Democrats become "Socialist".
FRANKSMITHSAYSNB
EDITORIAL:
The Executive Committee of the National Democratic Committee announced to- day that commencing on January 2015 the organization will be known as the socialist Democratic Committee. Spokesman Debbie Wasserman Schultz said “ This change has been a long time in the Making”. “ We are making this change in solidarity with our brothers in Europe she continued”.

One can only
wonder how many registered Democrats here in New Britain, who may have fled
along with their parents, the socialist run countries in Europe and came to the
USA for the freedom it offers but are now are faced to separating from the Democratic
party due it’s new affiliation with the socialist party.
Will they now
join the Republican, Independent, or the unaffiliated registrations in retaliation
to the Democratic leadership's decision?

The famaous Mrs. Clinton
I am unsure how a woman who has
never started a business, who is famous for being married to Bill Clinton and
who has had a fairly undistinguished career as a public servant could be so
wise about business matters, but I tip my hat to her. People scoffed when she
dared to speak the truth earlier this week that: “Business does not create
jobs.” [sic] But I am a believer.

Alderman Louis Salvio Supports Change to State Representatives..
Currently, New Britain’s State
General Assembly Delegation comprises five delegates, one senator and four
representatives. All five are Democrats, a composition has not changed for over
ten years. Two of our state representatives are shared with neighboring
towns; the 24th. with the town of Newington and the 22nd. with the town of
Plainville.
Under this current delegation, New
Britain’s educational, socio economic and political viability has deteriorated
to the point that it can be considered abysmal and functionally unproductive in
all categories.
The Republican Party of New Britain
offers a slate of young, energetic and active business and professional
candidates who are ready with fresh ideas to offer more than party loyalty to
bring New Britain out of its current state of economic and educational
doldrums. These candidates will act to overcome the Governor’s largest tax
increase in state history and the unprofessional and unethical behaviors of
some of our current state delegation.
The Republican slate includes: Atty.
Gennaro Bizzarro, New Britain’s current Corporation Counsel (24th); Law School
Graduate, Edward Colon (25th); New Britain Business Owner, Piotr (Peter)
Ceglarz (26th). This delegation will offer honest leadership and representation
for ALL the people of New Britain and not simply be beholden to one Political
Party or faction. Please, vote for the people of New Britain, vote for these
fresh capable voices of change, vote against do nothing representatives.
As was said by one writer (source
unknown), “when the party becomes more important than principle, we are in dire
straits, for it reveals that our leaders are incapable or unwilling to think
critically for themselves.”
Lou Salvio, New Britain
NEW POLL: DEMS FARING WORSE THAN 2010
What’s the point of generic ballot poll questions? After all, there are no generic candidates. And that’s precisely how candidates win in difficult environments in this age of nationalized elections. They define their opponents as out of the mainstream and themselves as independent of their own parties. But in the closing days of an election such as this one, there may be no metric more valuable since it is one of the only insights we have into how late-breaking voters will cast their ballots in close contests. If candidates haven’t succeeded in defining those terms by now, especially given the surge in early voting, it is unlikely they will be able to. And if the late breakers go as the new WaPo/ABC News poll suggests, Democrats will be headed to bed early on Nov. 4 while Republicans are uncorking the celebratory champagne. The 6-point advantage for the GOP among likely voters would be enough to flip several toss-up races to Republican candidates and might even be enough to shoo a couple of more elephants into the barn, including Scott Brown in New Hampshire.

The Mayor’s wisdom in raising the Parking rates for the City.
FRANKSMITHSAYSNB
EDITORIAL:
I have
written, in the past, regarding the new rates at the city’s parking meters and garages of two
dollars per hour and three dollars per hour at the court house area.
The mayor has always stated that fair
and balance will be addressed to all residents.
Is this why Broad Street area is not included to have meters?
Is this fare and balance promised by our mayor
for all the citizens of our city to apply in all areas of our city?
When
discussing this unfair approach with a city Alderman he quickly stated that the
lawyers can afford the parking rates by the court house.
This of course explains the mind set by our membership
of the common council, showing the disregard for the person that was served a
summons to appear in court, who could not pay the applicable fine and placed
under arrest. Without mentioning that his/her car also being towed away while
being incarcerated.
I personally
applaud the only council member, Michael Trueworthy, who voted against this
issue with his seeing the adversity as being anti-business friendly.
NEW BRITAIN CITY DEMOCRATS IGNORE CITIZENS EXPOSTULATION.
FRANKSMITHSAYSNB
EDITORIAL:
With the
adverse actions by Alderman Michael Trueworthy at the Mayor’s office, in a
drunk rampage, and subsequently at a local business establishment resulting
with his “gay bashing” was certainly sufficient reason for his removal from the
City Common Council and urging him to seek proper medical help for his malady,
but he continues to occupy his council seat.
With his replacement,
as Pro Tem, Alderperson Susan Bielinski is refusing to step down from her post subsequent
to being ordered to do so by the City’s Civil Service Commission Hearing with
her immediately appealing the commission’s findings which will serve as a legal
maneuver, to which she is entitled, until the next city’s election cycle.
We all remember
a similar civil service commission finding, being ignored by the common council
Democratic leadership. Resulting with its
chairman resigning his post who was also a former Mayor of our great City.
New Britain Politics gets polluted By The DTC Chair.
With the DTC
Chairman, John McNamara, filing a complaint with the state elections commission
as reported. in today’s New Britain Herald, against the Connecticut Property
Owners Alliance political action committee.
With the Chairman claiming it was a well-financed and vicious campaign
to unseat Former Mayor Tim O’Brien by Sam Zherka of New York, a local property
owner.
The Ct. CPOA
leadership called it another attempt in harassing his group for standing up for
the New Britain property owners and will be seeking a legal recourse against
the chairman of the NBDTC.
The Battle
was over O’Brien’s proposed absentee landlords fees and electing his replacement
“Erin Stewart”.

