It is no secret that Bridgeport was ill prepared for the 2010 vote. What happened was a surprise to many including Mayor Finch who said "Bridgeport can't be remembered as the dimpled chad of elections."
An independent reporting agency asked the Democratic voter registrar what happened and they declined to comment, however the Republican registrar of voters in Bridgeport exposes criminal, civil and blatantly obvious election fraud. All of Acorns activities, a Government sponsored agency, were reported to the Democratic Secretary of State Suzan Byczewitz to investigate.
Some are clamoring that election fraud in Bridgeport was so pervasive, and yet advantageous to the Democratic party in Connecticut that the FBI should open a RICO investigation on ACORN for criminal activity.
What makes Bridgeport's voting so unusual is that the entire country favored Republicans this year, except Connecticut whose entire state and federal elections were thrown in favor of the Democrats. Watch the below video and perhaps we can gain perspective on why protests are the new focal point in Bridgeport.

Why Im Running For Senate

I am not a professional politician. I am running as a matter of conscience, and not ambition. Just like when you see someone drowning, and you are a certified water safety instructor, you offer to help, and just like if you are a doctor and you see someone bleeding, you offer to help. I see the American economy crumbling, and I know my specialized knowledge and experience make me uniquely qualified to fix it, and so I’m offering to help.
I support the traditional ideal that the American economy works best when people working for a living take home enough pay to buy the goods and services they produce, resulting in businesses competing for those consumer dollars and increased sales funding the millions of jobs we desperately need.
The Mosler Economic Restoration Plan has three core proposals:
[1] Declare an Immediate ‘Payroll Tax Holiday’ — The U.S. Treasury will no longer deduct FICA, Medicare and other Federal payroll tax deductions from your paychecks, resulting in an immediate increase in take-home pay of roughly $650 per month for a couple with a combined income of $100,000 per year. That’s big money, and the extra cash will help you pay your mortgage and car payments, which helps the banks the right way, from the bottom up, and not through the top down bailouts of the recent past.
[2] Give U.S. States Revenue Share Money Based on Population — Provide each State government with an immediate, unrestricted $500 per capita of revenue to spend where they decide they need it most. This will amount to approximately $1.75 billion for Connecticut to help fill the holes created by the recession.
[3] Fund an $8/Hour National Service Job for Anyone Willing and Able to Work — This will provide transitional employment for the unemployed, preparing them to find new private-sector employment as businesses look to add millions of new jobs to meet the demand coming from a rise in spending due to the increased take-home pay from my first proposal.
Additionally, I have taken the pledge never to cut Social Security benefits or eligibility requirements, and fully support measures to ensure our seniors are supported in a manner that makes us proud to be Americans.
The Truth about Federal Spending
I know what you are thinking: ‘What about the lost Federal revenues?’ ‘Won’t that mean cutbacks somewhere else?’ ‘Won’t we have to borrow more from China for our children to pay back?’
This is why I’m running. I have the right answer to these questions, which is what sets me apart from the field and uniquely qualifies me to support my proposals.
I know how the payment system works. I grew up on the money desk at Banker’s Trust on Wall Street in the 1970′s, ran my own investment funds and securities dealer for 15 years, currently own a small Florida bank, and visit the Fed (Federal Reserve Bank) regularly to discuss monetary policy and operations.
I know for a fact, as do all Federal reserve ‘insiders’ as well as economists who understand monetary operations, that the role of taxes for the Federal government, unlike State and local government, is to regulate the economy—not to raise revenue.
It is an indisputable fact that when the Federal government taxes, it doesn’t actually get anything; it just changes numbers down in our bank accounts. And when the Federal government spends, it just changes numbers up in our banks accounts and doesn’t ‘use up’ anything. This may sound like a wild notion, but it was confirmed by Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke under oath as recently as May of 2009 in a public interview. When the Chairman was asked where the dollars came from that he was spending, he replied that the Federal Reserve just uses its computer to mark up numbers in bank accounts.
