The Summers and FitzGerald Fake Newspaper Folly In a Nutshell

[marklingm]

There are so many threads on the attempt of Team Summers to fool us into voting for Mike Summers with Ed FitzGerald's fake newspaper, I thought that, perhaps, we should have all of the threads in one place.

So, here is the current list as far as I can tell:

The comments on these stories are really telling. It's clear that people were smart enough to discern that these were NOT newspapers, they were POLITICAL PROPAGANDA.

The people behind this, primarily Ed Fitzgerald, thought people would be too stupid to realize that it was phony. The ARROGANCE AND INEPTITUDE of Fitzgerald, the Sarah Palin of local politics, is all over this debacle. It's what he and his cronies think of YOU and all the little taxpayers.

Tell Fitz to take a gander at some of the comments on the NEOMG article. He'll find history will not be too kind to him - the level of disgust with his act is strong and pervasive. He has NO political future on his own - his only outlet is exactly what you see here - pulling strings.

A vote for Summers is a vote for Fitzgerald. It would be a disaster for Lakewood.

From a business owner on Madison...

Some women who works for the city asked if she could drop off Observers in my business.
Then I saw it was the fake newspaper she was distributing. I asked her who wrote it or published it. She didn't know but insisted it was real.
Don't know who she was but said she recognized me from ARB meetings. So maybe she doesn't work for the city.
She said observer though.

He has two witnesses to the BS, story soon to follow.

Mike Summers just don't get it--- Ed Fitzgerald did a nasty hit on him

Ed?, Mike did it to himself, political suicide.

Check made to Friends of Summers, not Friends of FitzGerald.

Of course that would be very suspect!

Was the woman distributing the paper a little blond with an Irish brogue?

Let's recall what the Plain Dealer said about Fitzgerald:

his campaign's greatest obstacle was great concentrations of his own hubris and character flaws.

FitzGerald is the Cuyahoga County reformer who needs to reform himself. Until that happens, the job he's most qualified for is Fraud Expert.

FRAUD EXPERT. Because Fitzgerald is a FRAUD and anything connected to him is doomed to fail.

SUMMERS=FITZGERALD

VOte for Summers and you're getting Fitzgerald all over again. Dishonesty, hubris, LIES, and FRAUD. A real LOSER.
