Schlock and awl: Duggins' captive NAHA to meet the candidates, prepare voter lists for future persuasion, and play-act some make-believe democracy.

But are they registered to vote?

Over at the New Albany Housing Authority, Commissar David "125K" Duggins is getting into the spirit of democratization, announcing that President Alexander Lukashenko of Belarus has endorsed Duggins' bid to become Executive Director for Life.

Not only that ... a party!

But seriously, there really will be a pre-primary candidate panel and loyalty oaths voter registration rally on Thursday, March 29, from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at the Erni Avenue gym.

Structural engineers have affirmed that the gym should be able to withstand the shock waves of hypocrisy emanating from Team Gahan members in attendance.

Below, the text of the letter announcing the event. As a friend observed, "As you can see, an uninformed reader might come to the conclusion that Duggins cares about the residents."

NA Confidential readers know better, of course, as do South Seas islanders and the woman in the moon.

As NAC told you a month ago, public housing neophyte David Duggins will be the interim director of NAHA -- and at Bob Lane's pay grade.

How y'all feeling, Democrats?

Your beloved leader just did another one of those things that you'd be condemning -- nay, resisting -- if it had originated with Donald Trump. But hey, it's like Jeff Gahan once said: "Nobody reads the paper."

Especially Gahan, though gazing lovingly upon his own photo is another shtick entirely.

Gahan's public housing putsch steamrolled forward on Monday evening as the mayor's handpicked NAHA board of bobbleheaded brown-nosing flatterers selected the completely inexperienced David Duggins to serve as interim public housing dismantler.

Not only that, the double-dipping economic dishevelment director Duggins was awarded the same salary and benefits as Bob Lane, recently decapitated at Gahan's command. If memory serves, Lane held the job for 15 years.

But you see, as with Trump's appointees, Duggins needn't know anything at all. He's there to tear down public housing, not build it back, with the job performance bar separated from the dusty ground by an expanse equal to a flea's nostril hair. Dugout can clear it with ease so long as the bulldozers don't run out of petrol.

This is YOUR team, Democrats. When is the protest march?

Previously:

The Green Mouse has learned that David Duggins will be the interim director of the New Albany Housing Authority.

Advocates for the vulnerable find Gahan's public housing putsch "distressing." Interim director Duggins responds by crushing a beer can on his forehead.

Fake facts and disgraceful behavior: Jeff Gahan faced opposition to his public housing putsch, so now he's seeking to discredit NAHA with propaganda.

The Green Mouse has learned that David Duggins will be the interim director of the New Albany Housing Authority.

You know, just like when The Donald appointed Ben Carson to run HUD.

More as reports trickle in.

With Wassmer out, meet our first selection as 1Si's "Kingpin for a Week."

It's now official, but on Wednesday, as we paused to consider that Jody (Wassmer), we hardly knew ye, loyal reader TLB posted this perceptive note at Facebook.

I would like to announce that I have accepted the post of CEO of One Southern Indiana. I regret that I have to step down on Monday. I treasure our time that we have worked together.

He’s stumbled upon a fantastic idea, and it is our pleasure to introduce a new NAC reality series, “Kingpin for a Week.”

We now are accepting applications, suggestions, nominations and inquisitions for this prestigious honor, because we’ll be selecting a new 1Si head cheese each Friday -- that is, until a real one is temporarily positioned by the rudderless organization itself , after which we’ll play it by ear.

Today’s choice is the easiest of all, so let's have a drum roll, please:

Meet the new 1Si CEO for the week of February 24 – March 1 of 2012

It's Benny Breeze!
