I would suggest you add Cruz to the list....he has had his chance, and he has blown it...he is just as guilty as the other two, even more so, because as Chairman he has been taken over by Andrews.

I agree, Harry...but replacing Cruz gives you MORE than a super majority!

I don't understand what your talking about Dan.

Why is supporting a recall surrender?

We did not leave this site last year it left us.

I don't know anyone who is questioning Bill's loyalty or resolve.

Why is the site on life support? Does it need money? Does it take too much time? Where are the other people who started the site back up with Bill?

If keeping this site up is harming Bill in any way, and we cannot help, I will support Bill's shutting it down. I am grateful for this site but not at Bill's expense.

If you want passion I'll give you some, you sanctimonious son of a B.  We are not safe in Florida. We are in the trenches. We are losing a great deal. We are being wounded every day. We are being attacked and are doing our best against superior fire power. Andrews has three selectmen and our lawyer in his pocket. Information is very difficult to get.


This site provides information and a base camp.

Bill thanks for sticking with us but don't sacrifice yourself. If you need to, buy a plane ticket and leave Wareham behind. I think we still have a chance to save Wareham even if we don't meet Dan's standards.

I forgot to mention...this is the ONLY site you will be able to express your REAL opinions, and not fear retribution or being banned.(Within limits, of course.).

THAT is the guarantee of this site, Menrva...protection of identity and freedom of speech...

I spent this morning studying the site's statistics back to day one, Sept 19, 2006, a Tuesday, I believe.

Current traffic is up, and its reassuring to see more folks reading older threads for background on the current mess. That's putting lipstick on a pig, though. Daily volume of new posts is way off.

This site costs chump change, next to nothing, and it will remain here as long as I have a pulse. Maintenance is laughably easy.

Problem is, this has become a spectator sport and all the teams have quit.

Menrva...l believe Bill means that everyone is watching, but no-one is PARTICIPATING.

At one time this site was the hub of political activity and activism, filled with people with real names who fought with every breath to change the government, and they DID.

I think they, like occasionally Bill, feel as though there isn't any reason to continue fighting because nothing is being done and nothing has really changed from the past BOS and administration. Incompetence and even corruption still exists, and no one in power is doing anything to change it.

It is easy to be burned out on politics unless you are a political junky.

The fact is in order for change to truly take place, there is no time for rest. Resolutions to problems are an ongoing fight, and once you let down your guard, or lean back and relax, your opposition ambushes you and by the time you realize it...it's too late. Prime examples are Schneider and Begley.

If you don't want a recall, then it will be a long time for you to fill the BOS with your candidates and people who can do the job.

The problem is...you are already about out of time. I just read today that a little City next to mine is facing a
forty-two million dollar shortfall. (The City of Palmetto, Fl., if anyone wants to check).

If you can't retrieve those who participated before, look for new people who are not burned out. I am sure you will find that the "old" group will be willing to help, just not willing to put in the constant time needed to win elections, or to put together a recall.

My opinion, of course :)
