Cleveland Mayor - World Thinks We're A 'Butthole' City... But We're So Much More!!!
TMZ ^ | 6/03/20

Cleveland's mayor left a sour taste in the mouth's of many locals who tuned in to a discussion he had about the city ... referring to The Land as "The World's Butthole."

Mayor Frank Jackson was talking about his fair city and its charms on Wednesday -- but during the Facebook chat, he said yes, he's aware that many perceive Cleveland as Earth's anus ... so to speak. He very quickly made it clear, though, that HE doesn't actually believe that to be the case.

Check it out ... Frank says perception isn't always reality, and if you closely examine Cleveland's GDP and gross domestic capital -- it's actually fairly wealthy in that region of the country.

He's right, BTW ... there've been multiple studies and articles in recent years documenting Cleveland's output -- and the numbers, by and large, are on an upward trend dating back to the early 2000s. Even federal data backs up Cleveland's positive economic status.

Wait a minute - I thought Biloxi was the armpit of America...

Went to a bar ~40 years ago and it had bumper sticker on the wall: “ Clean up Biloxi, Kill an Airman” ...

Rush’s theme song although one never hears the lyrics

My City Was Gone

I went back to Ohio
But my city was gone
There was no train station
There was no downtown
South Howard had disappeared
All my favorite places
My city had been pulled down
Reduced to parking spaces
Ay, oh, way to go, Ohio

Well, I went back to Ohio
But my family was gone
I stood on the back porch
There was nobody home
I was stunned and amazed
My childhood memories
Slowly swirled past
Like the wind through the trees
Ay, oh, way to go, Ohio

I went back to Ohio
But my pretty countryside
Had been paved down the middle
By a government that had no pride
The farms of Ohio
Had been replaced by shopping malls
And Muzak filled the air
From Seneca to Cuyahoga Falls
Said, ay, oh, way to go, Ohio

Cleveland has rebounded rather well from its nadir in the 1970s. It’s never been a favorite city of mine but I will acknowledge that it isn’t as bad as it once was.

That said, all these cities that are just allowing people to commit arson, looting, violence against property, etc. risk making their cities worse. When you have inadequate police, you have anarchy. Will rapes happen less if there are no police to respond to them? Will burglaries happen less? Will murders happen less? Human nature tells us “of course not”.

So why give into these clowns?

Anyone living in a major metropolitan area with Democrat mayors, I have one piece of advice - MOVE!!! Quit your job, sell your house and get f-— out of dodge because with “leaders” like this, it will only be a matter of time before these criminals show up on your lawn. Then, it will be too late to call the cops.

I was shopping in Cleveland in the late 70s for some high-end stereo gear. A really ugly, really scrawny black dude walks into the stereo store and mumbles something to me. I said “Huh?” He mumbled slightly more clearly, but still unintelligible. I said “Speak clearly” and he replied “Wanna get physical?”

Butthole City indeed. Buying that stereo gear was my first and last experience in Cleveland.

That’s true, you’ve got a lot of buttholes there, mainly in politics.

The Rock & Roll historical display at Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison, CO is probably better. Has a movie too. Plus you get to see Red Rocks Park, dino bones and sometimes drag racing next door at Bandimere Speedway.

Well, all I can say is Cleveland is not on my top 10 cities I would like to visit.

I dunno, Mr. Mayor. If you had your police take a mostly passive stance while Marxist Radicals made short work of downtown, then yes, you are running a Butthole City.

Since Cleveland is in the Midwest, it could be more like a lint-filled navel. Los Angeles is probably the actual Butthole.
