I applaud their govt for at least attempting to function within the budget they have & not come to taxpayers every year for more money. What's to dis about that? I am very grateful for Theriot's win. I may not agree with him on some issues, but I sure didn't think the council needed another yes man. And when it comes budget time, I WANT someone questioning the numbers, not just "yessss sirring" it on through. I believe there is a whole lot of room for more fiscal responsibility in this parish's governmental agencies but no one is insisting on it. I'm sure Mr. Campbell is a good man, but I just didn't get the impression he is his own man & would be willing to buck the administration or even the rest of the council. - Morrow Mon, 24 Oct 2011 09:21:40 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/9212-so-little-says-so-much-about-district-9-councilman#comment-23768 Northside Shotgun, As I read your MANY posts against Joey, Walter and just about everyone in Lafayette on the Independents blogs. I have one question... Why don't YOU run for political office? You seem to have it all figured out and know how to do the job better.. or at least go to a council meeting to try to help the problems we do have.. PS: I think you have a crush on Joey.. - #truth Thu, 20 Oct 2011 13:35:29 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/9212-so-little-says-so-much-about-district-9-councilman#comment-23740 TO LAFAYETTE, you want entertainment......" Then, pay for it ! Why should peeps who have never seen the inside, and who will never get to see the inside of PASA, or ACA, provide this for ya scrawny tight ass. These are the same peeps whose children never have seen the inside of CHUCKY CHEESE, WHY ? Because they can't afford it. So tell me again, why they should pull the wagon while your lazy tight ass rides on top. Pray tell, how do you keep your balance, ya got one of them bracelets ? THE ARTS HAVE PATRONS, chip in clown. - NORTHSIDIAN SHOTGUN Thu, 20 Oct 2011 00:04:05 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/9212-so-little-says-so-much-about-district-9-councilman#comment-23738 Walter Pierce for " Mayor ! The first thousand signees of this proclamation of emancipation from Durel & CO.'s puppeteers troupe, will earn exclusive membership in the new and improved, BALL BUSTERS CLUB. Hurry and sign up, and yes, we are accepting Yuppie's, Sighhhhhhh ! Lets take our city back from Joey, Zooschlag, Festermaker, and Co. C'mon people how long ya gonna prostrate, and grovel, look at yourself. We've needed a change two terms ago ! This yahoo will sellout his MAMA ! - NORTHSIDIAN SHOTGUN Wed, 19 Oct 2011 23:47:35 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/9212-so-little-says-so-much-about-district-9-councilman#comment-23700 Seems like people support a candidate, that by his own admission and most observations has done nothing for his community, just because the paper that reports this is a lapdog of the mayor. Wow there's some tortured logic that goes into election statutes to vote no. How about an alternative plan? Suggestion for improvements? Anything but NO? - holeinthedonut8 Wed, 19 Oct 2011 13:38:42 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/9212-so-little-says-so-much-about-district-9-councilman#comment-23653 Ragin cajun, It has been brought to my attention, that there is a ground swell movement and it has broken ground, predicating you as the dark horse darling in the 2012 mayoral race. - NORTHSIDIAN SHOTGUN Wed, 19 Oct 2011 00:38:23 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/9212-so-little-says-so-much-about-district-9-councilman#comment-23641 I have known Walter for several years both professionally and personally. He is a man of integrity and honesty. Although I am not in his voting area I would recommend him to any and all in his area. You will be able to reach out to him when needed and he will listen. Really listen! - Lafayettenewswatcher Tue, 18 Oct 2011 17:24:19 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/9212-so-little-says-so-much-about-district-9-councilman#comment-23638 Yes Morrow, we want to use Iberia Parish as our guide for government. Its such a fine place that thousands of people are willing to drive 20 miles in heavy traffic just so they do not have to live there. Theriot ideologies would create a Mississippi style town with no culture, arts, or attractions. Great... we can all go to Wal-Mart on Saturdays and then eat at Wendy's. Its a Theriot Utopia. - Lafayette Tue, 18 Oct 2011 17:12:58 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/9212-so-little-says-so-much-about-district-9-councilman#comment-23624 In spite of the fact his district was chopped up to weaker his support, Theriot deserves to have another term if he wants it. I trust Theriot with my taxpayer money & find he's conservative. If he has more no votes than yes, it might be because the majority of the council is less fiscally conservative. I know Iberia parish govt isn't raising their budge, cut back to last year's & Laf parish could do the same if the council were so inclined. I'm comfortable with giving Theriot another