CRUZ LOOKS BEYOND MIDTERMS
Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, is laying out his vision for what
Republican priorities should be if they wrest control of the Senate come
November. Cruz writes in a USA Today OpEd:
“Republicans — poised to take control of Congress — should set our sights on
three big goals to make Americans feel confident in their futures once again:
jumpstart the economy, safeguard constitutional liberties, and strengthen our
national security.” The Texas Senator goes on to outline “ten critical
priorities for the 2015 Congress” which include embracing a pro-growth agenda,
repealing ObamaCare, stopping amnesty while securing the border, reining in
judicial activism, battling corruption, tax reform, a balanced-budget amendment
and repealing Common Core.

White House Allowing Ebola illneses to enter Our Cities
Has America passed the point of
no-return where dying cultures arrive when their internal logic and external
conversations descends into illiteracy, and then madness? Perhaps. For example,
how is it possible that persons fresh from the site of outbreak of one of the
world’s worst viruses, simply walk off airplanes into American cities? Or,
consider the dangerous, utterly indefensible policy of allowing the border to
stay open, and illegal entries to cross, allowed to stay, even when criminal
convictions for violent crimes are proved.

Little Poem, so true it hurts! By: Ed & Joan Mercier
Another year has passed
And we're all a little older. Last summer felt much hotter, And winter seems much colder. There was a time not long ago When life was quite a blast. Now I fully understand About 'Living in the Past' We used to go to weddings, Football games and lunches. Now we go to funeral homes And after-funeral brunches.
We used to have
hangovers,
From parties that were
crazy.
Now we suffer body
aches,
We're sleepy and we're
lazy.
We used to go out
dining,
And couldn't get our fill. Now we ask for doggie bags, Come home and take a pill.
We used to often
travel
To places near and far. Now we get sore asses From riding in the car.
We used to go to
nightclubs
And drink a little booze. Now we stay home at night And watch the evening news. That, my friend is how life is, And now my tale is told. So, enjoy each day and live it up... Before you're too damned old. |

PRESSURE GROWS FOR TRAVEL BAN, FRIEDEN OUSTER
With a new poll showing that 60 percent of voters (including 57 percent of Democrats) favor the idea of banning travel to the United States by those in the Ebola hot zone in West Africa, how long can the Obama administration hold the line? The issue of a travel ban took center stage in key Senate debates in Kansas and Colorado on Wednesday night and is sure to stay front and center as a dozen or more contested Senate races rage into their final days. The administration’s decision is hard to defend and easy to attack, especially compared to convoluted claims Democrats have been making about funding caps.

