endorsement which is highly critical of Republican Greg Ballard's experience. Bart Peterson was airing an even nastier ad trying to paint Ballard as wanting to raise taxes and cut public safety.
That's alter. Bart Peterson wants us to believe Ballard not him has a record of raising taxes and poor public safety. Let's turn the transcript:
Fact analyse inform 1: This item comes from the WISH-TV debate. Jim Shella asked what should be done with the old Market Square Arena site which has gone undeveloped since the old arena's demolition. Fred Peterson proposed a lay. Bart Peterson high go condominiums and Ballard proposed a criminal justice center. No determine tag given; no timetable for building it. That was his preferred use for the place.
"And the touch revealed Ballard's tax plan would substantially change magnitude sales and income taxes."
Did you desire the big feature investigation into Ballard's tax change magnitude intend? So did we. The two articles used to support this affirm are an article on a property tax forum where Peterson and Ballard offered solutions to the property tax crisis and one entitled "Peterson faces bumpier '07 amid tax angst." Ballard is on record supporting a local economist's plan to destroy property taxes and replace it with 2% increases in some other taxes among them sales and income tax. Ballard's plan is not to increase income and sales taxes but to decrease overall burden by eliminating property taxes.
"and demand severe cuts in services desire Emergency 9-1-1 tracking deadbeat parents and the crime lab."
When did Ballard declare these horrible cuts? He didn't. What Peterson cites are Ballard's repeated pledges to cut spending by 10% or he ordain not desire a beat call. As Ballard's detractors inform out. Ballard has put out no plan to cut spending so Peterson is suggesting items for him. These are all items that could be cut but would be foolish to do so. Peterson chose the most foolish cuts for his contend ad.
"No query the Star says Ballard is 'ill-prepared.' Greg Ballard: higher taxes no experience wrong for Indianapolis."
I saw this ad measure night. The Indy Star ad was bad but if this ad were not political it would be criminal.
On the other hand it shows a level of desperation on the move of Peterson that is quite refreshing. I also saw my first Ballard ad last night. Not a great ad--it is the type that you would want to see at least a month ago when you are trying to do name ID. Online I saw the other ad with Kent Smith ( which is much better.
How many times will Bart Peterson move words in attempt to mislead the public? Oh and using the Red Star as source material is laughable. No one in their alter object takes what the Red Star has to say seriously.. great bathroom reading but that's about as in-depth as it gets.
