  1. It was reported in the Hartford Advocate that one of the Police Mounted Horse's did his duty at the same spot where O'Briens wife and the 12 others protesters were sitting, mixture of both Liquid and Solid Horse Manure?

    Horse Poop/Hartford I-84 Ramp/It's No Joke.

    "A lot of people don't really think about what to do until it becomes a problem," said Jenifer Nadeau, an associate professor at the University of Connecticut and an equine extension specialist.

    That's exactly the kind of horse poop that makes folks who worry about water quality cringe. If not handled properly, those piles can easily wash there damaging nitrogen and other contaminants into the ground or nearest water body.

  3. Hardware City horse apples. This is no joke?

    The furor over the proposed Costco warehouse in New Britain becomes more interesting when put in the context of what's not being proposed near Route 9 in the Hardware City. And people who think that's a horse-bleep project should consider the outrage environmentalists are cooking up, and how it relates to the Costco plan and Connecticut's moribund economy.

    Costco is prepared to invest $30 million to create 220 jobs and generate $600,000 in new tax revenues for cash-strapped New Britain, but its plan requires changing the layout of a golf course.

    Besides proclaiming the sanctity of local parks, opponents have trotted out the usual litany of quality-of-life complaints in hopes of driving off the latest prospective employer Costco from their city, which sports an current 11.9 percent unemployment rate.

  4. It drives me crazy that she is holding a sign demanding jobs when it is her husband and his current slate that has slowed job growth in New Britain. We will probably lose Costco to these 2 knuckleheads. Hundreds of jobs lost to working class people. And hundreds of thousands of tax dollars.

    AND NOW, WE HAVE MAYOR O'BRIEN AND COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR PHIL SHERWOOD TO HELP DAVE DEFRONZO, EVA MAGNUSZEWSKI, LARRY HERMANOWSKI AND MIKE TRUEWORTHY TO HELP THEM CHASE COSTCO OUT OF TOWN.

    O'Brien was against Costco from the beginning and he, helped Sherwood chase WalMart out of town. Now that he is communications directior, perhaps Sherwood could demonstrate his communications expertise and reprise his performance with a potential developer of the Pinnacle Heights property when he so eloquently asked the developer, " WHERE'S THE BEEF?"

    TURNS OUT, THAT WAS THE SAME DEVELOPER THAT DEVELOPED TARGET! BETTER BE CAREFUL THIS TIME FOLKS.

    And what about the successful Democrats who won their elections on 11/8/? Will they be allowed to get away with that feat?

    NOW, IT TURNS OUT THAT TAX DODGER AND DESK RIFLER RICK LOPES OR MIKE TRUEWORTHY WANT O'BRIEN'S LEGISLATIVE SEAT. WHAT A MESS! AND DON'T FORGET FOLKS, IF TRUEWORTHY WINS HE'S NOT REQUIRED TO RELINQUISH HIS SEAT ON THE COUNCIL. WERE I A VOTER IN THE 24TH AND THOSE WERE THE CHOICES, I'D SOONER EAT LINT!

    NOW CAN I GET AN AMEN?

  10. AMEN to Lou Salvio for his comments.
    I hope he submits these comments, as is, in the form of a letter to the editor, both the Herald and the Courant.

    It appears that the thought above is incomplete. The feat I forgot to mention was that some successful Dem candidates still owe property tax monies to the City, an Alderman and a Constable. In a few months they will receive budgets from city departments to "judge." Ironic , isn't it? But, the "people" have spoken!

    Can I get another AMEN?!

  14. HARTFORD- December 1, 2010- State Senator Questions Busway Project.

    Among the projects that needs a second look: the New Britain busway, Sen. Donald DeFronzo, D-New Britain, said. A number of different projects have to come in for additional scrutiny. We won't have the money to fund everything, so we'll have to prioritize, he said. That means the state must consider more reductions, DeFronzo said.

    But, former NB Britain Mayor Tim Stewart has consistently said it's a component of the plan to revitalize the city's downtown, and most of the New Britain's legislative delegation has supported it. But DeFronzo, along with several Bristol-area lawmakers and Rep. David McCluskey, D- West Hartford, have said the 9.6-mile bus-only highway is too expensive to build.

    DOT projects that 15,000 people a day will use the busway, alleviating some of the rush-hour congestion on I-84 between West Hartford, New Britain,etc. and Hartford.

  15. 11/21/11 - Busway Gains Crucial Federal Funding.

    Governor Malloy, Federal Transit Chief Sign $275 Million Deal For I-84 Mass Transit Project.

  16. When Malloy took office, two of the Democratic legislators most knowledgeable about transportation — then-Sen. Donald DeFronzo and then-Rep. David McCluskey — were publicly deriding the busway as an outdated idea with ballooning costs and a fuzzy budget. They instead supported using the identical route for a commuter rail line that could be extended through Bristol to connect with Metro-North's route in Waterbury.

    Regional planning agencies, the cities of Hartford and New Britain, and a series of business, labor, transit and environmental groups endorsed the busway. Gov. Malloy this spring concluded that the state would build it — and spend $112 million of its own money toward the work.

  18. If you were there protesting big corporations and yet you own stock in one of the biggest, say Apple Computer, would that make you a phony?

  22. Frank:
    In today's Herald (11/23), Marie Lausch (NBPD dispatcher) defends Mayor O'Brien's wife (Rhona Cohen O'Brien) who was arrested recently in Hartford at an "Occupy" sit in. Marie says that Cohen's action is an example of civil disobedience. What is Lausch thinking?

    What is the nature of the "wrong" against which Cohen is protesting that will be solved by sitting down on and blocking an exit ramp of a major highway and then asking to be arrested? Lausch is defending stupidity, pure and simple.

  23. Am I understanding that if such an incident were to happen here in New Britain and you called the police, you might be met with hostility from a dispatcher who agrees with their anti-American demonstrations? Is that the message being sent here?

  24. A common question being raised on radio call in shows is what did these people hope to accomplish by inconveniencing regular working class people trying to get home from work or on their way to work by blocking the road? The only thing I can think of is that I would be surprised if many of these people knew what an honest day's work was, so maybe they just wanted to punish people for actually working for a living and paying their taxes?

  28. A police dispatcher who publicly endorses the blocking of traffic should be fired immediately for doing so.
