POTTSTOWN, PA – While we really despise the end of the year news cycle between Christmas and New Year’s (especially this year since it marks the end of a decade), we thought we would shamelessly seize the moment and take a look back at 2009 in the life of our favorite fringe political activist... »

POTTSTOWN, PA – Since the end of 2009 is quickly approaching, we were doing a little year-end reflecting and thinking about the comments Harry Price made earlier this year when speaking of our favorite elected official: “…somehow Mr. Hylton knows more about education and running the borough”…“Why don’t we just name him the ‘czar... »

POTTSTOWN, PA – Riddle us this Batman…why does Tom Hylton continue to do business with and recruit activists that don’t live/operate in Pottstown? Right up there with Stonehenge, one of the big mysteries of the universe is Hylton and his lovefest with the Wausnock brothers (George and Dennis).  What’s up with that?  We just... »

POTTSTOWN, PA – Finally!  The Pottstown Mercury has finally published an article pulling the curtain away…and exposing the TRUTH!  The Mercury published the following article, “Taxpayer costs add up in disputes over records,” on December 24: http://www.pottsmerc.com/articles/2009/12/24/news/srv0000007157971.txt As so many SavePottstown!! readers already know, Tom Hylton has been keeping his own personal Right to... »

A Visit from the Taxpayers (our apologizes to Clement Clark Moore) A look into Pottstown’s Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come… ‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through Hyltonville Not a creature was stirring, not even The Mercury’s best known shrill; The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that... »

POTTSTOWN, PA – Tom Hylton has placed yet another soppy ad in today’s Pottstown Mercury.  Unfortunately, you can’t read it online (since Hylton is too cheap to pay for online ads) and we guess he didn’t pay his webmaster this month…since it’s not posted on his Pottstown Citizens (www.pottstowncitizens.org) site either. (NOTE: Just checked... »

POTTSTOWN, PA – These comments bear repeating.  Originally posted online in The Pottstown Mercury’s comments section on December 4, 2009, our hats off to the poster known as “What are you fighting to protect”.   Obviously a seasoned taxpayer of Pottstown, this poster has made some very insightful observations of Tom Hylton and his 20+... »

POTTSTOWN, PA – So, Tom Hylton wants an “unbiased” review of the Pottstown Schools during the upcoming winter break?  So, who gets to pick the architect?  Hmmm…we wonder??? If you haven’t already, check out today’s Pottstown Mercury:  http://www.pottsmerc.com/articles/2009/12/20/news/srv0000007117335.txt Hylton is up to his old tricks…again.  If he really wants an unbiased review, maybe he... »

POTTSTOWN, PA – If you live in Pottstown and ever had to remove a tree from your property, you’ve most likely had the unpleasant task of having to deal with Tom Hylton.  Our sympathies dear taxpayers.
