The Sky is Falling Let's Go Tell The King

It’s been a month since the tornado hit our area causing three deaths and a tremendous amount of damage. I had a brief conversation regarding what has been done and what is not being done by various agencies, specifically in the town of Southbridge. We had two different opinions; you’ll be able to guess which one was mine.

Will They Ever Listen

This is sort of a follow-up on a previous post, which seems to have generated some discussion in various forums. Somewhere on this blog site is a disclaimer which states the opinions expressed in this blog are those of the author and not necessarily those of the tea party movement or other members. Now that we got that out of the way...

The Answer to Beacon Hill

Last night at our monthly meeting we had the newly elected representative from the sixth Worcester district, Peter Durant as an honored guest. You know, some questions are better off left unasked. In this case the questions was "Peter, are things as bad as they say on Beacon Hill?"

One Tea Partiers Opinion

I have written both here and elsewhere about what my opinion on exactly what the Tea Party is about and what I believe it stands for. I have also written how I feel the “Tea Party” name has been co-opted by others to forward their own agendas. Those of us who truly believe in what the tea party movement stands for, might be considered by some as eccentric or nut cases, we like to consider ourselves as passionate. We believe in the principles that this country was founded on and we believe the country has strayed from these principles.

Even though we are constantly called names and bombarded with negative press, mostly by people who have no idea what we are about, we continue to go on. 

Doing It Right The First Time

The last post I wrote talked about the latest election related issue in Southbridge, that of the wrong information being printed on the absentee ballots. A local Southbridge blogger posted an update on the situation.

Southbridge Election Officials Need to Pay Attention

It seems tour friend the Town Clerk in Southbridge may have had another "oops" moment when she sent out the absentee ballots to our military personnel and others and wrote "Do Not Vote For More Than Two" for School Committee, when she really meant three. This brings up some interesting questions, especially if the school committee race is close.

Send Us Your Poor, Your Criminals

Isn’t it great to live in a state where criminals are treated better than tax payers? Of course I am talking about the latest move by our brilliant Governor “We want ‘em all” Deval Patrick to decide he isn’t going to follow his buddy Barack’s lead and he isn’t going to sign onto the “Secure Communities Act”. After all, Deval wouldn’t want to hurt anyone feelings by sending a poor, downtrodden, rapist or murderer back to his own country to face trial. No, instead we should welcome them here, give them free stuff and let them kill and rape our legal citizens.

Thoughts on the Sturbridge Town Meeting Warrant

Monday, June 6 is the annual town meeting in Sturbridge. In the small towns of New England this is a tradition which goes back to the founding of our communities. Unlike towns like Southbridge as an example, who no longer hold "Town Meetings" in the same sense as Sturbridge does, this is the main way for voters to have a say on exactly how their money is spent,
