The two at large C/C members are needed as much as the P.I.O. It is funny went the knife hits the bone just who pops out of the wood work. I see a lot people with the "Me" syndrome that has ruined this country.
Those three people we call for their blood. How can any of us that can afford a computer sit here and demand the livelyhood of another person. Look at what we have become. A bit of adversity and we want people to walk the plank. Hell someone has to pay right. Who cares about the families of these people in hard economic times.
I find it funny that McCain is not running this term. Who paid for the room at the Civic Center ?? Bill can you answer this.
If we wnt to throw people under the bus. Lets start with the perfect storm that has been brewing in this county for twenty years. We are seeing the cold hard facts of the Peterson & Craemer debacle and past councils. The recent crew inherited a mess, but have really done nothing to improve the quailty of life for anyone other than themselves.
The Landfill theft ring going on for years. Who was the watch. This county will surely be laying off people this July. Start with those who litterly stole from the county that are still employed. Start with the obvious crooks then go after the elected ones that created it.
Americans are tired of Politicians force feeding us bullshit with a sprinkle sugar hoping it goes down o.k.
On a side note I guess the passing of judgement on Jen Foxwell paid off. I hear through the grapevine she has suffered a major breakdown. Instead of attacking the beast that committed the crime we let our anger go far and wide. If this women kills herself have we garnered a victory. I do not think so. I would not want that on my hands.
As Easter approaches I know my heart is heavy with the state of the country and county.
Remember ones life is worth more then a hand full of coin.

Well said.
Although many are not, I am truly sorry to hear about Jennifer Foxwell. I hope she gets the help she needs.
As far as the county goes, I still believe that they need to get rid of the contracted people that are making a load off the county and doing not much of nothing. They should be cut before the real employees are cut!!!
She did it to herself.
She did do it to herself, but I can only imagine the depth of her pain. There is no happy ending to any of this.
Two council at large seats are held by hopefuly retired persons and can survive better that a lower paid employee whose only income is the minimal paycheck. These less payed people will be the first to be laid off. We need to make government smaller. to We need to start at the top not at the bottom.
Your heart may be heavy, but your brain is feather light. In tough financial times you don't hold on to uncecessary positions because of sympathy for the person. Did you catch that difference? It's the position, - not the person. as far as the Foxwell situation, - well never mind. You wouldn't understand.
Joe:
Who is this moron (The Wicomican). If he/she had bothered to attend the meeting he/she would have heard Mr. McCain say that he paid for the room. This comment, now a post, is a convoluted rant by someone who apparently needs help fast.
The notion that a government employee cannot be terminated by force reduction is ridiculous.
Obviously 11:41 someone has struck your guilty consience. Maybe you are part of the crew that sat idley while well over half a million was stolen from the county ?? Maybe you are one of the very people I speak of. As for help you are on track there as well. I need all the help I can get. To make self rightous people like you see the light. Do not take my post as someone who may turn the other cheek. I can assure I have left more than thoughts and prayer on the streets of this country so that you and I are free to post.
If you have a logical argument to any part of the Foxwell situation speak up. All I say is the anger placed at the feet of the women who lost a child to murder. While the child was in the care of a "Responsible Party". Come on there are millions of mother out here struggling making the wrong calls because no one took the time to care. Did she make bad decisions abosultely. Did she know a Thomas leggs would enter her families life. No way.
I am pretty sure I know who you are as well. Stop looking at yourself in the mirror twenty times a day and do something for the people that elected your sorry tail J.C. I mean it is just a guess. It sure sounds like you or another member of council.
My convoluted rant is almost as convoluted as your response. In November we will see real change I hope. The Goverment has awoken a sleeping country. These people will now take time to vote and be heard. So many of us lived in staus quo for far to long.
I have met more people in the last year that are disgusted with the actions of elected officials then pleased. Say what you will the system is broken. The years of the "me" generation has left people with little morals or ethics.
