The Queen of the Big Spenders is Back!
POTTSTOWN, PA – Unfortunately it’s that time of the year again folks. Time for one psychologically unbalanced and mentally disturbed local activist to start unearthing the jars of pennies buried in his backyard and cash them in for dirty marketing campaign propagandic junk mail. Courtesy of our civil servant friends at the Montgomery County... »
The “Smart-Growth Leader” Speaketh
POTTSTOWN, PA – Right now…as we’re writing this…a fraudulent bill of goods is being peddled to an unsuspecting group of folks not too far from Pottstown.
