Written on Story/BLOG: Special-called Marco budget meeting yields few changes :

It is symptomatic that this group of fools would have a meeting to change something they can't change. Why didn't Thompson tell Popoff that they couldn't accomplish anything with the meeting and save Popoff the embarrassment and us a waste of time?

Written on Will art proposal have businesses seeing red?:

This is a really bad idea. We don't need any more petty committee's dictating what is "art". Marco Man is a prime example. Many of us think he is a joke and a disgrace.

Written on Letter to the Editor: Shame on all of you:

Monte, instead of spending your time insulting our citizens, you and Areceri should hold a benefit for poor Wayne Waldack so he can make the payments on the $325,000 loan he took out on the house his mother gave him.

It is really embarrassing having a councilman that is being foreclosed on and is probably not even a taxpayer. Hopefully, you and Arceri can find more qualified shills to run in the next election.

Written on Letter to the Editor: Asked, answered:

Wayne can't even make payments on the $325,000 loan on the house his mother gave him. It is in the process of foreclosure. Once he loses it, he won't even have to pay property taxes. No wonder he is so free with our money.

Walduck is just a shill for Arceri who writes everything he says. We have a new village idiot.

Written on Economy stomps Marco Wine Seller out of business :

The small businesses need to wake up and recognize that the Chamber, Monte Lazarus and Arceri are driving the year around residents off Marco. Marco will become a 4 months a year economy and small business cannot make it on that. Small business need to sponsor leadership that encourages the council stop spending money, stop raising taxes, and stop raising rates in order to make it economically viable for people to live here.

Written on Letter to the Editor: Remembering the past:

History continues to prove that Ed Foster was right in his concerns over the management of our island and the future they were imposing on us. The island is far better off for his involvement which has served to expose some of the abuses and dishonesty emanating from the Arceri camp.

Written on Letter to the Editor: Campaign continues:

Well said Sayre. Arceri is the cancer that is ruining Marco Island. It is painful to think of how much better off we would be without his programs and those programs he directs through his shills on the council, G, T, and W.

Written on Water/sewer rate increases have Marco looking to speed up sewer project:

Our council just finished reading Joe Biden's new book "We have to keep spending more money so we won't go bankrupt." and obviously believed it. Where is the sanity?

Written on Tax hike will even things out, Marco leaders say:

Thompson calls a 26% tax rate increase along with the 27% utility rate increase needed to fund 19 million in capital projects for 2010 as "Holding the Line" and poor Kelly is dumb enough to swallow the BS without even questioning it. Ed Bania never would have swallowed this tripe.
