City Hall Jokes January 7 2016
1
It’s pretty small peanuts. Councilmen Charles Walker and Andrew Touma have pulled the chairmanship out from under Kristen Grandinetti more times than Lucy pulled the football out from under Charlie Brown.
In defense of his having prevented Kristen Grandinetti from being named council chairwoman, Andrew Touma, said, “Whether male or female all council members are equal. However, some council members are more equal than others.”
Kristen just doesn’t get any respect. The other day the homeless guy that hangs out in the city hall basement told her to move her car.
2016 is being called “The year of the political woman.” Councilman Charles Walker remarked, “Yeah, it’s the year of the political woman, but Kristen isn’t that woman.”
Irony of ironies. After having railed against sexism for decades, and after six years of preaching gender equality as an elected official, Kristen Grandinetti has been repeatedly taught that politics actually is a man’s world.
We aren’t saying it’s impossible for the councilwoman to become chairwoman. We’re saying Totes McGoat has a better chance of landing the job.
The men on the council are knuckle dragging throwbacks to the school of, “Keep them barefoot and expecting”…expecting to be named council chairwoman.
Ezra Scott, the rookie councilman, famously campaigned on his slogan, “A connected city is a protected city.” He issued a statement regarding the council’s refusal to name Councilwoman Grandinetti as chairwoman, saying, “An ignored Kristen Grandinetti is a bored Kristen Grandinetti.”
