He makes it sound as he was personally responsible for implementing the property tax caps. What a phony.

He's trying to use his work record as a point of reference. He hasn't worked in ~8 years! And, today, he was talking about how the last company he 'managed' went into bankruptcy.

kind of funny as this is very old news. hell 4 years ago i was a part of a complant against him for votng in hammond when in my opinion he lived in sherrillville. ironically i lost 3-2 because the proxy voter for premeske saving his ass!

speaking of jim i was thinking. the closest hell ever get to the mayors office, is if he wins the middle school mayor for a day essay contest. after all. if a republican from shererville can run for the democratic nomiation for mayor of hammond. why cant a senior citizen win a school kids essay contest?

The other thing that struck me as odd was when he mentioned that he went back on active duty in the Navy in the middle of whatever his career was. To me that was code for he couldn't get a decent job in the private sector.

What's with premeske signs popping up on vacant industrial lots throughout north hammond?

Don't worry...it is just a sign of a sign of "being hard up".

I never in my life voted for a sign at vacant lots, boarded up buildings...vacant locations, period.

The message to me was, a sign without a business, is a "sign of NO business".
...you can reverse it.

A business without a sign is a sign of no business.

If you stick the sign where it doesn't belong...you don't belong; you're HARD-UP.

Who is Premeske talking to? Vacant lots or those who vote?


There ya go.....people aren't stupid anymore.

Is Janiec the Maniac going to run as a third party candidate for mayor? Georgey Porgey could come in third in a two person race.

Trust my gut..Janiec isn't gonna win hardly near 500 votes.

He's wasting his time.

He doesn't care about his position on the school board...why the hell would he care anymore about Hammond? I can only remember him chastising FTime for not going out and walking her talk like he did.

So...different strokes for different folks, but what are his qualifications? Just looking at his pix, he doesn't strike me as being empathetic nor qualified for the position. Sorry to say, non of the candidates possess the background. Only I see McDermott this time, not taking for granted and listening..and will start showing transparency, post the expenses, and perhaps cutting back on foolish expenditures.

His administration has always been there, no matter if you call or walk in, and available for advice. That's good for me.

Janiec along with the other candidates, just seem to want a career without the education, background, wanting perks added to disability, without the qualifications.

If anything...people will just vote for an a-hole to get back for FT.

He'd be better off joining "Equip for Equality" being an advocate for the disabled, but then again..you need the degree in hand.

I wouldn't be surprised at all. I just can't can't see him fading away like a loyal party member would.

Ditto....and since he has no money, he is getting subsidized, because this race has so many people that lack the education, the expertise, the experience...they are wasting their time and money.

I did say signs meant shitz, but this is one rare occasion where I asked for a McDermott sign and I fully back Janet V. She always backed me, had my back, and took care of whatever, accommodating the fact I can't simply pick up a phone and trust my ears when things don't look right in the neighborhood.

True,but he's helping McDermott.

The school board was supposed to be his stepping stone until it backfired.

He's good at whining about the Mayor

The transparency issue is nothing more than a smokescreen. McDermott with his radio show,"Mayor's Night" Out",and other events is one of the most accessible Mayors I've seen.

True...never got but clown shows on cable when the "Shaw's" took over. in Dolton back in the day. I honestly believed those two could have made a duo on SNL.

I had a blast with them two...at the casino. Asked them if they had twelve check-books like Peck the guy who hired a woman to accompany him to wild political appearances to cover up the fact he was gay and dying.

Sometimes ya gotta laugh.

He's gone rogue and we have ourselves a full fledged soap opera ......

Janiec to appeals court: Count me in or election doesn't count

HAMMOND | Lawyers for Republican George Janiec are asking the Indiana Court of Appeals to cancel and rerun the May 3 Hammond mayoral primary if Janiec isn't part of it.

They made the request this week in a 38-page legal brief seeking to overturn last month's decision by the county elections board to remove Janiec as a mayoral candidate and Lake Superior Court Judge Jesse Villalpando's refusal to restore Janiec's candidacy.

The appellate court hasn't set a date to hear the matter.

Janiec is asking the appeals court to rule on his status as a candidate before Wednesday. If it cannot act that quickly, attorneys R. Cordell Funk, of Schererville, and William Fine, of Highland, will request a May 3 election without him void.

"If this court cannot rule before April 27, 2011, then in addition, Janiec requests that the court void the Republican and Democratic primary results for the position of Mayor of the City of Hammond and order the elections board to promptly rehold that primary as far in advance of the November 2011 general election as possible," the attorneys wrote.

"If this court cannot rule before April 27, 2011, then in addition, Janiec requests that the court void the Republican and Democratic primary results for the position of Mayor of the City of Hammond and order the elections board to promptly rehold that primary as far in advance of the November 2011 general election as possible," the attorneys wrote.

rotflmao....he wants the court to rule to rehold an election? first of all...why redo the dem primary when he never tried to be a candidate in that race?

second. even if his arguement were true...which a board...a judge...and commen sense say it isnt...but even if it were...all the candidates who spent money...time campaigning...voters who spent time voting...should all be disinfranchised so that he could get his opportunity to publically humiliate himself and force a second republican primary? not to mention the tax payers that would all have to fund another election whether the vote or not.

hell im all for that last part...lets redo the repub primary in say june..so all the repubs can show there outrage at janiec and poland...hell reopen filing cuz i know a few that would love a piece of poland in the fourth after recent events that have transpired!

even better...three years from now when the supremes actually take the time to read his brief...lets redo the elections then.

the thought of such is so rediculously implausible it could only have come from a nut like george.

