The worst part of this is Jay Fisette demanded campaign contributions from board members of the Classika-Synetic, Washington Shakespeare Company, and persons having a controlling interest in other organizations that will use the Cultural Center.

Jay Fisette demanded campaign contributions and campaign volunteers for Democratic candidates in return for pushing the cultural center. Favola also threatened those appointed to the various committees and commissions that they would not be reappointed if they did not support the cultural center.

They even dragged one of their pet Republican Ward Heelers away from a night in front of the boob tube to give a 3-minute speech shilling for their upscale vaudeville complex

So how much more in the way of taxes is the County Board going to blow over the next 2 months touring the sister cities?

New Sister City - Danville Virginia. Send Fi$ette there for the rest of the summer with a $ignature Theater road production of "Sweeney Todd."