As for forced reduction in employement. Yes there sadly comes a time when it may be needed. Who creatated the problem. The corrupt politicians and pure greed. Maybe realignment of staff. I would never tred on a human trying to make a living. Shed more rersponsibilty,stop spending and sit strong.
One does not need a degree in finance to utilize common sense. My Grandfather once said "Just because a man can quote scripture. It does not make him a christian". Just because you can smile for the cameras,say the right thing, it does not make you a leader of men.
Well I guess your philoshpy is right lay off a hundred employees from the county. It is a drop in the bucket. So they can all file for relief on the system. Oh is taht tax dollars. What the hell man think before you speak. Stop purchasing land and building multi-million dollar buildings. Keep your civil resources strong. Set up revenue building prospects. A one percent transfer tax would be a huge help. Speed cameras in D.C. have generated millions of dollars.
Yea I guess you are right I am a moron. I still believe in God and Country. I still serve to keep you free of tryanny and crime.I still believe in the human spirit.
Joe keep up the great job. You are a true asset to this community.

Jennifer's breakdown could be from a series of many things which she created herself.
1. Unfit Mother. That in itself could be very embarrassing when out in public.
2. Daughter murdered. A parent never gets over the loss of a child no matter how that loss happened.
3. Mourning. Appears it didn't last long since she was out having a good time not long after the funeral.
4. WBOC interview. Does she really think this helped her look better in the public eye?
5. Comments. She's probably wishing she hadn't made certain comments in print since they've been shown online. Anyone with access to seeing her FB comments knows what she's saying.
I could go on but she's really not worth my attention. This woman needs some serious help, not pitty. Yet, it's the pitty and attention that she's always seeked. If your a man out there, please be on the lookout! You could be the next man she's after. Don't drink and date this woman! Who knows what she may claim you did, said, etc.
1:58 That is my point she has a ton of emotional issues. I am not saying this site caused her problems at all. The truth can hurt way beyond the act itself. She is where she needs to be I guess. If the rumors are true. There is no Halmark ending to this story.
I think she did what she was conditioned to do. Blame everyone else. I think we have all heard this song before. I was just saying it was time to put it away.
If anyone deserves it Sarah does. We all know that no matter how bad our parents are we still love them. We may not support or condone the acts, but never the less these kids loved their mother.
Well Happy Easter to all.
11:41 hurt my feelings so bad I have booked time with Dr.Phil lol. 11:41 Have a Happy Easter as well.
You all need to take a "chill pill."
Not only is Wicomico County in financial straits, the whole nation is too. The problem in Wicomico is no one is working together. Instead everyone is working against each other. Yes, this is an election year and there will be much said both good and bad about those who have the courage to put their name out there and want to get elected. Let's stop playing the blame game and try to work towards getting through this crisis.
As for Ms. Foxwell, well she has her own demons haunting her. She doesn't need ugly words thrown at her.
Amen Wicomican!
Citizens of Salisbury and of Maryland..United you will Stand again and Divided we will all fall. That is for Salisbury, Maryland and United States. Both the dems amd the GOP have failed us miserably. But Clinton left the office with a surplus in the budget...Yes you know what the Budget was when Bush left Office. Then you people want to fight every idea the president has. Poke Fun, laugh, try to run the man out of office because in a little over a year he cannot 'fix" the USA problem. No man could fix our budget/deficit in a little over a year. Try to give the President some support. He certainly can do no worse than the BUSH/Cheney team did to all of us.
He needs to show his birth certificate. Period !
Can u say ACORN member. lol
Jennifer Foxwell is a complete and utter waste of space...taxpayer dollars (cause i gurantee she recieves state assistance) and our time in general...more time and attention should be spent on Sarah and the legacy she leaves behind. This community needs to stand together to ensure that Sarahs death not be in vain but as a warning to all sex offenders that we WILL NOT lie low or turn the other cheek...No child left behind...No child left to die at the hands of convicted sex offenders who roam the streets of our communities unsupervised
This community has come a long way but it has an even longer way to go....So if you are looking for perfection/paradise it does not exist on Earth so stop wasting your time
