Do they know how much of a drain on society she is?
ReplyDeleteGag!
ReplyDeleteWTF?!?! That would be like appointing a career felon as a supreme court justice because he's really good at breaking the law!
ReplyDeleteThis country is really going down the toilet with the idiots in charge!
God help us all!
ReplyDeleteJoe,
ReplyDeleteIs there a bio available on this woman? I'd be very interested in her qualifications to steer federal policy positions. Maybe you can do a story on her or direct me to piece that tells us about her?
not surprised she's an expert in general financial assistance programs
ReplyDeleteAre they aware that she's on Public Assistance, and isn't that a direct conflict of interest and highly unethical? Oh, wait, I forgot. She doesn't have any...
ReplyDeleteFull speed ahead!
ReplyDeleteDamn the torpedos!
We have nothing to fear!
We have Laura to steer!
I just threw up a little bit in my mouth.
ReplyDeleteDear Mother of God,
ReplyDeleteI just went to the NLC website and she's the only member listed from the great state of MD????
She should be stripped of ALL government entitlements! How is she raping the taxpayers, and getting away with it? WTF.
ReplyDeleteIf she is this capable of holding responsible positions and traveling to meet voluntary obligations, she must be employable.
ReplyDeleteThis is the woman who couldn't handle the books for the Democratic Club?
ReplyDeleteProbably all she had to do to get "appointed" was to volunteer.
Political social climber, this one, but she gets plenty of press, even here, so she knows how to play the game.
It appears she has found another river to bottom feed from. Wicomico county are you paying attention?
ReplyDeleteOMG, do these people know what they have done appointing her? 9:01AM said it perfectly.
ReplyDeleteIf you don't like her politics, you should run against her in the next election, Joe.
ReplyDeleteGive us an address to write to to complain about her Section 8, food stamp etc and any other dirt and we will be happy to report this.
ReplyDeleteThe ranks of our political officials are littered with hypocrits, ego maniacs, and liars. The only qualification Mitchell has is her lust for power and position. She has no credability or competence. She is a professional leach living off governement programs. This is the new blueprint of government officals i.e. O'bama, O'Malley
ReplyDeleteThis woman is taking a beating on Salisbury News. You've been blogged, BIOTCH!
ReplyDeleteThe more we bitch about this welfare foodstamp anti social draing the city fool the more the dummocrats give her More to do.
ReplyDelete"National League of Cities (NLC) 2014 Finance, Administration & Intergovernmental Relations Steering Committee"
ReplyDeleteFinance? She knows all about finance. She is slopping at the government trough and has been for many years. Now her rapist husband is doing the same thing.
The only thing this white trash knows about civil rights is that she married a black man.
What does she know about Native American Sovereignty? Absolutely nothing! I feel sorry for the real native Americans. For you dummies who think you are a Native American, you are wrong. Native Americans are the Indians your ancestors stole their land from.

HUH??
She has no ethics, truth or leadership responsibilities and is a thief for all she has bilked the tax payers out of. Can the people who appointed her have at least checked her out. She is a looser and we are the biggest loosers for having voted her ever in office--told you all so a long time ago!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeletePerhaps someone could prepare a handout of her photo, background and "qualifications" and see that they get passed out at the meeting?
ReplyDeleteShe can't managed her own finances, like seriously how stupid are people. Let's give someone a position like this who can barely sustain themselves. This is freaking ridiculous, and is the prime example of what is horribly wrong with this "Once" great Nation.
ReplyDeleteTypical BS from the present administration
