing he has a salaried job as (XXX INFORMATION REDACTED XXX), he isn't unemployed!!! Have you called the ethics board?? The State Unemployment division? The State attorney Generals office yet?? As a Big Time Investigator, we all know you'll get right to the bottom of this and tell us all the facts, correct? Here's Koster's number in case you misplaced it... 1-573-751-3321 We'll be watching for your unbiased honest report on this alleged criminal activity!"

    Bring us factual details, "Joe Citizen" (whoever you are). Give us reason to believe that you know what the hell you are talking about! Otherwise, we regard your comment as an unfounded, malicious accusation by a mentally deranged crank!

    Folks,

    "Joe Citizen" is ANGRY! He has come back to rant some more, leaving a comment at 12:15 pm, Tuesday, 1/25/2011. "Joe" always comments during the day, probably from his employer's computer. Is that computer a privately-owned computer or is it owned by a government entity like the State of Missouri? Now that would be an interesting story, wouldn't it?! "ANGRY BLOG COMMENTER USES TAXPAYER FUNDED COMPUTER!"

    Here's "Joe's" latest angry rant, redacted of course, so it is fit to publish and doesn't libel an innocent person:

    "Talk about kettle calling the pot black!!! (XXX PROFANE LANGUAGE REDACTED XXX) I did the same as you, and i'm censored!! Now that I find humorous, but expected. I knew you'd coward out to cover for (XXX NAME REDACTED XXX)... but fear not, it will come out... maybe a call to KOMU is in order... they seemed to like covering things to do with (XXX INFORMATION REDACTED XXX)..... my, calling me names! How professional! As professional as you refusing to do an investigation, you've got his (XXX PROFANE LANGUAGE REDACTED XXX) phone number DICK, call him at home! But you won't will you, afraid of the truth??? That (XXX NAME REDACTED XXX) is dirtier than (XXX INFORMATION REDACTED XXX)? Game is ending, you lose. (XXX PROFANE LANGUAGE REDACTED XXX)."

    "Joe", you're just an ANGRY loser! Give us facts and sources IF you really have a story! But you REALLY don't have a story! You are just a little bitty worm who is trying to maliciously assault the good character and reputation of an innocent man. The man you are libeling has more character in his little toe than you have in your entire pathetic body.

    If you haven't figured it out by now, "Joe", Hermann Hearsay is not going to participate in publishing and amplifying your lies! Take your pathetic accusations elsewhere!

    I agree, "the game IS ending". You (and your associates) shouldn't try to play chess with people who are smarter than you, "Joe"!

    Cough up detailed, verifiable information which supports your allegation OR get lost, little worm!

  4. It looks like Joey boy has packed up his coffee thermos and gone home for the day. What a pity!

    I was hoping he would tell us more!
