O’BRIEN SAYS HE’S PROUD TO BE ENDORSED BY A RADICAL CULT!

EDITORIAL By: Frank Smith

An article in the Sunday Herald quoted Tim O’Brien as being proud to receive the endorsement of the Working Families Party during a campaign rally in front of City Hall (O’Brien Proud to get Working Families endorsement by: Scott Whipple, The Herald, August 29, 2009).

As I already reported, Glenn Beck recently did a show focused on the radical organization Working Families Party. According to Beck’s in depth report; Working Families Party is a front group for the radical cult ACORN. It functions as a political party in New York State and Connecticut—promoting ACORN friendly candidates.

According to the Associated Press, The Working Families Party was created in 1998 to help push the Democratic Party towards the left, and in pursuit of this goal, WFP runs radical candidates in state and local elections.

I believe the reference to “working families” is at best a misnomer to conceal their radical agenda because who could be against “working families?” As outlined in Glenn Beck’s report, “Generally, WFP candidates conceal their extremism beneath a veneer of populist rhetoric, promoting bread-and-butter issues designed to appeal to union workers and other blue collar workers.

Bertha Lewis is Executive Director of ACORN New York and Co-Founder of Working Families Party. Ms. Lewis was quoted as being present at Saturday’s rally for O’Brien and quoted as telling O’Brien: “Get a pair of steel-toed boots and put “WFP’ on each toe and you’ll win.”

We have found a more interesting quote from Bertha Lewis that was contained in Glenn Beck’s report:
“Candidates know that when they’re on our line, they’re committed to certain things,” explains Bertha Lewis, who moonlights as WFP co-chair and New York ACORN executive director. Speaking days before Hillary won her Senate seat in 2000, Lewis noted, “Hillary knows that if she wins, we’re going to be knocking’ on her door. She won’t be able to hide.” (Quoted in the Village Voice, November 1-7, 2000) (Emphasis Glenn Beck’s.)
The message seems to be that when O’Brien wins the election, ACORN will be knocking on the doors of City Hall. Is that what you want in your mayor, someone who is beholden to such a radical cult?

RENO TEA PARTY PROTEST DRAWS THOUSANDS!

After over 5,000 people turned out to protest in Sacramento, thousands have turned out in Reno Nevada. Many of the people interviewed expressed a determination to "DUMP HARRY REID" as their Senator in 2010. Imagine that, 1,000's of people in Harry Reid's own district mad as hell that the government is out of control, especially with their plan to ram socialized medicine down our throats.

State Government: Closed Until Further Notice??



EDITORIAL: BY: FRANK SMITH


I agree with one of my recent reader's posts. The Governor should not sign another "continuing resolution" for anything other than the state police and the state hospitals. She should close all state agencies and send everyone home. Lay them all off!

When people are mad that they have no services, all the Governor needs to do is tell everyone to call their legislators and tell them to find ways to cut their socialist spending so that we can get the state reopened.

If the State of Rhode Island can close for 2 weeks because the Democrats bankrupted that state too, why can't we just close everything down until they cut the bloated government the Democrats are so good at creating?

CAVUTO: THE TEA PARTIES ARE BACK!



story by: Frank Smith

The Tea Party Express touched off today with thousands turning out in Sacramento, California for the first of 33 cities that the express will stop in before marching on Washington on September 12.

One of the main issues among the people seems to be the fact that their wishes are being ignored by their representatives in Congress, much like how our own Congressman, Chris Murphy is ignoring us here in New Britain.

Want to be part of it? The Tea Party Express will be in Hartford on September 11th at 10AM. (State Capitol, North Steps). Click the headline above to see Neil Cavuto's report on the Sacramento crowd!

My response to John’s comments that appears below his question



EDITORIAL


First you complains that you didn't receive a response from Congressman Murphy. Then, once you get a response that answers your question, you complain that you don't like the response. Congressman Murphy is clearly making him available to the public (5 times next week). The only thing unacceptable is your unwillingness to participate in a civil discussion. I'm sure we won't see Frank Smith at any of Congressman Murphy's town halls next week because he needs to hide behind his keyboard.

