CHANGE YOUR VOTE
CHANGE THE COUNTY
You'll also learn why progressive Democrats who learn about County Councilman Hans Riemer's un-progressive policy positions and fat cat Wall Street campaign donors will be switching one of their votes to me, Robert Dyer, in the Montgomery County Council At-Large race.
Please don't build roads through our parks, Rob.
ReplyDeleteWell, those are certainly ... words
ReplyDeleteWhere's the energy...the excitement...the passion...the strength of confidence?
8:48am that's what the local media says about every Reamer press event.
DeleteI think this county needs change. Electing Robert gives us an inside scoop on what is happening at council meetings and he will always be outvoted. It is a win-win for us, so elect Robert Dyer!
ReplyDelete10:20 AM - Really? You read the old legacy print media? And where did they say that?
ReplyDeleteAs a true objective news source, can you provide videos and info on the other candidates also so we can compare? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteat 44 seconds, they labeled you as democrat.
ReplyDeleteHow can Bob the Builder get elected with his monotone responses and canned answers?
ReplyDeleteHe sounds like a total hick - straight out of Hootin Holler.
ReplyDeleteLike a low-energy version of Floyd R. Turbo.
1:46: Have you ever heard the current Councilmembers speak? Having a voice like Shadoe Stevens is clearly not a prerequisite for the job. I don't have a monotone voice, and if you want "canned answers," check out Hans Riemer, who has to have his public speaking written for him by staff so he can read it off a card.
ReplyDeleteNo cards here, no teleprompters. I'm clearly more articulate and prepared than Riemer.
"Why haven't we widened I-270"
ReplyDeleteIt's been widened twice - it's three times its original width.
2:00: Everything is apparently the opposite in your world. Hans Riemer is super low energy. He's so low energy, when he gives a fireside chat, the fire goes out.
ReplyDeleteI'm high energy, which is how I've gotten more done since 2010 as a civilian than Riemer has on the Council.
2:02: That was eons ago, dumbass. Commuters have been talking about widening it again for almost as long. Where have you been?
ReplyDeleteIf elected to the Council, do you plan to use names such as “dumbass” to address constituents with whom you disagree, as you currently do with your readers?
ReplyDeleteNo matter. Promising to obliterate congestion by widening 270 is the boondoggle to end all boondoggles:
Md.'s Lesson: Widen the Roads, Drivers Will Come
By Alan Sipress
Washington Post Staff Writer
Monday, January 4, 1999; Page B1
Congestion on Interstate 270 had grown so oppressive by the mid-1980s that Montgomery County transportation director Robert S. McGarry pressed the state to widen it six years ahead of schedule. Maryland responded with $200 million to widen more than a dozen miles, up to 12 lanes in some stretches.
But now, less than eight years after the project was finished, the highway has again been reduced to what one official called "a rolling parking lot." Traffic on some segments already has exceeded the levels projected for 2010.
"I personally thought it would last much longer than this," said McGarry, who left county government eight years ago. "I just didn't in my wildest dreams think it would fill up that fast."
National transportation analysts say it's no surprise: Widened highways generate their own traffic.
Robert Dyer, 2006:
ReplyDeleteWhat specific transportation projects do you see as priorities for the state?
Robert Dyer: "Inner Purple Line, Corridor Cities Railway, GBBI, expansion of MARC rail service, and rail service connecting Washington to Ocean City."
Does the state need stricter controls to protect the environment?
RD: "Definitely."
Do you favor widening the Beltway? Do you favor toll lanes? How would you pay for them and how would implement them into the system?
I absolutely oppose widening the Beltway, especially when it threatens homes in my District. I oppose toll lanes and toll roads, as they penalize low-income drivers.
Do you favor building the Purple Line? What kind of transportation do you favor? How would you pay for it and how would you reconcile the effects as it cuts through dense established neighborhoods?
RD: "Yes, the Purple Line is my top transportation priority. I favor rail transit, and innovative bus initiatives. I will pay for those through local, state, and Federal funds; dedicating a portion of the existing sales tax for them; and by aiming for profitability by building projects to meet an existing demand. Let’s face it, if we let the NIMBYs keep control, we’ll never end gridlock. The Purple Line was a CSX route in the past, and was meant to become a commuter rail line 20 years ago. The Purple Line trains are silent and emission-free, so there are no effects."
"I'm high energy, which is how I've gotten more done since 2010 as a civilian than Riemer has on the Council."
ReplyDeleteSuch as?
And why can't you win any elections, with all that "energy"?
5:16: A combination of a media blackout on my campaigns, and voter fraud, as evidenced by the high number of deceased and moved voters who remain on the active voter rolls in MoCo, and suspicious results at certain precincts around the County. Judicial Watch exposed that there are more names registered to vote in MoCo than actual eligible voters in the County. Now we know where those huge victory margins for my opponents come from.
ReplyDeleteLikewise, those Post ed board endorsements - I hope they'll make fair endorsements this year, so I won't have to write an expose on their endorsement and editorial process over the last decade after the election. People will find that information very enlightening.
