Pickerington Area Taxpayers Alliance

Bruce,

Bury the hatch! Let go of your three-year old personal vendetta about how I tried to boycott my own bank. While your talk about Chicago political bosses, poison letters, Statute of Intimidation, and substantial prison terms may excite some here on this website, that?’s not why people elected to our school board. Kicking out a citizen from a levy committee or athletic boosters may give you an ego boost; it does nothing to solve the massive problems facing our community.

Bruce, be FOR something instead of always anti-this or anti-that. Campaign to elect responsible elected officials instead of recalling those voters already elected.

Focus on the solving the problems of our schools and community. Focus on the future. Discuss issues not people ?… real issues such as saving $500,000 on busing as recommended by the Auditor last October by eliminating 12 buses. Take action as I suggested in the Columbus Dispatch on December 1, 2002 (Parade Marching into City of Great Debate) on impact fees within the entire school district of $5000 per home ?– not just within the City limits. Lobby our State Representative as I suggested to TAX THE BUILDERS as they are considering massive tax reform to our tax system. Bruce, it would have been far more helpful to our community and to the folks here on this website if you discussed how to tax the builders with our State Representative on April 6th meeting of the CommUNITY 1st rather than to discuss me and your personal opinions about Sunshine Laws.

Let?’s discuss effective methods to include more public involvement in the board decision-making process regarding the curriculum, finances and facilities.

Let?’s discuss how to build a broad-base coalition of people within the community with diverse ideas and opinions to begin to work as a team to address our community problems. Teamwork works.

Time to take action, Bruce! Bury the hatch!

'Fork' calling the pot black!

Yes my quote is intentionally wrong. I was my version of burying the 'hatch'. I'll have to submit that one to Scott Adams and see if he'll include it in his 'Dilbert Newletter'.

Mark, look in the mirror prior to preaching to others about burying the 'hatch'. You initiate numerous personal attacks and unfounded accusations against people on this website and when they take the time to defend themselves to clear their names and state the truth you tell them to be FOR something?

What positive impact did your personal attacks accomplish? What did it do to further the cause of our kids in the community? What did it do to bring our community together?

I'll answer that question for you - NOTHING. It was a complete waste of time and merely showed your thinly veiled political agenda.

Focus on Issues Not People!!


Brian,

As a frequent person posting to this website, it would be helpful to talk about solutions to issues.

What is your position on saving $500,000 for our schools on busing as recommended by the Auditor last October by eliminating 12 buses?

What is your position on my suggestion of on impact fees within the entire school district of $5000 per home ?– not just within the City limits on the front page of a Sunday Dispatch section in December?

What is your position on asking Ohio State Representative Tim Schaffer to introduce legislation that would give all Ohio school boards the authority to levy impact fees on home builders constructing new residential homes within a school district?

Why aren't homebuilders taxed by school districts in a similar method to retail operations, manufacturers, restaurants, printers, shopping outlets, theatres, and other area businesses? Do you think our tax structure is fair?

To be honest, I think most on this website would prefer to discuss rather issues rather than petty personal junk. Don't you, agree?

Move along

He might agree but I don?’t. You are just moving on to your next scene in this sitcom. Did Daryl and Lou tell you it was time to lull the audience into debating issues again rather than continue your pointed personal attacks? You roll along repeating yourself over and over again on the issues you and your puppeteers deem relevant and as soon as you engage a couple of people in spirited discourse on those issues you launch into another of your character assassinations you have become famous for. Do you think you are famous for anything more than being a hired assassin for whomever strokes you just right? Do you think you are famous for more than whining?

You know what? You got nailed again on the supporting documentation to the libel, slander and despicable acts you committed against people who are bigger than you. They were big enough to not pursue it legally and now you want to just leave that in the past and move on to debates over what your puppeteers deem relevant.

You?’re old news and getting quite lackluster in your postings.

Move along little man.
