Copy of Letter to Fairborn Council:

Mayor and Council:

It was my pleasure last December to bring to your attention the need for a recall amendment. But I had hoped you would simply affirm existing Ohio law, forever preserving the rights of Fairbornites on par with our fellow Ohioans. Instead, you opted for some sloppy, self-preserving rewrite that now poses substantial problems, such as:

1) Virtually forcing recall by Special Elections only. Ohio law allows for recall votes during ANY election. You limited it to municipal elections or special elections. Since municipal elections occur only once every two years, you basically force special elections. These cost taxpayers a minimum of $41k.

2) Ohio law has no minimum time of service by a bad official before recall is sought. You made it 180 days. Why? Why do we need to endure 6 months of a bad official?

3) You replaced the state law system which allows alternate candidates on the recall ballot for voters to choose in favor of...drumroll...YOU simply appointing a successor! Wow! What a power grab!

4) You limit the number of officials who can face recall in a single election to 3. Why? I know. You heard about that Maumee case which triggered our amendment need in the first place. You realized that Ohioans can vote to recall the WHOLE Council if the need arises. And you scrambled to take that right away from us.

Unfortunately, I was pretty ill at the time of this amendment campaign and couldn't really get the word out to my fellow citizens.

I was appalled that Jimmy Baker would promote this anti-citizen slop for you, while painting himself as some hero of the people. Granted, I doubt he even understands it.

Then the City Attorney tried to tell the Dayton Daily News your amendment was basically no different than state law. What utter dishonesty!

You did make one huge mistake in your attempt to promote your own interests:

5) You didn't include a time limit on petitions. Ohio law requires submission of petitions within 90 days of the first signature. Oopsie! You forgot that! So, in theory, on the 181st day of the term of a bad Council member, disgruntled citizens can float a recall petition for about 3 years!

In summary, your amendment is a trainwreck. Fix it. And, in the future, stick with state law over the far inferior option of your "in-house" advisors.

Sincerely,
Karen L. Combs

I realize that Jimmy Baker news is getting droll as the subject himself. I've been bored with him for over a year, trust me.

But now there is the matter of his hilarious "cease and desist" public post directed at all his critics. Then my spot-on, legally-sound reply. Then him shrieking about me not contacting him ever again!!! Mommy!!! 🤣

This is how he rolls - mentions CFFF in a public post - I provide the courtesy of a PRIVATE reply - he screams "don't contact me!" Okay, LowT. Simmer down. Find a binkie.

Tomorrow I'll post details. Relaxing this evening. Long week of fighting demons and losers. Need to sharpen my blade/pen. But whatever I did to deserve this level of entertainment, Lord, thank you. 🤣

Buy One, Get One Free: The Two Faces of Jimmy Baker

Baker in a public post on August 17, speaking of your humble Editor Karen Combs (and yes, he does randomly capitalize words and has no clue about basic grammar):

"She's unemployed and can't pay her bills;"
"She lives off her 90 year live-in mother's Money and her living in Son and daughter-in-law;"
"She is the town Otis Campbell" (an alcoholic character on the old 'Andy Griffith Show').

Just 3 days later, Jimmy Baker's public post:

"I am not going to stoop to name-calling or attack people's families and personal lives."

🤣😂🤣😂🤣 3 days. Priceless.

For the record, Jimmy's "sources" aside:
- I am on public employee disability. I have never been "unemployed;"
-I haven't lived with my mother since 1986. Funnier still, Jimmy knows exactly where she lives. Wonder what could affect his memory like that? 🤔
-It's funny how Jimmy thinks he's privy to my family inheritances.
-My son is divorcing. Pretty sure the couple doesn't live with me... Awkward. 🤣
-I do struggle financially. I've had tons of health problems. So is a candidate for public office really shaming a disabled constituent for her medical expenses while he reaps disability benefits too?
-Unlike Otis and Jimmy, I have NO alcohol-related arrests (or any arrests, period). Keep working on getting yours swept under the rug, Jimbo.

Again and again, he proves he thinks a political candidate can behave like a drunk at the bar.

If I harken back to grade school, a common little girl "fight" ploy was to get mutual friends to defend you/attack your nemesis. But even little girls outgrow that once they learn to fend for themselves. Imagine my surprise as this grown man has employed this playground tactic? I can't tell you how many people have messaged me reporting his pathetic efforts. He should have recess taken away. 🤣

And, as you read his bizarre and false attacks on me, keep in mind that I helped him for years for FREE. THIS is the gratitude you get from a worm like Baker.

In the meantime, there hasn't been a recall update in 2 weeks. He's been M.I.A. at Council meetings. Jimmy says he's "moving forward," but toward what? Golly, methinks that history ISN'T being made anytime soon by Baker!

It's far too late, Jimmy, to pretend you are an honorable man. Give up on the phony proselytizing. Do Fairborn a favor and simply crawl off.
