Chiefy & Comegys Are About To Get Slammed With More Truth

I think I'll hold off until tomorrow morning to express my opinion about tonight's meeting but let me assure you of one thing, OUR people have real engineering degrees Mr. Comegys, not titles. They also have degrees, unlike your idiotship.

I think you can tell by the tone of this Post things are going to really get rocky in tomorrow's Post because old Chiefy is about to get spanked with the TRUTH and it's NOT going to look good on the old man. Trust me on that one.

Oh, by the way Louise, would you let me get that loud, angry and aggressive as Gary Comegys was tonight???????

ARRRRGH!

Little Brooke Mulford Needs Prayers

Hi everyone,

It's after midnight and I need to get to sleep since the nights are usually the most difficult I get very little sleep. The past three nights Brooke has needed to be put on oxygen. Friday night her pulsox dropped to 83% (should be above 90% minimum) and she needed oxygen until about 1:00 in the afternoon. They did a chest xray Sat morning and they think she has pneumonia or a collapsed lung but are leaning toward pneumonia. She will be getting a repeat xray done tomorrow morning (Monday). They have also done some other tests and should get results late tomorrow on those.

Don't think we will be getting out of here Monday as planned - which I would not feel comfortable leaving in light of the situation anyway. She has been spiking fevers (up to 104.1) off and on through out the days and nights (which is typical with this clinical trial but still tough as a parent to see). Her blood pressure has improved since the first day. She is due to get her 2nd blood transfusion this week any minute now (her hemaglobin was 7 last night but they weren't able to give the transfusion while getting her antibodies infusion so it had to wait until tonight).

We have been missing Grammy so much this week as she has been home sick. Uncle Johnny & aunt Johanna have been coming in when they can (Wed, Fri & Sat) and it's always a bright spot in our day. Daddy came to visit yesterday and Brooke was talking a mile a minute the entire time he was here (she was so excited to see him) and I got to see the light of day for the first time since Wed (we don't have an outside window - just a noisy view of the ER waiting room). Also, had a fun visit with aunt Cheryl & cousin Brian today. Whenever we have visitors she kicks me to the curb (she knows she can get away with anything when I'm gone) but the minute they're gone I can't even stand outside the door without her telling me she needs me! We brought in walkie talkies this time so that if I'm putting laundry in or running down to the caffeteria she can talk to me if she needs me but they don't work in the caffeteria. We practiced with them all last week at home. She's so cute on them and always ends with "over & out" (no idea where she got it from).
Well, those are the highlights and lowlights since Thurs. Please pray that her lungs clear quickly and that she doesn't get worse. Also, please pray for Grammy to get better soon...we miss her so much.

God Bless,
Amy

The Lord is my Strength and my Shield; my heart trusts in, relies on, and confidently leans on Him, and I am helped; therefore my heart greatly rejoices, and with my song will I praise Him.

Chuck Baldwin Article

Joe,

Here is an article by Chuck Baldwin about the Fort Hood shooting. He raises some very good points in the article:

How can our government protect us from "terror" if it can't even protect the military ON A BASE!

How could this guy go unnoticed for so long when we have been told of all his "terror" communications?

Also, why aren't the soldiers armed, and then, why didn't they protect themselves from this guy?

I have thought the story was fishy from the beginning with news of multiple shooters and then, we thought the shooter was dead for 8 hours before being told he lived.

Gaps For Consumers In Democrat Health Care Bills

For consumers, the health care bills taking final shape in Congress don't rate close to a perfect 10.

The Democrat measures would leave 12 million or more eligible Americans uninsured. Many middle-class families who would be required to buy coverage would still find the premiums a stretch, even with government aid. A new federal fund to provide temporary coverage for people with health problems would quickly run out of cash.

Both House and Senate bills now provide for a government insurance plan, but Reid's bill would let states opt out. It's not clear that Reid has the votes. He may be able to get a compromise to allow a government plan only if, after a reasonable time, insurance companies fail to deliver lower premiums.

Resolving these policy issues would be a historic accomplishment for Democrats. But the bill could still leave consumers feeling a little cheated.

The main consumer protections and financial help for the uninsured won't kick in for three to four years. The delay was necessary to tamp down costs. Even then, not all Americans would be covered.

The Congressional Budget Office estimates some 12 million eligible Americans would remain uninsured after the House bill is fully phased in, in 2019. Under the Senate bill, roughly 16 million would not have insurance. The bills would provide coverage to more than 30 million now uninsured, but workers would still be more likely to be uninsured than seniors.

The Heart Of The Bell Ringing Headquarters

Even with a wide angle lens it's impossible to capture all of the charts spread around the entire room. The Salvation Army Headquarters is fielding phone calls, one after the other trying to fill up these charts. They have added several new locations, many of which are weekend only. After last year they learned many of the volunteers had more spare time on the weekends and local companies agreed to allow the Salvation Army ring their bells and raise money for a fantastic cause.

