Mayoral Candidate Mike Della Penna Writes A Letter To The Editor, ME!
"Joe, lets see if you have the balls to publish this. It seems to me that you have the gall to write about someone with out even knowing anything about them. What have you done for Salisbury, or Wicomico Co. for that matter? How can you call yourself unbiased this is a joke in itself. As fr as me not being a viable candidate to run for the mayor of Salisbury, tell me how qualified are you? I do not need to go to the meetings to know what this city needs it needs a new government core from the mayor on down except for Debbi Campbell. At least I want to see and make changes for the betterment of Salisbury not just6 government as usual. I do work for a living and no it is not as a pizza dilevery man and so what if it was at least it is an honest and good clean job. But if you wish to speak with me directly you can contact me at Sherwood of Salisbury 410-749-1301 ex 1214. or 410-845-1934. I am available to anyone to answer any questions anytime. My web site is MikeforMayor.net.
I have tried to publish this with my user name and password but it wont let me so I have to do it anonymous."
Dear Mike:
Well, your campaign should be short lived at this point. ONE of the things a Mayor needs to have is a back bone. We already have a Mayor in Office who can't handle the heat from outsiders, thanks for proving how you'll respond under even minimal pressure.
You DO have to attend meetings to learn just who you'd be working with and get to know how the system works. You know, kinda like having to read maps to know exactly where to deliver your next slice of Pizza.
There's this thing called spell check. I know it might be difficult for you to obtain but every computer I've ever seen has it. You should try it some time, it works well. I shouldn't speak too much because I make my fair share of mistakes but then again, I'm not running for Mayor of a City I know nothing about, like you.
Using "feel good" statements is an easy thing Mikey. You know, like, "make changes for the betterment of Salisbury not just6 government as usual." Well, you got my vote. NOT!
As for what I've done for Salisbury or Wicomico County. Well Mikey, first of all, I own 15 properties in Wicomico County & Salisbury. You see Mikey, I pay taxes in both the County and City. Not rent, like you. I also run a FREE Blog 16 hours a day, 7 days a week. You see Mikey, I attend meetings both in the City and in the County and like it or not I am respected by many thousands of people within. Oh sure, I've made my fair share of enemies but let me assure you, there's a thousand to one friends verses enemies.
You should be far more careful in the future as to who you choose to screw with because I can say this very boldly, you just lost any shot of getting even close to having a shot at being Mayor.
As for my having balls. Well Mikey, you haven't followed my Blog for very long because I am told I have a set bigger than the size of Texas. Just ask Mayor Tilghman, Chiefy Webster, Deputy Chiefy Gordy and Chiefy See and their lawyers.
You have a nice day there Mikey. Game Over!

Salisbury Maryland Kennel Club Dog Show
Judge Carol Noe and CH Lamplighters Bingo, Best In ShowThere will be three (3) days of dog shows at the Civic Center on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Nov 7, 8 & 9. Each day is a completely separate dog show and has no dependence on the other two. There are 789 dogs entered on Friday, 1,070 on Saturday and 1,016 on Sunday. There is a $5.00 admission fee (Students $1.00.) Please also note that unentered animals are not allowed at the shows.
The Salisbury MD Kennel Club was incorporated in 1954 for the purpose of furthering an interest in pure-bred dogs in our community. We are IRS-approved non-profit, with an all volunteer membership. This will be our 55th year of service to our community.
A portion of our profits from operations has been regularly donated to local support of dog-related projects. Our continuing project is to equip as many of the police K-9's on the lower shore as possible with safety bullet-proof vests. We held dog training classes year round at our former training center on S. Division Street. We have now completed a new 8,000 square feet building on the property at 31663 Winterplace Parkway (near the Perdue Stadium), hoping to expand our activities and bring more tourism dollars to the area.
The Mispillion Kennel Club of Delaware moved their show to the Civic Center several years ago and will be the host for the Sunday, Nov 9th dog show, giving an additional economic boost to our area.
We will appreciate your attendance and support to help make our shows successful.

