Definite Strong Arming!!

This Oldie, but Goodie on Kisselback I Found REALLY Interesting.

Several years ago, the Bensalem Chamber of Commerce dissolved itself and many members switched to the Lower Bucks Chamber. It has been said that one reason for the dissolution was business owners and managers in Bensalem getting sick and tired of the mayor's repeated demands for charitable and political donations and participation in his pet projects. Many businesses and property owners along Route 13 chose not to participate in the Route 13 beautification project which was one of the mayor's pet projects. Property owner Ed Kisselback participated, however, and got a new paved parking lot behind his strip mall for free. The mayor has used township Republican TV channel 22 repeatedly to berate Bensalem business owners for not signing up for the Kiwanis flag display program, another one of the mayor's pet projects.
