Fossil, I just read a blog between you and Leroy where you talk about freedom of speech in defense of John Putnam, yet, in the next breath you tell Issler to stay off the blogs and out of the election?? Doesn't he have the same rights you claim should be given to Putnam? Or do these rights only apply to those you agree with? Like you, I think your involvement and that of Putnam only hurts your candidate. It's difficult for me to vote for Chuck whith you and Putnam making crazy blogs on his behalf.
Fossil, Putnam, et al, This talk of Kiester and the Sunshine violations and guilty charge are bringing back many ill feelings. Kiester deleted the emails intentionally and you apparent Kiester supporters keep talking about it as if he did nothing wrong. Since he was found guilty and since he has found out who the real majority on the island is I think he has become a fine councilor. I am willing to forgive and forget but you idiots keep bringing it back up! Do you want him to get re-elected or not? SHUT UP already about his shortcomings and mistakes and focus on what he has done right. It's almost as if you don't want him to get elected or you're too stupid to know when to keep your pens in your desk and your hands off of the keyboard!
Please tell me "WHY" you think your opinion is so important!
Please tell me what you have ever done for Marco Island!
Please tell me why you just don't leave Marco Island for good if you hate it so much!
Never in my 30 years on this island have I ever seen such arrogant and irritating individuals. Putnam and Uhler write LTE every week...why does the Eagle countinue to publish such nonsense? They have vacation homes on Marco and make more noise than all of the permanent residents put together.
I heard Obama saw a college footballl game and now he's going to receive the Hiesman Trophy.
Fossil, people like you who voted for and countinue to support this socialist president will live to regret it. Obama is on the fast track to ruining our country. Otherwise intellegent individuals were duped into voting for him. What ever happened to the Constitution of the United States of America? Obama has no respect for this document at all, nor does he have any respect for the citizens of the United States.
Mr. Issler, based on some of your previous blogs I believe we have been on the same side of the fence during the STRP fiasco as well as the recent election but claiming to speak for the majority is extraordinarily arrogant. I proudly supported our city council during all of the despicable events that took place, i.e. CARES, baseless law suits, failed recall attempts, POP, and too many other desperate attempts by an angry and self-centered vocal minority. But now I must disagree with you! Perhaps you are independently wealthy and a few extra dollars means nothing to you. Are you living in a dream world? I cannot fathom that you would believe that our economy is getting better. People are under financial pressure and our city council has correctly made attempts to lower the millage rate and cut from the budget, city council has my full support in these efforts. I am not a member of MITA and never have been but MITA is dead on when it comes to this city’s budget; our elected officials must look to cut wherever possible.
I don't know where your get your information from Delta but my Collier County Taxes have increased by over $900 and my Marco Taxes have reduced by about $14.00 so what is all the complainng about? I keep feeling like I'm missing something here.
I'm begining to feel like this blog is a just a vehicle to bad mouth our council and a platform for misinformation.
I was at the meeting also. You say Popoff "tricked" the voters Delta while I more accurately say "persuaded" council to go with the lower rate. Ask yourself what the millage rate would be if Rob hadn't fought for the lower rate. If it wasn't for his persistence and votes our millage rate would be 1.75 instead of 1.65. It's all perception, it's clear you don't like him, that's ok but at least give credit where it's due. As far as "canning the clunkers" as you say, you only need to can two because I have heard that Rob will not run again (don't blame him) to bad because in my opinion he's doing a great job and would get reelected easily.
Pitiful how you try to redirect the focus from you back to Foster. Won't work John, you are a liar and you were caught. So, how about a reply - you clearly stated that you did not send a threatening letter or an apology to Terri D. and then you supplied the letter and your apology. What’s your response John? You hold everyone to a higher standard but yourself and those that you agree with politically. Time to get back on your meds!