As a result, there is no such thing as the Federal government running out of money, and Social Security and Medicare cannot go bankrupt. Because the Federal government always makes any payment when it’s due by simply marking up numbers in our bank accounts, just like Chairman Bernanke described.
Because of this widespread misconception, the politicians in D.C. cannot comprehend the true meaning of taxes. That is why they take too much out of the paychecks of working Americans. That is why so many people are finding it more and more difficult to pay their mortgage or simply buy groceries. Our leaders don’t understand that Federal taxes are like the thermostat. When the economy is too hot, inflation too high, unemployment too low (something I’ve never seen in my 40 years of watching the U.S. economy) a tax increase might be a consideration. Not to raise revenue, but to cool down an economy running ‘too good.’ And when the economy is ice cold, like it is now, a major tax cut is in order to bring it back up to operating temperature. Like the ones I’ve proposed.
More of the Same from the Other Candidates
Like D.C. politicians, the other candidates vying for Connecticut’s Senate seat fail to understand the difference between the function of Federal taxation and State and local government taxation.
This explains why, in their televised debate, both candidates proposed tax increases which would only make matters worse. In fairness, they do offer some minor tax relief, but only for businesses. This is a traditional Republican, trickle down approach, where business tax cuts increase business profits so the owners hire more domestic help at low wages because of the high unemployment. And this is the same trickle down approach we’ve watched for the last two years with trillions of dollars allocated to fund banks, insurance companies and car companies followed by millions of lost jobs.
My plan is both very different and highly effective. By increasing the take-home pay of you and your neighbors, you have the ability to make your payments and do your shopping with the money you rightly earned by working at your job. That’s called fixing the economy the Democratic way, from the bottom up, so you get to support the economy with your spending.

As Nation Sinks Into Despair Republicrats Offer Same Rhetoric
Every election we hear the same old B.S. from all the two party candidates we elect, re-elect and vote out. "ohhh, I mean business," "I will reduce the size of Government," "I will protect Jobs," "I will protect the environment," "I will, I will, I will... vote for me! Me! MEEEEE! Ohh Awww pleeease! I will I will I swear!"Sick of it yet? Well if you have been lobotomized, unable to read a newspaper or kept to your promise of never discussing "religion or politics" then quit reading this blog and go back to your Ipod. (You will not get it.) But.. If you are smart, fed up, and sick and tired of all the cons, the lies, the deception, dishonesty and larceny than read on because I am going to offer you a solution to the rut our criminal government put us in.
Last year when I was out meeting people in Milford I witnessed first hand the wreckage in our community. While I heard our leaders proclaim victory and told us all that our city was in "great shape" I was reading facts, researching statistics and gathering first hand stories from ordinary people struggling under the incompetence of this city's leadership. Statistics and facts do not support the lies that the liars tell. The city is NOT "In Great Shape."
Are you in great shape? Are your neighbors living large? Is your employer hiring? Giving raises, or optimistic? Well if they are perhaps you are one of the lucky ones who knows how to profit from misery, but unfortunately those ill gotten gains are on the back of a dying Middle class or a group about to be further decimated by the large Tax increases looming on the city books.
While you are being told we are in "Great Shape" remember that there are little things that marr the great reputations of the lying liars in town. These are those things deliberately not reported to the papers in the hope that you will remain ignorant and clueless enough to think that your city services being cut are no cause for alarm.
Yes that is correct over the last Ten years your property taxes increased dramatically and your city services cut to the bone. The city has been busy getting sued to the point of wiping out the city's legal defence fund and our schools need 100 million in repairs. What are our leaders doing about this impending disaster?Absolutely nothing! They are pretending these problems do not even exist. You are being told there is no cause for alarm, or in other words they are taking the Steven King horror novel approach.
