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 [...] In a recent post, the New Britain Democrat Town Committee stated that “Slogans May Say All You Need To Know About the Mayor’s Race.” It is understandable they wouldn’t want voters to look any further than slogans in this election after the scandal that has rocked Tim O’Brien’s campaign that ultimately cost the candidates their [...] In his most recent mailing, Tim O’Brien has again shown he has little to offer the town besides rhetoric. To quote: “It starts with bringing down property taxes for everyone, improving our schools, and using new ideas to create good jobs and grow the grand list to get our city’s economic engine running again.” Perhaps Mr. O’Brien [...] |
