jane couldn't take the high road. it's ok for her to publicly criticize cara for her letter to the editor but she sits still while her board members attack private citizens during bos meetings. brenda and brucie get sued over it costing money to taxpayers and jane doesn't speak up.

the proper way for leaders or bosses to deal with a single issue like the letter to the editor would have been for jane to have a private conversation expressing her displeasure. to make a public statement to embarrass cara shows every reader that jane is petty.  she acts like a bitch who never does anything wrong. let's vote her out in april. take a look at what she said.

Selectmen Chairman Jane Donahue agreed — to a point.

"For the most part, with the exception of a rather disappointing Letter to the Editor that appeared in The Standard-Times just this week (in which Winslow explained why she cast the one dissenting vote on a development issue), I feel the new board members have tried to put the campaign rhetoric behind them and are moving forward with learning the ropes and the reality of the complexities of governing; grappling with the issues of fairness and legality," she said.

Cara Winslow has every right to write a letter to the editor. 

When she was attacked for baking a cake, she defended herself in a meeting and the tin hats threw a fit and said she should have written a letter to the editor.

So she writes a letter to the editor about a Makepeace vote she felt she had to clarify, and the tin hats throw another fit saying she should have talked about it during a meeting.

Except had she talked about it in a meeting, then they'd say she should have written a letter.

It just goes round and round and round - the tin hats just want to attack people and not have them say anything in their defense.

That's because the tin hats are gutless cowards and bullies who can dish it but cry like babies if people ever stand up for themselves.

Their arguments are brainless and idiotic and only work when they try to intimidate people into not telling the truth.

???

Even the ousted Sauvageau said he was "pleasantly optimistic and surprised" that "this particular Board of Selectmen has continued to advance the agenda" established when he was in office.

What aganda was that, Sweet Brucey ?  Destroying the reputation of OUR community and making us the laughing stock right up to the state house ?
Spending more legal fees than ever in OUR history ?  Firing more employees in two or three years than ever in OUR history ?  Violating our HOME RULE CHARTER and by-laws more than any other board in OUR history ?
Sweet agenda !

I could go on but...well, you know.

..more like time to vote her ass out of office just like her race-baiting husband..

Click into the wayback machine...

Why would the Standard Times even bother to interview Sweet Brucey?  This clown came in 4th in a 5 way race.

Sometimes I am disappointed in the Standard Times.  They did an excellent job of exposing the misdeeds of the Hypocrite Elite and therefore the informed citizenry voted to "throw the bums out."  Only problem is, only half of the bums were thrown out.  Two more bums have to be thrown out of office next April.

The Standard Times stopped shining a light on the cockroachs a year early.  Sweet Brucey tried in March to reform his image, but there wasn't enough polish in the world to make that turd shine.

Brenda and Janey, on the other hand, have a whole year - they're going to try and hope the people will forget the shenanigans they engaged in when they were a part of the Brucey Bunch.

We have to keep reminding the short-memoried masses.

But...P-Span...how do you really feel?

I did a search of the name that Steve used to blog on this site: Searay240 and here is something to make you think. It was a thread started by Steve about why he moved to Onset:

Over the past several months, I have seen and personally witnessed some interesting reactions by our current leadership including the Board of Selectmen, and their reactions when a citizen dares to ask them a simple question.

I was in the hot seat one night actually in favor of something the BOS supports, and got cut to pieces, lied to and the dismissed like I was someone who had no right to ask a question.

This town belongs to it's people "all of us"!!!

We select 5 people to sit on our Board of Selectman to maintain our right to govern. We hire a Town Administrator to run day to day operations. There is a check and balance in place. And on major issues we the people decide what the right answer should be. That is the beauty of the people

Our town does not belong to any Media organization, broadcast network, blog board, the internet, or any other infomation outlet. THE TOWN BELONGS TO EACH OF US.

I have seen that slipping away over the past several months and I believe it is time we change direction.


Later that evening he wrote:

I believe that it's time to bring about concensus into our deliberations. Attract points of view from both sides and have an adult discussion. What I have found is usually the best answer to move forward will come somewhere in the middle and both sides will not always agree, but the fact that they had input can live with the final determination.

We don't need to tear apart our government structure, we don't need to continue fighting from the websites, we need serious people to discuss serious issues.

That is the form of government I would bring to Wareham/Onset, a government made up of the people that have strong opinions on both sides of an issue. Sit down and discuss an issue and come to resolution that is best for moving the town forward.

I believe I can have a part in changing how our town is perceived by other towns around us. We can seek businesses to come here, and improve our jobless rate, I feel no person is more happy than having a job and receiving money for their efforts. We can provide those things in Wareham, and improve our stature in the region so the first place a business looks to relocate is here.

Thanks to the person who also searched out searay240 and sent me this quote from Steve Holmes--the reason is obvious!!!  Now I remember why I voted for this guy!!! Where did he go?

We have all witnessed on tape how citizens are treated when they come before the BOS during "CITIZEN'S PARTICIPATION" great thing about tapes no spin real facts.

If they treat regular citizens that way while they know they are being taped, one can only imagine how they treat people behind closed doors? Oh yes we have that on tape as well.

It time that all citizen's stand up and say no more!!! This is our town!!

If we can't get the truth on small issues how are we supposed to trust them on issues like Westfield, changing town government,computer audits,library........?

That's right WE CAN'T!!!!
