07/02/10 Lt. Gov. Michael Fedele To Be A Dignitary At Town Hall While Disgraced Greenwich Resident Tom Foley Chooses To Stay Away

Calling All Patriots: Lt. Gov. Michael Fedele Will Attend July 4th Event At Greenwich Town Hall

Greenwich will recognize its roots — at the seventh annual Fourth of July celebration at Town Hall this Sunday at 9 a.m.

Bea Crumbine and co-organizer Jennifer Larkin want to make sure everyone remembers and reflects on the fact that Greenwich was on the front lines of the Revolutionary War.

The Sound Beach Community Band will play patriotic tunes. Thirteen Boy Scouts will march in carrying the flags of the 13 original colonies. The Boys & Girls Club of Greenwich’s Honor Guard will raise a replica of the Betsy Ross flag donated by Mr. and Mrs. Malcolm Pray. Children of the American Revolution will lead the crowd in the Pledge of Allegiance. Noel Valentine will recite the poem “The Flag.

Girl and Boy Scouts will read selections from the Declaration of Independence.

The names of the 16 citizen soldiers from Greenwich killed in the Revolutionary War will be read aloud and honored, names familiar to local residents — Mead, Palmer, Reynolds, Lockwood, Knapp. And 23 of their surviving descendants will be on hand.

The Greenwich Police Honor Guard will fire its cannon and Ms. Crumbine said there might even be a 21-gun salute.

Honored dignitaries in attendance will include Lt. Gov. Michael Fedele, U.S. Rep. Jim Himes, State Reps. Lile Gibbons and Fred Camillo, and Bruce Winningham, co-founder of the Greenwich Military Covenant of Care, as well as all three Greenwich First Selectmen.

Later, the audience will be invited inside Town Hall for refreshments, including apple cider and a piece of one of four “Happy Birthday America” cakes.

Greenwich voters can mingle and talk and get to meet Lt. Gov. Michael Fedele, who is running against Greenwich resident Tom Foley in the Republican primary this August.

The Town of Greenwich will be hosting fireworks displays Saturday, July 3, at 9 p.m. at Binney Park and Greenwich Point Park. The rain date will be Monday, July 5, same time and locations.

We are told that Greenwich Resident Tom Foley can not attend this hometown event, because he will be out on the road traveling to another destination.

Perhaps, the Connecticut State Police should issue a Tom Foley Road Rage Alert, so that motorists can be made aware that Mr. Foley's car is once again out and about.

Governor Wanna Be Refuses To Come Clean About His Domestic Violence Issues?


Tom "I Don't Have An Anger Management Problem" Foley Wants Voters To Believe That His Ex-Wife Lisa Foley Is A Habitual Liar.


Connecticut GOP gubernatorial candidate and Greenwich resident. Tom Foley:

First came reports of traffic arrests in the 80's and 90's.


Tom "I Don't Have An Anger Management Problem" Foley still isn't being straightforward and transparent with the voters about his two arrests that involved road rage incidents.


It appears that the very temperamental and privileged Foley thinks that he can respond to questions about his past through press releases.


Still Tom Foley refuses to personally provide the police and court records that might provide balance and context about his arrests in 1981 and 1993.


n one case, Foley's ex-wife alleges that Foley tried to force her car off the road.

Then there was the revelation of a report filed in 2002 by his ex-wife alleging abuse.

07/02/10 Is Rob Simmons Running A Stealth Senate Campaign Against Greenwich Resident Linda McMahon

Oddly enough, Michael Steele may have done Republicans a favor by claiming the war in Afghanistan was started by President Obama.

He made those comments last night in Connecticut, at a fundraiser for the state party at Abbott's Lobster in the Rough in Groton.

There was another reason to pay attention to this fundraiser, which no one is talking about because of Steele:

It was cohosted by former Rep. Rob Simmons, and his former Senate primary foe, Linda McMahon, was also slated to attend.

Here's why that's interesting.

For all intents and purposes, the Connecticut Senate race has moved into general election mode, but speculation has lingered that Simmons, though he suspended his campaign in May, is hanging around and hoping to steal the Republican nomination from McMahon, the former CEO of the WWE.

His name will still appear on the ballot in the August primary, along with McMahon's and that of Conservative Tea Party favorite Peter Schiff.

McMahon suggested in an interview with Hotline OnCall's Reid Wilson that Simmons might be running a stealth campaign against her.

Simmons and McMahon don't seem to like each other.

Simmons told The National Review, shortly after he suspended his campaign following a defeat to McMahon at the state GOP convention, that he wouldn't endorse McMahon and didn't think she could win. His campaign highlighted some cutting opposition research about McMahon's tenure at WWE, and all the sleazy stuff WWE's wrestling/entertainment regime encompasses.

Which would make Simmons' and McMahon's co-appearance at a state GOP fundraiser a bit awkward, if not quite a major story.

No one is really talking about that, or the smoldering bitterness of the Connecticut Republican Senate primary, thanks to Michael Steele.

Then again, Steele's comments don't exactly help Republicans in Connecticut, either.

McMahon is trying to run an outsider campaign, and the last thing she needs is the chairman of the Republican National Committee, the party's top establishment official, making headlines in Connecticut.
