About the Hotel in Coatesville

It is a great thing that the project is moving forward. Keep in mind that this is a groundbreaking for the physical site of the hotel/office Building.

The primary reason for the provisional and final approval for the Pulver hotel/office building site plan was the grants for the land development were running out. If Pulver had not received approval at the Coatesville City Council meeting and at the RDA meeting there would have been absolutely no talk about a hotel being built.

Something similar happened when Andrew Lehr advised the Coatesville City Council to not give conditional and final approval to Carl Chetty’s “Pennock Place” on Third Avenue and Lincoln Highway in March of 2006. Chetty's plan was not given conditional and finial approval. Chetty Builders plan was at the end of the development clock and Chetty Builders had to start over from the very beginning. Chetty lost the people that put deposits on condominium flats and he lost his investors. I believe the Coatesville City Council basically killed the project, at least for a few years. I think that Lehr's objections could have easily been made a condition of finial approval. I believe that most of the Coatesville City Council members were unaware that they were effectively killing the project.

Carl Chetty was not permitted to speak at that Coatesville City Council meeting in March of 2006. The Coatesville City Council was considering tabling the conditional and finial approval of Pulver's Hotel plan. This time Don Pulver did address the Coatesville City Council and told them of the importance of conditional and final approval that evening.

The land will be readied for a hotel and office building. The actual hotel and office building will not be built until the financing for the buildings is available. That could by next year or it could be 2 to possibly 5 years down the road. I believe that if financial conditions continue to improve in South East Pennsylvania it will be sooner than later.

I think it is time for a wake up call to Chester County Republican Voters

The 1950's and early 1960’s was the time of Country Club Republicans that gave liberally to civic causes. The Eisenhower Republican Era of the 1950’s to early 1960’s that some of us remember is not a distant dream; it is a forgotten dream.

If he could come back President Eisenhower would not recognize his Party. He would see the Liberal wing of the Democratic Party as his soul mates. The “fringe nut cases” that existed in the Republican Party during Eisenhower’s time now have total control of today’s Republican Party.

Barry Goldwater was one of the people that President Eisenhower referred to as a “fringe nut case”. I firmly believe that had Barry Goldwater won the presidency instead of President Johnson we would now be radioactive dust floating in clouds around a barren planet.

Goldwater’s nut case prodigy is now in control of the National Republican Party. Those once fringe nut cases also control the Chester County Republican Committee.

If you define Liberal Politician in today’s political climate President Eisenhower would be classified as a Liberal Politician. Our last truly Liberal President may have been President Richard Nixon:

Our private “health” insurance companies are a doorway to the poorhouse, pain and the funeral home

Many US citizens understand that fact; some do not until it is too late.

There are consequences if we do not pass a government run public option health care plan and continue to proceed along the same destructive path that has led many ounce proud United States citizens to financial ruin. We all have personal knowledge of someone who has fallen victim to a “health” insurance company. Homelessness, joblessness, financial ruin, chronic pain and early death from an insurance companies withdraw of coverage is worst nightmare lurking in the thoughts of every working middle class American.

Without a public government run alternative to private insurance the poor health care working Americans are subject to and the financial risks associated with it could reach new disastrous lows. Health care would become too expensive and out of reach for middle class Americans. The middle class as we now know it would quickly become the poor class.

It is not that way in other developed countries.

Without a public government run option for working people any reasonable United States citizen of average means in the beginning or middle stages of life will be faced with a decision. If he or she stays in the United States a major illness or accident has the very real and eminent threat of financial ruin for their family and the very real possibility of an early and possibly painful death. A person with marketable skills or an entrepreneur of limited means will have no reasonable choice but to immigrate and become a citizen of another country.

Maybe other countries will take pity on us and accept immigrants from the USA for humanitarian reasons. France could take back Statue of Liberty back and begin the exodus of the once proud American Middle Class and take on the mantle of the “Golden Door”.

Great way to describe health care provided by Government

A great way to describe real health care provided by government like Medicare or the Veterans Administration as opposed to medical insurance that you think you have until you get sick and the insurance company finds a way to not pay.

I think Cheney is masquerading as a patriot.

Everyone is denying the elephant in the room; that Dick Cheney’s intention in beginning a torture protocol for interrogations was never to gain accurate information. I believe everyone even remotely connected with interrogation techniques and especially Dick Cheney, knows that tortured people say whatever the torturer wants them to say. None of the information gained by torture is reliable.

Cheney was a regular at CIA Headquarters; he really had no business directing the CIA and no business visiting CIA Headquarters.

I think the reason for the establishment of a torture policy was to get “confessions” that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. That coerced information was to be used as an excuse to invade Iraq and later pump oil on Halliburton pumps.

In the long run it didn’t matter much to Halliburton and it’s subsidiaries that there were no weapons of mass destruction. They and Cheney profited immensely by grossly overcharging and effectively looting our government and Iraq’s government.

I think Cheney is masquerading as a patriot. I believe he is just a war profiteer who could care less about what country he lives in, he serves Halliburton.

BYE BYE MISS PATSY! SHEEES OUTTA HERE!

Brazzle is still on the ballot for Coatesville City Council at Large running as a Democrat.

Ingrid W. Jones is on the ballot as a Democrat for Coatesville’s 2nd Ward.

I do not yet know if Brazzle changed his registration to Republican.

I guess Ernie wasted his money on a looser, see campaign finance statement- Patsy Ray:

In the USA you doctor and nurses are just puppets; your insurance company and their Wall Street backers hold the strings.

Private medical insurance companies make money by withholding health care for their insured. They make their money by getting out of paying for your health care. The policy holder is not their customer the companies shareholders are their customers. And if you get really sick you will find out that you insurance company calls the all shots, not you or your doctor.

With government health care plans, you are the customer not some wealthy Wall Street dude. That is the difference between government health care and private medical insurance.
