Because Ben is a koNOP is a total hypocrite

Konop supports property taxes for failed businesses like COSI when he himself pays NO property taxes on his condo. He claims to be fighting against the "good ol' boys network" when he himself is a product of the "good ol' boys network" with his aunt being former County Commissioner, his work in Washington for Marcy Kaptur, his ties to The Blade, and his network of entrenched support money. Even his "good ol' boys network" campaign mantra is a ripoff of The Blade's "old boys network" they complain about. The Blade sued WSPD radio for copyright infringement for readingBlade stories on the air and not giving proper attribution. Why won't they sue Ben for the phrase? Because Ben does everything Blade publisher John Robinson Block tells him to do. If you want to know Ben's position on an issue, just read The Blade's articles and pages of opinion. He marches lock-step with them 100% of tthe time. Ben Konop makes opponents sign a "clean campaign pledge" (drawn up by, hmmm, there's that name again, THE BLADE) and violates the pledge every campaign with no criticism from that newspaper. Hell, he breaks the campaign pledge of serving his entire term if elected commissioner and not running for other offices, and The Blade gives him a free pass on that! Ben Konop then tries to make political hay from a family losing their home and belongings in a house fire by blaming the former fire chief who retired 2 years ago! BOO BEN KONOP BOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
