I do have to confess, I have checked the firemens site from time to time, should I say pretty much from "morbid curiosity", however, my question to you is....how can I post a remark on this site, and then see it on that site? The same exact remark that I posted here? I did not think that the two sites were related, and I am hoping I am not wrong.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9599422.post-1153327911031873822006-07-19T12:51:00.000-04:002006-07-19T12:51:00.000-04:00Check the 2006 County budget, and you will see tha...Check the 2006 County budget, and you will see that the Legislators make $12,500/year. The majority and minority leaders get $1,000 extra (i.e. $13,500 total), and the Chairman gets another $6,750 ($19,250).

The Rant Squad no doubut lays claim to what they present as honesty, but your venom impeaches you on the other two.<BR/><BR/>BTW, I take no sides here; I have scant acquaintance with people on either side.

With two entirely different agendas. Granted some of your readers are probably glad to get rid of the Fire House ramblings.<BR/><BR/>I'm very suspicious of the comment to begin with. As it sounds like someone is trying to encourage you to attack SeeingGreeneFire.<BR/><BR/>I, like most of your other dedicated readers check the SeeingGreene site on a daily basis in hopes of catching your latest insights around GreeneLand. And I admit that I sometimes feel like an addict waiting all week for my next fix.<BR/><BR/>To put down your site is uncalled for, especially since you are responsible for waking up so many voices in GreeneLand. SeeinGreeneFire simply followed in your foot steps and utilizes its site in a Political Satire format to expose what it feels is the good old boy abuse of power and hypocritical double standards that are used against our fellow GreeneLanders so often by certain egotist that have managed to get into and stay in power.<BR/><BR/>SeeingGreeneFire may be considered by some to be unworthy of reading, but to others it has been the only means available to vent action against our political enemies. Interestingly, every means that we have used on the site, we have learned first hand from our opponents under handed dealings in the past. The only difference is that we have taken it to a higher standard of play.<BR/><BR/>Anyway Dick , I for one; hope that you keep doing what you've been doing because the SeeingGreene site is great! Keep up the good work, ShirlockSherlockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02222227159162777615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9599422.post-1152509072340976082006-07-10T01:24:00.001-04:002006-07-10T01:24:00.001-04:00viva truth detectivesviva truth detectivesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9599422.post-1152509058165629422006-07-10T01:24:00.000-04:002006-07-10T01:24:00.000-04:00Check out seeinggreenefire.blogspot.comCheck out seeinggreenefire.blogspot.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9599422.post-1152509033319464452006-07-10T01:23:00.000-04:002006-07-10T01:23:00.000-04:00man this site sucks compared to seeinggreenefire!!...man this site sucks compared to seeinggreenefire!!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9599422.post-1152474490447148852006-07-09T15:48:00.000-04:002006-07-09T15:48:00.000-04:00Kistinger running for legislature?Hee, Hee, Hee.
