In more and more conversations about new candidates the phrase “Ehrlich’s candidate” has come up. When a new guy surfaces I always ask, where did he/she come from or I wonder who is behind his/her candidacy. The answer has become more and more, Mr. Bobby E. There are several candidates in Harford County who have [...]

Craig vs. Wagner

May 25th, 2006 · 18 Comments

I am watching with interest the recent poll that was set up to match up David Craig and Rob Wagner. I know that the poll is anything but scientific and subject to non-republican, outside tampering.
The folks who are voting for Wagner should turn in their GOP card! Remember fellow Republicans, this is the same man [...]

Local Tax Rates Need Trimming

May 25th, 2006 · 1 Comment

I would like to commend both the Council and the County Executive on the way they worked a compromise on the recently approved budget. I do believe though, that it is becoming increasingly apparent that we should take a serious look at paring down some of the bloated tax rates that face Harford County residents.
As [...]

According to the 2000 Census data the median income per household in Harford County was $57,234. That is households people. Not per capita (per person). The average per capita was $24,232. I do not want to get bogged down in a discussion about statistics but I am not sure how else to look at the [...]

Blog in the Aegis

May 10th, 2006 · 6 Comments

I was a bit surprised to see a mention in the The Aegis. I was described as opinionated. I have no idea where Mr. Ward got that one from. Maybe it was the egg on Barry’s face or the picture of the County Council with no heads signifying a complete lack of leadership. Opinionated? Maybe [...]

For those of you who did not hear it, here it is:
Welcome and thank you for coming today. Thank you, Norm (Cochran), for the wonderful introduction.