If you have some free time and would like to help those in need, please call the Salvation Army and ring a bell, even if its only for an hour. There are still open slots indoors at the Mall and it's an experience you'll never forget.

If you'd like to volunteer for a slot at any of the above locations please, send your request to ringabell4tsa@verizon.net or call Kettle Campaign Headquarters 410-749-RING (7464).

I always wondered where new trucks came from, now we know.

Wicomico Fire Departments Take On A Life Of Their Own

PIO Officers, HAZMAT Teams and now special vehicles for photographers, WOW! There's an on line computer inside with all sorts of bells and whistles, let not forget lighting.

It must be an official vehicle because there's no Maryland Tag on the front of the vehicle. Just three tags telling you they're someone very special.

You have to wonder, since this is Station 40's vehicle, will Gordy & Hoppes be demanding they get one too and hire on Wayne Barrall as their official photographer? I mean, how can someone else have something Station 16 doesn't have!

They recently created the new PIO position, yet no one has seen anything in the Press about anything going on with the SFD. Why, because no one is truly interested. It took years to finally get the Daily Times to actually start paying attention to crime, especially any crime from the SPD. They would do Press Releases from the State Police and the Sheriff's Department but until Salisbury News came along they stayed away from anything the SPD put out there. That is, unless it was a murder or something that serious.

These Fire Departments are taking on a life of their own, believing they're news worthy. While much of what they do is pretty cool, one has to wonder why they keep expanding into every one elses arena and only feed information they want exposed to the public? It also makes you wonder just how long it will be before they have their own Secret Service Agents to protect them in the 2nd Most Violent City In America?

Congratulations Salisbury University!

The Magi Fund Celebrates 16 Years With The National Christian Choir

The National Christian Choir accompanied by the Magi Children's Choir put on a show 2nd to none Saturday night and Sunday morning.

160 children from Holly Grove Christian School, Pemberton Elementary School, Salisbury Christian School, Fruitland Intermediate School, North Salisbury Elementary School and Asbury Church delivered a spectacular performance and helped raise more than $40,000.00 this year for the Magi Fund. These funds are used to help support the Joseph House Center as well as the Salisbury Christian Center.

Out of nowhere, Sheriff Mike Lewis and Conductor Jim Perdue, (lol) came on stage in the middle of a performance and started ringing the bell for the Salvation Army. The Salvation Army has partnered up with the Magi Fund to help raise money for those in need.

It was a spectacular evening and I must admit, Jim Perdue did a fantastic job conducting the National Christian Choir. Sheriff Lewis, keep your day job. ;-)

MEDICARE WASTE AND FRAUD

How would waste and fraud be eliminated from Medicare? To find a possible answer, we must examine the administrative cost of private insurance companies and compare it to Medicare. The private companies have a cost in the neighborhood of 20%. Medicare claims about 6%, a 14% difference. How can that be?

Start with Medicare premiums that are collected by the Social Security Administration and not charged to Medicare. The need for clerks to track billing has been eliminated from Medicare. The real meat of the matter is the private companies have staff to review claims in order to eliminate waste and fraud. It is obvious that Medicare does not. The cost to the federal government, last year, for Medicare and Medicaid was $807 billion dollars. Fifty (50) billion in waste and fraud is 7% of the cost. One might conclude that creating a bureaucracy to eliminate the waste and fraud would cost more than the loss. Evidently prior administrations came to the conclusion that the cost to control waste and fraud was more than the theft. A prime example is the IRS. Laws and agents exist and yet payment of taxes, by everyone, can't be enforced.

Since 1970, Medicaid's per-patient costs have risen 35% more, and Medicare's 34% MORE, than all other health care in America. President Obama and his congressional lackey's say we must expand government -run health care to contain costs. Nearly forty (40) YEARS OF EVIDENCE SHOWS THAT GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE HAS SUCCEEDED ONLY IN RAISING COSTS. Why would we believe a public option would be any better?

Forty three percent (43%) of Medicaid costs are paid for by the states. However, the proposed legislation calls for 100% of additional enrolled to be paid for by the states until 2015 when it drops to 91%.Estimates are that 13 million people will be added to the Medicaid rolls. Estimate 3,250,000 households at a projected cost of $8,955 each, that's real money to be absorbed by the states. No one seems to know what waste and fraud exist at the state level. I am coming to believe a waste and fraud lobby group exists in Washington. There is not enough waste and fraud in the private insurance companies, so they call on government to create more.

The Twelve Principals Of Liberty

Our Founding Fathers understood and enshrined within our most sacred documents, fundamental truths, so evident in their existence, so plain in their understanding, that no individual, true to his moral code, would doubt their validity.

