Op-ed: Tornquist, Hickey, Solberg nothing more than illusionists

by Peter Children –

Scott Tornquist is just being nice right now.  If he get re-elected, look out.

Travis Hickey, Janet Solberg, and Scott Tornquist are in the process of a crash course in black magic being taught by the master illusionist himself….Eric Bookmeyer.

These people want you to believe that they are new, never been here before they want you to believe that it wasn’t them who was sitting at that council table for the last four years. Hickey wants the people in the Second Ward to believe that he stood up to the hospital on their behalf, that he fought to compensate them for the lost equity they suffered in the value of their homes, that he was at least vocal. But the tale of the tape will prove otherwise. He sat there like a big pile of toxic waste with his head bowed capitulating to every single want and whim Mother Teresa wished for…then affirmed it with his vote.

Tornquist’s job is much harder, he needs to convince the entire town that he really cares for them….being able to pull that off would be like getting Bookmeyer to stand up in a crowd and proclaim he hated beer. Tornquist wants you to forget that he lied on camera in matters concerning the Human Rights Agency….but again it’s on tape. Are you going to vote for a person who knowingly lied? I don’t think so.

Janet Solberg was bad news for a church
Janet Solberg was bad news for a church.  Would Jesus approve?

Poor Janet, the first thing she should do is look into her heart and ask the parishioners of the church she tried to shut down to forgive her. Jesus doesn’t look kindly to things like that. She can ask Scott because he said he brings Jesus to the table with him. Scott should be working in a tent with snakes. The camera was proof that Janis was there even though to the good people of the Fourth Ward it didn’t seem so. Most might want dispute that. Her greatest asset would be silence….except of course when she is required to mouth the word “yes” every time Bookmeyer requires it.

Lastly we have the grand illusionist himself. Here is the only man who has attempted to convince an entire electorate that he is going to make a hotel appear in a parking lot. If he pulls it off he’ll get his own TV show along with a stage show in Vegas. This is a man who is far better equipped to offer eyewitness reviews on every establishment in North Iowa that has a permit to disperse alcohol. We already know Eric doesn’t speak hillbilly but to compensate for that deficiency he wants us to never forget he is is quite fluent in “country club.”…..and is well qualified to interview prospective maids.

To prove you can’t be fooled, be sure to make that fact crystal clear by voting.
