We Can Either "Take It", or FIGHT!!

 http://www.phillyburbs.com/my_town/hamptons/democrats-create-their-own-bed-by-laying-in-it-/article_9825f5f8-3279-5eb3-9082-8849f086f95d.html
 This is for all the democrats in Bensalem, and Bucks County who have excuses, instead of solutions for what is going on here. I believe that we can be a strong organization again, if we have the courage to speak out on the issues, without personal attacks, and offer actual solutions to this town, so they know we are for real.

1. Please let me ask this, and I am asking this with all due respect, but as to your comments on the firefighters, what have you done for them? When was the last time, you called Steve Carmichael, and spoke with him? When was the last time, you yourself contacted Union Fire Co. and asked how they were doing? You Dem's, state that they haven't done anything for us, when they have. They showed up at more than one council meeting, invited us to come to their open house last October, they showed us plans for a third ambulance that will not cost the tax payers anything, and a great deal more. What did we as the BDO do?? NOTHING!! I also recall you saying the very same thing about the police, but according to several former cops, there was a massive conversion of Bensalem cops in 1998 registering to democrat, because of the garbage going on, and what did the BDO do for them in this instance?? NOTHING!! According to these cops they saw nothing being done, so they out of fear all re-registered to republican.

2. You also mentioned something about the "secret deal" made concerning Steve Moran's severance package. You state that you were not able to find anything on it, and didn't get anywhere with it, but guess what?? THE LORD ALLOWED ME TO GET ANSWERS!! I have also filed other Right To Know requests for things such as: the "18 Safety Issues" used to shut Union Fire Co. Down, the Township's Emergency Management, and Fire Assessment plan, plus the findings of the "Oversight Committee", and their answer to their disregard of the Garcia Act in forming the paid fire company. As usual, Haman and his bunch are stone walling me on this, but Union has been cooperating, and the answers I have will make your head spin.
3. You also stated that we were made fools of at the council meetings, but I would disagree. By now, you should know that in all actuality, Joey D, council, and Harran were the ones being made fools. We caught them lying at every turn, and we stepped on their toes BIG TIME. Union Fire Co. went to several council meetings with Harris and myself, did the same thing, and they stepped on toes so bad, Harran went to the FBI, and Fox 29 to make them look bad (without success), had Dave Jerri's son arrested on bogus burglary charges, (which were reduced to misdemeanors, and given A.R.D.), and has now filed false charges of workman's comp fraud, which will backfire on Haman.The GOP were made so uncomfortable, someone in our very own organization who dared me to start attending these meetings and ask questions, attempted to prevent us from continuing, and when I did, I was falsely accused of things I have never done before.
 4. Just so all of you know,
I made several phone calls during the last election, and the one common complaint I got in my town, was the lack of strong democratic candidates to run against the incumbents, and that we were re-cycling names in this instance.  My advice to those who have said this, is Why don't YOU get involved?? Check out when your Democratic Organization meets in your town. In Bensalem in particular, come out to the Bensalem Democratic Organization meetings. They are every 3rd Monday at the Bensalem Public Library at 7PM. IF you are so desperate for change and new blood to run against the current GOP puppets, then why don't you Run for office??
I believe that we need to show some patience with the results, if they don't come right away, and we also need to really reach out the the fire companies, especially Union. There are other fire companies and fire fighters who are taking a stand, but they need our continued support, otherwise we will be going around in circles. We had the means to get the 3 council seats, but because we did nothing (Especially after going to the council meetings), and allowed them to screw with us internally, we lost. We have another opportunity to do so, and this time, we need to stand strong, state our ideas for this county/town, show ACTUAL plans to improve this county/town for the better, and how we will make Bucks as well as Bensalem the place to live it ought to be. We can't afford to let internal strife, and outside intimidation cause us to lose. We just can't let this happen again.
START FIGHTING!!!
