Town of Braintree

not all agree with DMM lynch mob


not everyone agrees with your
Sacco and Vanzetti smear campaign.
so what did you or anyone expect when you began the thread? trying to manipulate public perception.
Just like a politician.
you have missed your calling.we need
devious clever duplicitous characters
like you running for elected office.
just remember to have your muck raker
garbologist and character assassin on speed dial








hello 'townie home owner'

Sept 25, 2004
this is figment using a hybrid of the anonymous genre. by your standards i am one of those guilty of employee bashing; but, i hold you have misinterpreted the intent of my messages, and maybe those of others. Any issue concerning our town will affect our employees simply because they comprise the nucleus of our governmental body. from our selectmen to our seasonal/part-time staff, they are our government. when i espouse that certain depts. should be merged, that the fire dept. should be restructured, we need one mayor or manager to lead, that step raises should be considered part of an employee's yearly increase, i would hope that you, and others, would rise above the short sighted mentality that makes you personalize those statements. i would hope that you would receive them in the manner they were intended, that for our town to survive and flourish, it must reevaluate and restructure. The employees are working within a set structure, they are not the impetus, albeit they would be the recipients. the actual catalyst for change is an outmoded structure. corporations are remolding and reformulating themselves constantly to survive in a changing world, those that do not meet change with change meet their demise. our town is no different. we cannot continue to govern with past practices/structure and expect that we will achieve and survive. we must reinvent, restructure, because the times demand that we do. my swan song used to be that we needed to unite for the common good, but since that 'aint' about to happen, my new war cry is that we need one leader to unite our myriad of splintered, factioned, and disjointed parts.
anyway, at least i get enjoyment from some of your posts. they run the gambit from the brilliant, but bizarre, mind of Hannibal lectern to the whimsical, poetic aplomb of Dr. souse(Sp.?). but no matter how innovative and entertaining you are, no matter what hat you choose to wear, your posts will fail the litmus test if you too refuse to remain constructive. we all can be benefactors of another mind-bent if we open ourselves to hear the logic and refuse to be swayed by emotion.
now i expect you to have fun with this 'townie', just keep in mind that we may be long, lost, friends.

this is my take on braintree town politics.Real literate residents understand. mental midgets with minor
agendas couldn't and wouldn't be bothered.do you blame them.they are content with the incumbent,the biigest
richest mental fraud of them all.here's a random thought for ''Morons for Bushie'' folk,if the neighbors dog was threatening to overturn your walmart trash can,would you kill it from three
streets away,all of its breed; firebomb the kennel it came from kill its parents and anyone near them,then proclaim V FOR VICTORY?????









let's get to it then shall we.will
he/she/it/ANON come clean as a town resident or just another 10 mile to Boston Commuter fraud that describe so many of the new town residents?driving up the tax rates building estate size dwellings then complaining the town is not adequate for their
needs.'they're using too much town money on the civil servants;lay them off.when i was i kid there were 50 kids in each class'.not in braintree.
there was plenty of services provided then when the resident tax base was in line with available accountable funding.then came proposition 2 1/2 with the promise of dropping tax rates at the expense of funding the existing infrastructure that continues to escalate year after year. before the madness began there was not a year in / year out struggle to strategize
robbing peter at the expense of Paul to provide services to residents such as paving the roads,upkeep in every town building and school and allowing employees a cost of living raise.when
it comes to town issues I'm conservative. to the bone.the taxpayers
Here refuse to override.so be it .no pet project should get preference over another,OK?ALL TOWN EMPLOYEES are not entitled to a raise this includes both union and non union,manager and worker
employees use your own vehicles.the roads never get fixed.schools never get
upgrades.no police cars, fire engines,
school books,materials,after school activities.bring back the town dump.get rid of your own trash.sweep and snow plow your own sidewalks and streets.sell BELD.go back to roof antennas for reception get rid of 24/7
police and fire coverage. make these employees pay for their own uniforms/guns/whatever.junk the Quinn bill.no cops needed for 4 hour details
make the people who own and operate
braintree place and south shore plaza
responsible for their own security and traffic issues.open the gate at Flaherty.either allow the trucks to ruin the roads or tell the business
that employs them to pay upkeep or get
out of town.tell the town people up front who will pay the freight of upkeep on the Petersen pool before its
location is agreed upon and then built or give the money back. you see? that little dissertation might be considered a rant but the devil really is in the details.you can't turn the clock back to suit your individual needs/desires.the town collectively
bought the the lie 24 years ago and we
are too stubborn to undue the damage.the town folk that have had the pleasure of living here longer than 25 years know the deal if they've been paying attention.others coming in later should be able to figure it out
on their own.the town does not want to grow any larger.if people want to move here to commute to Boston,fine.if they don't care for the politics or the aging,antiquated concepts that are perpetuated by residents and town government in denial,maybe Braintree
isn't for them. i would then suggest either Holbrook,Weymouth,Randolph or Quincy as an alternative.the people that live here are well versed on all that ails them.they are just either unable or too stubborn to effect a change. who buys a house,pays the mortgage and utilities but then refuses to acknowledge that upkeep will be required at some point and then refuses
to budget for it? the Town of Braintree
does.that's it in a nut shell.

I've read and listened and watched.the argument of war with Iraq remains weak,with or without justification.since when does the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA have the right to wage war on inferior nations without impunity? because our sensibilities are the only ones that matter?we are without question the biggest and strongest power on the planet.our needs are not more important than the rest of the worlds'.
our economy, religious faith,and Constitutional rights do not supersede any other nation's right to sovereignty. who told anyone here that their most intimate desire was to be more like America?Thousands of years have these tribes fought over what is uniquely a regional problem.it is no matter whether Bush or Kerry is president,many will continue to die for an idea discussed in board rooms by those who care only for monetary gain. no ideology or democracy is at stake here.just death and destruction,instability and and oil prices.there are three tribes in this region wrestling for control now that the government is destabilized and if our need to control their economy wasn't the real reason we came in the first place,we better not stop here.there's Iran,Korea and the biggest nut to crack of them all,China.it's a big job being the world's policeman,making every region safe so our idea of society will continue to prosper at their expense.if you don't understand it and you can't bully them,take'em out,set up a puppet regime and the world will be red white and blue all over.being facetious is the easy part. allowing the world's nations to take their natural course is another. if this president was as sharp as the proverbial tack and he had the necessary intelligence to make an informed and prudent decision this wouldn't be an election year issue.he would have had a plan,executed it and
and be on to bigger and better things by now instead of leading enough people to believe he made a decision at that time because it seemed like the right thing to do,even as it began to go awry.now he has NO CLUE or PLAN
in place to remove our military from harms way as America has emerged as the world's biggest oppressor( without a clue,no less)instead of the big brother looking out for the oppressed.
Bush should be made to explain why the pursuit of BIN LADEN is no longer his biggest priority instead of pursuing the stability of world oil prices.
don't worry Anonymous, the sun will come out tommorrow,bet your bottom Bush
dollar........