JOHN: IT IS AMAZING THAT YOU HAVE NOT NOTICED THE MANY COMMENTS ON THIS BLOG REGARDING MY ATTEMPTING TO ARRANGE AN APPOINTMENT FOR SENIORS TO MEET WITH THE CONGRESSMAN DURING MID JULY ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT THE CONGRESSMAN’S SCHEDULE FOR AUGUST HAD NOT BEEN ARRANGED. BUT,I WOULD BE NOTIFIED OF THE ARRANGEMENTS ONCE THEY WERE SCHEDULED. MUCH TO MY DISMAY, I READ AN ARTICLE THAT APPEARED IN A LOCAL NEWSPAPER GLORIFYING THE CONGRESSMAN FOR HOLDING "A TOWN HALL MEETING," IN HIS NEW BRITAIN OFFICE, WITH ALL OF SEVEN PEOPLE IN ATTENDANCE DURING THE MONTH OF AUGUST.

NO PUBLIC NOTICE OF THIS MEETING COULD BE FOUND AND NO PRIOR ADVICE OR NOTICE OF THIS MEETING WAS PERSONALLY CONVEYED TO ME, OF A MEETING BEING SCHEDULED TO BE HELD IN HIS OFFICE--AS PERSONALLY PROMISED BY HIS OFFICE STAFF. DID THEY LIE?

MY QUESTION HAS NEVER CHANGED AND THAT IS: "WHY IS THE CONGRESSMAN HIDING?"
TELL ME WHEN AND WHERE THE MEETING WILL BE HELD FOR NEW BRITAIN SENIORS, EVEN THOUGH I ALREADY HAVE A SUITABLE VENUE PREVIOUSLY ARRANGED, AND I ALONG WITH MANY OTHER SENIOR CITIZENS WILL BE THERE.

I WILL EVEN LEAVE MY KEYBOARD AT HOME SO LONG AS I CAN BRING MY TRUSTY REPORTER'S NOTEBOOK.

The honorable Chris Murphy: Email Response


I just received your email invite to meet you in Waterbury, Danbury and or Washington, Ct. It seems that you are very complacent with the voters of New Britain. Due to the fact that, as covered by the New Britain Herald, you held a town hall type meeting in your office, without any public notice that could be found, with only seven people involved.
What is disturbing to me and many other voters in New Britain is that we have called, written emails and faxes to your New Britain Office only to be told that we will be advised of you’re scheduling for the month of August when available.
Since no call or notice was received from your office regarding the so called town hall meeting held at your office, it does appear that you only invited people that would agree with your public stance, “Despite some people against it, the majority of people that I represent want something to happen” and “we will pass a bill through the house and with Obama’s help, we’ll get the Senate to go along.” Maybe you should listen to members of your own party, as Senator Mary Landriue was quoted today as calling the President's health care plan "immoral!"
It is obvious that you do not want to hear from those that oppose your stance so your invite to the area towns, mentioned above, is unacceptable dawdle.

Sincerely,

Senator Joe Lieberman, How Was Your Taxpayer Funded, 6 Country Junket?


I have reported that Congressman Chris Murphy has been nowhere to be found by his many constituents that have been begging him to visit New Britain during the August recess, but where has Senator Lieberman been during this same period?

While we have no idea where Congressman Murphy has been hiding, according to the Hartford Courant, Senator Lieberman has been travelling with his old buddy Senator John McCain on a 6 country junket that includes stops in Libya, Kuwait, Iraq, Yemen, Afghanistan, and Iceland, yes Iceland!

With a President that is trying to force a government seizure of our health care in this country, was this a productive use of the Senator’s August recess? Do you think he found many answers regarding how to stop this country from being forced into a European socialist style government run health care system that has been an absolute disaster wherever it has been tried?

One thing is for certain, he didn’t have to face many of his constituents in Iceland, did he?

State Representative Tim O’Brien Supports Obama’s Plan for the Government to Run Your Health Care!



EDITORIAL BY: frank smith

Despite the fact that the majority of Americans oppose Obama’s health care plan, State Representative Tim O’Brien was quoted in the Herald today as supporting passage of what he is now calling the “Kennedy Act.”

All of the credible polls show that the majority of Americans oppose Obama’s plan and that the majority of Americans are happy with their current health care and that the majority of Americans are even opposed to the government passing any changes to their health care, and yet Representative O’Brien joins his fellow “elitist” Democrats in ignoring the wishes of the people and supports ramming this massive government power grab down all of our throats. As Ronald Reagan said in 1961, socialized medicine is not about health care, it is about a hidden agenda to transform this country into socialism.

