WHY IS CHARLIE SELLING A REVENUE MAKER OF MILLIONS??? Everyone should be asking this. Does your dentist sell his drill? (Ok, yeah, we wish..but) Does the baker sell his oven? Well, it is proven that this is a money-maker and he wants to sell it!!

On All 6 Alley leasing finalist invited to make offers

Posted on June 15 at 7:49 p.m.

Per the Philadelphia Bulletin paper - 5/27/08, page 4: "Lower-Than-Expected Bid Contributing to Dissent in Legislature" In the aritcle, it states, "Folks here talked about leasing the turnpike for $20 billion, $25 billion, or $30 billion, so to see the figures just over $12 billion with ONLY TWO BIDDERS seems a bit disappointing." both offers were by a Madrid based company. One company, Citi Infraestructure is a division of Citigroup - BUT, both companies have the same major shareholders! How interesting, the Governor, Ed Rendell paid his former law firm, more than 2M for legal work on the deal without legislators' knowledge. And, ONE SUBSIDIARY OF CITIGROUP GAVE THE TURNPIKE FINANCIAL ADVICE WHILE ANOTHER DIVISION WAS BIDDING TO LEASE THE HIGHWAY!! It's all reported, including the "secrecy and cronyism". READ THE ARTICLE!!

This is dirty - like our deal!! Now, won't it be interesting to see how our bids come in, and then how much lower we accept!!

Write this paper and the governor!!

On SPECIAL REPORT: Alligator Alley could fall into international hands

It is about time this was exposed. My husband received a ticket which was wrong. He fought. Twice he went, and twice the officer didn't show up. On the third time, he sat the entire day until they asked him why he was there. Then they dismissed it. In the interim, the entire day, NOT ONE PERSON WAS FOUND INNOCENT!!! I also went a few years ago, found guilty. But, while waiting I witnessed the same, NOT ONE PERSON FOUND INNOCENT. One many came with the best evidence I ever saw - photos, maps, etc. - TV would have been proud to show it. Same thing - guilty. I could not believe it.

IT IS ABOUT TIME!!! And, anyone who disagrees, why don't you go see for yourself!! Go sit for a day and watch BEFORE YOU SPEAK!!

Does McDonald's sell its grill? Does your surgeon sell his scaple? So ask yourself -- why are we selling a profit producing road???? The Alley makes 10MILLION NET PROFIT for the state every year!! Why would we sell it???

What a great story. It reminds of a local family -The Gaelic Gormans who perform here. Don't stop Ben, I hope you get to the World Championship!
