However, I wanted to highlight a quote from today's Cranbury Press which I think we all need to consider and am thankful Jay Taylor has this sight and strength as a new TC member to make a stand on the record. Regardless of party we should consider this to be the closing remark. I hope the Republicans respect this position for Mayor Stout and that those saying Jay's a teabagger because of party see he's considered 2 Democrats and one Republican and voted for a Democrat based on town interest. <br /> <br /><span style="font-weight: bold"> ”The mayoral role should go to a veteran committee member of whom we are fortunate to have three qualified individuals — Mr. Stannard, Mr. Stout and Mr. Cody,” Mr. Taylor said. “Mayor Stout being both a veteran committee member and a past mayor is qualified to hold the position. Therefore, it was important for our town that I join with Win in a bipartisan show of support for Mr. Stout.”</span> <br /> <br /><a href="http://www.centraljersey.com/articles/2010/01/08/cranbury_press/news/doc4b4668881fa57080407899.txt" target="_blank">http://www.centraljersey.com/articles/2010/01/08/cranbury_press/news/doc4b4668881fa57080407899.txt</a></span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>CranburySauce</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Thu, Jan 7 2010, 12:12 pm EST<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Re: The January 4, 2010 Township Committee Reorganization Meeting</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">Perhaps this thread is dead, but I'm curious: How come nobody's talking about the most significant decision taken by the TC on Monday night? <br /> <br /><a href="http://cranburysauce.wordpress.com/2010/01/07/with-planned-beach-cranbury-will-become-middlesex-countys-riviera/" target="_blank">http://cranburysauce.wordpress.com/2010/01/07/with-planned-beach-cranbury-will-become-middlesex-countys-riviera/</a></span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Guest</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Thu, Jan 7 2010, 10:23 am EST<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Re: The January 4, 2010 Township Committee Reorganization Meeting</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">Give it up this thread is dead.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Guest</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Thu, Jan 7 2010, 7:59 am EST<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Re: The January 4, 2010 Township Committee Reorganization Meeting</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody"></span><table width="90%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center"><tr> <td><span class="genmed"><b>Guest wrote:</b></span></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="quote"> <br />I sort of agree with this person.

These actions are a matter of record. By comparison, you are alleging based apparently simply on your personal instinct that Mr. Cody and Mr. Thomas hold certain worldviews you disagree with that are not even in evidence. What are you basing this on since it doesn’t appear to be based on anything they said or did during their campaigns or their actions in office so far? <br /> <br />And the notion the posts here are all part of some campaign to “belittle” the current Democrats on the Committee, that’s just silly. Some of the posters who have raised criticism are Democrats and some even voted for Mr. Cook. And numerous people here have voiced their continued support for Mr. Cook, even has they expressed disappointed that he didn’t act consistently with a campaign statement. Remember, this exact issue of Mr. Stout’s history of packing board positions based on party affiliation was raised during the campaign. So if this is all an elaborate effort to belittle people, it was setup a long time before the campaign even started as it’s been discussed here for at least two years.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Guest</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Thu, Jan 7 2010, 12:45 am EST<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Re: The January 4, 2010 Township Committee Reorganization Meeting</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody"></span><table width="90%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center"><tr> <td><span class="genmed"><b>Guest wrote:</b></span></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="quote"></span><table width="90%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center"><tr> <td><span class="genmed"><b>cranbury liberal wrote:</b></span></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="quote">Wow, you are so off-topic.

While Stave was Mayor there was bickering here to be sure. But somehow it was worse previously when Stout was Mayor and he's not in that position a few days again before the tone here turns more aggressive. Perhaps it is because he is the perceived leader of the coalition of democrats, whether true or not, or perhaps it is just because the guy is unlikable. I have no idea. It's also interesting you never read people defending Stout. You get people counter posters on politics and disagree about the issues like the Library. But I hardly ever recall anyone posting, “you got him all wrong, he’s a great guy and here’s why.” Why is that? I don’t really know him personally so I’m just curious.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Guest</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Wed, Jan 6 2010, 10:44 pm EST<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Re: The January 4, 2010 Township Committee Reorganization Meeting</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">This thread is all over the place.

The reasoning that has been given to support Win for the Planning Board seat is his "different opinions", which is akin to party affiliation. <br /> <br />I'm not saying Win shouldn't have been selected, just pointing out what appears to be an inconsistency in the logic above.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Guest</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Wed, Jan 6 2010, 8:18 pm EST<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Re: The January 4, 2010 Township Committee Reorganization Meeting</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody"></span><table width="90%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center"><tr> <td><span class="genmed"><b>Wrong wrote:</b></span></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="quote"></span><table width="90%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center"><tr> <td><span class="genmed"><b>Guest wrote:</b></span></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="quote">Has anyone noticed that the Planning Board is filled full of Republicans?

Taking out the TC reps you have Mrs. Weidner, Mr. Harvey, and Mr. Dulin all are registered Democrats. Mr. Kehrt and Mr. Speer I do not know their affiliation. Mr. Whalers is a Republican I believe. <br /> <br />They are fair, intelligent people and should not be brought into this discussion they have nothing to do with this discussion about TC operations. In fact Tom Weidner was very much supportive of bipartisanship in his term on the TC. <br /> <br />I wish you had posted your name since your posting false information in the hopes people would be uneducated.</td> </tr></table><span class="postbody"> <br /> <br />So one confirmed Republican and at least 5 confirmed Democrats but it is "full of" Republicans.
