The follow letter was written and submitted by Jason Stark. State Representative Tim O’Brien voted along side 105 other Democrats to increase the public campaign funding for Gubernatorial Candidate Dan Malloy by $3 million. This rises the cost to taxpayers from $3 million to $6 million dollars this year to pay for his political campaign. The [...] This past Tuesday we heard from several of the candidates who are running for office this Fall. Henry Zembko, James Griffin, and Cris Carillo all spoke about their campaigns against Donald DeFronzo, Peter Tercyak, and Tim O’Brien respectively. Each spoke passionately about their desires to bring common sense back to government. They spoke of the [...] The above ad was placed by Frank Marrocco in today’s Herald. It is important that people see this. It brings to light the deceptive practices of Tim O’Brien that have been mentioned here before. That is the problem with O’Brien’s campaign. When the facts come to light his arguments evaporate. Let us imagine for a minute that Tim O’Brien’s campaign was not surrounded with questionable ethics. Let us imagine that he had not received tens of thousands of dollars from Political Action Committees (PACs), lobbyists, and special interest groups. Let us even imagine a world where Tim O’Brien’s tax plan was a thing of facts [...] The League of Women Voters is hosting a debate on Tuesday evening (Oct. 20) in Town Hall. This is an excellent chance to see the contrast between Mayor Stewart and his opponent Tim O’Brien. Come and count how many detailed answers Tim O’Brien gives, chances are you won’t need more than one hand. Turn out [...] O’Brien has sent out another mass mailing to confuse and frighten voters. Again he repeatedly attempts to mislead without being an out and out liar. However he wants to slice it, this latest mailing contains several deceptive statements. Deception One: “Under Tim Stewart, 90% of property tax payers in New Britain are paying more.” It is unclear [...] According to Tim O’Brien’s own blog he has released his plan for tax relief. This release was made through a “New Britain Democratic E-Letter.” Perhaps Mr. O’Brien was afraid that if he released this plan publicly, too many voters would realize that his “plan” is little more than empty promises. The debate on Wednesday night (Oct. 7) was wonderfully stimulating. While Mayor Stewart was big on details and exact plans, Candidate O’Brien was big on promises and unsupported claims. Tim O’Brien again defended “senior tax relief” (videos 7 and 9) without being able to produce any evidence that such a program is needed. Paul Carver, [...] On Wednesday October 7, 2009 at 7:00pm, there will be a debate held in either the lecture hall or the auditorium at New Britain High School (which are right across from each other.) It is being sponsored by the Paraprofessionals of New Britain and is open to the public. If you want to see first [...] One of the most powerful movements of the 21st century is the ability the internet has given to every person to express themselves through art, music, and the spoken word. The ability every citizen has now to create a blog or website and give themselves a voice is both impressive and at times frightening. The [...] |
