Wow, never saw this vid. Heard the kdka radio call-ins, but not this.

Do you have the gas issue footrace? Would be great to pair the two videos.

This is all I can find on the foot race - Run Jimmy Run!

By the way, is it true this guy wears a Rolex watch and drives a Lexus? Hard to imagine someone on a city councilman's salary being able to afford both a Rolex and a Lexus.

".......I was gonna say is that Jimmy Motznik....wearing a Rolex???"

Not sure I could stomach a monthly viewing of that video, but maybe it should be viewed daily by Council members until they've voted for Council President?

Should any of them vote for Motznik, they should be condemned to watch it daily for the remainder of their terms.

If you have a little bit of energy to offer, dig a little on alcosan's recent awarding of over 40 million to consultants. guess who is on the selection committee and being wined and dined by those consultants...

I agree with the person who said:

"Should any of them vote for Motznik, they should be condemned to watch it daily for the remainder of their terms."

ANY council person that votes for this guy should be just down right ashamed of themselves because it would take a really slimy deal to get them to vote for such a really slimy guy.

And to Council woman Harris and Council woman Payne, you were elected to be our voices. If you do ANY of your homework and check out the record of this guy you have no excuse to vote for him.

Too bad they didn't show the rest of the video and see him running from for camera man for getting caught stealing tax dollars for his personal transportation.

What a complete, frustrating disgusting thought that any of you would consider voting for this guy for ANYTHING least the President of council.

Really people, we count on you. Show some integrity here or we shall lose all possible faith in the system what so ever.

I am beginning to wonder, this is such a no-brainer. Is it even worth a discussion at all. I am truly insulted that you think we voters don't give a damn and just think we're not watching to see who dows what.

anon - I could not find anything on Alcosan - could you please post a link?

To All:

I've looked far and wide for a video of the Motznik foot chase event. WTAE has the story (and supposedly the video) in their archives:

http://www.thepittsburghchannel.com/news/3291852/detail.html

But if you'll notice, the video link is no longer active.

So ..... if anyone can find it anywhere, PLEASE post it here, post it somewhere. That little gem needs to be preserved!

Okay, the tail end of the web address for the Motznik story keeps getting cut off. Don't know why. Lets see if Blogger will accept it this way. The first part of the address is:

http://www.thepittsburghchannel.com/

And the last part is:

news/3291852/detail.html

Lets see if this gets chopped.

can't get it. Luke must have sent his goon squad over to rip it out. See folks how twisted our democracy gets when you keep putting people with no integrity into positions of power. I hope some of the new council members are reading these posts. Anon above said it perfect.

To those of you newly elected council members, remember we are watching. Dowd you had better know who you are dealing with and to the council women there, you better watch who you support. I doubt that if either of you cast a vote for Motznick you will ever return to your council seats again.

Women vote, that is for sure and to vote against Shields after all he has done for women and womens rights to support someone like Motznick is a slap in the face. You had better watch your backs, no matter what they promise they are a bunch of ungrateful lying idiots.

Look at Luke, who nominated him for the presidency in the first place. And what does he do in return? He's no party supporter, he's a kid who was never taught to do the right thing. Especially "tho shalt not lie" He is for himself, not for the people of this city and if anyone thinks different then prove it.
