The New Britain Democrats have the "Votes"


NEW BRITAIN DEMOCRATS SOUNDLY OVERRIDES THE MAYOR'S VETO RESOLUTION #31338 AT TONIGHT'S COUNCIL MEETING.

The Mayor had cited when issuing his veto message that fairness and transparency was a pivotal role in our democratic process and this resolution singled out Council members who own businesses which is unfair and close to being unconstitutional.

The Democrats, ignoring the Mayor's lengthy veto message, voted to pass the override.

Trueworthy, of all people, is complaining that his wife was brought into this. What? Bernacki and Pabon don't have family? Pa-leeze.

He still has not explained the federal investigation of his "steering" of CDBG monies to his wife's company or his lack of enforcement of the conflict of interest verdict against democrat alderman Paul Catanzaro.

As far as there political games, all 10 democrats should be ashamed of themselves for overriding this shameful, unconstitutional, and ridiculous resaloution! Its discusting and embarissing to the city. I dont see how these people can sleep at night, they must have no clue as to what FOOLS they really are. "

How about the huge campaign donations he accepted from people who stood to receive a benefit from the way the crusades by him and his lapdog Sherwood turned out?

U.S. Supreme Court To Hear Free Speech Case Affecting Connecticut In 10 Days...

HARTFORD – Oral arguments before the United States Supreme Court in McComish v Bennett, an important free speech case concerning taxpayer funded political campaigns, are scheduled for Monday, March 28, 2011.

Underscoring the case’s relevance to Connecticut, Attorney General George Jepsen and former candidate Ned Lamont recently signed onto briefs in the case – albeit on the opposite side of the Yankee Institute, which has been involved in the case since last fall.

“The U.S. Supreme Court accepts less than two percent of cases appealed to it, so the Court’s decision to take this case for review is a big deal with national implications,” said Fergus Cullen, Executive Director of the Yankee Institute for Public Policy, which has filed two amicus briefs in the case.

The first amicus brief, filed last fall, encouraged the court to accept the case for review. The second amicus brief, filed in January, argues the merits of the case.