When we put our trust into a political party who will say and do anything to keep the town and its people in a trance for its own political and financial purposes then its time to worry. Do not wait for your taxes to skyrocket, your house values plummet, or your credit rating destroyed. You see, as you are being told the town is in "Great Shape" and there is nothing to worry about they are busy finding a way to shift blame when things fall apart.
Do not let these criminals jump in the get away car! Take action become involved visit www.milfordindependentparty.com and vote out the thieving duopoly that has become nothing more than gang style rule in our town. Vote both parties out and support the Independent Party. Even if you think Independents are not going to win still vote for them because it is more honorable to let the criminals know that they do not control your vote.
At this point in the game, the mistakes made are so enormous, that regardless of who wins the solutions will be out of reach to either candidates in this election cycle. There is no one in the running this year that has any ability to solve any problems at the federal level and we urge you to take action. Vote Independent! Register to Vote as an Independent! and tell the Duopoly you reject Gangs running our town!

Fundraising Results, Put Republicans in Lead
If the municipal election were about money, the Republicans would be poised to regain majorities on the city’s three elected boards and commissions.According to early fundraising totals, the Republican Party has raised $34,300, compared to the $18,700 raised by Democrats, for the races for aldermen, Board of Education and planning and zoning. The newly formed Milford Independent Party has not officially raised any money for its under ticket candidates. The fundraising totals to date do not include what each party has raised for the mayoral races.
Republican Town Chairman Thomas Jagodinski said he knows an election is the quality of candidates, not money, but the party’s spirits are definitely on the upswing.
LIST: See who is running for office in Milford this November
More than 30 new members have joined the town committee, and two years ago the Republican had raised just $18,300 as of this date.
“Morale is high,” Jagodinski said. “The Milford Republican Party is strong and united.
“This reflects the enthusiasm in the party and people are excited about the campaign and are coming to fundraisers in greater numbers,” Jagodinski added.
Two years ago, Democrats stunned the local GOP by winning a 9 to 6 majority on the aldermen board, 7 to 3 margin on the school board, and a 6 to 4 advantage on the zoning board.
Just two years prior, Democrats were the minority on all three boards, and previously had been out of the majority for more than two decades.
Democratic Town Chairman Richard Smith said he’s not surprised by the fundraising totals, contending Republicans are backed by “big developers and a lot of the business interests.”
“We’re more of the party of the people, as evidenced by Democrats shepherding the first tax decrease in the city’s history,” Smith said. “At the end of the day it’s about the issues we stand for. Money won’t buy this election despite the Republicans attempts to do so.”
Smith said Democrats will get their message out by pounding the pavement and “sweat equity.”
But Jagodinski said he believes the Democrats seem to have more “politicians” in their ranks. He said GOP candidates share a similar philosophy: that local government should be about “neighbors getting together to make the city better.”
Milford Independent Party founder and mayoral candidate Peter Spalthoff said his underticket hopes to raise $5,000, but $3,000 is more likely. Concerning the mayoral race, Spalthoff said he has already raised $15,000 without conducting a fundraiser, and hopes to raise a total of $18,000.

Richetelli's Re-Election Would Cost Taxpayers Extra.
While I do not not know the exact details of his personal pension related future monetary entitlements, I do know that it will cost our city extra money over the course of his lifetime, beginning upon his retirement. While many like myself supported Jim in the last election with a sign on my lawn, this time around I do not plan to because I am of the opinion that the cost of retaining him is going to add too much future debt to our city.
This opinion of mine is not because I think Jim is a bad person or did a terrible job, its actually to the contrary I think Jim was simply the best choice of the candidates Running last go around. This year is different, we have three other choices besides Jim including my personal favorite Peter Spalthoff who believes in the fundamental fairness of "people and not politics." He is also a selfless individual who has lived in Milford many years and has been a part of many of our local clubs and organizations and traditions. Peter is the only person I ever met who personally invested his own money in our community. I cannot really say that about any of the other candidates.
