Hey, Franklin, about that agreement to pay for an Interchange in Oak Creek.......relax!

I will give former FranklinNOW blogger Greg Kowalski this. He’s consistent, consistent in his irresponsibility.
The guy just doesn’t take the time to sit back, relax, take a deep breath, and THINK about what he’s going to blog. No, he prefers a mad dash to the keyboard to write something totally stupid. It’s a pattern with our young whippersnapper who likes to pawn himself off as a government watchdog. But if you’re going to do that, it helps if you’ve got your facts straight. Greg fails miserably.
The city of Oak Creek has asked that the city of Franklin share the costs of a potential Drexel Interchange. This has Greg’s undies in a bundle. Why, you’d think Cheesecake Factory was going out of business.
Greg likes to blog first and deal with any questions or related issues later. Because facts are not Greg’s friends, he naturally assumes that just because Oak Creek asked for Franklin to enter into a cost-sharing agreement, those nasty folks at City Hall that he despises will simply roll over and ask where to sign.
Let’s go to the transcript, shall we. From Greg’s blog earlier today entitled, “We truly need Franklin first”:
“As we all know, some Franklin aldermen will be pushing to spend Franklin taxpayer dollars on an interchange in the City of Oak Creek - - on I-94 & Drexel Avenue.”
As we all know? I didn’t know that…
“What I'm witnessing here, ladies and gentlemen, are some city officials boldly going where no elected official has gone before - - promoting to give our funds to an outside identity in the City of Oak Creek.”
Sounds like Greg probably blogged right after playing some Star Trek video game.
“To further my point towards our elected leaders, I'd encourage them to end the potential hypocrisy they'd be creating by supporting an Oak Creek project.”
There’s the whippersnapper, clearly writing that the decision by Franklin to share the costs of the Interchange with Oak Creek is a foregone conclusion.
Really?
Well, I admit I’m very curious!
So, I challenge Mr. Nobody Cares More About Franklin Than I Do, Mr. Woodward (Or is it Bernstein? No, that’s John Michlig), Mr. Franklin Watchdog. Please either e-mail me or write on one of your 13 blogs the answer to a simple question:
WHO ARE THE FRANKLIN ALDERMEN WHO ARE IN SUPPORT OF ENTERING INTO AN AGREEMENT WITH OAK CREEK TO SHARE THE COSTS OF A PROPOSED DREXEL AVENUE INTERCHANGE?
“As we all know, some Franklin aldermen will be pushing to spend Franklin taxpayer dollars on an interchange in the City of Oak Creek - - on I-94 & Drexel Avenue.”
“What I'm witnessing here, ladies and gentlemen, are some city officials boldly going where no elected official has gone before - - promoting to give our funds to an outside identity in the City of Oak Creek.”
“To further my point towards our elected leaders, I'd encourage them to end the potential hypocrisy they'd be creating by supporting an Oak Creek project.”
Give us the names, Greg. Who are they?
Folks, Greg can’t and won’t answer that simple question….
BECAUSE THERE AREN’T ANY NAMES TO GIVE!
I’m not aware of any Franklin alderman supporting this idea.
And yet, Greg goes off half-cocked on his blogs, printing false information that is misleading to the public and unfair to the people he writes about. That’s why his credibility is around zero.
Death, taxes, and Greg Kowalski stepping in it.
Here’s more on the story that Greg bungled.
NOTE: There were some earlier technical glitches with this post that seem to have been rectified.
