It's Official, Louise Smith May Be Recalled With Mayor Barrie Tilghman
While we met at 300 W. Main St. in Downtown Salisbury this morning, a small group got together to discuss where to go next. However, there was a pleasant twist to the equation, Louise Smith.
Citizens have been completely frustrated with Ms. Accountability and the lack thereof, therefore she too may be recalled.
Barrie Tilghman and her minions from the Anti Albero Blogs tried all they could to have the meeting stopped today by contacting the Fire Marshall but were not successful. Oh, they showed up but for some reason they were simply too late. LMAO!
OK, so here's the big news on top of what I've already mentioned. This Student Jordan Reisman is smarter than the average bear! You see, he already has around 2,500 Students willing to register in Salisbury with thousands of others interested. Some are concerned that many, if not almost all of them will not be here when it comes time to vote. HOWEVER, there's something called an absentee ballot and they're way ahead of everyone.
COULD SU STUDENT OVERPOWER THE CITY OF SALISBURY? OMG, yes they can! I mentioned this many months ago, this was something to fear. Comegys and the Tilghman people/supporters through the Landlords scared the living crap out of the Students and they LIED to them. Well, paybacks are hell.
This thing could happen overnight Ladies & Gentlemen, with Students alone. The question is, will they step forward for the good of the City? Mike Dunn has been harassing Jordan, calling him and giving him crap about what this will cost the Taxpayers of Salisbury. Hell Mike, I cost the City more than that in the Zoo alone! Of course, it made things better for the River so they couldn't pollute it any more.
Now let's look at this 14% Tax Increase that wasn't necessary and Barrie Tilghman's attempt to raise the water and sewer fund while they had $8,800,000.00 floating around in an account they just happened to FIND after Councilwoman Campbell challenged them. Then the Mayor STILL wanted to keep the increase anyway.
Take away that 14% Tax Increase and the Mayor and Jordan just saved the Taxpayers how much money? That's about $5,800,000.00 in SAVINGS, YOU IDIOT! Mike Dunn is a clueless Idiot who will go to any extreme to save his a$$ with this Mayor. Could we get a forensic auditor at that point to start looking at the books? My guess is, YES!
We met today to decide if some of us are going to support this effort and the answer for me is, YES. I don't care if the Mayor will get kicked out 6 months early or not. The point here is, this is a grassroots effort to show people ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. Why that would discourage anyone from signing it is simply stupid. IMO, you either support a recall, or you don't. Timing means nothing. The City AND Wicomico County is out of control.
I commend Jordan, but it is a sad commentary that a college student is more willing to do this than a life-long community member and voter. Are the rest of us just too tired or too lazy? If this was not a college town, would we sit back and let Barrie run us? Thank goodness someone has some guts.
ReplyDeleteJoe, this student has to watch his back at the university. The powers to be will be against this and assholes like Mike Dunn that throws paper in an old woman's face will use his work place at the university to discredit the student if he can.If he does anything while working I AM GONNA FLOOD MY REPRESNTATIVES with calls, mail,@e-mails to complain about using taxpapers money while working and the equipment in his office.
ReplyDeleteJoe what happened with the Fire marshall at your building? Are you able to say whats going on with your legal suits with the Mare and Webster? I guess I would love to throw 100% support behind these students but am not supportive of repealing the 4-2 in strictly residential zoning. I mean there are already too many exemptions that were given after the fact by Richard Insley as it is. No enforcement either, so if the students push to over run the last owner occupied areas it will be a free for all for the slumlords. I can't supoort that at all.
ReplyDeleteI say you guys "Go Get Them" enough is enough for Salisbury!If it has to be done by the students then life long community members then so be it...they are very much a part of Salisbury as anyone else...just watch your backs...crooked is as crooked does!
ReplyDeleteGood to know an SU student has enough guts to fight the system that caused them problems recently and are causing the people of this city more grief than the law allows. Great that Jordan has included Louise in the recall try.
ReplyDeleteCouldn't he include the VP also, you know, Mr. "C"?

ReplyDeleteI contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle. -Winston Churchill
Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys. -P.J. O'Rourke
Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it. -Ronald Reagan (1986)
Just because you do not take an interest in politics doesn't mean politics won't take an interest in you!
