Why do you think the cops did not block either exit to the development when they entered the scene just a minute behind the fleeing criminal. If they had a description of the vehicle wouldnt that have been a wise decision. Now others have Fallin victim to these pathetic pieces of shit. Karma will get you people and the cops should have known their own territory and made a better choice.

You state that you are not a career politician. Ok. Are you implying that the current councilRead More members are? From what I can see, the only (failed) career politician of the bunch is Jack Hanson. Would you please tell me like it is?

Old Jack Hansen did get elected twice? Am I correct? Mary Fuller is what? The 2nd coming of theRead More flying nun. give me a break. I guess just keep bad mouthing Jack Hansen will give Mary Fuller a win, a great tactic. Does confuse me, but what do I know.

You forgot to mention his 3 losses as well. One of which came not too long after he landed onRead More Borough Council and then decided, before the ink was even dry on the local election results, the heck with Lansdale, I want Harrisburg! Shows you EXACTLY the kind of person Jack Hansen is. A political opportunist, and nothing more. He's such an opportunist that he even created a way to funnel money to his candidates, outside of the Lansdale Democratic Party, so that if they "accidentally" endorsed someone he didn't like (aka Mary Fuller), they wouldn't have to spend any money on her! Real stand up guy that Jack. He doesn't even belong in the same sentence with Mary Fuller. Don't worry Bob -- Jack's day will come. MCDC looks pretty foolish right now, giving money to a non-partisan PAC with his stepson's name on it, in support of candidates who aren't even endorsed by the local Party.

Young man, you are doing a HUGE dis-service to your father with such comments. The fact remains,Read More your father chose to be a public figure. These kinds of things come out in an election. It's all public information. If it hurts to read these comments, then dont' read them. Dirty laundry is always aired in politics. I'm sure in you're upbringing, your parents must have told you there are going to be times in life when you will hear things that you will not like and you need to just move on from them. Looks like this is one of those time. The fact is, your dad messed up and people have the right to ask about it if he is asking them to vote for him. It is their RIGHT!!!
Maria May 21, 2013 at 04:59 pm
Yes, you can. As can everyone else here. But just remember, you're making your dad look like anRead More idiot!