"In disquisitions of every kind there are certain primary truths or first principles upon which all subsequent reasonings must depend. . . and [are] so obvious in themselves, and so agreeable to the natural and unsophisticated dictates of common sense, that they challenge the assent of a sound and unbiased mind, with a degree of force and conviction almost equally irresistible." – Alexander Hamilton, Federalist Papers, No. 31

We at United in Liberty hold to these, The 12 Principles of Liberty™ as a 'Moral Code' for all of America and its future generations. Those who find themselves in constant study and application of these truths are most able to defend and protect the freedoms and liberties so many others before have fought to uphold.

Principle #1 – God endows mankind with unalienable rights such as life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Principle #2 – Unalienable rights cannot be made, altered or abolished by government or mankind.

Principle #3 – As its proper role, government is instituted by mankind exclusively to protect unalienable rights.

Principle #4 – It is the right of the people to alter or abolish an abusive government.

Principle #5 – All mankind are justified before God in the defense of unalienable rights.

Principle #6 – To ensure freedom, the law must be created by a moral and educated people.

Principle #7 – Freedom can only be sustained through a representative republic.

Principle #8 – To prevent the abuse of power, government must be limited, local, checked and balanced.

Principle #9 – All mankind are created equal before God, the law, and in the protection of their rights.

Principle #10 – All mankind are created with the ability to choose and each have responsibility for their own agency.

Principle #11 – Prosperity occurs when free enterprise and private property exist with minimal government regulation and restrained debt.

Principle #12 – The family, in its traditional form, as ordained by God, is the core unit of free society.

Mayor Ireton & Chiefy Webster Address The City Monday Night

While Louise Smith, (President of the Salisbury City Council) has requested Chiefy Webster and Mayor Ireton address the City Council in reference to the Mayor's Crime Task Force, time has been set aside for them to do so tonight.

Mind you, Chiefy Webster is NOT on the Crime Task Force and in fact was pretty distant from participating, probably because of his differences with Councilwoman Debbie Campbell and Mayor Ireton.

Nevertheless, this should get quite interesting listening to these two spit out information AFTER so much has been exposed by Salisbury News in recent weeks. The pressure is on and they know it. 9 days ago, (as well as this past Saturday) we exposed crime on The Joe Albero Show, (repeated this past Saturday) and crime seemed to be on every one's mind immediately following as even the Daily Times had Grapevine comments all over the place ever since.

In all fairness, let's hope the Mayor and Chiefy have concrete answers and not more BS. Anyhow, here's your opportunity to express what YOU would like to hear Monday night.

Cherrystone Campground Sucks!

Last camping season many people experienced more than just one problem with Cherrystone Campground in Virginia.

However, it was the very tail end of the season that outraged quite a bit of people, yet nothing was ever expressed in the Press.

The photos above are of actual camp sites. Many people who made reservations and drove all the way out to Cherrystone Campground were introduced to camp sites that were completely under water. Many of these spaces are actually pop up tent camp sites and the Office REFUSED to give back any one's money. In fact, if you wanted to relocate to dryer land, you had to start all over again and foot the bill for relocating and pay the regular rates.

I know of several people that experienced this problem and believe it or not, many people got right back in their vehicles and made the long ride back home disappointing their children.

Cherrystone Campground will no longer receive my business as well as several of my friends and associates. While Salisbury News grows with National recognition, the title alone will put a hurting on their business and this is exactly what they deserve.

As many of you know, my Mother passed away not long ago. The Albero Family was scheduled to go to Cherrystone for a Halloween Weekend but we had to cancel based on my Mother's death. I called Cherrystone and told them we would not be coming that weekend and explained that my Mother had passed away. Their very first response was, "What did she die of?" I was hesitant but replied, she died of cancer. They then said, "How old was she?" I gave them her age and then he asked, "When did she die?" I told them when she died and he said, "How long did she have the cancer.?" I then lost it and said, look, I don't know who the hell you think you are but this line of questioning is completely out of line. I asked for a manager and the same person came back on the line and said, "My manager said you need to send us your Mother's Death Certificate AND an ad from an Obituary and we'll then decide what we can do for you." I said, DO FOR ME, you're kidding me, right? I then said, there's no point in me going through all of that and then stuffing an envelope with a stamp on it if I'm not going to get back 100% of my money, (I had paid in full for the entire weekend, not just a deposit).

They said that's what the manager had said. I then stated, look, how about we do this. I'll get you the information you need and instead of sending me the money back, why don't you apply it towards another weekend next year. He said, "we cannot do that, that's the rules."

I sent them the obituary as well as the Death Certificate and we have yet to receive a credit on the credit card. Just as I had figured from the beginning, Cherrystone is going to keep my money and do nothing about satisfying us at all. Therefore we will NEVER do business with them again and this Blog will do more damage than they ever thought. If you don't believe me, wait until tomorrow and go ahead and Google Cherrystone Campground and watch who pops up on top.

They should have returned our money.
