Wow...the deomcrats are talking out of both sides of their mouths...thankfully we have it on U-Tube! Makes for good campaign stuff.

Did you see the Union guy in the background...do ya think this is motivated by the unions?

A question...they all claim health care cost too much...are they willing to advocate that the unions membership should pay more so the tax payers don't have to pay as much as the recent police contract indidcates? or do they want free medical services? I think they call that socialized medicine.

This is the same guy who gave the unions 100% health care with no cost sharing when he was mayor.

I would really like to know why socialized medicine is somehow worse than socialized education, socialized police and fire, and a socialized library? Just curious.

I don't recall anyone saying those socialized entities were any good .

The union guy behind Frank is Mike petosa, one of the worst types of union thugs in Bristol. He is in Artie's pocket and did sling a lot of dirt last summer mostly to get Artie elected but also to protect his dear little sister francie who is universally regarded as one of the most incompetant library directors in the history of the city, and who Ms. Zoppo did not get along with.

Mike Petosa is a decent guy. He's not a thug. He is however, a partisan union activist.

This is just the Democrats paying homage to the unions that bank roll their campaigns year after year.

If you can't figure out why a government take-over of the healthcare system would be even more costly than the other public services you mentioned, you need to go to college a lot longer (preferably to a private college where you pay for it yourself).

WOW! Is that the kind of company that Frank hangs around with?

Or is he one of them?

Fighting for healthcare for everyone but making sure the taxpayers pay for the majority of the healthare costs for City employees.

Make up your minds Nicastro and Ward!

Frank is impressive. He can't help who's lurking in the background.

One is known by the company they keep.

Dont talk about Nicastro! Didnt you know he was Mayor for 10 years! If you don't walk by him, he will stop you and let you know what a great job he did as mayor!

Anonymous said...

He won't tell you 10 years, he will tell you exactly how many days.

And you don't even have to ask him.

Thats how committed and generous he is.

A paragon among elected officials.

Where is Jerome in all of this?

Jerome's wife is a teacher and an AFT member.

Jerome thinks that if he runs for office enough (albeit always unsuccessful), he'll be in line for the Registrar job someday. The same can be said for Schaffrick and a few others.