Frank Kratovil - A Tough Prosectuor Who Takes Money From Defense Attorneys?
Frank Kratovil has based his campaign on two tag lines:
How tough a prosecutor is he?
He's certainly not very tough on child molesters. Robert Wayne Dwyer was charged with 17 counts of child sexual offenses. Kratovil declined to prosecute 15 of those counts (Case No. 17K07006775) and Dwyer is now free and able to troll for more victims.
How about burglars?
Donna Ann Jones was charged with 14 counts of burglary (Case No. 0M00014525). Jones' lawyer, Richard M. Karceski donated to Kratovil's campaign in December, 2007. In February, 2008 Kratovil dropped 12 of those counts and Jones received a slap on the wrist. Since then, Karceski donated again to Kratovil's campaign ... and Jones has violated her parole.
Kratovil has taken over $100,000 from criminal defense attorneys. Many of these attorneys have cases against Kratovil's office in Queen Anne's County.
When Kratovil was asked asked about his prosecutorial record at a recent debate, Kratovil's supporters simply shouted down Maryland Sen. Andy Harris and Kratovil dodged the question.
Yes Frank. That's what elections are about; the opportunity to ask questions of candidates and expect answers.
Are you going to answer the question Frank? The voters of Maryland's First District deserve an answer.
We want to thank "ShoreIndie" for kindly posting this video on YouTube. While he, like his pal Frank Kratovil, may want to sweep this under the rug by claiming that it's "baseless", the record speaks for itself.

First Congressional Candidate Forum
"Joe,
I was at the First Congressional Candidate Forum held at Wye Mills yesterday and I just wanted to share a few observations with you and your readers.
This was a well run forum and the questions were fair. I applaud the League of Women Voters for a "Job Well Done."
On the economy:
Andy Harris believes that lower taxes and limiting government spending is the best way to stimulate small, medium and large business and create jobs.
Frank Krarovil thinks that government regulation is the answer.
Bailout:
Frank supports the bailout and thinks that even though it didn't work, he would support a second bailout.
Andy was against the first bailout and does not support another bailout attempt by the government. Andy feels that government is often times the cause of the problem, not the solution.
Environment:
Frank supports costly state laws that hurt our local economy and drive business to neighboring states.
Andy supports a regional approach to include all states that border the Chesapeake Bay watershed.
2nd Amendment:
Andy is endorsed by the NRA
Frank is not.
The choice is clear. If you want a tax and spend liberal vote for Frank Kratovil.
If you want smaller government and no new taxes vote for the conservative Andy Harris.
Thanks,
Nick"
Breaking News: Kid Shoots Out Window Of School Bus This Morning
Kids were being picked up and riding on the School Bus this morning when a kid used an alleged BB Gun to shoot at the School Bus with children inside and shattered one, (possibly more) of the windows. This was in the Indian River School District. The information is just coming in so I don't have all the details yet but the Police did catch the young person who shot at the bus and they were arrested.
Haunted Houses
"Hey Joe,
Some freinds and us want to go out to some haunted houses or a forest tonight. Is there any way you can ask on you site if there are any good ones around..."

Democrats Are Defacing McCain/Palin/Harris Signs
I don't want to hear a single one of you bitching about me blaming this on Democrats. If you're pissed off, GOOD! You won't see one, NOT ONE Obama Sign defaced with graffiti, yet the McCain/Palin/Harris signs are ALL being busted and graffiti spray painted all over them, no matter where you go in WICOMICO COUNTY and SALISBURY.
Now this gets a bit complicated as well. You see, what's Code & Compliance to do about signs with Graffiti all over them? The laws have changed that the graffiti need to be removed within 24 hours. Smart move DEMOCRATS. Force the County to make the Republicans remove their signs.
This Obama thing is for the birds. This is EXACTLY what this Country is going to turn into, yet we'll all be proud to have our first Black President in Office, right? I know, I'm going to once again be called a racist because we have a Black man running for Office and I just happen to think it will screw America 10 feet deep into the ground. That's OK, I've been called worse.
I do NOT dislike Obama. As an American I'm proud to see a man of his quality represent us for the good of America. Like I have said in the past, now is NOT the time to start playing this game. Nevertheless, you DEMOCRATS answer as to just how LOW you'll go to screw WICOMICO COUNTY. Be PROUD to wear your buttons because the rest of us might just spit on them when you walk past.
Are small yard signs being stolen, yes. BOTH parties are experiencing this problem and I hate to say it but in the Camden area, it's Students. UH OH< I'm now a Student Racist too! No, I just say it like it is. I hope the Sheriff's Department nails some of you people and locks you up. THIS IS AMERICA, STOP ACTING LIKE IDIOTS!

