An anonymous YouTuber who’s account was created just in the last few days has posted a humorous albeit mean video of Councilmember Frank Ferry during some of his….finer moments.
The video, posted today by YouTube user “Not a Ferry Fan,” focuses mostly on Ferry’s stated goal of relieving traffic in the SCV and his outspoken support of the Hospital’s expansion plan during last summer’s Council meetings.
The video has amatuer production values and at one-point superimposes an X-Ray of Homer Simpson’s head over Frank Ferry as Ferry goes off on what the hospital expansion plan is really about (brains).
Later on, Frank Ferry talks more about the hospital as text of the Henry Mayo Hospital/G&L Realty Development Agreement scrolls by, particularly the section that does not require G&L & Henry Mayo to construct a new inpatient building.
The clips also show the volcanic side of Frank Ferry’s personality during City Council meetings.
In one segment, he gesticulates wildly and shouts at the aerial map of the hospital site and the McBean/Orchard Village Road intersection.
The producer then flashes “MELTDOWN ALERT” several times in red as Ferry continues his emotional rant.
Other segments of the video show the infamous “collusion” allegation leveled by Councilmember TimBen Boydston last summer as emails between City Planning staff and consultant Jeff Lambert surfaced. Earlier in the video, Councilmember Ferry reacts to that by telling Boydston “I was elected. You weren’t even elected.”
The video also shows people, including Dr. Gene Dorio and Mayo CEO Roger Seaver, speaking before the City Council at various meetings last year.
The last segment of the video zooms in on a recent campaign mailer -paid for by the Frank Ferry Committee- that encouraged voters to vote for Councilmember Bob Kellar and Candidate Laurie Ender for City Council.
Ferry acknowledged last week that he may have broken the law by paying for that mailer.