3:03: You're a troll, not a "reader."
ReplyDeleteThat article on widening 270 is total ideological baloney. I-270 remains congested not because it was widened, but because the County approved 800% growth in Clarksburg, massively overdeveloped Germantown, and tripled the population of Damascus, without providing the highway capacity to support it. They never built the two planned escape valves for 270, which are the Outer Beltway/new Potomac River crossing, and the M-83 Highway.
There is no verifiable case of "induced demand" on any highway in the D.C. area, just a failure to complete the D.C. freeway system.
I agree - the growth should not have been in Clarksburg, Germantown and Damascus. Instead western Bethesda and Potomac should have been much more densely developed than they are now.
ReplyDelete"Likewise, those Post ed board endorsements - I hope they'll make fair endorsements this year, so I won't have to write an expose on their endorsement and editorial process over the last decade after the election."
ReplyDeleteYou've had 12 years to write that. Why haven't you? Is it because of your low energy level?
8:37: Western Bethesda and Potomac are already fully-developed.
ReplyDelete8:39: Nope, it's because I want to give them a chance to have a fair endorsement process this year. I'm running on most of the priorities the Post expressed in their Blair endorsement. Riemer has a record of failure on all of those points. A fair endorsement would go to me over Riemer.
"Western Bethesda and Potomac are already fully-developed."
ReplyDeleteLol, that's why there are currently no construction projects or new projects in the pipeline in that area, right?
And the old "if I don't win it's because of voter fraud" trope. Shame on you and other Republicans for propagating that myth without evidence. They can't get more people to vote for them due to their 19th Century views, so they have to undermine confidence in the voting process by spreading these types of conspiracy theories and passing laws to try to get fewer people to vote. Shame on all of you.
Looking forward to the debates.
ReplyDeleteNo anonymous name calling, just debating Reimer's record and the issues facing the county.
"A combination of a media blackout on my campaigns, and voter fraud, as evidenced by the high number of deceased and moved voters who remain on the active voter rolls in MoCo, and suspicious results at certain precincts around the County. Judicial Watch exposed that there are more names registered to vote in MoCo than actual eligible voters in the County."
ReplyDeleteI'm confused - are you saying that there are ineligible voters casting ballots, or that the BOE is not very good at removing individuals from the rolls? If the former, it obviously needs to be stamped out right away - since you keep saying this I'm presuming that you have some evidence, and should bring it to the State's attorney and the media right away to preserve some semblance of our democracy.
Of course if you don't have such evidence, and its only the later it doesn't really explain how Hans (and everyone else) has wiped the floor with you every time you've ran.
Or how you've raised zero dollars this cycle.
Why not just buy an ad in The Post?
ReplyDelete4:43: All they're doing is knocking down buildings in a fully-developed area. There's no greenfield development going on in Bethesda or Potomac.
ReplyDeleteShame on you for trying to cover up voter fraud. Donald Trump was elected in 2016, and Larry Hogan in 2014. What's that about not being able to get people to vote for Republicans? LOL
Fact: There are more names registered to vote in MoCo than there are eligible voters.
9:50: Judicial Watch threatened Maryland with a lawsuit for not cleaning up the dirty MoCo voter rolls. It's easy to "wipe the floor" when you have thousands of illegal votes, and the cemetery precincts come in strong for Riemer.
I've raised more than zero dollars this cycle, chump.
Do you think that Greenfield development is the only way to increase density?
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you brought up Trump to support your example of how Republicans can't get more people to vote for them. His opponent received 3 million more votes than he did. Do you know that in the past 25 years, only ONCE has the Republican presidential candidate has received more votes than the Democrat?
ReplyDeleteAnd of course to Trump's senile mind, someone who operates completely on gut-based presumptions rather than fact-based, the only reason why more people voted for the other was because of fraud. Of course it has nothing to do with the fact that he's a racist sexual predator con man with the vocabulary and emotional intelligence of a middle-schooler.
Yes, there can be more voters on the rolls than there are residents. People die and move away. Is there ANY evidence that these people voted?
"Do you know that in the past 25 years, only ONCE has the Republican presidential candidate has received more votes than the Democrat?"
ReplyDeleteActually 30 years. :)
And when you look at the votes for Congress, nationally, in agregate, Democratic voters are in the majority.
ReplyDelete9:02: And when they die and move away, their names are supposed to be removed from the voter rolls. Montgomery County has left them on to be used by illegal voters. Did Russia help Hans Riemer win in the primary? According to the Washington Post, it's possible.
ReplyDeleteDyer @ 10:15 - Why not just admit that the reason no one votes for you, is because you're a miserable failure?
ReplyDelete11:30: Why admit something that isn't true? Now look at the truth of voter fraud, as described by the Democratic Election Commissioner of New York City:
ReplyDeletehttps://youtu.be/jUDTcxIqqM0
James O'Keefe - the only "journalist" faker than Robert Dyer.
