  1. This is funny….

    Liberal democrats in this city are so entertaining. What are you going to talk about Jim…How you and Taxman Failurentini absolutely destroyed the quality of life for citizens of Haverhill?

    This seems all so familiar, doesn’t it Jim? Scott Woods taking a play right out of your playbook by announcing a failed politician as a guest speaker. Remember when you use to bring in Cadillac Teddy Kennedy to your summer cookouts? Geez, it seems like just yesterday Teddy would come rolling in to Winnekenni Castle with Reggie by his side and all you Liberals would go running as if the Pope himself had arrived. And look at newby liberal Scotty treating you like royalty now….See what working to burden taxpayers with $100Million in debt gets ya? And how nice that nobody seems to remember, huh Jim?

    • Jimmy X 2 = Hale debacle.

      Jimmy #2 blames Jimmy #1 for the Hale debt, even though Jimmy #2 was on The City Council and supported it (but doesn’t want that mentioned). As for Mr. Wood, he doesn’t beleive in that small thing called The First Amendment, like “free speech”, post something on his FB page that is critical, and just like every other pols in Massachusetts, they delete it. In the case of Jimmy #2, he outright bans people like me, as does The Massachusetts Attorney General. Anything, any criticism, or any thought against the status quo must be SILENCED.

      Welcome to The Banana Republic of Massachusetts.
