What part is wrong? How would you correct it?<br /><br />I watched that whole meeting on PAC14 and Mr. Harrison appears to be very right.<br /><br />Also, I would just like to note something about how that meeting looked from the couch. A couple of the firefighters were very nice and just talked about their work on the grant.<br /><br />But one of them was spewing political nastiness while in uniform. I was shocked. My very manly husband was amazed. He once worked for a government for 6 years and told me, "If I had pulled that in front of the commission, my butt would have been shown the door with a pink slip nailed to it."<br /><br />Mrs. Cohen was very patient and attentive, which is to her credit, but honestly, I could not believe the fire chief allowed that to happen. Maybe he made it happen because that firefighter sounded like he was venting for the chief or running for office or something.<br /><br />I am glad the department got the grant, but my opinion of them is lower after that disrespectful display.<br /><br />My husband joked, "If they are that short of people, how come that many of them could spend the night at the meeting." Then he told me to blow the candles on the table out so our house didn't catch fire and we had to call the lobbyists to put them out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31586983.post-425184082818975262012-08-30T10:25:54.015-04:002012-08-30T10:25:54.015-04:00@ 9:15 so who will you be voting for in the next P...@ 9:15 so who will you be voting for in the next Presidential election since you don't like name calling?

It contained a request for additional police that had been hidden from the council by the Mayor. It was her homework and questions that brought that to light. It seems that the common thread is that Slaisbury needs an honest Mayor that doesn't hide things about the business of the city from the council or the public.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31586983.post-14378778859493836482012-08-30T09:39:15.311-04:002012-08-30T09:39:15.311-04:00anonymous 9:20, I'm pretty confident I know wh...anonymous 9:20, I'm pretty confident I know who you are.

I have more respect for backbone - vote against it if against it.<br /><br />------<br />"ANYONE who votes against Debbie Campbell is a complete fool and only out for landlord interests..." IN ESSENCE Joe you believe anyone who does not believe as you do is a fool. I could more easy listen/read your opinions with an open mind if I did not have to wade through paragraphs of trashing, without name calling. This is the way of the Obama administration and should not be the way of Joe Albero our next Mayor. I do not consider you a fool for a different opinion but I sure cannot respect for you for calling me one.<br />___________<br />At least a vote for me ....with special interests. My door will get slammed in their faces, period. MY OPINION - if you chose to not listen to others and do things only your way than a vote for you will just be another "Jim Ireton" kind of Mayor. I am retired and have never been tied to special interest but if I do not agree with you, you declare not only am I a fool but I am special interest. You will slam the door in my face because I express a different opinion (in America no less). <br /><br />I like your ideas but when you communicate such repulsion for others who "might" be running against you and Ms Campbell your ideas don't come through as the important part of the Albero message.<br /><br />Lets look at the facts. NO one has filed to run so at this point NO one is running, Everything at this point is speculation <br />Now is the time for you to get your plans out there on your blog. After you file you will do well to communicate to voters how your ideas are better than your opponent(s)without name calling.<br /><br /> I think myself to be an average conservative voter and do not believe defaming all opponents makes for a good leadership.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Blog Cruisernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31586983.post-13250539088394410462012-08-30T07:41:22.563-04:002012-08-30T07:41:22.563-04:00Anonymous 12:39, come on now, give me a break.

While Matt Drew may be a nice guy and all, Salisbury should be thanking their lucky stars that Debbie Campbell is even considering another 4 years on Council. I mean, seriously! <br /><br />Matt Drew is nothing short of a pawn for Mike Dunn and Barrie Tilghman. <br /><br />Look, let's put it this way. Dunn, Comegys and Cathcart screwed the public with their civility Dream Team ACT back in the day. Then Louise Smith pulled the same crap using Debbie & Terry to get her elected when she was a pawn the whole time for the former Tilghman Administration. Then came Mitchell with the same crap and now Matt Drew.<br /><br />Folks, THINK, why would ANYONE want to run against Campbell when she has served the citizens of this City so well? Do you think she's a rubber stamp for ANYBODY? Do you realize the wisdom she holds and the hours she has put into this job for so many years.<br /><br />ANYONE who votes against Debbie Campbell is a complete fool and only out for landlord interests, in comes Matt Drew. <br /><br />Don't be fooled again. At least a vote for me is a vote YOU KNOW what to expect. No games, just results. Yeah, there might be a select few that won't like me but I'm pretty confident those select few are just that, a select few with special interests. My door will get slammed in their faces, period. <br /><br />Salisbury has one last shot at a balanced Council and Mayor that will finally represent the Citizens for once. <br /><br />"It's not Joe Albero's election to lose, it's the Citizens election to lose".JoeAlberohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10233381758011897246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31586983.post-15107415556189386992012-08-30T07:27:24.101-04:002012-08-30T07:27:24.101-04:00Didn't Ireton pull the same thing when the sea...Didn't Ireton pull the same thing when the search went out for a police chief replacement?

That is except for those where the mayors stated to not request them. The other budgets had those people removed prior to being brought before council. The need for folks has been shown time and again but the mayors have refused to allow them into any budgets. That's why council hasn't seen requests for people. Most dont know that and some wont believe it but it is truth. Department heads wont buck their boss for fear of losing their jobs. Raises for employees are the same thing. Either cut out or told not to submit.

I read it over and over again, but ...Great article. I read it over and over again, but didn't see one thing I was looking for. You made a point that the fire grant was cheap shot from Ireton to score political points against Debbie Campbell and Terry. Ever since Ireton got elected his head started to swell and he is intimidated by competition. One thing to validate you point is the fact that Ireton submitted Rick Hoppes as his choice for fire chief. Ireton submitted Rick Hoppes' name knowing full well Hoppes wasn't qualified and knowing the city council would not confirm his appointment. It has been said by many that the appointment of Rick Hoppes was to start a fight with the city council. Think about it, Hoppes was rejected by Jim Ireton 3 times during the last search 2 years ago. What is sad is Mr. Hoppes is to stupid to realize he is being used in a political tug of war, but his ego is telling him to hang in there in hopes that he will get the top job. In the mean time the city and the fire department burns with Rome.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31586983.post-27389442631674269832012-08-29T22:17:36.805-04:002012-08-29T22:17:36.805-04:00Joe, I am really glad you picked this up from Mr. ...Joe, I am really glad you picked this up from Mr. Harrison.