workers is doing well, and the other flew to Cleveland before she was visibly

Apparently, Alderman Michael Trueworthy has learned nothing
about controlling his tendency for making inappropriate and unprofessional
comments, in this case, toward the owner of a firm seeking to do business with
the City. During the discussion
regarding outsourcing of the city's Workers' Compensation Claims to a private
firm, Mike Trueworthy was questioning the firm's owner about the cost to the
city of his service. After a few
nonsensical questions, Trueworthy turned in the direction of the Mayor and
said, [ all this money for flipping paper.] He should have been called,
"out of order." By Mayor Stewart; Trueworthy then sat down, abruptly.
Supposedly. Trueworthy is getting professional help for
controlling his inappropriate behaviors.
It appears to me, that Mike is getting no benefit from this so called
"help."
Editor's Note::Obama's Real Plan Is to Destroy the Republican Party /Immigrants in US at All-Time High
Newly released figures show that the U.S. immigrant population grew by 1.4 million from July 2010 to the middle of last year, reaching a record 41.3 million in July 2013.
About 3.3 million new immigrants settled in the United States in that period, but the number was offset by deaths and return immigration among the existing population.
The 41.3 million figure was double the number in 1990, nearly triple the number in 1980, and more than quadruple the figure in 1970, when it stood at 9.6 million, according to the data from the Census Bureau's latest American Community Survey.
Immigrants — all those in the country who were not U.S. citizens at birth, including illegal immigrants — comprised 13.1 percent of all U.S. residents last year, the highest percentage in 93 years, the Center for Immigration Studies noted.
As recently as 1980, the figure was just 6.2 percent.
The largest number of immigrants in the country in 2013 originally came from Mexico, 11.58 million, but that was down by 126,126 since 2010.
The region showing the greatest growth in U.S. immigration from 2010 to 2013 was South Asia, with 372,546 new immigrants, including 254,355 from India, bringing the total number of immigrants from that region to 2.71 million.
In raw numbers, the largest number of immigrants in the country last year came from East Asia, 7.88 million, including 2.38 million from China and more than a million each from Korea and Vietnam.
There were 3.9 million immigrants from the Caribbean last year, including 1.14 from Cuba and 991,046 from the Dominican Republic.
About 3.16 million immigrants from Central America were in the country, including 1.25 million from El Salvador and 902,293 from Guatemala.
The greatest share of the 2.76 million immigrants from South America were from Colombia, 677,231.
The U.S. was home to 1.81 million immigrants from the Middle East, with the largest number — 363,972 — from Iran.
There were also 4.88 million immigrants from Europe, 1.5 million from Sub-Saharan Africa, and 846,921 from Canada.
California was home to more immigrants last year than any other state, 10.31 million, followed by Texas with 4.36 million.
But the state with the largest percentage growth in its immigrant population from 2010 to 2013 was North Dakota, 27 percent.

The Bielinski issues.
FRANKSMITHSAYSNB
EDITORIAL:
In March of 2014, Alderman
Lou Salvio filed a Civil Service complaint against Alderwoman and then Majority
Leader of the Common Council, Suzanne Bielinski alleging that Bielinski
spearheaded a plot to create a Classified Service position for her niece by marriage, Jessica
Gerratana. In doing so Salvio alleges that Bielinski, sister of State Senator
Terry Gerratana violated Section 4-9 of the City Charter, several sections of
the Code of Ordinances ( Section on Administration) and the Rules of the New
Britain Civil Service Department ( Merit Rules).
It took a little over 7
months after the filing of the complaint for the Civil Service Commission (CSC)
to hold its final meeting and render a decision on October 6, 2014.
Five unpaid volunteer
electors of the City from both major parties comprise the CSC. They give
willingly of their time without fanfare in helping the City. All this not withstanding
and after spending hours during those 7 months poring over evidentiary materials,
lawyers for Bielinski and Gerratana as well as Gerratana and Bielinski
themselves took turns making summation statements
that in my opinion, did little else other than to vilify the CSC, Civil Service
Rules, Lou Salvio , witnesses and insisted that the entire process was
politically motivated. In one of her comments, Bielinski insinuated that one
witness tried to curry favor with the current Mayor Stewart by sending her a
flower arrangement after she was elected Mayor. Lawyers especially should act
professionally and refrain from disparaging comments. As two of the lawyers walked
out of the hearing they were heard to say that the entire process and these
hearings amounted to “ A JOKE!” HOW DO
YOU FEEL IF YOU ARE A COMMISSIONER AND HAD TO HEAR THAT? It amounts to buffoonery
from two members of the Connecticut Bar !
The readers of this article
must realize this whole debacle took place while Tim O’Brien was Mayor and
while there were 13 Democrats on the Council. It is in my opinion a clear case of nepotism revealed.The
current CSC was not involved nor were the current Mayor, any of her staff,
Alderman Salvio or the Corporation Council.
The league of women voters forum held this past week.
Many of the attendees,
during coffee breaks, disgust their disappointments that their written questions
were not asked by the league.

control by the league ignoring concerns of wanting questions like; how many

towns and cities?