ReplyDeletehttps://www.snopes.com/news/2016/10/18/project-veritas-election-videos/
Dyer claimed: "Did Russia help Hans Riemer win in the primary? According to the Washington Post, it's possible."
ReplyDeleteThis really needs a citation as to its source. It is on its face a ridiculous claim to make, and not one I can find in searching the Post site on "Riemer AND (russia or Russian)"
6:36: What part of the actual videotaped statements by the Election Commissioner were "fake?" Notice the guy just vanished into the night after retiring, and no public investigation of his evidence of voter fraud was ever conducted?
ReplyDeleteNotice that Snopes.com actually had to lie in its report - lie in a fact-checking report! LOL - to cover up what that the Election Commissioner openly stated that massive voter fraud is taking place in New York.
3:00: You missed the report in the Post that Maryland's voting machines are controlled by a Russian oligarch since 2015.
"You missed the report in the Post that Maryland's voting machines are controlled by a Russian oligarch since 2015."
ReplyDeleteWell, I guess I must have. Can you link to it, or even better, quote directly from it?
9:25: Here's a link to WTOP's report:
ReplyDeletehttps://wtop.com/maryland/2018/07/officials-russian-firm-used-in-maryland-election-systems/
"In a statement, the state elections board said the FBI told officials that ByteGrid is financed by AltPoint Capital Partners, whose fund manager is a Russian, and its largest investor is a Russian oligarch named Vladimir Potanin. The board said that in response, it has been working with various federal and state officials to ensure that voter data and the state’s election systems are secure.
Busch described the leading investor as being “very close to the Russian prime minister, Vladimir Putin.”"
ReplyDeleteAlways an excuse.
Truth: You didn't appeal to enough voters to get their vote. No zombies, no massive fraud, no concerted effort of "people working against you."
My goodness, what happened to you in life to give you this crazy persecution complex?
The Post article on election software systems ties to Russian oligarchs is here: https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/md-politics/marylands-election-system-tied-to-russian-oligarch-fbi-tells-state/2018/07/13/89b8ce56-86fa-11e8-8f6c-46cb43e3f306_story.
ReplyDeleteNeither the WTOP report nor the Post article make any statement, suggestion or even hint that Hans Riemer's election results were effected by this software ownership. This notion of Russian interference to support Hans Riemeer by Dyer joins "Cemetery Precincts" and massive numbers of illegal aliens committing voter fraud in the ridiculous litany of Dyer's to explain his lack of electoral success.
Dyer also writes: "You missed the report in the Post that Maryland's voting machines are controlled by a Russian oligarch since 2015."
If you read the WTOP and Post reports, it is clear that the software under question is not used by Maryland voting machines. Rather plays supporting service roles in online voter registration.
And that the FBI found no evidence of criminal acts or security breaches.
9:18: It's quite clear that this Russian involvement with Maryland elections is being raised now so that it can be used if Larry Hogan or Robin Ficker win in November, just as was done with Trump. An insurance policy, so to speak. The problem is, when you put a tool on the table like Russian interference, it can be cited for the victories of any candidate, including Hans Riemer.
ReplyDeleteIllegal voting is already happening in Montgomery County, as revealed by the Judicial Watch investigation, and in anomalous precinct results I've seen in my own races in 2010 and 2014. It has had nothing to do with Vladimir Putin.
4:27: Illegal voter fraud and a media blackout are what happened. What a coincidence that "Anna" is commenting on an old post just as the troll is commenting on it! Can we speak to "Wrol Evans" now? LOL
ReplyDeleteThe Judicial Watch investigation did not "reveal illegal voting".
ReplyDeleteNothing "anomalous" about MoCo residents voting for someone other than you.
5:14: Wrong! You obviously don't know the meaning of the word, "anomalous." 20 people not voting for 3 out of 4 GOP Council At-Large candidates in random Silver Spring precincts is indeed anomalous.
ReplyDeleteJudicial Watch revealed there are more names registered to vote in Montgomery County than there are actual eligible voters. #Oops
"20 people not voting for 3 out of 4 GOP Council At-Large candidates in random Silver Spring precincts is indeed anomalous."
ReplyDeleteLOL, WTF are you trying to say with that word salad?
8:20: I'll speak very slowly for your benefit - people don't favor one GOP candidate over the 3 above him or her in random precincts in great numbers. Hence such a result is an anomaly. There isn't that much support for GOP candidates in those areas, much less the apparatus to get 20-25 people to lockstep bullet vote for the last name on the GOP ticket.
ReplyDeleteYou can find anomalous results in anything you research, depending on your perspective and goals. Perhaps, people don't vote for names with 4 or less letters.
ReplyDeleteAre you really going to go all in with your lies and accusations when I can prove my truthfulness? I'm gonna sit back and let you dig yourself a bigger hole.
One day you'll realize that I'm simply a former-Republican Montgomery County voter, a constituent if you will, who challenged you on your views, and was treated as a liar and criminal for those challenges.
