The word "dissolve" will always be attached to last year due to the stunt pulled by Brockton Brenda and the Moderator. I got into a little discussion elsewhere about the way the Fall Town Meeting's we're brought to a close (both nights)..So, I decided to make a clip that included both. The first night's ending is simply Brockton Brenda at her finest (and some people wonder why I've called her a witch). She should resign, period...and it's a very good example of why the Moderator should/will be out in April. The ending of night two is shorter and toward the very end of the clip.

Moderator John Donahue wrote:

For clarification, as a procedural matter, the motion made last night to dissolve Town Meeting would not have negated the votes as if they had never occurred. A motion to dissolve would simply have brought Town Meeting to a conclusion without having taken up any other business. In other words, we would have ended Town Meeting only having voted on Article 1 through Article 5 and we would not have voted on Articles 6 through 22. The meeting would have ended then and there, period. Regardless of the effect of the motion, I agree that it did not reflect well upon the BOS for trying to end TM without voting on the remainder of the Articles.

Yeah, right. You handled it perfectly Mr. Momo.

Those who want to point a finger at "us" for Wareham's troubles may want to watch this a few times..or get a lobotomy (you may have to get your tin foil hat's adjusted)
