THIS LETTER APPEARED IN TODAY'S NEW BRITAIN CITY JOURNAL AND I HAVE RECEIVED PERMISSION FROM ITS EDITOR, Ms. ROBIN VINCI, TO RE-PRODUCE IT ONTO FRANK SMITH SAYS NB.
NEW BRITAIN DEMOCRATIC PARTY'S OWN DILEMMA!
First of all we should begin with the Democratic mayoral primary race whereby Paul Catanzaro noted many factual comments against his opponent Tim O'Brien's voting record such as: voted to raise your income taxes, voted to raise your sales tax, voted to cut your deduction for property tax, voted for extra NEW taxes on clothes, and shoes under $50 but claims to help the poor that he hurt with these new taxes.
Catanzaro further attacked O'Brien's claims to be an advocate for campaign reform, but Lobbyists make up the majority of his campaign funding, also claiming that he is an advocate for job creation and economic development with his strongly opposing the Costco store in New Britain which will add 220 jobs with the much needed income for New Britain. We can also recall his picketing the Wal-Mart store forcing them to leave New Britain causing a loss of 150 jobs and most recently he picketed the Hospital for Special Care pushing the union agenda against the interests of a taxpaying employer.
Catanzaro's called attention to that fact that O'Brien is a ten year professional politician and has not initiated any major legislation to benefit New Britain, instead claiming credit for work done by the state senator, simply by signing onto the bills created by the senator.
I personally agree with Paul's accusations and I personally feel that O'Brien's effort to become the mayor of our city with Bertha Lewis' Working Family Party Loons with her endorsement of candidate O'Brien recalling that Bertha is also one of the founders of the infamous "Acorn" organization.
With regard to Management negotiations, O'Brien knows or should have known it starts at the bargaining table and not in the streets as in the case of Wal-Mart and the Brittany Farms Health Care.
Obrien continued his hard work with senator DeFronzo by their placing a roadblock to the Quarry deal which cost the city taxpayers $15 Million dollars.
He is a mayoral candidate that wants to become New Britain's Mayor that has a proven record of accomplishing nothing but continues to forge ahead fostering his "Socialistic Agenda" that is guaranteed to hurt New Britain's progress and destroy its image.
Sending a clear message to business owners and employers that New Britain is a city to be avoided at all cost.

OPINION: The "Occupy Wall Street" movement and its offshoots in a growing number of American cities, including Hartford CT, ought to consolidate its message - by going and occupying Washington, D.C.- imagine, 500,000 or a million people on the Mall shouting "pass the jobs bill".
The jobs bill would be nothing more than another socialist failure.
Anyone who thinks it is the government's place to create jobs is simply un-American.
I think that putting O'Brien in the Mayor's Office would be like turning the keys to the city over to Big Burtha and her acorn radicals.