Creacher was questioning Poland on why the republicans in hammond haven't picked a mayoral candidate to back. He said Poland told him its 'not allowed for her to slate a candidate.' He did question why the dems did but they could not. I saw an opportunity to highlight what A Big Mess (ABM) the repubs are with janiecs stalking and the two kims mismanagement. As soon as I called the creach went directly to commercial break and ended that thought.

Oracle, all VERY good, common sense points. Maybe janiec should have avoided unsuccessful republican lawyers and talked to some experienced politicians for advise this year...

I blame Kim Poland for not keeping Janiec off the ballot. She is the chairman of the republican party. Isn't Janiec in trouble for that gun issue in Highland? Did Janiecs wife leave him?

Are they going to do anything to Janiec about the stalking with a gun ? He shouldn't be allowed to carry a gun any longer.

More foolishness.........

Team Hammond/ Janiec craziness Tuesday night
Pastore reports:

Elizabitch Kurella walked outside as I was planting a yard sign, and told me that several people told her that I had threatened them and that she was told to not let me inside or she was to call the popos and have me arrested for trespassing. I asked who I threatened and what did I say. She replied that I was threatening her. I then asked her if Kim Poland had told her to ban me, she didn't answer. Diane and Rosie were already inside distributing my literature to the 12 people in the audience.

I told Premeske what was going on. He tried to make them let me in, but they wouldn't budge. Hero came, and then he, myself, and the 2 ladies went to the NAACP candidate forum and I spoke to about 60 people there, including former Sheriff Dominguez, who will help me if I win on Tuesday.

I don't know what's funnier.....Royboy promising to back Pastore or the overflow crowd of 12 people at the Team Scammin meeting :rolfcry:

a pastore/dominguez alliance? uh oh were in trouble now! but will roy do if both oscar and pastore win? or has he already decided pastore has a better chance in the repub side then oscar has on the dem side? not a good sign when your chief backer jumps ship 6 days before the election is it.

I am not suprised to hear that Roy went to the republican side. His association with Pastore has been discussed.

Someone posting as Rob Pastore had the following to say about Mr Janiec.....

Quote :

Hammond's Republican nominee for mayor in November is a loose cannon on deck with a verifiable history of, according to court filings, hitting his first exwife on numerous occasions,( including beating her with a steel-toed work shoe when she was pregnant), not paying his child support, threatening a dentist who was trying to get paid for providing care to his daughter, found in contempt of court as recently as November of 2010 for not abiding by the court-ordered property settlement in his second divorce, and slapped with an order of protection by Judge McDeavitt in Lake County Circuit Court for stalking and intimidation that was in force for siX months, after which time I felt Janiec had got the message because he stopped stalking and intimidating myself and my supporters, and my attorney requested the order be dismissed in order to also save me from incurring another $8,000 in legal fees to continue the case.

Robby "Pissed Off Loser" Pastore,

Your a joke, your a wannabe,you think your great but in reality you are nothing more than a lunatic pontificating blow hard.

Your resume for office is one limo and no brains.

Get a clue, you've lost two elections because people know you nuttier than a fruitcake and not because of Krull/Slayman or Janiec.

But then again, you think your a superhero...In reality you need a shrink!

Should I suggest one?

Wow, a steel toed shoe? How many votes did pastore lose by? Janiec won the tallest midget contest and should not be that proud.

Republican candidates not united behind Janiec

HAMMOND | More than 70 percent of Republican voters in the May 3 mayoral primary voted for candidates other than victor George Janiec, and his three closest competitors aren't yet supporting his candidacy in November.

Republican voters split among four candidates who earned more than 90 percent of the vote, and it doesn't appear the party is close to unifying behind Janiec's candidacy. Janiec earned 28 percent of the 1,300 ballots cast.

Matt Saliga, who finished second to Janiec in 2007 and again this year, said he hasn't heard from Janiec since the election. Janiec's next two closest competitors -- Robert Pastore and David Hacker -- both said they won't support Janiec.

Janiec said the lack of endorsements from former opponents won't prevent their supporters from backing him in November.

"The candidates themselves are one individual. They may throw their support into the race, but it's still only one person. It's the people in back -- can (candidates) vouch for people in back and control their vote? I don't know," he said.

Janiec also said he may have lost votes because the legality of his candidacy lingered for weeks after the Lake County elections board booted him from the ballot, saying his nonpartisan position on the Hammond School Board prevented a partisan mayoral run. The Indiana Supreme Court overturned the board's decision 12 days before the primary.

Janiec will again face Mayor Thomas McDermott Jr., who drew almost 7,900 votes in his landslide victory in May. Janiec lost to McDermott in the 2007 general election by fewer than 500 votes.

McDermott attributed his landslide primary victory to his own unprecedented effort, spurred by his embarrassingly close victory over Janiec in 2007.

McDermott's campaign spent more than $100,000 on the race to staff a headquarters, feed volunteers and track Democratic voters. He still has cash on hand and months to continue fundraising.

"The numbers don't look good. McDermott really worked to get out the vote this time. I think in the last general election, 10,000 votes were cast and he got 5,000-something," Saliga said.

"This time he got 8,000 in a primary. George isn't going to get anywhere near those numbers. And I don't know who can."

Janiec said he's hoping a 33 percent boost in Republican voter turnout will lead to more participation in the general election.

He said Republicans "mysteriously grew" to number almost 5,000 in 2007 after fewer than 1,000 turned out after that primary.

"I had a week and a half to campaign ... and still won the primary," he said. "What kind of conclusion can you draw from that?"

You amassed a grand total of 369 votes,almost 2 out of every 3 Republican voters voted against you,and you just squeaked by a grand total of 51 votes. :titanic: :dyno:

What does Janiec stand for ??
