Sheker and lies from local leaders
ReplyDeleteWeek after week the lakewood politicians lie and lie again to the public with no shame as they never hold true to their word. They do so with a straight face

This is the culture of deception lying and continue to fool people while they laugh all the way to the bank pilfering assets from the public and taxpayers.
The ones entrusted with the chinuch of the children get up by meetings and lie as they keep going back on their words
Why does lakewood keep having power outages

ReplyDeleteWhat is the story with the Night out against Crime in Pine Park? When is it happening this year?
ReplyDeleteI hope they aren't planning on canceling it again, our town can't handle that. Crime is up all over the country, and I am sure it is because they cancelled the night out against crime last year. Not long after that cancellation, the democrats stole an election. Who knows what they will do if there is no night out against crime this year?
Lobby your politicians, and make sure the night out isn't cancelled. We need free pizza, burgers, franks, and rides. That is the only way we will stop this crime nightmare.
I know those Democrats love crime, and they hate nights out against them, but we need to do it to show them that they won't win against us, we will fight crime as much as necessary, one frankfurter at a time.
Believe it or not the James and Williams traffic was not the fault of the town . The work is being done by the railroad which is a federal government agency. It is not Road work but track work. The local politicians pleaded with them to work on weekend but they don't care and they listen to nobody . Even the County and State have no control over this .
ReplyDeleteIt was not track work for the train it is construction for the light that will be installed at James and Williams they needed conrail to upgrade and move signals around.
DeleteIt's the federal government, those democrats. If Trump would be in office, he would never have allowed Lakewood to suffer so much
DeleteAlso email the mayor why they don’t allow shuls to be built
ReplyDeleteThe township always blames everyone but themselves. if the town would be build smartly and include more through streets the necessary repairs will be able to be done without causing chaos.
