Government Employee Cathy Kuehne is Seriously Deluded. Thinks She is a Small Business Expert

The delusions are strong with this one. I’m talking Julie Cain Landrum level of delusion.

In today’s Dispatch, Cathy Kuehne (who has been on City council for four years already) was asked to tell us about what she brings to the table as she runs for a third term.

After following her for four years on this blog, I can tell you with great confidence that the REAL answer to that question is an emphatic “nothing“…unless you count a lot of expensive screw-ups, ridiculous money wasting and hysteria about Covid.

She trots out her college major in Business Administration as proof of her business acumen. When you are in your 50s and still talking about what you majored in in college, you are seriously grasping at straws. Nobody gives a shit about that.

This is a woman who thinks spending $1.4 million to give the Hostess House a “facelift” so they can rent it out for $10,000 per year is a brilliant move.

She claims that thanks to her 30-year-old BBA degree, “she learned what it takes to keep a business running efficiently and effectively…skills which I have applied to our personal business as well“

What business is that? I thought you were a public school teacher for the last 30 years? Last I checked, you and your husband are full time employees of the Lampasas School District – pulling down a combined $126,000 per year nine months….PLUS benefits, sick days, 10 days of Covid leave IN ADDITION to regular sick leave (which is no doubt abused by everyone), all federal holidays, summers off and future pensions guaranteed. All to teach ‘art’, or something.

Is she talking about her “business” of taking photos of kids sports teams? I’d call that more of a hobby. You have no employees, no suppliers, no transportation costs, no exposure to massive price in creases of your packaging costs or shipping costs – and since you and your husband BOTH have extreme job security provided by the taxpayers, you could literally run that ‘business’ at a $10,000 per year loss and it wouldn’t hurt you a bit. It is a side hustle…NOT a small business.

Here are some REAL small businesses: Cherry on Top, Lampasas Beer Market, Bill’s Burgers, Copy Cat, M&M Butcher Block, Alfredo’s, Giovanis, Legacy Awning, PhoLicious, Putters & Gutters, Eve’s Cafe. THOSE are people risking their savings and dealing with 20 different issues every day.

You take pictures of little kids.

Oooh. That sounded a bit weird. Sorry.

Unfortunately, I think Kuehne has her sights set on being mayor someday. That cannot happen. She is part of the Talbert Faction of Cronies. This includes Misti Talbert (now wreaking financial havoc at the LEDC), TJ Monroe (current mayor), and Chuck “The Vampire” Williamson (who has his strings pulled by Monroe). It is an incestuous group that has squandered incredible sums of money over the last 6 or 8 years.

All remnants of the Talbert Faction of Cronies need to be pushed out of the Lampasas political body like a large bowel movement and flushed down the toilet. We need more council members who have actually lived in the real world and run a REAL small business. Zac Morris and Herb Pearce were a good start. Replacing Kuehne with Myles Haider (small business owner) would be a great continuation of this process.

Make City Council Great Again!

Yesterday when I picked up the kid from school, I noticed a dog trotting down the street.

It had some hard excrement stuck to its matted fur just to the left of his asshole. This reminded me of City council a little bit.

You see, eventually that hardened turd will fall off and his bum can be clean again. Just like city council can be awesome again. We just need to remove some turds.

Like Cathy Kuehne.

Pork Chops With a Heaping Side of Hypocrisy

Cathy Kuehne just keeps proving over and over what a dunce she is. Her recent rantings and ramblings on Covid are just a huge jumble of lies, stupidity and hypocrisy.

Let’s look at a few examples, shall we?

At the September 13 council meeting, she got into a pissing match with a member of the audience about a new Covid benefit for City employees. That was when she made up the huge pile of shit that she “put herself at risk” every day as a teacher – because of, like, Covid and stuff.

The very Covid she already had back in February, but OK Porkchop. If you say so.

THEN, she whined to the audience member that “If I were to get Covid directly from a student, the school district says ‘take your own time’ and I don’t think it’s right” [see 1:06:17]

WRONG again, Porkchop. Either she is too stupid to know her own school’s policy OR she is lying her face off here to look like a martyr. Doesn’t really matter – the bottom line is that as a teacher, she DOES get Covid time. It was on the front page of the Dispatch back in January:

‘In addition, trustees voted to give all school district employees an additional 10 days of paid leave for “COVID-19-related issues,” Millican said‘

That’s not “if you’re sick with Covid”, by the way. That’s “Covid-related issues”, which is so vague that only a true moron could not figure out a way to take advantage of that 2-week paid vacation if they wanted to.

So don’t cry about your school not taking care of you, ok Porkchop? You get better benefits than just about anybody in the private sector, you ingrate.

But there is more! It turns out that besides being a pretend martyr, and a liar or an uninformed school district employee (take your pick) she is ALSO a giant hypocrite!

She wails about how she “puts herself at risk every day” by bravely walking into the school. Yet she is MORE than happy to spend a ton of time unmasked around kids if it means she can make a buck!

Porkchop (and hubby) puts herself at risk for $$$

That’s right. Porkchop and her husband are the ones who take all those pictures of your kids at sporting events – basketball, cheerleading, etc. In fact, she was doing just that mere days after whining about putting herself at risk in school!

So I guess it’s ok to “put yourself at risk” selling wildly overpriced photos to parents, right?

This just proves my point about how ridiculous it is to try and point to where you “caught Covid” when it comes to cops and firefighters (and teachers or anyone else). If Porkchop DID come down with Covid a second time a week from now, she would no doubt blame it on the school and demand paid time off (which she already gets).

She would conveniently ignore the fact that she was ALSO around a bunch of kids later that same day and could have just as easily caught it from THEM. There is simply no way to know.

One thing is for sure, if there are a few bucks to be made, Porkchop’s Covid hysteria and histrionics go right out the window.
