AN OPEN LETTER

TO WILKES BARRE

CITY OFFICIALS


Dear Guys:
I know you suspended leave pick up and street sweeping because you felt people who have their own homes and businesses should take responsibility to do so themselves. Well, some do and most don't.
So in case you're wondering why so many storm drains clogged up given the heavy rains we experienced tonight, look to the autumn leaves.
An ounce of prevention for a pound of cure? Ever hear that one?

Rainy citizens of Wilkes Barre

LEONARDI SAYS THANKS

Congressional candidate Joe Leonardi sends a big shout out to those who helped him in his campaign. No thank you notices seen from Congressman Kanjorski but why debate the issue!
I would like to take a moment to thank all those that helped on the Leonardi For Congress campaign. While I would like to list everyone individually, I don't think the paper has the space. In addition to my wonderful family, I would like to at the very least, recognize the following:
General Campaign Manager David Spencer
Deputy Campaign Manager Paul Stebbins
General Campaign Coordinator Michael McCormick
Vice Chairman Edward Zabroski
Treasurer Lorri Vandermar
Webmaster Frank Vandermark (the man responsible for keeping our web site current )
Co-County /Election Day Coordinator JoyceDombroski-Gebhardt
Co-County Coordinator Gina Nevenglosky
Carbon County Coordinator Stephen Redash
Lackawanna County Coordinator Jim Williams
College Coordinator Joel Jukas
Video Media Coordinator Arnold Santos
Print Editors Joyce Hoban/Joseph Sainclair
Research Analyst Carol Chisak
Phone Bank Coordinator Betty Skawski
My patients, whose seemingly limitless understanding is greatly appreciated. Perhaps most importantly, my Office Manager Linda Carr. Because of Linda's incredible juggling ability, my business, personal and campaign schedules were kept in sync. Without Linda, Leonardi Family Chiropractic, Leonardi For Congress, and Joe Leonardi would have been a big blob somewhere in time. We ran a good campaign and though we lacked funding --- we more than made up for that with dedication, hard work and tenacity.There are many more people to thank and I wish I could list you all, but know that your efforts are recognized and appreciated.
Thank you,Joe Leonardi
Dr. Joseph F. Leonardi Republican Candidate U.S. House of Representatives PA District 11

THE MURTHA ISSUE

Maybe its for the better that the Democrats did not go along with Speaker Elect Nancy Pelosi's near endorsement of Congressman John Murtha. The Republican attack machine was oiled and ready to blast Murtha with his non involvement in the ABSCAM scandals of the early 1980s. This will be one less distraction for the new leadership.

VIETNAM NOTE

Pete Cassidy, Vietnam Vet has this take on the President's trip to Southeast Asia.
Gotta be something funny regarding Bush visit to Vietnam! Daddy couldnt get him out of it...Cheney used up all their deferrments...Figures its safe now 30 years later.So desperate to get out of Washington...
