It really sucks UPDATED 092617

It really sucks that someone like Bob Fischer is running against someone whose hearing for public drunkenness and similar misconduct is two days after the election.

It really sucks that Bob Fischer's next door neighbor is not Blaise Larotonda.

It really sucks that Bob Fischer does not have the local magistrate on his campaign committee.

It really sucks that Bob Fischer has been

  • a life long resident of Mt. Lebanon
  • a 2016 honoree for Mt. Lebanon's inaugural Volunteer Service Award
  • 1995 "This Town Would Be Different Without..." honoree
  • Chairman of the Mt. Lebanon Public Safety Building campaign, raising $1.2 million
  • Mt. Lebanon Volunteer Firefighter for 15 years, volunteering thousands of of hours per year
  • Past President of Mt. Lebanon Volunteer Fire Department
  • Past President of Dormont/Mt. Lebanon/Castle Shannon Rotary
  • Past member of the Mt. Lebanon Zoning Hearing Board
  • An active member of his church for 45 years
and has to run against someone whose hearing will be two days after the election.

It really sucks if Ward 4 residents don't vote for Bob Fischer on November 7, two days before his opponent's hearing.

Update September 26, 2017 6:23 PM Another one from a Democrat. I get the feeling that there are some Dems who don't like Craig. I don't know why I think that.

To paraphrase the 4th Ward Democratic candidate for commissioner.

“We have an embarrassment of riches in Republican candidate Bob Fischer!

Go Bob!

I’m not sure that Blaise is allowed to be on a campaign committee.

Again, I wouldn't put much stock into the date change of the hearing. It's not even clear from the docket sheet that today's hearing was continued. Something may have gone on today in Gorilla's case. Barton may have just added a second date to finish it. What is clear is that Gorilla has not managed to have his public drunkenness charge dismissed or reduced. The charges stand and the case is active. Not a good day for Gorilla.

IMO, Bob Fischer is the lucky one. He doesn't have crazy Blaise campaigning for him. If Blaise offered to campaign for me I'd say "No thanks."

Wait a second. I just looked at Gorilla's updated docket sheet. It appears that the event scheduled for early November is different from today's scheduled event. Maybe apples and oranges.

What is Bob Fischer's position on the deer killing programs in Mt. Lebanon?

11:00 PM, I haven't asked about Bob Fischer's position on the deer killing programs recently, but when I did, he thought it was a waste of money. I hope his position has not changed.