This year I simply urge all voters to make the best choice for our city and with tax increases and out of control spending being the current theme we may want to think twice about voting for a person who will add additional pension obligations to the city's already over burdened treasury. Jim, in my opinion is a great person who will qualify for a very high paying corporate job after his retirement from the city. We need not worry about him or his future should he fail in his bid for re-election.
*********************************************************
6/14/09 Correction and an addendum to this Post.
The previous title of this post alleged millions, perhaps that is true or perhaps its not I did have the opportunity to get some more imput about this opinion of mine of which is changed a bit due to some new updates.
As it was explained to me the Mayor Recieves 2.25% in pension benefits for each year he holds office. Jim, should he get re-elected to his fifth term would qualify for 10 Times the 2.25% or 22.5% of his $93,000.00 a year estimated salary. This amount would be due and payable upon his 60Th birthday and would be subject to the review of the Pension and Retirement board. This board, at their discretion, could agree to give him Cost of living adjustments to compensate for inflation or like scenarios that could diminish the purchasing power of his pension check.
Should the mayor collect his pension from 60-90 or 30 years, this sum would total Apx. $21,000.00 Times 30 or $630,000.00 without cost of living adjustments by the board. How much this figure grows is entirely up to the Pension and Retirement board and their willingness to increase his benefits in the future.
The ultimate amount could be a million or more, but this is really contingent on how many years the Mayor collects, how many increases he gets along the way, and any other unforseen additional expenses (such as continued health coverage)related to this debt obligation. This figure is pure speculation.
Update 6/27/2009
Quote from Brian McCredy NH Register
"The combined city and schools proposed budget is $170.8 million, compared to this year's $160.1 million, representing a 6.69 percent increase. The proposed budget basically keeps services at the same level. Fixed costs such as health insurance, electricity, contractual wages, pension contributions and workers compensation make up 91.2 percent of the increase."

Post Election Notes
Thank you to everyone who believed in the Independent party, and thank you to the 10% of the people in Milford's 118Th district who agreed with me that the two party system is a failure. It is very hard to argue with the general population of our town who overwhelmingly voted for the two parties. This merely tells me that there is more trust and faith in the Republican and Democratic party than I thought.
The voter turnout was impressive, and the people of our district got the government they voted for. There is no one to blame this election than the newly elected unchallenged super majority in Hartford. Connecticut's legislature is comprised of enough Democratic leaders to say that they have attained power equalled to that of the one party system in Communist China. Rell's vetoes are more meaningless and reversible in the wake of a super majority, and with the Constitutional convention voted down, the people of Connecticut are powerless until the next election.
The Independent party, however did score a victory here in Milford, 10% of us told our local leaders that we have no faith in their parties and Independents can now register as Independents and not Unaffiliated.
We have also defined the very definition of insanity, going back to the same old two party system and expecting a different result. With the state mired in a Billion dollars in debt and the people of this state tapped and fleeing, the Liberals up in Hartford are going to have to put all their promises on hold.
Obama gave every Democrat in America a great push into many seats, and this Christmas the Grinch will end up being the Democratic super majority that profited from his "godlike" success. The Democrats in America have made more promises than the state has money. Their friends at their charities throughout the state are surely to be disappointed when our representatives roll around with an "empty hat" and a whole lot of unfunded promises. For this reason the Independent party has adopted the unpopular platform of making no promises and telling the truth about what the government can deliver.
This message was sent to our leaders thanks to the great many of you who were smart enough to recognize that when politicians say they have a "plan" that they have no "plan." That when they tell you they bring about "change" the actually just end up assimilating and nothing "changes."
With the dramatic events that are predicted to unfold in the coming years, those events that are so horrible as Biden and Obama says that he will be driven to "hard choices," it is safe to say that the Government is putting us all out to "pasture" in the coming months and years. My final message to all of you is to remember that God takes care of those who take care of themselves so prepare accordingly because we have no idea about how bad the "hard unpopular choices" are going to be.
The most scary thing about the Obama election is that his predictions nicely unfold "Conspiracy Fiction" into well documented fact.