Nothing could be clearer after reading HB3200, Obama’s plan for the federal government to take over the entire health care system in this country. Despite the Democrat’s claims to the contrary, the bill creates a “Health Choices Commissioner” who is nothing more than another Obama Czar, that will have massive powers over you, and your health care and whether or not you even are allowed health care (unless you are an illegal alien and then you are guaranteed free coverage while citizens must pay for their care). The Health Choices Commissioner will have the power to dictate most of your health care decisions, instead of your doctor—if you are even allowed a doctor.

Representative O’Brien is spending his time joining the Democrats in Congress in ignoring the wishes of the people by pledging support for the Kennedy plan—a massive government power grab. I suppose that Representative O’Brien is proud to be making history by being part of the legislative session that has carried this state the longest period in history without a state budget. Instead of running around supporting massive spending and power grabs in Congress, perhaps Representative O’Brien would show true leadership by going back to the legislature and finding ways to cut spending and deliver a budget for our state, but that would go against all of the huge spending increases he has supported and voted for during his tenure in the legislature.

Now is that the kind of leadership we need in City Hall?

DIANGELO TAKES ISSUE WITH THE NEW BRITAIN HERALD EDITORS


To everyone reading Frank's Blog ....I am attaching my Editorial, as the New Britain Herald edited my original letter. Now, an Editorial Page is supposed to be a page were people get to post THEIR thoughts in words, not a page that has the paper decide on how to rewrite your letter. The Herald told me that I was to harsh on our Congressman. You all can decide for yourselves. Shame on the Herald!
Dear Editor,

In a place that is out of touch with Americans and filled with disingenuous people, Washington D.C. is now ruled by a Partisan Queen – Nancy Pelosi. As summer break was approaching, her majesty summoned her fellow Democratic Reps and ordered them to set up Town Hall meetings. They were to be filled with welcoming crowds to hear of her proposals of a Healthcare Bill filled with utopian fantasies.

One of her loyal followers – Congressman Chris Murphy, chose to have his first Town Hall meeting in the idyllic town of Simsbury. As Congressman Murphy arrived on his white stallion paid for by Big Pharma, he began to preach the rehearsed word prepared for him by Queen Pelosi. He was unable to finish his speech, as Aqua Turf wives, old white men, senior citizens and Un-Americans began asking him some tough questions. Alas, poor Congressman Murphy couldn’t give adequate answers, as he did not read the Congressional Health Care proposal, just as he hadn’t read the thousand pages Stimulus Bill. The best that he could do was just to LISTEN to those types of people!

After this first encounter, our Congressman has seemed to have disappeared into the vast hinterlands of the 5th congressional district. Word is that he is waiting for further instructions from his Queen. If you call his office, his loyal staff will tell you that the Congressman is still deciding on whether to host any further Town Hall meetings. Now what can our Congressman be afraid of if he speaks the truth? I am sure that people in his district would welcome the opportunity to face Chris Murphy and tell him exactly how they feel about his health care bill. But where is he?

Is he attending fund-raisers hosted by Big Pharma or is he actually taking the time to read the Stimulus Bill, the Cap and Trade Bill and now the House version of the Healthcare bill. Let’s hope that he isn’t dyslexic or we will never see him again.

So the next time that you get to see Congressman Murphy, just picture Nancy Pelosi in a man’s suit!

MURPHY NEW BRTAIN HEALTH CARE MEETING A SHAM!


CONGRESSMAN PROPOSES ONE HEALTH CARE FOR ALL!

Today’s New Britain Herald reported that Congressman Chris Murphy opened his office doors on Tuesday to “anyone wanting to talk about the problems facing those with too little or no health insurance.” This meeting was a slap in the face to all of you who have been trying to schedule a town hall type meeting with the Congressman to talk about the President’s plan to take over control of health care in this nation. (Murphy listens to local health care woes by James Craven The Herald August 25, 2009).

I personally have faxed, e-mailed and called Congressman Murphy’s New Britain office several times in an effort to set up a town hall meeting for a group of New Britain seniors. The only response I have received are several empty promises made by his staff that someone would get back to me, but no one ever does.

The article quotes 7 people who came to the office, all who have hardship cases that left them without any health insurance. While I sympathize with the situations these individuals face, the article gives the impression (possibly unintentionally) that only 7 people cared enough to attend. I believe that they are the only people invited to the meeting. I know that I was not invited, and I also know several other people who would have been happy to attend, if invited. Since I could find no public posting for the meeting, I can only conclude that the Congressman handpicked only those he wanted to attend who support for the President’s plan for government take-over of health care.

