Historic Vienna, Inc: The Town of Vienna's Publicly Funded Big Lie and Consummate Con Job

"Would you like lies with that?"

Read this letter (PDF) from Laine Hyde to Mayor Seeman. Yes, it sounds like a nice old lady showing off her community spirit, but reality is far different. Laine Hyde and Historic Vienna, Inc. have regularly abused the property rights of Vienna citizens under the guise of phony historic preservation.

We mince no words: Laine Hyde and Maud Robinson are both political cons. The whole notion that the Town of Vienna and Historic Vienna, Inc. actually preserve and or protect anything is simply a lie. Oh, you don't like such harsh language? That upsets you?

Consider some insights on what constitutes a "con":

"What does set con artists apart is the natural ability, often discovered at a very young age, to manipulate the people around them. Added to this is the fact that such manipulation leaves them without any feeling of guilt or remorse. On the contrary, it leaves them with an intense feeling of satisfaction - a particular glow that encourages them to continue manipulating to get whatever they want, regardless of the cost to the giver. They easily compartmentalize their different characters, victims, and on-going scams. If they cannot quite remember a fact (or lie), they can dance around the lapse so convincingly that you will seldom, if ever, notice."

Isn't that an accurate description of these people?

The proof of our statements is across this web site. The letter posted above from Hyde to Seeman is yet another great example of our point. The remarks in that letter about preservation are bold-faced lies. But at this stage of the game Hyde could care less what she says as long as she keeps power.

Better question? Do all the people below associated with Historic Vienna Inc. support the big con too? Are they as ethically challenged as Hyde and Robinson?
