You need to check his votes John; your wrong.

Written on Marco electric users won’t get their $1 million refund :

If Kiester or Popoff voted against it they would not be able to bring it up at a future meeting. My guess is that they voted for it so they can bring it back up. I heard both councilors say that the money should be returned to the people by putting the money in a utilities fund to lower our water rates. I guess we'll see what happens.

I was at the meeting when council suggested returning the money and the LCEC rep said they had no way to return the money. I like councilors Kiester and Popoffs idea of putting the money into the water company and lowering rates accordingly but it got no support form council.

Written on Mario Sanchez seeks parent seat on Marco Island Charter Middle School board :

Sometimes I just can't disagree with your logic John. Maybe we should get rid of public libraries, museums, and schools; they're all publicly funded. I mean, I get your point. I hate socialism and the Pelosi's, Frank's and Obama's of the world as much as any other good conservative but the kids enjoy these parks. They are not empty, all summer long kids are there. Maybe when you drive by they're in school.

What's the point John, do we not spend any money on parks and recreation for our kids? What is your point period John; you seem to be against everything!

Written on Mario Sanchez seeks parent seat on Marco Island Charter Middle School board :

Like you John, Mario likes to stir the pot. If I could vote in this school election I wouldn't vote for Sanchez.

Once again you seem to be taking liberties with the truth as Mario has only one child, a wonderful daughter. This is not personal I just question his agenda like clearlystated has.

I am glad you endorsed Sanchez as your endorsement amoung families on this island is the kiss of death. You complain about our parks and grossly overestimate the costs. KidsCove is a shining example of what a wondeful community we have here and how the residents can join together to build a great playground. Incidentally John, KidCoive cost the city $100k NOT $1m as you state (it was bulit by the real residents of Marco Island). Always the exaggerator and aggitator John. At least you consistant.

Written on Letter to the Editor: Please tell me why:

Why John, just when I thought we were getting along so well. You really don't know much about Marco and it's people, our sense of community. Flowerpower, I helped build KidsCove also and it was a wonderful community event that I will never forget.

Written on Letter to the Editor: Political failures nothing new on Marco:

JohninMarco, they don't destroy Marco they just continue to destroy what's left of their credibility. The ironic thing is that the guys who complain the most aren't really Marco residents, they are unhappy seasonal owners who just want to stir the pot. I agree Sailor, Uhler's letter to Putnam above is ridiculous.

Written on Letter to the Editor: The un-Nobel prize:

Dead on John...Once again I find myself agreeing with Mr. Putnam! Obama has done NOTHING to deserve this award.

Written on Lawsuit over the release of public records unearthing asbestos concerns in Marco:

John, our local politics may differ but I couldn't agree with you more about Obama and his Marxism agenda. Well said!!
