Lord, Lord! Tommy Krantz and Little Timmy "The Tool" Boyd. What a combination; two laughing stocks on one ticket. This oughta be good.
Now that's something to celebrate. I've recommended that Tommy "Smoke and Mirrors" Krantz leave the school system for almost 2 years. He's no good for Hamilton County. He helped Hamilton County wipe their rearends on the Americans with Disabilities Act. Children have suffered greatly here because of Krantz. Maybe he can take Dr. "Can't teach a dog to fetch a stick" Scales with him. Let there be rejoicing in Hamilton County. Declare a snow day or something. LOL. LOL. LOL.
