Not really. In an article on Patch, Mayor Drew discusses his thoughts on former Republican gubenatorial candidate Tom Foley calling him a "hypocrit." With the promises to lower Middletown's taxes, claiming to have closed a deficit, when in fact his administration created a budget short-fall, bragging about ending grievances when more lawsuits have been created since, and numerous other lies, is our mayor himself not by his own definition a hypocrit? Drew raised $90K+ for his unopposed reelection campaign; where is that money now & is it not likely to end up in Malloy's warchest? Instead of playing politics as a cheerleader for Gov. Dannel Malloy in his 2014 reelection campaign for governor and the Bloomberg's Mayors Against Illegal Guns campaign, please mayor, get back to issues in Middletown that need your attention.
Honorable and Leader are not words that come to mind when describing double d.
ReplyDeleteBig dannel's lap dog maybe.
Dan Drew's commentary was a reflection of him - disrespectful and diversion.
ReplyDeleteInstead of addressing the issues Foley raises, he goes on a personal attack. He'd get more mileage if he showed some thoughtful dissent. But then again, he treats the Middletown taxpayers with the same disrespect. He seems to think he doesn't have to address the promises he made but didn't keep. Almost like if he doesn't address them ,they never existed. Kind of like when he told us all during last year's blizzard 100% of the streets were clear when it was obvious that they weren't. He never answered us on that either. He thinks the electorate is dumb and he's the sharpest tool in the shed.
Sadly, he makes the previous mayor look like a Rhodes Scholar, and that's a pretty difficult feat.
