Ummmm  I thought it was to find illegal porn and online gambling? Remember this was done after employees were laid off and furloughed. And these bos spent our tax money to see who is blogging on this site. Vote the all out!

According to the minutes, during the Tuesday, May 26, 2009 session, Town Moderator John Donahue asked if town counsel would represent him in his defense of a lawsuit from William Whitehouse, who runs the website www.warehamobserver.com. The Board of Selectmen voted to give Donahue counsel if the case goes forward. Selectman Jane Donahue, John Donahue's wife, recused herself from the vote.

Gee, there's a surprise. Town Counsel Richard Bowen spent that hearing playing grade school theatrics and insisted his appearance was on his own time.

what was the town moderator doing at an executive session  that no one knew about in the first place ?????

I wondered that myself.

Bobo must be smoking some potent weed if he actually thinks the release of these  minutes are good for the selectmen.  They're the worst thing ever for the selectmen - they confirm what we've all been saying all along - A WITCHHUNT ON THE TAXPAYER'S DIME!

These minutes confirm ethical misconduct on the select-clowns' part that we've been pointing out all along plus new ethical issues - like why the hell is the town picking up the tab for a lawyer for Curly?  Just one more reason why it's just a recipe for ethical disaster to have a moderator married to a selectman.  Vote that bum out!!!

I can't even begin to count all of the ethical problems for the selectmen that result from these minutes.

From BOBO's latest:

"When the DA ruled favorably on Susan Williams Gifford’s open meeting law complaint, the selectmen were told that they had to turn over all executive session minutes to the DA’s office. If you think that smells like a trap designed to force selectmen into revealing how much they knew about allegations made against Mark Gifford, you are not alone. Sauvageau thinks so too. He said selectmen intentionally left out some of the details of their investigation in the minutes of their executive session meetings knowing full well that's all the DA ever really wanted"



Intentional deception to fool the DA.  Isn't this criminal behavior?

I just wanted to clear up a piece of misinformation that is now being pushed by Larry McDonald. The town spent $30,000 on the computer audit, not $100,000 as he is claiming.


Not true they have spent that money already. The figure has been given already. And we know that it will cost hundreds of dollars an hour to have the company go through them

BREAKING NEWS: After reading Bobo's latest column, scientists now confirm that Bobo has pressed his lips up against Sweet Brucey's butt with such great suction that a powerful vaccuum seal between Bobo's lips and Brucey's butt has now been formed.

The scientists further report that the suction seal is now so great, that if Bobo were to ever pull his lips away from Brucey's butt and break the seal, a collossal vortex would be ripped in the space time continuum, causing the universe to collapse on itself and be sucked into said vortex or "black hole" if you prefer.

Scientists assure everyone not to worry, however, because the chances of Bobo ever pulling his lips off of Sweet Brucey's butt are incredibly small to non-existant.

Went to Lion King with the family at the Opera House in Boston. It was a birthday present from my mom. Moms are cool.


OMG WHAT A LOSER. THE MOM HAS TO TAKE THIS FAMILY EVERYWHERE. CHRIST MAN GET A JOB TO PROVIDE FOR YOUR FAMILY YOU LOSER

YEAH HOWS THAT GOING YOU PAY THE BACK RENT YET?

STATE FILING FEES?

Seriously, this is what is wrong with Wareham. While Michael Schneider pens a letter to the editor condemning this site, the exact same type of behavior is exhibited in Sunday Night Chat (the other observer). Mr. Schneider participates in that chat so he is aware of the comments made, but he makes no mention of them in his opinion piece. If you want to lose credibility, keep pointing fingers.

For the record, Lenny Skynyrd was at Bob's meeting (the initial meeting). He was the individual who was standing as you walk into the auditorium. He made the suggestion that all opinions should be heard. He was summarily shouted down. Apparently he holds a grudge? He is certainly an angry man!

The infamous six minutes (reminds me of Nixon's secretary named kennedy, and the 18-minute gap, if memory serves)
included a discussion of "auditing" laptop computers, specifically those in the Mun. Maint. & Sewer Depts. There seemed to be a thread that allowed that laptops had not been included in the first go-round, and that laptop computers were a different breed, with different pricing for the audit. (Hear comments by cronin the Barbarian)

Are those two departments the only ones under the purview of the BoS with laptop computers? No!

How about the Treasurer/Collector's office? Were those laptop computers part of the computer audit? Or, were they given a pass? Hmmmmmm?

One has to wonder, does one not, that if you are a tax cheat at two of the three levels of goverment we all deal with, that perhaps you are also a tax cheat at the third (i.e. local) level of government. Don't know. But surely, the computer audit including the T/C laptops would clarify this question to the edification of all.

Why is it taking so long to give the public (El BoBo is NOT the public) the answers found, or more likely not found, in the computer audit?
