Exposing Corruption, Injustices and the Truth.
Welcome to the Watchdog's Chit
Chat page. This page is a place
where our readers can read some of
the random musings of the O'Fallon
Watchdog.
Along with what area papers report
there are many fellow Watchdogs in
the area that often share Tid-Bits of
information with the Watchdog.
Some readers may not understand
some of the Watchdog's musings
but others most certainly will.
Got a interesting Tid-Bit for the
Watchdog? Send it using the link on

Frankly, I'm fed up with politicians in Washington lecturing the rest of us about
family values. Our families have values. But our government doesn’t.
BILL CLINTON, speech at Democratic National Convention, July 16, 1992




Welcome back to Watchdog Chit Chat. Sorry for the delay but I've been
reading Mayor Donna Morrow's 20 volumes of books which require
O'Fallon to violate the law.
Speaking of Morrow, I hope everyone got to see her on You Paid For It last
week. Morrow was defending O'Fallon's actions in issuing building permits to
McBride & Sons to build houses on a public road (Koch Road.) Morrow had
originally instructed staff to inform McBride that building permits would not be
issued until Koch Road was vacated but she later changed her mind (as well as
her direction, her friends, her assistant and her hair style) and allowed Bob
Lowery and staff to violate the law. Morrow's explanation? "Because we had
the authority to."
Mark Perkins is running against Dan Christoff for a seat on the O'Fallon
council. While Christoff has still not figured out who he is representing he has
made some progress and he is a much better candidate than Perkins. Perkins
served on the board during the corrupt tenure of Paul Renaud and Perkins was
a loyal Renaud soldier. Perkins was booted from office by a convincing margin
when he lost to Bob Patek and voters in Ward 1 need to remind themselves
why Perkins needed to go.
St. Peters is doing all it can to take the spotlight off O'Fallon. Elliott Davis and
You Paid For It have done several stories on wasteful spending in St. Peters
and the city has not done itself any favors either as it continues to attempt to
keep its residents from hearing dissenting view points. Here is a partial list of
St. Peters actions; limiting citizen comments, moving comments to the
end of meetings, restrictive seating so that critics won't be seen on TV,
removal of KFAV from its cable access because it carries a radio show, Fish
& Ships which has been critical of the city's actions, refusal to air the findings of
Missouri State Auditor Susan Montee's audit and repeated attempts to
misrepresent facts to its residents. St. Peters and its former mayor Tom
Brown, also were found by a Federal jury to have punished an area
business in retaliation for the business owner speaking out against the
city.
Rumor has it:
* Bob Lowery has been looking for a new job
* The following people are considering running for O'Fallon mayor in 2009;
Vickie Schneider, Cynthia Davis, Bill Gardner, Peter Cantwell, Donna
Morrow and Pierce Conley.
* First Capitol News will start covering O'Fallon
* A new paper may start covering O'Fallon
* More lawsuits are coming O'Fallon's way
Dog Bites:
* Do the Suburban Journals and the Post-Dispatch call it hush money or
advertising dollars?
* Susan Montee just finished her investigation into Jeffrey Dahmer and
declared him a good guy. And a vegetarian.
* Where has Peter Cantwell gone?
* Why is the "great" former police chief Steve Talbott still just a patrolman?
* Who looked worse, Donna "we have the authority" Morrow or Len "deer in
the headlights" Pagano?
* Steve Ehlmann has announced that there are job openings in County
government. All interested current and former St.Charles County elected
officials are asked to apply directly to Ehlmann.
* Whatever happened to that school in Hyland Green? Please direct all
inquiries to Carl Maus (e-mail Carl Maus)
* When is the Governor going to fill the vacancy of St. Charles County
Prosecuting Attorney?
* Does Mark Perkins want to get elected to build his resume for a job with
Paul McKee?
The Dog House:
It was a tough decision on who to put in the dog house so we decided to send
Donna Morrow and Len Pagano in together. Both have turned on those who
supported them and both abandoned their campaign promises. In addition, both
of them have become an embarrassment to their respective cities. Of course,
the real reason we are putting them in the dog house is because we have the
authority to, because we have the authority to.
* St. Peters Press release: The City of St. Peters is pleased to announce
Mayor Len Pagano has been invited to join the prestigious "Dog House" by the
O'Fallon Watchdog. The Watchdog cited Pagano on his ability to change
direction when needed and noted his willingness to take a stance, even if means
disagreeing with his supporters. Pagano stated "I am proud of this award and
take special satisfaction in the recognition of my appearance on You Paid For
It, where the Watchdog noted my ability to look at an issue head on without
blinking." St. Peters residents are reminded not to visit the Watchdog web
site directly for information but instead all information will be made
available by our PR(avda) department.
