Community Day Gossip: Deadbeats and WBCB

My, how nice it was to get out and spend some time with the neighbors at Williamson Park for Community Day. I hope you took advantage of the cool breezes.

The hot air was something else.

The big talk was about the deadbeat government we have here in Morrisville. It was applied equally to the borough council deadbeats and the school board deadbeats, as well as the borough officials who were accomplices as deadbeat enablers. More than one person called it that, so I cannot claim credit. I like the term anyway.

DEADBEAT: A non-payer who doesn't bother to say why.
DEADBEAT: 1. a lazy person or 2. a person who defaults on his debts
DEADBEAT: someone who fails to meet a financial obligation

Yep. Think that covers it. If you're happy with the way Morrisville has prospered in the last ten years, then "STAY ON TRACK" and vote the same old names back into the same old offices.

If you're not happy, then it's time for a change. Please. Morrisville's diaper is about as filled as it can get.

It's a great game. When they raise taxes, we have to pay them. They just ask to put it on their account.

The second item of gossip was the Emperor's scheduled softball interview with WBCB's Pat Wandling on "Speak Your Piece" Monday at noon.

I expect this to show how heroic our anger challenged Emperor is. Go ahead and try to call 215-949-3232 or toll free at 1-(888)WBCB-1490. Ask the Emperor the tough questions.

Pat Wandling herself is against secret meetings. Perhaps she'll ask the Emperor about the Worob coffee klatsch.

She's also a proven advocate for transparency in government. Perhaps she'll ask hard hitting questions about the secretly commissioned $1500.00 Hellmann Report or ask why they boasted of a six-point plan that doesn't exist. The state of Pennsylvania confirmed that.

Anyone want to predict the questions that really will be asked?

Morrisville Pride or Deadbeats? It's your choice for our future.

Perhaps the shortest answer on who to vote for Tuesday: The Morrisville Pride candidates, or the stay on track and do whatever Bill wants candidates. This is a comment from the BCCT story yesterday about our Morrisville candidates unable to pay their municipal bills for multiple years.

This is so typical politician and typical Morrisville. Deadbeats is what we used to call people like this and maybe we should still. I have NO sympathy for people who can't pay their water or sewer bills.

My major concern is their ability to govern. When a bill comes up before them to pay for something useful like municipal repairs or new equipment for the fire department, how are they going to think beyond their own wallets or purses? They can't. They'll hold the line and never spend a dime for the citizens in spite of how useful or intelligent the bill.

Do not elect anyone who can't pay their bills.

Morrisville has a choice - deadbeats or honest citizens. It's that clear cut.