Have Democrats Become The Homophobic Party?
FRANKSMITHSAYSNB
EDITORIAL:
Perhaps when Alderman
Trueworthy attacked 2 gay men who happen to own a business in New Britain and
pay taxes in this city, he was simply following the lead of the governor
he no doubt idolizes? Just yesterday during the debate with Tom Foley,
Governor Malloy called conservatives who happen to disagree with his policies
"right wing tea baggers." So now if you just disagree with
Malloy's policies, Malloy viciously attacks you by calling you a vile
slang term that refers to a specific homosexual sex act. I guess we
all now know how Governor Malloy really feels about homosexuals which is
apparently consistent with Alderman Trueworthy's feelings as he demonstrated in
that bar that night. I suppose Malloy is free to ridicule and insult
gay men all he wants, because they will no doubt still vote for him since all
that ever seems to matter to such liberal groups is the "D" next to a
candidate's name no matter how much that candidate may personally despise them
as demonstrated through his comparing them to a group of Republicans which we
all know Malloy despises as the lowest form of life on earth. The only
question left is whether Malloy feels that Republicans or homosexuals (tea
baggers as he called them) are the lower form of life. One thing is
certain, we will never know the real truth because we would have to rely
on Malloy to tell us the truth.For those of you who don't know the definition of "tea bagging" here it is:
"Teabagger" is yet another shining example of "civil discourse" by left wingers in America.
The etymology of the word "teabagging" involves a slang term originating in American homosexual subculture involving a specific (typically humiliating based on context) sexual activity between two homosexual males. I won't bother going into clinical details. The term first entered popular culture via a gay bar scene in a 1998 comedy/drama movie called "Pecker" and then video game players imitating the act (politics.stackexchange.com).

Congratualtions New Britain: You're in 3rd Place!
FRANKSMITHSAYSNB
EDITORIAL:
The tax rates have now been set for towns and cities across
Connecticut and New Britain is in 3rd place with the 3rd highest taxes in the
state!
New Britain's mill rate of 49.0 is below that of only 2
other cities: Hartford is in first place at 74.29 and Waterbury is
in second place at 58.22!
The natural thing to do would be to blame Mayor Erin
Stewart for this horrific placing of having one of the highest tax rates
in the state, but it is simply not her fault. This high tax
rate is the direct result of the wild and out of control spending of
the former mayor, Tim O'Brien. It doesn't take long for things like
$100,000 consulting fee to one of Governor Malloy's former staff
members, tens of thousands for a contract to a former
state representative with no specific known duties or responsibilities to
fulfill for the lucrative payments, or a $45,000 a year paid agitator
called a "community organizer" in the mayor's office to add up and
require higher taxes to pay for all that wild spending for cronies of the
former mayor.
Mayor Stewart inherited this mess and now the rest of us
must pay for the previous 2 years of gross mismanagement in city hall.

Barack Hussein Obama stole a country when he emerged from the shadows and in
Hollywood style gained the Oval Office as prize with no credentials, no
expertise of any kind other than that of on the streets of Chicago, public-funded
rabble rousing.

Alderman Louis Salvio Objects To The Court Injuctions fillings Against Costco Construction by Resident
The City of New Britain is dire
trouble in a number of ways, all of which contribute to a very difficult
economic situation facing taxpayers and none of which can be said to be the
fault of any one particular person or political group. The fault (s) lie (s) in
the accumulation of mistakes made in reading economical trends and poorly
thought out solutions to trying to
fix mistakes.
New Britain is land poor, only 13.4
square miles; as such there is precious little space to offer businesses in the
way of developers looking to open businesses.There is a plethora of multifamily
housing built up around the major factories in the center of town and in the
center of all that, what was once a thriving, vibrant and bustling Central
Business District (CBD).The factories and the CBD are gone for the most part,
leaving all the multifamily housing loaded with people that have few places to
employ them, people with little disposable income to spend and fewer places
close by at which to buy things. The city’s grand list decreases, people move out of
town and what is left is a city that does not have the wherewithal to support
ever growing educational mandates, ever growing infrastructure problems ever
growing public safety problems, health problems, etc, in other words, a dying
city.
What to do? A huge company (COSTCO)
comes to town with a proposal to build a huge store. But we have no place to
offer for such a huge store; they ask for permission to use a portion of the
Stanley Golf Course for their store; they will replace the golf course land
with adjacent state-Town of Newington land and reconfigure the golf course.
Briefly, after four years of planning and after all the approvals are in place,
and after the Common Council votes 12-3 to approve the plan, along comes Elaine
Lechowicz and says this is all wrong, we must not violate the Stanley Trust - a
Trust that has been violated many times in the past - and rape park land. She
files one “injunction/appeal/reconsideration after another to satisfy
what? The park land has been replaced, the golfers are satisfied, the
city is satisfied and the non resident college professors at CCSU are not
objecting. However, Elaine wants her way.
The state and the city lose
potential, direly needed jobs, the city loses tax income the potential
employees lose pay checks. But, Elaine Lechowicz is smug and happy. I find it
hard to imagine that Alex Stanley would have agreed with Elaine Lechowicz. In
my opinion, this action by Elaine Lechowicz does not promote the general
welfare, is selfish and punitive.