term. - Morrow Tue, 18 Oct 2011 14:39:27 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/9212-so-little-says-so-much-about-district-9-councilman#comment-23622 Voting no for Theriot. He's like a bump on a log, only a bump on a log has more personality. - eiswright Tue, 18 Oct 2011 14:24:36 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/9212-so-little-says-so-much-about-district-9-councilman#comment-23613 To Tom Thib: A cursory investigation into your claim turns up nothing to substantiate it. We're uncomfortable posting what could be a defamatory accusation against a candidate. If you have supporting documents or links, please email them to me at walterp@theind.com. Thanks - Walter Pierce Tue, 18 Oct 2011 09:03:38 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/9212-so-little-says-so-much-about-district-9-councilman#comment-23609 "And ragin_cajun, in a few years you'll be able to participate, you won't have to watch the election results on your lap top, gee-whiz, you'll be able to participate. " What does that mean? I don't get it. - ragin_cajun Tue, 18 Oct 2011 07:59:20 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/9212-so-little-says-so-much-about-district-9-councilman#comment-23608 Theri"no" does not care about our fine city and is only interested in sticking to his ideologies, no matter the circumstances. Simple thinking does not work in a complicated world. Voting no for Theriot! - Lafayette Tue, 18 Oct 2011 07:46:12 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/9212-so-little-says-so-much-about-district-9-councilman#comment-23605 RC...my comprehension skills aren't lacking. I read and understood the article. I didn't know i had to have your approval on commenting. But if even voting on a budget, i'm SURE this was at least ONE thing he could agree on and vote 'yes'. Since I have to assume your a TheriNO backer, what about his accomplishments? - Southsider Tue, 18 Oct 2011 06:25:35 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/9212-so-little-says-so-much-about-district-9-councilman#comment-23600 Gobbley-Gook by Campbell : " I do believe that if the parish council wishes to review each and every contract upon renewal, then they should "......... Theriot would put it, I do believe that if the parish councilmen would get to read every contract PRIOR TO RENEWAL, we would not be, IN THIS SHITSTORM ! AMENNNNNNNN BROTHER ! - NORTHSIDIAN SHOTGUN Tue, 18 Oct 2011 01:08:59 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/9212-so-little-says-so-much-about-district-9-councilman#comment-23599 THESE are our choices????? Disappointing. No wonder Lafayette is stuck. Notice that neither one appears to have any concerns whatsoever about education in Lafayette Parish. I bet there's better representation hiding under a rock somewhere in Dist. 9......... - nolaf Tue, 18 Oct 2011 01:08:45 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/9212-so-little-says-so-much-about-district-9-councilman#comment-23597 To Bobby Boudoir, No one gave any power to Joey Do-Nuttin, Zooschlag and Fenstermaker bought the power for him in exchange for, Hmmmmm ? Oh, and we must not forget Doctor stewart . And ragin_cajun, in a few years you'll be able to participate, you won't have to watch the election results on your lap top, gee-whiz, you'll be able to participate. Theriot, has been cued and screwed: He is given a prepared list of questions ......and, the answers to the questions, politics is not a one-way street, its a reciprocal avenue. Theriot I should'nt have to tell YOU this : Here's the Skinny from Minnie : Because every Southsider and Sheltered Resident of River Ranch has neglected to cough up any redflex ticket money, " Northsiders are hereby granted the equal opportunity to negate ". Oh Hell, Tear The Mutha, Up ! - NORTHSIDIAN SHOTGUN Tue, 18 Oct 2011 00:56:57 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/9212-so-little-says-so-much-about-district-9-councilman#comment-23593 Southsider: Must like in the other recent IND post about Theriot where you commented, your comprehension skills are lacking. Theriot has not gone 3 years without a YES vote. He has gone 3 years without voting YES on the Operational Budget. He has voted YES on other ordinances where he has seen fit. Oh, and I too smell of politics by the Daily Advertiser. Something regarding journalistic integrity maybe?? - RCajunrunner Mon, 17 Oct 2011 19:55:31 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/9212-so-little-says-so-much-about-district-9-councilman#comment-23591 I was always kidding about calling Mr. Theriot 'TheriNO', but my god, not ONCE in three years a 'YES' vote? I guess the name fits. Hard to believe he couldn't find in his thinking just one time to vote yes. Nice accomplishments too...... I approved this message - Southsider Mon, 17 Oct 2011 18:21:36 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/9212-so-little-says-so-much-about-district-9-councilman#comment-23588 Theriot has my vote. Campbell doesn't know red flex is bad. Please people, he is telling you he doesn't care about Lafayette. Is he even from here? - barb Mon, 17 Oct 2011 17:22:21 +0100
