In his own mind, Jason Grill is kind of a big deal. He believes being a State Representative is all about his ability to party.
It has to be, because as a politician, Grill’s career is all but finished. He is disliked universally by his own party, the majority party, Capitol lobbyists and anyone else who has ever met him.
Why? Frankly most of his constituents and party are embarrassed by his antics. His alleged behavior after his election night party in 2006 shows him to be irresponsible at best and criminal at worst. Grill embarrassed all Missourians at a football game, where he was described as “obnoxious, condescending and refused to refrain from using the vulgar language.”
That’s why it was no surprise this week when a flyer arrived for “Grill and Beck’s Ultimate Tailgate.” Only Jason Grill could believe that he and world soccer superstar David Beckham are in the same league.
The event is for a good cause- Autism Speaks, but has to question the choice of Jason Grill as its spokesman. There are many members of the Kansas City community who are respected and liked for their contributions to this community. Unfortunately the only thing Jason Grill is known for are his wannabe playboy ways and overblown ego.
The Source wonders if the Wizards will show an in-kind expense for Grill’s campaign in what is clearly a promotional piece complete with team logos. As a side note Grill’s main squeeze is the in charge of community relations for the Wizards. (Say, you don’t think there’s a conflict of interest here do ya?)
Given his past behavior, the Source couldn’t help but laugh at the $85 ticket for a couch and personal service in the invite. Here’s a tip for any women attending: bring your mace can.
He sure did spend a lot of money for a State Rep seat. The billboards were palstered over Platte County. Heard his daddy bought it for him.

Grill is everything that is wrong about politicians. He's never held a job in his life. Basically the only thing he has ever produced on his own he had to flush when he finished.

I'm a 912er and a Tea Party member.
Wow, who wrote that article? Sounded angry. I was doing some research and stumbled across this article. Does not seem professional or objective. Sounds jealous.
I'm not supportive of either party at this moment. However, the accusations do not fit Mr. Grill's documented credentials.
However, I will double check to see if any of this might possibly be true.
There is enough wrong with the democratic party and many of our representatives without making what seems like childish rants. There are so many more important issues facing our country today and many truly unethical and immoral representatives that we need to be focused on removing from office.
Unfortunately, the tone of the article sounded like this was an old rival which caused the article to lose credibility to me.
