DID SONIC'S OWNER PASS GAS IN THE FACES OF TAXPAYERS?
Could it be that the OWNERS OF THE SONICS, who wanted our new arena have perhaps given OKLAHOMA CITY a BIG LEAGUE SCREW JOB?
LISTEN TO THIS:
A group calling itself "A Better Way Oklahoma" appears ready to launch an all-out attack on the state's new immigration law that began life as Rep. Randy Terrill's House Bill 1804.
Word of the group's formation came today in an interview in The Oklahoman in which Tom Price Jr., senior vice president of corporate development for Chesapeake Energy, discusses the new law. The thrust of the article is that Leadership Oklahoma City alumni invited Terrill and others to a Wednesday debate on the bill, but none "were able to participate."
Purpose of the luncheon, it was reported, was to examine 1804 and "give its supporters an opportunity to clarify some aspects of the bill."
It was apparent at the luncheon, the newspaper reports, that "some within the city's business community are ready to publicly oppose the statute."
That's no surprise; in February, The State Chamber, U. S. Chamber of Commerce and others filed a lawsuit that claims the law puts unfair and unreasonable burdens on Oklahoma employers and there have been rumblings that a group like A Better Way Oklahoma was being formed with "millions" in donations from prominent business leaders who agree with Price that something should be done about the law.
U. S. Senator Jim Inhofe, among those pushing for new federal laws on immigration, said he believes those behind the group should wait. "If I were to send a message to those business leaders, I'd say at least give us a chance," he said of efforts at the federal level.
"Randy (Terrill) has shown us one way of dealing with this crisis," Price said. "But unfortunately, this is like a classroom and the wrong guy raised his hand to answer the question."
Price said the group will sponsor town hall meetings across the state to "assess citizen input and concerns."
In OTHER WORDS: It would appear that CHESAPEAKE , in this case represented by VP TOM PRICE, who is one of the owners of the SONICS, has decided to lead a battle to overturn Oklahoma ’s OVERWHELMINGLY POPULAR and nationally modeled anti-ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION bill.
There were some…and I in fact was at first ONE of those who considered NOT SUPPORTING the ARENA TAX VOTE because of the idiotic lawsuit by the CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, attempting to overturn the law.
I backed off that position because I thought, no reason to screw the city because of the Chamber’s move.
However…I swear to you…IF I HAD KNOWN FOR SURE that the one of the companies involved in the SUPERSONICS was going to unleash this PRO ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION move ….AND INTENTIONALLY THE DAY AFTER THEY GOT THEIR ARENA OVERHAUL APPROVED….I would have told them to take their team and stick in one of their billionaires butts.
And the more I think about this I HAVE GOT TO BELIEVE that SOME POLITICIANS INVOLVED in pushing the arena tax KNEW that the SONICS owners, or at least one of them, was about to pour MILLIONS OF DOLLARS into making OKLAHOMA an ILLEGAL ALIEN HAVEN.
IF I can find out that indeed they did….and I can prove it….I will let you know WHO they were, and we’ll make sure those politicians don’t get elected again.
So, in a nutshell, one of the owners of the SONICS appears to be spending MILLIONS OF DOLLARS to make OKLAHOMA CITY a HAVEN FOR ILLEGALS!
