Molly,

If there's one thing I know about bullies, it is this: 

THEY CAN DISH IT, BUT THEY CAN'T TAKE IT.

A schoolyard bully will pick on you all day long, but get fed up and defend yourself, and that same tough guy bully is the first one to go running and crying off to tell teacher.

Same thing with these adult bullies who never grew up.  They attacked, and attacked, and attacked anyone who stood in their way, they kept those attacks up long after the people were no longer in their way, for no reason other than pure spite, they kept their attacks up so long that they put people in a position where they had no choice but to defend themselves and start throwing some criticism back.

They criticized all day long, but throw a little criticism back their way and they stomp their feet and start crying.

I can't count the number of times where I read in the rag a quote from Brucey saying something to the effect of "Politics is tough, people shouldn't take it personally, etc."

Well, sorry, but politics is tough for everyone.  You people made Wareham this way.  Don't be upset now that the way you made it isn't working for you.  People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones, etc.

If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen.

Any other cliches I can throw out?

I wonder if we can get Bruce's statement last night (about the library) where the citizens of this town are demanding accountability, open government, and fiscal responsibility????? IF this applies to the library, why does it not apply to the Selectmen and other elected officials?

I have no problem posting here or saying to anyone I can't stand Bruce, Brenda, Weasel, Dirt Thief, John, Maryann, and Butt Monkey. I also have no use for Barney Frank but he makes a legitimate point, one these idiots should learn form since they worship him. But, he is also a real politician, these people are all politician wanna be's. Actually they are just wanna be's period. Wanna be a journalist, wanna be a moderator, wanna be a manager, wanna be employed, wanna be a criminal, wanna be a deab beat, and the list goes on.
They are useless, incompetant, corrupt scoundrels. That is all they are. They are the people that show up in the yearbook as least likely to succeed. Thsi si the truth my blogging brothers and sisters, not said out of my dislike, this is just how it is. A group of losers who amounted to nothing in life trying to run everyone else's. Charity begins at home, straighten out your own mess and then try to help out with ours. Until then, go home!

i defy ANYONE to show me that Barney Frank doesn't have this group of clowns pegged for exactly what they are: phonies.

The Barney Frank I have come to respect  would have NOTHING, as  in NOT ANYTHING, to do with  the Wareham BOS.

I will strive to have a copy of this before him.

According to an article by Ruth Thompson in the Courier: "Donahue said the best way to ignore the negativity in town is to “ignore it”

“Don’t discuss it, don’t look at it, don’t read it,” she said. “The best way to shut it down is to ignore it. We have a town to run and a future to shape.”

Thank goodness. It is in print. Now they HAVE to ignore us and get on with running the town.


And also, "Begley stressed this was “not a group” and that they chose to “channel their energy into thought-provoking debate.'"


How do you define group? Mrs. Begley, Mr. Schneider, Jane and Brenda. Sounds groupy to me.

The Courier also has this:  "Sauvageau said Selectman Jane Donahue had approached him with an idea of having some sort of public forum similar to the idea Schneider and Begley presented."

"Donahue thanked Schneider and Begley for coming before the board. She said her idea was to have a night of citizens participation, but that she would be more than happy to work with Schneider and Begley and come up with a date for the forum."

Coincidence? You decide. They have the keys.

Finally Ruth wrote: "“Together we need to foster an attempt to begin to create an atmosphere that moves us away from the negativity that has plagued our community on local Web sites and other venues,” Begley read."

Here is another test---ask people you know, or neighbors etc. if they know about this site. Go up to a stranger in Shaw's and ask that person about this site.  If it is a plague to our community, shouldn't everyone know about it?

Barney Frank thought the racial baiting was deplorable :). I spoke with him right after the entire racial baiting /meeting fiasco. He talked too fast (being southern, this is a problem I face quite often) but we had a very interesting phone call.

Did he think it was deplorable enough to call out Mr Moderator (or Bobo)?..Donahue has been a loyal soldier for years, even driving around with a Barney Frank liscense plate for quite some time!!..that fast talking may have been lip service, as the Congressman, Sen Pacheco, Gov Patrick, and others have always counted on John overseeing their local campaigns..hell, he even got the long-anticipated job for life!! (though as expected, he fucked that up!)

Actions speak louder than words, and as yet there's been no apology or retraction from either of the race-baiters (nor will there ever be)..so as deplorable as he may have thought it was, I doubt Barney has crossed Mr and Mrs Moderator off his Holiday card list!!

GIVE ME A BREAK BRENDA EXCREMENT CHOKED ON HER TEARS ,THIS DRUNK HAS MALIGNED THE INTEGRITY OF SEVERAL PEOPLE WHO HAVE COME IN FRONT OF THE BOARD ,AND HAS ACTED LIKE AN ASS WHEN SHE BUMBED INTO DICK WHEELER AND SCREMED GET YOUR HANDS OFF OF ME MR WHEELER , AND LOOK AT THYE CRAP THE DIBETIC RAG MAN WRITES , SO I GUESS THE SELECTMAN CROOKS WANT US TO BE NICE TO THEM AS THEY  BANG THE INTEGRITY OF MANY GOOD CITZENS  WHO DISAGREE WITH  THEM, BREDA BET A JOB , DONT WATE TO GET 50K AS A CITY COUNCILLER BECAUSE YOUR MAYOR GOV WILL NOT PASS,AND I WANT TO KNOW WHAT IS YOUT TRUE HAIR COLOR BLACK OR BLEACHED BLOND , BY THE WAY BROCTON BRENDA LAY OFF THE BOOZE YOULOOK LIKE  A LUSH ON TV, AND WHEN WILL YOU  TELL THE TRUTH ABOUT YOUR LIES ON YOUR BANK LOAN MS BROCTON BRENDA.

Believe me folks...Our local leader is considered a liability by all the state dems mentioned.  ...plus another in DC.

One would wonder why these elected officials would have anything to do with Donahue..unfortunately, Mr Moderator has created a voting block in Wareham..look no further than our last Selectman's race..very ineffective choice thanks in part to John and Jane (and let's not forget Brockton Brenda!)