Frank Kratovil, I WANT SECURITY
This is the second event in a row that I have been to recently where Frank Kratovil asked for Security. The man is afraid of his own shadow. Richard James, (to the right) ignored him while Senator Andy Harris kinda laughed about the whole thing.
Kratovil and Obama people, (Democrats) are out DEFACING McCain/Palin/Harris Campaign Signs because they're so angry. I'll post those signs in just a minute.
Joe The Plumber Goes Off On Kratovil Last Night
Frank Kratovil was on the defense all night last night, "Again, let me go back to the last question and respond." Lie after lie, defensive in posture, Frank Kratovil had fed so much BS last night that people were fed up with it and even comparing him to OBAMA. One person even called him a "wet pants liberal." More to come........
Obama's Drama
"Dear Joe-
You may not know, or particularly care, but I am a registered democrat, although I consider myself to be a conservative one. For years, I have watched Fox News from time to time and have read/watched other republican media outlets and mostly laughed at their whining over the “unfair liberal bias of the media”.
But, you know, I have to freely admit that it is VERY different this year. The vast majority of the media outlets are not objectively reporting the election campaign - they are trying to get Obama elected. He is clearly their darling. Here is a concept (shades of Selma) that Obama has attempted to tie in to and the media has embraced: Obama is the new Kennedy, albeit the “Black Jack” Kennedy! I remember all the fawning over JFK and Jackie and family football games out in the yard and PT-47 and Camelot and the first Roman Catholic President…blah, blah, blah. Truth to tell, JFK and his family had more than their fair share of problems and skeletons. He was not a great president; it is well known that before and while in office he was a drug user, sex addict and made lots of mistakes. I am sure we all know today about his millionaire, bootlegging father. But JFK and Jackie made for great copy, over and over. They sold lots of papers and magazines. Back then the media kept mum about a male politician’s personal life!
It seems like the same thing is happening once again, to a large extent. The media is clearly pushing for Obama to win. Once again, they are keeping mum or giving a male democratic presidential candidate a free pass- this time about his many connections to extremely dubious individuals and organizations:
- ACORN (massive voter fraud and CRA {sub-prime mortgage} abuses)
-Richard Ayers (Weathermen Underground leader/ bomber/terrorist/ adviser/friend/fellow board_s_ member/political supporter/ radical alternative schools supporter and Chicago’s Annenberg Challenge BOD = $110 million wasted)__
-Bernadine Dohrn (same as above)
-Joe Biden ($1 million per year (average) last 5 years donations from lawyers and lobbyists/supporter of credit card companies’ rights/recipient of large credit card company donations, including employees’ contributions)
- Hunter Biden (Joe’s son/lobbyist/$320K lobbying fees St. Xavier’s/Obama earmark requests/his company does work for Dad)
-Franklin Raines (Fannie Mae CEO 1998-2003/misleading financial statements/ hidden golden parachute= $50 million/Obama political adviser)
-Jim Johnson (Fannie Mae CEO 1991-98/ $21 million compensation/Obama supporter and VP search committee)
-Rev.Wright (Goddamn America! {And so much more!})
-Tony Rezko (convicted felon/longtime friend/Illinois political fixer/Obama next-door-neighbor and Obama‘s $1.6 million house purchase assistant)
-Raila Odinga- corrupt Kenyan Muslim dictator/murderer/close Obama family ally)
-Rashid Khalid (known PLO supporter/Woods Fund recipient/Arab-American Action Network)
-Louis Farrakhan (Nation of Islam Leader/Obama “the Messiah!”)
-Frank Davis (early Barack Obama mentor/ Communist Party USA Member)
I wasn’t aware of it until recently, but it is now becoming obvious that Illinois, and in particular, Chicago, are the biggest hotbeds of radical/socialist/communist thought and action in the United States. Closely tied to all of this radicalism are greed and corruption, especially when they are conjoined with resentment, manipulation and exploitation. It is obvious that Illinois and Chicago are tragically corrupt . At the beginning of this year, I was going to vote for Obama. I despised Hilary and her naked lust for power. I thought; “Hey, he is a good orator, having a black man could help soothe some racial animosity, he is obviously intelligent, etc…..” Then something began to make me have a question about Obama’s friends and connections. Once I began looking, I couldn’t help but look more…and more. The more I looked, the uglier things around Obama looked.
And far too little national attention has been paid to his actual citizenship status. Philip Berg may or may not be a discredited political provocateur, but he raises questions that Obama is avoiding and avoiding and avoiding. It makes him look bad, like he IS hiding something. I urge all concerned voters to think long and well before they cast their ballots. How ominous would the course of our ship of state look with Obama at the helm?