Congressman Murphy is quoted as saying: “We shouldn’t have a two-tier system” and “Poor people shouldn’t get one price attached to their care and rich people another.” I can’t see any way to interpret these two statements to mean anything other than the Congressman supports one nationalized, single-payer system for all—similar to Canada and the United Kingdom.

The article also quotes the Congressman as saying: “Despite some people against it, the majority of people that I represent want something to happen” and “We will pass a bill through the House and with Obama’s help, we’ll get the Senate to go along.”

To make such statements, clearly Congressman Murphy did not listen to the people who confronted him in Simsbury, or he just doesn’t care what the majority of people have to say on the subject. The latest national poll shows people are overwhelmingly against this government run health care with 57% against the President’s plan and only 34% supporting the plan (Think Progress August 19th). Rasmussen, Zogby and Gallup also show that the majority are against this plan, so I wonder where the Congressman gets his polling data?

Perhaps Congressman Murphy would have a better handle on what the people really want if he would accept some of the invitations for town hall meetings, and actually allow the public to attend? Why is he continuing to hide from his constituents?

Legislature Will Vote on Democratic Budget on Thursday - Capitol Watch

Oh Where Oh Where is Congressman Murphy?…




In his letter to the editor published today in The Herald, Craig Diangelo of New Britain raised some valid points regarding Congressman Chris Murphy (Reader: When is Murphy’s next town hall? The Herald, August 25, 2009).

Mr. Diangelo describes the only town hall meeting Congressman Murphy has held during the August recess. As he describes it, the Congressman chose the “idyllic town of Simsbury” where to his surprise; Murphy was confronted by hundreds of those un-American, Astroturf, phony people who had questions too difficult to answer for a Congressman who could only offer the talking points provided him by Nancy Pelosi.

Congressman Murphy was obviously taken by surprise to find a populace that was so well informed that they had obviously read the bill that he hadn’t bothered to read before proclaiming his support for it. The video of that town hall was posted on this site for several weeks so that you, my readers, could witness the great Congressman talking down to his constituents by offering nothing more than his rehearsed propaganda of the party leadership.

What caught my attention about Mr. Diangelo’s letter is that he describes his calls to Murphy’s office inquiring as to when the Congressman may be holding another town hall in his district, only to be told that the Congressman is still deciding if he will even hold more town hall meetings.

I have made several attempts on behalf of a group of senior citizens to arrange for a town hall with the Congressman to be held here in New Britain. The only response I ever receive from the Congressman’s staff is that they will have to get back to me, but that call never comes.

What are you hiding from Congressman Murphy? Are you afraid to face your constituents because you know you are planning to vote for something they overwhelmingly don’t want like the government seizing control of their health care?

Frank Smith, New Britain, Ct.

EDITORIAL


Working Families has Endorsed New Britain Candidates to Elective Offices. This creates the need for extreme caution for our city’s electorate.

Mayoral candidate State Rep. Tim O’Brien was quoted by a local publication as saying this about his endorsement by the Working Families Party “That is why I am proud to accept the Working Families endorsement.”

Others being endorsed are Suzanne Bielinski for town and city clerk, Greg Gerratanna for tax collector, Michael Trueworthy and Paul Catanzaro for alderman at large, Marie Lausch for Alderman in Ward one, and Phil Sherwood for alderman in ward four.
More endorsements are expected to be announced by The Working Families Party soon.

Richard Coe of Discover the Networks stated that the Working Families Party ( WFP) is a front group for the radical cult ACORN. WFP functions as a political party in New York and Connecticut, promoting ACORN-friendly radical candidates. WFP charges its member’s dues, approximately $60, which is a policy of ACORN and its affiliates. Also note that Acorn's Headquarters is located in the same address as the WFP’S, at 88 Third Avenue in Brooklyn New York. Bertha Lewis is the Co-Director of WFP and is the Executive Director of ACORN New York. In Hartford, ACORN and Working Families Party is located in the same office suite and even share the same fax machine, so make no mistake about it, Working Families Party in reality is just ACORN by another name.

By being cross endorsed by the WFP, it demonstrates that these candidates are aligned and dedicated to the radical and socialistic ideology that ACORN and their thug approach of twisting arms of those who dare to oppose their views.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Frank,

Congratulations on your one year anniversary.

No disrespect to the many people who have voiced there opinion on your site, I will only post with my identity attached.

