Widely known is one definition of prominent. Heck Joe Albero could be known as a prominent person.

Put on a good face.<br /><br />Did this "prominent" person send the same to the Daily Times when all it would write about was bickering among officials (when what it was really certain officials beating up other officials) instead of discussing real issues and the good things that were really taking place?

First of all, Joe calls the person, prominent; did the writer of the post call himself such? Second, I believe the point is, fair or not, but totally subjective, is that the commenters on this blog are always so negative. The only positive things they have to say are about Joe himself. No one will want to live here with ONLY negative information being put forth. Yes, you will say that Joe also puts up positive posts. But let's be honest; they hardly get any hits at all. It's like looking at a train wreck. Everyone wants to see what's horrible, and forget about what is good. I understand what the poster was trying to say, at least I think I do. You guys are always so quick to judge and condemn. Salisbury and especially Wicomico County have a lot of positives to offer our families. It wouldn't hurt to mention them once in a while. That's all I think he was trying to say. So, let the attacks begin. And before you start, I am not a dumbocrat, a liberal, a welfare recipient, an Obama lover, or any other insult you want to throw out there.

Speaking out against government wrongdoing so that the governed can become educated and make educated decisions when they vote is the cornerstone of this once great nation. Voting can NEVER be the powerful tool that assures "a government of the people, by the people, for the people" unless the people can make decisions based on fact rather than government propaganda designed to control the vote in order to promote a party agenda. I promise you that there are elected officials who believe they know better than their constituents whats good for them. If it weren't for the 1st Amendment, journalists would be arrested on bogus charges, sued for matters without merit, and defamed repeatedly in attempts to draw the attention of the populace away from the important issues. Oh wait. Isn't that what happened to you? So it seems that people in positions of power try to manipulate constitutional rights in order to keep the population from knowing the truth. I just drew an interesting parallel. Remember in history we learned that the slave owners kept the slaves under their thumbs by not letting them become educated. By prohibiting them from learning the basic skills necessary to read. Remember learning that the fear was that once the slaves became educated, they would rebel? Now the Slave holders (government) are once again trying to keep the slaves (us) from becoming educated (about the important issues). And the fear seems to be the same as well. They fear we will rebel. We are now locked in a struggle for our rights. Rights afforded us by our creator are inconsistent with the type of oppressive government we currently have. In order for us to retain the rights we have left and to reclaim those we have lost, we need to become educated, united, and act accordingly. The 1st Amendment is critical to this end. In order for our government to continue down the current path of oppression of the serfs and maintaining our status as nothing more sources of revenue, they must reduce the number of rights we have even further. The most effective way is to eliminate the right to speak out against government wrongdoing and keep the populace in the dark. No Sir. A free press not influenced by corporate money and government pressure is absolutely imperative if we ever intend to reclaim our Country and our God given rights. But it's whatever.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31586983.post-24728077423199333262014-01-24T09:22:05.430-05:002014-01-24T09:22:05.430-05:00Like other comments - I find the idea of someone b...Like other comments - I find the idea of someone being "prominent" in Salisbury laughable unless it is someone doing charitable or philanthropic work - those are the people who are really working on the fabric of this community.<br /><br />The person who wrote the email to Joe is likely feeling threatened because he/she sees their "prominence" (in their own mind) slipping away.
