This poem only gets 2 out of 5 frilly shirts and a bemused glance in the general direction of the aurthor

OK, you got what you wanted. He lost. Yet you continue to beat him up? No class.

Aw, come on, it's just "stuff and nonsense" and it IS mildly amusing!

I'd love to see an annotated version ;)

matt.

don't understand where you are coming from with all this. i assume that you and your
bff michael from dallas progress plan on pummelling this man oakley until is is just pulp?

he must has done something to really piss you off cause you obviously have it in for him.

beating a man when he is down is so uncool. but that's just me..and i'm a big homo...so what do i know.

perhaps you should tell us what you want mr. oakley to do. should he drag himself down commerce street begging for forgivness for ever enterting public service.

i am certain at this point matt pulle is a non entity to mr. oakley. however, i think you are a cool guy matt and i hate to see such a young man so angry and bitter. i might suggest that you accept the lord jesus christ as your personal savior and began speaking in tongues. wipe that make up from your pretty little face and throw on some holy oil. handle some serpents, have a yank and call it a day.

so close to jesus
i know his pin number

Hmmm. Very Fox News Channel of you. I will admit though, it's always fun to see a supposed apolitical reporter turn to behavior akin to that of the frustrated high school jock who got jilted by the loser in this year's Homecoming Queen Pageant. Please, now just print more really, really gay pictures of Oakley - I can't stop laughing.

Folks, I'd write a Leppert poem but it would be even lamer than the Oakley one. Leppert's words are too fuzzy and positive---there's no poetry in that.

Mattie...that's just wrong! Dirty Wrong...

Now, write something worth writing. Would ya?

And yeah, the "Mattie" was on purpose. No typo there :)

Mattie

One of two things are going down here with you.

Either you have developed a major man crush on Tom Leppart (not that there is anything wrong with that) or you are attempting to become the next mAnn Coulter.

Maybe both?

We are all hoping that Mr. Leppart does some great things for the city. Why can't you get off Ed Oakley's ass?

Why don't you answer logical questions that are posed to you?

Matt Pulle doth protest too much!

The question is why?
I think we now the answer.

Hey Guys:

You have to read the gushing love letter to our new mayor from Mattie Pulle.
Did you know that Tom Leppart doesn't use profainity and doesn't like people who do?
How fucking special is that?
He also goes to church and stays through the entire service. I never knew a human being could do that.

Tom also likes Grape Nuts and bran muffins so we know he is regular. Look for Mattie to nominate Tom's turd for Best Mayoral Excrement for D Magazine.

People, this is like something you would read on The Onion.

Mattie gushes, grovels, and writhes in all that is Tommy. Hey, did you know Tommy hangs with Roger Staubach....and he was a real Cowboy.

Think Mother Teresa with a grey Supercuts hairstyle and the inner sexuality of Angelina Jolie and that, in a nutshell, is how Mattie sees Tommy.

It really is cute and very....very sweet.
Like BFFs, only more Super than that. Like double BFFs. I swear, if Mattie doesn't get Head Cheerleader I'm gonna cry.

Anyway, it is a fun article....just taking the piss out of you Mattie. I am glad you are happy.

Let's leave Ed be and focus on the future. Obviously this publication has no editors with any sense of decency.

While Councilman Oakley's colleagues on the city council are being investigated by the FBI, and building statues to themselves, ... I would hope that THE DALLAS OBSERVER would now turn it's magnifying glass on someone besides Mr. Oakley.

THE FACT IS, while you make not like the way he voted on this or that, he has served a distinguished tenure on The Dallas City Council... and compared to many others who have served on the council, he is a saint...

And Ed Oakley DID make history... the entire world(from Paris to Sydney to Moscow to Qatar) was waiting to see who we would elect as our new mayor.... the sad part is only 85,000 of Dallas' over 1 million residents voted.