One common thread I have read in many of the comments is how do we change politics in New Britain? Well the election this November is the best opportunity the Voters/Tax Payers have of making a difference in how the City of New Britain continues. One smart man once said there are only two campaigns to be run “Continue the Progress” or “It is time for a change”. New Britain is the exception to this, “Continue the Progress” Re-elect Mayor Stewart and “It is time for a change” remove those members of the Common Council that are not working for the taxpayers but their own political agenda.

There has been numerous times on your Blog that the antics of the members of the Common Council have been documented. Remember who they came from and work for there opponents. Good candidates from both parties are either denied endorsement from the Democratic Town Committee because they are not liberal enough or cannot break the party line vote advantage. The party line lever has been gone for a long time, but busing voters to the polls to vote a party line does both a disservice to the election process and to the taxpayers of New Britain.

Mayor Stewart’s opponent is running a campaign of “It is time for a change” he is partially correct, the change needed is not in the Office of Mayor but on the Legislative side.

Just to be clear, I am supporting Mayor Stewart and the entire Republican slate. I have been with Mayor Stewart since April of 2003, when he decided to run for Mayor. He has a vision for New Britain that he fights everyday to bring forward. His record over the last 3 terms is excellent and New Britain is moving in the right direction.

I offer my help to anyone interested in making a real difference in the City of New Britain this November. I am at Stewart for Mayor Headquarters, 10 Washington Street, New Britain every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evening from 6:00 – 8:00 PM (or later). I can be reached at home 225-4770 or by cell phone 416-2140. Contact me to help make a difference this November.

Thank you
Pete Steele

BEWARE: RADICAL CANDIDATES!


In what was apparently meant to be a proud declaration of endorsement, James Craven of the New Britain Herald recently reported that the Working Families Party has endorsed Mayoral Candidate Tim O'Brien, Town and City Clerk Candidate Suzanne Bielinski, Tax Collector Candidate Greg Gerrantana, Alderman-At-Large Candidates Michael Trueworthy , Paul Catanzaro, Marie Laush for alderman in Ward one, and finally Ward Four Alderman Candidate Phil Sherwood.

According to the political watchdog web site Discoverthenetworks.org, The Working Families Party is a front group of ACORN, is an outgrowth of the socialist New Party, and acts as a political party in Connecticut and New York to run radical candidates who conceal their extremism beneath a veneer of populist rhetoric, promising bread-and-butter issues designed to appeal to union voters. The site quotes Bertha Lewis, who moonlights as both WFP Co-Chair and New York ACORN Executive Director as saying "Candidates know that when they're on our line, they're committed to certain things."

In my opinion it is exactly these radical commitments that should concern each and every one of us. Anyone who would accept the endorsement of such a radical organization is a candidate who has publicly demonstrated a commitment to a radical agenda that in general is pro-government, anti-business, and generally supports the power of government over the power of individual citizens. Accepting this endorsement is a statement that as a candidate, you stand for bigger government, higher taxes, and the so-called nanny state of government controlling all of our lives and providing everything for us from the cradle to the grave, in simpler terms: SOCIALISM.

I believe the best interests of New Britain and America in general would be served by avoiding any candidate that has publicly accepted the endorsement of these radicals. Instead, vote for candidates who support good old fashioned American values.

To my Blog Readers:



Editorial

August 20th. Is the first anniversary of this “BLOG”. The reason for the start of this blog was told to a few friends and someone did blog the information along the way.

When there was a vacancy on the common council because Alderwoman Cruz had moved out of my district, I approached Alderman Sherwood asking to be appointed to the vacancy to replace her. I was immediately advised that I would not fit because I am not Puerto Rican and that this vacancy had to go to a “PUERTO RICAN”.

This blog was started the very next day to show the public how bad the Democratic controlled council has emerged into an ultra liberal organization spending the taxpayer’s money like drunken sailors on shore leave with no regard for our citizens.
Thanks to the input from many of my readers, the site has grown into a public forum for the latest news, local events and political commentary. To date we have celebrated about 208,000 visits to more than 1,200 stories that have been posted on the site and a continuing input of ideas and comments from a constantly growing number of readers.

ARE OUR FEDERAL CT. REPRESENTATIVE HIDING?



EDITORIAL:

Calling the Congressional Representative offices of Chris Murphy on numerous occasions, in order to find out if he plans to hold a Town Hall type of meeting with his New Britain constituents, only to be advised, by his secretary that you will be informed of his “August scheduled”.

