ARE THE OCEANPORT DEMOCRATS HYPOCRITES?
THIS POSTING IS IN REPSONSE TO A REPORT POSTED BY WHAT APPEARS TO BE THE DEMOCRATIC MACHINE OF OCEANPORT. THE REPORT WAS POSTED ON SUNDAY, OCTOBER 29, 2006 BY A WRITER WHO CALLS HIMSELF OR HERSELF “OCEANPORT REPORTS”.

Unlike the Democratic writer this author does not have a problem with referring the reader from this blog to the Democratic Spin at their blog. However, the fictional Democratic writer does not have the courtesy or intestinal fortitude to refer this blog to their readers. WHY? Is it because those veteran Oceanport Politicians can not muster the energy to defend themselves against the facts posted at this blog. The Ted Ibex report on SHARED SERVICES certainly has that appearance. Just refer to this post for your answer? Did Oceanport Democrats Miss the Boat on Shared Services 2
The post by “OCEANPORT REPORTS” titled “SAY WHAT?” is exactly the response you would expect? The fact of the matter; the current Oceanport Democratic Controlled Government is a reactive group. It has been proven right here on this blog and supported by Town Council and Workshop Minutes, as well as Newspaper Articles. Please don’t be fooled by the Democratic nonsense. Just take some time and click on every article under the ARCHIVE SECTION on this blog and read them. They are very informative and factual.
After reading the two Blogs in their entirety, please formulate your own opinion as to whether or not Oceanport needs a change in the way the current Democratic controlled Borough does business and manages the Town. The Democrats have been in power for the last twenty-two years and have literally kept the residents in the dark on several key issues. Oceanport is need of a switch in parties to introduce some new faces and innovative ideas to the management of the town.
The Republicans of Ellynn Kahle, Joe Irace and William Johnson are a group of highly qualified and motivated young professionals who have innovative ideas, who are striving for an open and honest form of Government. They value the residents of Oceanport and will implement a method of keeping the citizens informed and up to date concerning the current issues affecting the town. They are willing to put the effort and time into management of the Borough and lead from the front, not from the rear. It is very obvious that the Borough of Oceanport is in need of direction by these qualified leaders.
The Democrats say that Ms. Kahle voted on every Budget. Well that may be true but, the Democrats have proven that they can’t manage the budget. Please read the article of the Democrats downplaying procedural errors in the managing of the Borough. Apparently somebody saw something wrong with the budget if the Borough had to hire the firm of FALLON and FALLON for the amount of $26,000.00 to conduct an Audit.
Interesting note; FALLON and FALLON was awarded the contract although this firm was $4200.00 higher than the lowest bidder. There were two other Firms with bids. WHY WAS FALLON and FALLON AWARDED THE CONTRACT?
Republican Councilman, Hugh Sharkey is a well respected Forensic Accountant who uncovered the many errors in the budget and located a $2000.00 donation made by the Accounting Firm of FALLON and FALLON to the Borough of Oceanport. Is that how FALLON and FALLON was awarded the contract to conduct the audit for $26,000.00? Isn’t this considered “PAY TO PLAY?”

UNCONTROLLED SPENDING IDENTIFIED?
The following article appeared in the Asbury Park Press on Monday, October 30, 2006. Please take the time to read it.
ELECTION COULD END OCEANPORT COUNCIL TIE
In this article the Current mayor stated the following:
Chaump said she does not take money from those seeking to do business with the borough, and Ibex said he is opposed as well, although he said that if people want to contribute as private individuals, they should be permitted to do so. LaBruno said he is opposed not only to the concept of pay-to-play but also to the practice of awarding patronage jobs to the politically connected.
This certainly raises a few questions:
FALLON and FALLON donated $2000.00 to the Borough of Oceanport and then awarded a contract to conduct an AUDIT for $26,000.00 of taxpayer money, although the bid that FALLON and FALLON submitted was $4,200.00 more than the lowest bidder. Wouldn’t this go against the statement provided by Ms. Chaump during her interview with the Asbury Park Press?
Additionally, the Blackberry Bay Park renovation contract was awarded to a company that donated $500.00 to the Democratic Candidates during the 2004 election, and then later returned it after the bid was awarded.

Then the Democratic appointment of a Borough Attorney by the name of Martin MaGann Jr. Click here PAY TO PLAY EXPOSED IN OCEANPORT? Or
Did Oceanport Democrats Bilk Oceanport Residents of Hard Earned Money or MORE CONFLICTS OF INTEREST?
Then Ms. Chaump stated this: Chaump said there needs to be more community involvement in the future of the fort.
Is this an admission that the current Democratic Controlled Government has been keeping the residents in the dark regarding the Fort Monmouth acquisition?
And as David Lettermen says the number 1 and the best statement was by Labruno who stated the following during his interview with the Asbury Park Press:
"Far too many people think you can run municipal government like a business, and you can't," he said. "Business is profit-driven. Municipalities can never turn a profit. You can't cut taxes, and you can't increase production unless you increase taxes."
If you were concerned about where your Democrats stand on the tax issue this statement says it all. If you can’t run a Government like a business, then how would you run it? And why would you use the word production if the Democratic Candidate is against running the Borough like a business?
The Oceanport residents are in fact the shareholders, and the Borough acts as the broker. Yes as a shareholder a profit or a surplus in the Borough account is expected.
For those of you who believe that Government can not turn a profit you are truly misinformed?
When Republican Governor Christie Whitman was in Office she was able to balance the budget and end up with a surplus in the general account.

Well, Thank You Mr. LaBruno for this piece of information. This will certainly help many residents with their decision on Election Day.