You may not know, or particularly care, but I am a registered democrat, although I consider myself to be a conservative one. For years, I have watched Fox News from time to time and have read/watched other republican media outlets and mostly laughed at their whining over the “unfair liberal bias of the media”.
But, you know, I have to freely admit that it is VERY different this year. The vast majority of the media outlets are not objectively reporting the election campaign - they are trying to get Obama elected. He is clearly their darling. Here is a concept (shades of Selma) that Obama has attempted to tie in to and the media has embraced: Obama is the new Kennedy, albeit the “Black Jack” Kennedy! I remember all the fawning over JFK and Jackie and family football games out in the yard and PT-47 and Camelot and the first Roman Catholic President…blah, blah, blah. Truth to tell, JFK and his family had more than their fair share of problems and skeletons. He was not a great president; it is well known that before and while in office he was a drug user, sex addict and made lots of mistakes. I am sure we all know today about his millionaire, bootlegging father. But JFK and Jackie made for great copy, over and over. They sold lots of papers and magazines. Back then the media kept mum about a male politician’s personal life!
It seems like the same thing is happening once again, to a large extent. The media is clearly pushing for Obama to win. Once again, they are keeping mum or giving a male democratic presidential candidate a free pass- this time about his many connections to extremely dubious individuals and organizations:
- ACORN (massive voter fraud and CRA {sub-prime mortgage} abuses)
-Richard Ayers (Weathermen Underground leader/ bomber/terrorist/ adviser/friend/fellow board_s_ member/political supporter/ radical alternative schools supporter and Chicago’s Annenberg Challenge BOD = $110 million wasted)__
-Bernadine Dohrn (same as above)
-Joe Biden ($1 million per year (average) last 5 years donations from lawyers and lobbyists/supporter of credit card companies’ rights/recipient of large credit card company donations, including employees’ contributions)
- Hunter Biden (Joe’s son/lobbyist/$320K lobbying fees St. Xavier’s/Obama earmark requests/his company does work for Dad)
-Franklin Raines (Fannie Mae CEO 1998-2003/misleading financial statements/ hidden golden parachute= $50 million/Obama political adviser)
-Jim Johnson (Fannie Mae CEO 1991-98/ $21 million compensation/Obama supporter and VP search committee)
-Rev.Wright (Goddamn America! {And so much more!})
-Tony Rezko (convicted felon/longtime friend/Illinois political fixer/Obama next-door-neighbor and Obama‘s $1.6 million house purchase assistant)
-Raila Odinga- corrupt Kenyan Muslim dictator/murderer/close Obama family ally)
-Rashid Khalid (known PLO supporter/Woods Fund recipient/Arab-American Action Network)
-Louis Farrakhan (Nation of Islam Leader/Obama “the Messiah!”)
-Frank Davis (early Barack Obama mentor/ Communist Party USA Member)
I wasn’t aware of it until recently, but it is now becoming obvious that Illinois, and in particular, Chicago, are the biggest hotbeds of radical/socialist/communist thought and action in the United States.

Gary makes it sound like the SVFD won't contribute their funds unless they get what they want. If Gary Comegys said it, it must be true. NOT! It seems everyone knows the truth except members of what is now known as the Gordo Corleone Family (Gordy, Comegys, Hoppes and See). Then again, we all know that crew wouldn't know the truth if it jumped up and kicked them in the butt. So who is strongarming whom? My money goes on the Gordo Corleone family.