The Health Care issue being proposed by the President is very important to the Senior citizens of our state.

With today being August 18, 2009 and still no August schedule. It is apparent that Rep Murphy is hiding just like Senator Lieberman is and these so called Democrats will vote what they want you to have and not want you want them to do for us, and that is why they do not want to hear DIRECTLY from their CONSTITUENTS.

The current polls are showing that seventy five per cent of the voters oppose everything these socialist are doing!

Democratic Town Chairman Supports Childish Behavior!



DTC CHAIRMAN McNAMARRA

EDITORIAL by:FRANK SMITH


In his most recent rant, Democratic Party Chairman John Mc Namara attacked council candidate Don Naples for criticizing the way Alderman Phil Sherwood “taunted” the proposed developers of Pinnacle Heights during the August 4th Planning, Zoning and Housing Committee meeting regarding the proposed development.

During this meeting, Alderman Sherwood was condescending, patronizing and outride rude towards this developer who is planning to invest $5 million into this project. Sherwood demonstrated his total lack of understanding regarding the business world by his insisting that they reveal what tenants the developers are negotiating with--even after being told that this could not be done until the developer takes control of the property. The final insult came when Sherwood smugly asked the developer “Where’s the beef,” a comment that has even been reported in the newspaper.

Sherwood’s comments to this developer were so rude, that the mayor has even been quoted as saying he is embarrassed for the City of New Britain to have to be represented by such unprofessional behavior.

This recent meeting was only the latest incident involving Alderman Sherwood and his rude behavior regarding this investor. The council Democrats scheduled an earlier meeting on July 13th, whereby they were aware that the developer was away on vacation and could not attend. They knew his representatives would not be in attendance several days in advance of the meeting, and yet they continued with the meeting—wasting the time of everyone involved.

With regard to the July 13th meeting, Alderman Sherwood sent an e-mail around to a list of local elected officials whereby he was very critical of both the mayor and the developer. Sherwood made ridiculous statements questioning what kind of developer could afford to invest $5 million, but can’t pay someone to represent them at a meeting during their vacation. Sherwood also criticized the mayor for not representing the developer at this same meeting and even suggested that if the mayor himself could not attend, then the mayor should appoint someone from his office to represent the developer.

Mayor Stewart had already announced during the previous council meeting that the developer would not be available to attend the July 13th meeting and reported that the developer confirmed he would be in attendance at the August 4th meeting.

Sherwood’s own e-mail acknowledging that no one representing the developer would attend this meeting is dated July 9th—so in his own writing he acknowledges 4 days in advance that no one representing the developer would be at the meeting—so who is playing games now?

One could only imagine the personal attacks that would have been launched against the mayor had he accepted Sherwood’s invitation to represent the developer, not to mention the fact that the mayor represents the city, and Sherwood apparently does not understand this would constitute a conflict of interest.

In conclusion, the Democratic Town Chairman apparently encourages such unprofessional conduct by his party’s elected officials, otherwise, why would he be posting comments on his blog that attack anyone that dared to criticize this ridiculous behavior?

Finance director Takes Issue With Council Members Comments

With 17 speakers during the public participation, of the common council meeting held tonight, having many significant comments calling for the return of the Certificate of occupancy to our building codes. The Majority Leader did indicate that this issue would be sent to committee for further review. This was a direct result to the New Britain Herald article of today entitled “ Fight over blight” The Clean and lien resolution being proposed by Alderman Bernacki and Assistant Majority leader Louis Salvio is a direct answer to the needs of effectively collect all the fines due to the city.

Robert Curry, finance director for the city of New Britain took issue with comments made by members of the common council referring to a “conspiracy in the city.”

Adding that these recent statements are a direct insult for the entire finance department.

Public official Nastiness



EDITORIAL

The Clerk of The Common Council, John Melechsinsky, has shown a nasty attitude towards me in a public setting with his usual insulting manner. It must be his loyalty to the ultra liberal Democrats that he enjoys being with.

Sorry John, but I am a conservative Democrat that deplores the fanatic and autocratic philosophy that the Democratic Party has assumed under command of radical extremists. Our Common Council has been hijacked by these ultra liberal spenders that you apparently support in satisfying your party chairman’s dictates. With nasty attitudes like this representing the party leadership, it is no wonder that the people are rising up against this dictator like attitude in cities across the nation.

