Top Events in Bensalem For 2011

January:

We begin this year with a $6.5 million dollar deficit, that was "solved" by "downsizing" over half a dozen employees, including the township's fire marshal (We still do not have one!), and domestic violence service coordinator. Instead of answering the people's questions concerning this, our Mayor and council members, hide behind closed doors, and conveniently cancel council meetings.

February:

Introducing Snowmageddon!!! This past February, for the second year in a row, we had two MAJOR snowfalls that the township was NOT properly prepared for. What was the end result?? We went OVER our allotted snow budget!

March:

We have the beginning of the end, of the school board, in which Mr. Rothberg is forced to resign, over attendance issues. Later others are forced to resign, including one who had drugs within their home.

June:

Things get intense for Union, when "Haman" shuts them down. Union goes on the attack stating their side via their own press conference, and Haman continues to slander the fire company. It's re-opened, but Haman's choice of chief is GONE in less than a month!!

July:

A very nasty RACIST neighbor causes a ruckus in the Linconia section of Trevose. A STUPID cop utters the N word, a child is charged with a crime she did NOT commit, and a public safety director, who continues to stick his foot in his mouth.

I also learned that good ole Freddie boy is really a fan of this site, so I just had to put something special on here just for him. Freddie, just so you know, I am not about to give in to your bully tactics. I used the name of Hitler, because it was the strongest thing I could find, however I can always use others. How about, Benito Musselini, Edi Amin, Slobodan Milosovic, and Saddam Hussein!!I have said this before and I will say it again....................
I DON'T GIVE IN TO BULLIES!!!

August:

This was an interesting month, in that we experienced a MAJOR hurricane, as well as a Tropical Storm. What was very apparent was the township's lack of preparedness, and their panicking attitudes on live TV. WE also see an incompetent Deputy Public Safety Director in action, when he "suggests" that Union Fire Co. shut down during the worst of the storm. Then Haman has the nerve to call the FBI on Union Fire Co., over their boat grant, but it backfires.

September:

For several weeks, we Dems start asking questions, and the council as well as the mayor, keep "cancelling" their meetings. I guess they're afraid to admit the truth: the town is going broke!! During this time, we also learn, that the total cost for this winter and for Irene and Lee: $769,000!!

October:

The new state of the art fire training center opens in Croydon, and all of Haman's lies about the one in Bensalem are now a reality. In an attempt to cover this up, he tells all of the volunteer fire companies in the township not to go to the dedication. At this point, We finally learn that ALL the allegations made against the Union Fire Company and its former Chief are false! This was admitted to by the Director of Public Safety! The Director of Public Safety told members of the community that he was willing to write a letter clearing the Union Fire Company and its former Chief if it didn't make the township look bad. There has been no letter as of yet. I guess there is no way of clearing the fire company and its former chief without the township looking bad!

November:

All I can say, is that people had better take notice of the areas where we kicked some MAJOR booty in, because there are pissed off people there who are on to the ways of this mayor and its council Now, we have another budget deficit, and this time they WON'T say how much it is!! If you want to know just how much, I have copies of the township's budget proposal, and it's NOT pretty. Like I said before, I feel sorry for this town and anyone who owns a home here, but it's going to get REALLY bad now, and I have a bad feeling that in 5 years, this town is going to be like Harrisburg........ BANKRUPT!!

December:

Haman and Nabal, in an attempt to make themselves look good this year, take over an honorable cop's fundraising for needy families in the area, and drag a poor woman and her family on Fox 29 News, to "promote" their "good deeds". In reality, it's a publicity stunt, to make themselves look good, after all the harm they have done to this town.

The ultimate in an "in your face" to Haman, is when Susan Finkelstein's conviction is overturned YIPPEE!!! Haman, you are so in trouble!! You violated this woman's civil rights, slandered her, and a whole lot more. I warned you that your sin was going to find you out, and this is just the beginning of God's judgment against you!

SO LONG 2011!!
LET'S PRAY 2012 BRINGS BACK HONOR AND INTEGRITY TO BENSALEM!!