For the record. Councilman Comegys was part of the committee to spec and build
the ladder truck at Station 2 that is not up to the SFD standards. It has been
broken down and a constant problem.
Comegys helped design this truck in 2000 and did so to put the volunteers out
of business at Station 16. Thats the brotherhood he speaks of. Well the truck
is 8 years old and clearly shows the man knows nothing about fire trucks. Now
the taxpayers are going to let him get them four trucks. Didn't you learn your
lesson.

The Volunteers at Station 1 did not want a ladder truck. We wanted to keep
tanker 1-1. Gordy threatened to take our charter and worse if we didn;t give
him the money to buy the trucks.

Whomever Stated Ehrlich Wasn't Going To Run For Governor Was A Liar!
I sat with former Governor Bob Ehrlich last night and flat out asked him if the story put out recently was true about him running again for Governor and he flat out stated to me and others close by, that story was completely untrue. The MSM has become so desperate, they'll take anything someone says and twist it just to sell papers.
So to ALL of you Bloggers out there taking the ball and running with that FALSE story, stop it. It is absolutely not true.
I should add, the guy isn't even running for Office and O'Malley is running polls to see if he'll haver a chance against a guy who hasn't even announced he's interested in competing against him. How scary is that? It reminds me of Frank Kratovil. Harris is up by 4 points in a DEMOCRATIC poll. LMAO! It was their own poll and they're bragging that they're LOSING!
Another Spin
This is a spin off from the Truth be Told article posted on Oct. 28th
Twas the day of my paycheck
And I was surprised
Extra deductions did appeared to my eyes.
What's this for and that for and I said what the heck?
My once livable pay had turned into a wreck!
Deductions for Food Stamps
Decdutions for the poor
Free housing for them
And a whole lot more.
My taxes went up
As high as the sky
And I just had to ask
Now I wonder why.
I work by butt offf
I work hard everday
Now I have to figure
How to live on my pay.
Can't go on Welfare
I make too much for that
And am now being taxed
So someone else can sit fat.
Vote how you feel
Vote for the best
But please don't make me
Pay for the rest!

Valero VS. Kratovil Station
It's no wonder there's no one in line. Just head to Chicken Man or Valero in the Hebron area and don't get gouged.
Gas Prices In Cecil County
"My husband and I went to Harford County this past weekend to visit friends and in Northeast Maryland at the Wawa and Royal Farms stores they had their gas at $2.179 a gallon. The other stores in the Cecil County and Harford County area averaged $2.299 a gallon. Now how can this area be selling gas cheaper when in the past it usually always averaged .20 cents higher than the eastern shore. HMMMMMMM"

Salisbury Fire Equipment Destroying Draw Bridge?
Ever since the new Salisbury $10,000,000.00 Man Fire Station has been built, the Rt. 50 Draw Bridge has taken a beating, all the way down to the rebar!
There's no denying everywhere you turn, Salisbury's infrastructure is quickly falling apart and now it is at the risk of the lives of those who travel over one of the heaviest traffic bridges on the entire Eastern Shore.
You won't see this kind of stuff in the Daily Times because the Mayor won't allow YOU to know just how bad things are around here and the fact that her Staff to too damn lazy to do anything about it. Things like this don't happen overnight. Wanna bet the SHA is out there tomorrow working on this?
This Photo Provides Plenty Of Food For Thought
We truly take a lot for granted. Forget the football 'heroes' and movie 'stars'. Pass this on so that everyone in America knows the price of freedom.
Daily Times So Desperate They're Repeating Articles
What happens when the Editor of the Daily Times is in bed with Gilchrest's top employee? You get OUR VIEW Editorials over and over again endorsing Frank Kratovil.
Today's Daily Slime even goes into a message on how Andy Harris twisted words that those SOB's at the Daily Slime PRINTED. Are you people that crooked, well, you obviously are. You're the ones who PRINTED Frank Kratovil stating, "We Solved The Crisis," you freakin morons!
Yep, between old man Billy and the Daily Slime, two people so pissed off at Joe Albero, they'll do anything to support the other candidate out of spite. FRANK KRATOVIL IS A BOLD FACED LIAR. More to come..........