Alderman Speaks Out

8/9/09


To the Editor:

One would think that when people are elected to a public office, e.g. Common Council in New Britain, those people have a desire to work for the betterment in all forms of the citizens of their community. Elected officials can do this for example by advancing positive suggestions for lowering taxes, improving public education, the general welfare of the community. If there were a better way/suggestion than one that is made, the positive thing to do would be to offer suggestions for improvement. The obverse of this is to offer nothing positive but instead, to obstruct and delay. Not for any other reason than to be politically negative.

This negative behavior has never and can never advance the general welfare; it can only advance the negative feeling of some that all politicians are crooked, etc.

This totally negative behavior is exactly the kind to which Mayor Stewart has been subjected for the past five plus years by Council Democrats especially in the past two years. Especially in the past two years, Council Democrats (with the help of state legislators) have blocked a potential revenue gain of $15 million, they have insulted potential developers, impugned the integrity of NB citizens, they have passed additional ethics and FOI regulations to which they themselves don’t adhere and yet, they accuse the Mayor and others of being dishonest and sneaky.

To do this, some Democrat Council agitators have enlisted the “help” of neighborhood rabble-rousers and deposed and defunct newspaper and other personalities. These mercenaries try to incite/foment trouble in New Britain by circulating damning leaflets and disrupting Council and other public meetings. Others are simply used as Democratic shills to promote doubt.

Again one might say, why do you or anyone allow this unproductive type of behavior to continue? Why? Because the voters elected the evildoers with a supermajority on the Council, Voters need to be more careful and discerning next November!

Mayor Tim Stewart Welcomes Statewide GOP Candidates




story and photos by: Frank Smith


Mayor Tim Stewart delivered the opening remarks on Saturday at the candidate training session held at the headquarters of Connecticut Republicans, located on Ellis Street here in New Britain. Mayor Stewart told the crowd that there is always a personal reason that draws each and every one of us into politics and he went on to explain that his reason was the need to get a handle on taxes. He said “I’m here to hold the line on spending and your taxes.”
The mayor then introduced me to the attendees, explaining that I am a local Democrat who runs a blog that he described as doing a good job keeping the public informed on current events. I felt honored to be a guest at such an event which reminded me how fortunate New Britain is to have been chosen as the headquarters for the state Republican Party.

The day long session, attended by Republican municipal candidates from across Connecticut, included some other prominent Republican speakers including Newington Mayor Jeff Wright, Norwalk Mayor Dick Moccia, and Danbury Mayor Mark Boughton, State Representatives Penny Bacchiochi of Stafford and David Labriola of Naugatuck. All of these elected officials shared one common denominator, and that is that they are Republicans representing districts where Democratic voters make up the majority of voters in their communities (including New Britain).
They shared some interesting insight into how to run a grass roots campaign and even some experiences from past campaigns.

TheDay.com - Republicans cross Rell, say budget needs no tax hikes

K. Crompton of the New London Day

Letter To The Editor by; Unnamed Reader

At least 8 Council Dems and the citizens of NB are subject and subjected to the will and stupidity of people like Mike Trueworthy, Phil Sherwood, Suzanne Bielinski, Greg Gerratana and Larry Hermanowski. The other eight Dems are in some cases, very nice people but simply serve as sure votes. These eight are “bullied by Trueworthy and his five henchmen and women. For example, Mike Trueworthy assumes – has no written authority anywhere - the roles of: leader of Public Participation at Council meetings; leads public hearings at subcommittee meetings even though the committee chairs are there; assumes the role of approving the Council Meeting agenda; runs roughshod over the Council Secretary; bullies city hall personnel especially department heads. As a matter of fact and printed record, the Mayor has had to stop this latter violation. Still, Trueworthy can and does de facto threatening of these people knowing he controls a 13 vote plurality on the Council through the 13 – 2 majority of the the Council Dems. You may why? Why would people allow themselves to be used like that? Think it over, you’ll come up with the answer yourself. Last Tuesday and Wednesday, two Council subcommittees, A,F & Law (Wed.) and, P,Z & Housing (Tues.) met. In each case Democrats impugned the veracity of potential developers and professional people. To what end? To try to embarrass the Mayor !! What was accomplished. Were these actions designed to help NB citizen taxpayers? A potential developer almost left NB holding a $5million bag and a professional auditing firm is in the position of taking legal action against the Common Council/City. In the process, the potential for lowering property taxes and creating jobs diminished. So much for boosting the economy. Obama would be proud. These Council reprobates represent Tim O’Brien, John McNamara, Acorn, Phil Sherwood, Mike Trueworthy Barack Obama, etc. Do you want more of this in November?And lately, these reprobates have enlisted the stupidity of Rick Guinness (“my brain is fried “) and other dusty old clueless Dems to try to help them. Try to find out who’s funding Rick Guinness' profanity laced diatribes against the Mayor and the Minority Leader of the Council. Do voters want this kind of behavior or progress?

