LETS SEE WHERE DO WE BEGIN?


WHO DID BRENDA THINK SHE WAS TALKING TOO? SHE SPOKE TO SOMEONE IN THE AUDIENCE EARLIER AND THEN DECIDED TO BLURT OUT THAT HER HUSBAND WAS CHEATING ON HER IN A PUBLIC MEETING? DOES THIS MAKE ANY SENSE TO ANYONE? RESIGN IMMEDIATELY

I agree, there is no excuse for what she blurted out. SHe did issue a public apology and stated it was wrong, but I think there needs to be a public statement made at the next BOS meeting.

Following Cara Pillsbury’s departure, selectman Brenda Eckstrom asked an audience member if the woman who left was the one whose husband has been cheating on her.


    Eckstrom told the Observer that she didn’t realize the woman was Cara Pillsbury.


    “I would like to apologize to her,” Eckstrom said. “I didn’t know it was her. I ha d spoken to somebody who was in the audience earlier in the day. I thought it was somebody else."

I see Brenda.  If it "WAS" the "PERSON" you "THOUGHT" you were referring to, then it would have been okay to make such a statement?!

You are pathetic, slimy, piece of trash!  I can believe people put you in office. 

Pack it up and save yourself future embarrassment and financial damage.

If any town employee had said such a thing while on the clock, the BOS would be calling for their head.

Call for their heads Wareham..... but be prepared for them to shit on you, your family, husband/wife, girlfriend/boyfriend, life mate, etc.....

I am new to this site after being a subscriber to the Wareham Observer. I am a former Police Officer, teacher,  and Selectman in Wareham. I have heard many terrible things about this site, how obnoxious you all are and the agenda that the owner of the site supposedly has. Nonsense!! I love this site. This is the type of site that I would have hosted when I was a Selectman. I only, in the beginning, as a "newbee", ask that all of you be civil. But, working on the history of the site, you are the future of the Town of Wareham. I hope that you learn to be polite, and understand that you may, on occasion , disagree with people. But, let's agree to disagree, and not be disagreeable.
I will be sending more soon, but, I am no longer an anti-Bill Whitehouse person. I believe that if we have discussion we will never be enemies.
Let's talk facts and experience and the ability to educate. I look forward to this forum.

AGAIN BROCKTON BRENDA YOUR STORY MAKES NO SENSE WHATSOEVER. YOU EXPECT US TO BELIEVE THAT YOU WERE TALKING WITH A WOMAN IN THE AUDIENCE. WAS THIS ON TAPE? WHAT WAS HER NAME? WHAT CLOTHING DID SHE HAVE ON? AND THEN YOU BASH ANOTHER WOMAN THAT GOT UP AND LEFT??? WHAT WAS THE TIME SPAN ON THE SPEAKING OF THE OTHER WOMAN MAYBE A COUPLE OF MINUTES??? YOUR FULL OF SHIT. IVE WATCHED THIS TAPE ON MY DVR SEVERAL TIMES TODAY. THE WOMAN THAT GOT BASHED SAID NOTHING. IT APPEARED SHE LEFT BECAUSE BRUCE STARTED SCREAMING AT BILL WHITEHOUSE. THE WOMAN SAID NOTHING AND JUST SAT IN THE AUDIENCE. A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO SLAGER SAYS IT WAS OK FOR WAREHAMPROPHETES TO SAY MJP SHOULD BE CONDEMNED TO HELL AND LIVER CANCER AND YET BILL WHITEHOUSE CANT ASK ABOUT REPORTS THAT HE HAS COLLECTED ABOUT A PUBLIC OFFICIAL?

I don't know which is worse - than we have a selectwoman who has demonstrated that she has ZERO impulse control, or that the reporter that claims to be the toughest hard hitting journalist around is buying (or pretending to) buy that "Oh sorry I meant to defame someone else!" bullshit excuse.

These people's hatred of the late Mrs. P is pathological.  She passed away.  What more could they possibly want?  To take their hatred out on her daughter because she attended a public meeting?  Why are they so messed up they take vendettas out on people's children?

And keep in mind, yesterday morning, right before this incident, Ragman did chastize this site because a blogger was prevented from repeating claims that God speaks through her and told her that Mrs P was struck with a fatal illness for disagreeing with the BOS, and that we all will be similarly struck by God if we disagree with the BOS.

She knows because God told her.  And Ragman wants her to be able to keep saying that.

These are the lunatics that run our town, people.  As I said before, this town doesn't need a recall  - it needs a looney bin paddy wagon with the men in the white lab coats and nets.

GUESS WHO ARE BEST BUDDIES AND HAVE BEEN SEEN SEVERAL  TIMES  TOGETHER AT TEMPEST KNOB BEACH  BROCTON BRENDA  AND THE CAT LADY  LIZ PEZOLI , WOW HOW SICK THEY HAVE NO FREINDS AND HAVE TO VISIT EACH OTHER TO HAVE SOMEONE TO TALK TO, I KNOW THEY USED TO GET TOGETHER  OFTEN TO GIVE LIZ SECRET INFO FROM THE EXECUTIVE SESSTIONS SO THE RAG WOULD PRINT THEM FIRST AND GET THE SCOOP.

I checked out the tape again and really, there's just no excuse for Brenda's boorish behavior.  She's lost it and she should resign.

Mrs Pillsbury's daughter sat in the back, never spoke a word, she made no disparaging remarks about Bruce.   For a master bullshit artist like the Ragman, it is really surprising that he'd lie about something that was caught on tape.  I guess his bullshit skills are slipping.

Here's a bullshit refresher course for you Ragman - don't lie about things that are on tape.

You know what's funny?  This board and the Ragman, they always say, we want to work with everyone, we embrace everyone, we care about everyone!  We're not partisan!

Yeah right, unless you are related to someone whose guts they hate then they rip you to shreds on camera from a selectman's seat.

Don't take my word for it.  Look at your tape yourself.  The woman did nothing to warrant this brutal attack.

I've said it before, I'll say it again - this BOS isn't a board for the whole town.  They're only a board for those who kiss their ass.  Everyone else be damned.

Two times we have seen Selectmen make statements that were completely unacceptable. In both cases, the Selectmen were way out of line. Bruce's comments about the officer and the racial bias of the department, and Brenda's off the wall comment about a private citizen that suggested her husband was "sleeping around". Is this the type of people we want to represent our best interests? I said it before and I will say it again. The Selectmen are embarrasing the town. This is not a one time occurrence! There is nothing that makes this acceptable.

Ham is right, this group of Selectdorks don't care about anyone but themselves and their friends. They continue to get away with things that would get a normal person fired or banned. Now I have to question the people who support them? What are you thinking? Do they really represent your best interests?

What ever happened to Eliz P?  Is that light still on?  Is she around?

Mr. O'connell,  I have a question for you as I recognized your name from the title on record as a member of the Board of Selectmen from back in 1977.  As you likely recall, the Selectmen then voted and recorded the order of taking to condition any future development to include a "school, municipal buildings, and/or recreational, playground or park purposes".  I'm not sure if you are aware but the current BOS want to develop the site with affordable housing and they've never acquired a vote of town meeting to modify the condition within the title to do so.  My question is, how might you suggest to our leaders the proper way to proceed ?
