CNBNEWS | FEBRUARY 2012 CHEERS AND JEERS

 

BY BILL CLEARY

 

(cnbnews.net) JEER-A study by NJ State Comptroller Matthew Boxer discovered that some municipalities \"6a00d8341bf7d953ef0105369fbfbd970c-320wi\" are overpaying for employees health insurance. Boxer’s report found that insurance brokers working for Essex and three other local governments — the townships of Brick, East Brunswick and Haddon Township — charged $1 million in fees between 2009 and 2010. The state health plan doesn’t levy those fees and charges less because it has more people in its system, the report said.

One of the insurance companies that have benefited is Conner Strong which is run by South Jersey Political Boss George Norcross III.


JEER-Imagine if Ron Paul announced a national campaign called ‘Whites for Ron Paul’ – he’d be vilified as a racist. Yet Barack Obama has done the equivalent of precisely that with his launch of ‘African Americans for Obama’. Obama is urging black people to pressure churches into supporting his administration by getting his message out via \”the faith community.\” He also calls on black voters to become \”congregation captains\”. What happened to his campaign promise to unite our country be they black or white. Not only is Obama playing the race card in an attempt to pressure black Americans into voting for him, he is also violating the separation between church and state. 

CHEER-Pam Jenkinson, who has been a volunteer for many civic organizations in Brooklawn, was the recipient of a Community Award given to Outstanding Residents that contribute to the good of the community. \”If you want to live in a great place, come here to Brooklawn\” Jenkinson said.