Let’s take a close look at who qualifies as “fascists” today...

Believe me, a leftist White House with a leftist congress, leftist courts, leftist academia and leftist press, is a “dictator with complete power.” They are now refusing even to meet with constituents opposed to the very agenda they intend to bulldoze down American throats, in a blatant act of dictatorial tyranny.
We see this in their overt efforts to “forcibly suppress opposition and criticism,” by labeling all honest dissenters “racists” and/or “fascists,” viciously attacking all voices of dissent, even threatening dissenters with charges of “domestic terrorism.”

Hasn’t the Obama administration spent its first six months in power “regimenting all industry and commerce?” Banking, auto manufacturing, energy and health...
Isn’t Obama’s central message on all of it, ”emphasizing an aggressive nationalism,” from nationalized medicine to federally owned and mandated auto manufacturing, control of private energy use, nationalized banking and even nationalized codes on individual conduct and thought patterns?
And hasn’t the left built all of its power on their perfected art of “racial divisions?”

Clearly, the new administration is the epitome of “fascism.” Yet their many minions fail to see the fascism in their leader’s deeds, and project their own fascist use of central power to run roughshod over fellow Americans, upon those who fight against all forms of fascism, both foreign and domestic, with their last breath.

Once again, the left is guilty of that which they accuse their political opponents.

Aldermen Phil Sherwood, Michael Trueworthy: THE ULTIMATE HYPOCRITES!



EDITORIAL


Today The Herald reported that Alderman Phil Sherwood joined Majority Leader Michael Trueworthy in calling for the dismissal of the city’s auditing firm for “failure to follow the rules of the city charter.”

(“Aldermen claim possible auditing conspiracy” Aug 5, by James Craven, Staff Writer).



The article went on to quote Alderman Sherwood as saying that he felt the auditor’s failure to comply with the rules and not sending a representative to answer to this subcommittee had a “conspiratorial feeling” even though he acknowledged that their representative had been on vacation until at least August 2. But what about the conspiracy that Sherwood, Trueworthy, and the rest of the Council Democrats engaged in back in February--when Alderman Catanzaro committed a violation of that same charter right in front of them all.



In fact it was such a serious violation, that the city charter cites it as cause for Catanzaro to be expelled from office as a result. As I have previous reported, the city Ethics Commission, by a unanimous bipartisan vote, found Alderman Catanzaro in violation of the city ethics rules, and issued a recommendation to the council suggesting that he be reprimanded over an issue whereby as an Alderman, he voted against contracting out work by the same city department he works for, requiring the work to be performed by city employees and creating a situation whereby he possibly could have received personal overtime.



At the February council meeting, Alderman Catanzaro spoke against his own Ethics Commission ruling, and then joined his fellow Democrats in voting to reject the commission’s ruling—both in direct violation of the city charter. These actions occurred on the public record, and in the presence of the council members.



Section 4-7 of the city charter states in part: “No member of the Common Council shall be heard to speak upon, nor shall be allowed to vote upon…any matter in which the member has a pecuniary interest.” That same section goes on to state: “Any violation of this provision shall be grounds for expulsion of any member violating the same…”



Alderman Catanzaro committed these violations in the presence of the other Democrats on the council, who were each sworn to uphold the Charter of the City of New Britain, and they have failed to perform their sworn duty by enforcing that section of the charter. The problem is that it is left to the members of the council to enforce charter violations against fellow aldermen, and this council apparently is unwilling to enforce violations committed by members of their own party.



Isn’t it ironic now that an election is approaching, some of these same aldermen profess to be champions of enforcing the charter when they feel it will benefit their own campaign, despite the fact that they are on record as blatantly disregarding charter violations committed by their fellow alderman?



Apparently they believe it is within their discretion to pick and choose what sections of the charter they will enforce without regard for their oath or the law.



Isn’t this the ultimate in hypocrisy?
