God help the city of New Britain if O'Brien ever got elected as mayor.
ReplyDeleteHe has done little or nothing for New Britain while in the legislature.
He shakes your hand and smiles. He is only qualified to be a WALMART GREETER.
haaa
ReplyDeleteDream on, Tim O'Brien.

The comment above deserves a huge DITTO!!!
Walmart hires people who organize protests at their stores to be greeters?
ReplyDeleteIsn't it so inspiring that it took him several months to finally make up his mind, and only after it was exposed that the party couldn't get anyone else to run, did he finally decide to do it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a Leader!
He didn't do enough damage at the legislature, now he wants to see how he can destroy the city with his brand of socialism?
ReplyDeleteThis is what the Canadians have to say about what these liberals are doing to this country:
ReplyDeleteElections have consequences. And the 2008 General Election heralded in the most dire consequences yet for the USA.
hold onto your wallets, the radicals are trying to take over the city!
ReplyDeleteI am not from New Britain but I live close by. I spend many hours at the capital. In talking to the legislators they would like nothing better than to have O'Brien become Mayor.
ReplyDeleteThen they would be RID OF HIM !!!!!
He screws up everything he touches.
I guess after he loses, he won't be embarrassed to face his fellow legislators when he returns to the state capitol as a loser?
ReplyDeleteIt's a pipe dream to think O'Brien has a chance against such a popular Mayor as Tim Stewart.
ReplyDeleteThey must think that they will spew their hatred at Stewart and the public is stupid enough to believe all their rhetoric--for example the staged meeting for Pinnacle heights when they knew weeks in advance that the buyer's were not available to meet on that date, but Sherwood insisted that they have the mayor speak on their behalf. What was that all about?
ReplyDeleteNational Right to Work Foundation has used the power of the courts to check Big Labor's abuses, defend workers' rights, block illegal organizing drives, and hold union thugs accountable for violence and bloodshed.
ReplyDeleteWhat will happen to Tim O'Brien if he loses the Mayor election? Will he be able to finish his term as state legislature? If not, he'll be a lost soul...look what happened to Jim Wyskiewicz 2 years ago...he's gone with the wind.
ReplyDeleteBetty Boop,
ReplyDeleteHe will only be in the middle of his term as a Representative, so he will have one more year to serve out as the loser that he is.
Without mud slinging, Tim O'Brien is a nice guy. Mayor Stewart is known at times to be a tough guy. Nice guys finish last. Citizens who vote for nice guys will finish last. Tim Stewart is doing a good job for the city even in the toughest of times and even with the
ReplyDeletemost ridiculas group of council members. It is amazing the strides that have been made despite
the the ethics breaches, bi-partisnship voting, ignorance, why
we have even had a council member voting and deciding on our behalfs while he lives over the line in Berlin.
I am a republican but I will always
vote for the qualified candidate. Democrats, I implore you to make an educated vote this municipal election.
It will be a pleasure to send him back to the capitol to face his colleagues who will no doubt be laughing behind his back at him being such a loser!

Only in America!! God Bless us all!!
The governor vetoed the bill because she said it let private companies dictate how much taxpayers should pay.
ReplyDelete"It takes private union contracts and makes that the standard wage for negotiated contracts with anyone," Rell said. "We don't do that with any other contract."
This nonsense is brought to you in part by Representative Tim O'Brien and now he wants to be mayor.
Is this an example of the socialist issues he will want us all to pay for as mayor?
NEW BRITAIN — A newly released report by the Connecticut Citizen Action Group (CCAG) highlights the problems of minority communities and health care in New Britain.
ReplyDeleteCCAG Deputy Director Phil Sherwood said the report - Unequal Lives: That Health Care Discrimination Harms Communities of Color in New Britain, and explains how more than 103 million members of the nation’s minority populations suffer disproportionately because they do not have adequate health care.
We must provide quality, affordable health care to everyone regardless of race, ethnicity, sex or income said Phil Sherwood.
Sherwood said with its large population of people of color in New Britain the city’s residents would benefit from the plan. Sherwood, along with CCAG Board Member, Lisa Reynolds, maintained that the long history of discrimination in medical treatment mandated a change in the health care system in New Britain.
Mrs. Rhona Cohen, wife of Rep. Tim O”Brien, with the “Connecticut Center for a New Economy”, said that health inequity is about institutionalized biases in the medical system.
For people of color in New Britain and Connecticut, life is shorter, chronic illness more prevalent and disability more common, Rhona Cohen said. We need Congress to support and enact legislation that works to erase inequities in health access, treatments and outcomes.
Rep. O'Brien is married to Ms. Rhona Cohen O'Brien a colored women, and has a stepson named Eoin. The O'Brien family resides in New Britain CT.

ReplyDeleteThe govenor did the right thing. Capitol cleaning should be responsible for their own employees and their dependents not the taxpayers of the state of CT. Now the bleeding hearts are crying a river. It's true if the state does it for one, where does it end.
Obviously Tim O'Brien disagrees with you as he supported forcing the taxpayers to pay for a private company's insurance bill and according to the Governor, even allowing the company to dictate to the state how much that cost would be?
Is this the type of leadership you want for New Britain???????????
Deputy director Phil Sherwood? Didn't the CCAG endorse Phil Sherwood? So essentially Phil Sherwood endorsed Phil Sherwood? Did He put a disclaimer on the CCAG endorsement? Wait a second now that I think about it isn’t Phil Sherwood a member of the New Britain DTC? Did he put a disclaimer on the endorsements of DTC candidate’s last election? It must be a different Phil Sherwood because our Phil Sherwood is a champion of ethics in politics :-).
ReplyDeleteAnyway lets get to this moronic post.
...Sherwood, along with CCAG Board Member, Lisa Reynolds, maintained that the long history of discrimination in medical treatment...
I would call this the most arrogant statement in the post. If this is true Phil Sherwood, Tim O’Brien and Ms. Reynolds seem to believe that the Doctors, Nurses, EMT personnel, Insurance agents and police officers are bigots with a coordinated plan to keep minorities out of the medical establishments!!!!
Another great example of the hysteria that is liberalism is this statement.... We must provide quality, affordable health care to everyone regardless of race; ethnicity, sex or income said Phil Sherwood....
Mr. Sherwood it is 2009, every person is entitled to the same care. There is no two-tier system when it comes to medical care. The real issues are not the healthcare system but instead it is the constant drumbeat from leaders like you that convince poor Americans that they have inferior insurance when in fact most are eligible for insurance under plans like the husky plan that are in fact better than what many working middleclass people have.
Then there is this whopper....
Mrs. Rhona Cohen, wife of Rep. Tim O’Brien, with the “Connecticut Center for a New Economy”, said that health inequity is about institutionalized biases in the medical system....
See above for how I feel about that.
And the grand daddy of them all is this...For people of color in New Britain and Connecticut, life is shorter, chronic illness more prevalent and disability more common, Rhona Cohen said. We need Congress to support and enact legislation that works to erase inequities in health access, treatments and outcomes.
All I can say here is that these egomaniacs have fallen off their rockers.
IT IS SCIENTIST AND DOCTORS WHO CURE DISEASE NOT POLITICIANS.
These yahoos would have you believe that there is not an effort in the scientific community to understand these problems and what causes them.
THAT IS JUST SIMPLY A FALSE PRESUMTION.
Certainly NOT! Vote Tim Stewart for Mayor.
ReplyDeleteO'Brien said Friday that as mayor, he would use anti-blight laws to go after irresponsible landlords who live out of town.
ReplyDeleteWill he go after Aldermen who live out of town too?
