More Of The Same

Forgive me for beating a dead horse, but isn't this the same lady that misplaced a $2000 bribe she claims she knew nothing about? I know that case is off the books now. Councilwoman Wanda Halbert better thank God for double jeopardy. Because of it she doesn't have that outcome to worry about any more. The citizens never got the complete story on that situation, because Bruce Thompson plea bargained it out. There was also something about a transportation contract being awarded by the MCS, while she was President of the board. To someone who didn't meet the required qualifications. It was rumored that the person in question happened to be her boyfriend. Let's not forget about the favoritism that was given her son in the form of scholarships. When more deserving students were overlooked. Because she was a member of the Memphis City School board. This woman's career in politics has been mired with questionable associations. "Where there's smoke there's fire."

Wanda Halbert is a very likable person. Her inviting personality is sort of contagious. You can't help but want to see her do well. You get the feeling she's had to struggle. That doesn't qualify her though to be a city council woman. She did enough damage while she was on the school board. Sarah Lewis, Gerry House, Carol Johnson and her. Sat this school system back twenty years. We needed a Kriner Cash a $100,000 dollars ago. We took corporal punishment out of the school. Now we have to put a school police force in place. This is just an example of her using her office to try and get the hook-up. Until the citizens of Memphis require yo be more than a "around the way girl." We'll continue to get more of the same.

I read where she was calling Thaddeus asking him not to talk about Janis.

If Thaddeus was such an investigative reporter he would tell the real story on her.

The same goes for Fullilove. He never reported her first DUI and barely taked about her accident when she lied how it happened.

He hasn't been talking about the fact thatc she lied get a new license.

He's not a journalist, he's a gossip columnist. Think of him as the National Enquirer, most facts are made up based on what he wants to report.

He spews bogus info on people he does not like or Politicans who wont advertise on his show. When someone brings up info however on his so called friends, he then asks for proof.

He's a joke and an embaresment

In my opinion her associations are not good indications of her character. I used to think it was just him lusting after her. But now, I think he has something damaging on her. She is appeasing this loudmouth, to keep him quiet.

The fact that she is often the member of the City Council that is pushing this guy's agenda. Is more than a coincidence.
