Would you clarify please?... I didn't understand what you meant about the "Little Bobby's nonstop horror show" and how it relates to the picture.

Robert Slager doesn't relate in any way to Wareham. Little Bobby's "visioning" sees nothing more than a cash cow for him and his, Brockton high rises and a paved bay.

I also didn't understand why you want to ask people to recall Cruz, especially now that he is such an important swing vote.

Mr Cruz has supported all the cronie hack hires at extortion wages. That's all I have to know. Your mileage may vary.

I assume you were in a flying vehicle, Bill.
I would not be surprised to hear that you simply hovered over your beautiful target!

Me too!

Amen!

I just want to make a few points:
BillW, Mr. Cruz, in fact, was the sole vote against hiring CEDA Director Chris Riley because he felt the salary (remember the whole spech about how Marilyn Walley made too much money) was too high. Mr. Riley was hired at a salary of $86,000.00 annually, far more then Walley made.

P-Span, the Police Chief position is Civil Service, that means he cannot have a "contract" that is subject to renewal. He can only be dismissed for cause. It isn't easy to fire people covered by Civil Service, so the appointment should be considered carefully.

P-Span, I do believe that Mr. Andrews has alienated Mrs. Winslow. Personally I think that was a bad political move on his part, being that he is a career political hack I would think he would know that pissing one of your 5 bosses off during their first month in office is a bad move. He obviously believes that he is secure with 3 votes to get past his probation. That is the only reason I can think of that he would so blatently lie to her on tv. I do not know whether she will still support him staying past his probation, that is a risk an unemployable political hack really shouldn't take. As a footnote I do believe he has been spotted with Jane & John and John's sister Mary Beth having dinner. If that is where he is getting his political advice then it explains a lot.

Section  7 - 10    Recall of Elected Officials

(a)    Application - Any person who holds an elected town office,
        with more than six months remaining of the term of office,
        may be recalled from the office, by the voters, in the manner
         provided in this section.

(b)    Recall Petitions - Twenty-five or more voters may file with
        the town clerk an affidavit containing the name of the officer
        whose recall is sought and a statement of the grounds upon
which the petition is based.  The town clerk shall deliver to the
        said voters petition blanks demanding said recall, printed forms of
        which he shall keep available. The blanks may be completed by
        writing or typewriting; they shall be addressed to the board of 
        selectmen; they shall contain the names of the persons who filed
        the affidavit and the grounds for recall as stated in the affidavit;
        they shall demand the election of a successor to the office; and they
           shall be dated and signed by the town clerk.  A copy of the petition
        shall be kept on file in the office of the town clerk in a record book
        maintained for that purpose.  Notwithstanding  any general or
        special law or charter provision or by-law of the town of
        Wareham, recall petitions shall be returned and filed in the office
        of the town clerk within fourteen days following the date the
petitions were issued, signed by at least ten percent of the total
        number of registered voters duly recorded on the registration list
        of the town clerk as of the preceding town election.   
        The town clerk  shall, within twenty-five hours  following such filing,
        submit said petitions to the registrars of voters who shall forthwith
        certify thereon the number of signatures which are names of  voters.

Note: The last sentence of the first paragraph in 7 - 10 (b) was changed to what appears above by a vote of the  fall town meeting
        of October 20, 1980 under Article 37.   It was approved as Chapter 234
        of the Acts of 1981 on June 4, 1981 by the state legislature.

(c)        Recall Election - If the petition shall be certified by the registrars of
        voters to be sufficient, the town clerk shall forthwith submit the same
        to the board of selectmen.  Upon its receipt of the certified petition, the
        board of selectmen shall forthwith give written notice of said petition
        and certificate to the person whose recall is sought.  If said officer does
        not resign his office within five days following delivery of the said notice,
        the board of selectmen shall order an election to be held not less than
        thirty-five nor more than sixty days after the date of the registrars'
        certificate of the sufficiency of the petition.  If, however, another town
        election is to occur within sixty days after the date of the said certificate,
        the board of selectmen shall hold the recall election on the date of said
        other town election.  If a vacancy occurs in the office after a recall
        election has been ordered, the election shall nevertheless proceed as
        provided in this section, but only the ballots for candidates need be counted.

(d)    Nomination of Candidates - An officer whose recall is sought may not be a candidate to succeed himself at the recall election.  The nomination of
        candidates, the publication of the warrant for the recall election, and the
        conduct of the same shall all be in accordance with the provisions of other
    laws relating to elections, unless otherwise provided in this section.

    (e)    Propositions on ballot - Ballots used at a recall election shall state the
        following propositions in the order indicated:
       
            For the recall of (name of officer)        /  /
            Against the recall of (name of officer)    /  /
       
        Adjacent to each proposition, there shall be a place to vote for either
        of the said propositions.  After the propositions shall appear the
        word "candidates" and the names of candidates arranged alphabetically,
        by surname.  If a majority of  the votes cast upon the question of recall
        is in the affirmative, the candidate receiving the highest number of votes
        on the question is in the negative, the ballots for candidates need not be
        counted, except as provided in (c) above.

    (f)    Officeholder - The incumbent shall continue to perform the duties of
his office until the recall election.  If he is not recalled in the election he
        shall continue in office for the remainder of his unexpired term, subject
        to recall as before, except as provided in this section.  If the officer is recalled in the election, he shall be deemed removed upon the qualification
        of his successor who shall hold office during the unexpired term.  If the
        successor fails to qualify within five days after receiving notification
        of his election, the incumbent  shall thereupon be deemed removed and
        the office vacant.

(g)        Repeat of Recall Petition - No recall petition shall be filed against an
        officer within three months after he takes office, or in the case of an officer
        subjected to a recall election and not recalled thereby, until at least six
        months after the election at which his recall was submitted to the voters.

Marny is once again The Voice of Reason.

Attempting to get rid of Slager by responding to his writing is like trying to get rid of squirrels by scattering corn on your lawn.

In the spirit of the one & only Spiro Agnew...

Is the BoBo a 'Nattering Nabob of Narcissism'?

Ahhh, BillW...you bring back memories.

Working in RI, as I did for several time periods, one quickly gets accustomed to the operative spirit in place there. Crossing paths with Congressman St. Germain (Woonsocket) and another former governor (Phil), both with plans to get rich quick using Fed Funds. Being at a group's summer cook-out in Reboboth, ma, when the mayor of Providence arrived in a helicopter to greet the gang, who had been waiting for their 'Buddy' to appear. The following year, being at their annual cook-out in Foster, RI (at the Conn. border), when a full-scale riot broke out, requiring the State Police to come and quell it. Yes. RI is unique in many ways.

I knew some members of the DiPrete family, not the former Gov. The people I knew were straight arrows.

And Safire! The man could conjure up a phrase or two, no doubt about it.

It is interesting to note that some point to Safire and his writings for Nixon/Agnew as leading directly to the extreme postings seen today in politics on all levels. But, if you go back in time, sharp comments are not exactly new. Just ask old T. Jefferson, J. Adams. A. Jackson, A. Lincoln, etc. "Politics ain't beanbag."
