Chatam Baseball: I'm pretty sure Josh Dunn resigned from Beatty's campaign because Beatty didn't pay hime the right amount of money to begin with. Word around town and in the newspapers was Beatty was embarrassed with Josh Dunn resigning from the campaign and thats how why Beatty became immature by canncelling his paychecks. I agree whole heartidly with everything you are saying but Josh is pretty popular with a lot of people and he's the type of person who would never have a reason to be fired from anything and he is very active with a lot of Cape Republicans.What Beatty did to him though was disgusting and should never have happened and people who give money to that campaign have contributed to scumbag actions towards a real Cap Cod Veteran.

Dead on the money ChathamBaseball.They both are ineligible for the VFW. People should look into Beatty's record's to see if he even holds a Combat Infantry Badge which he wheres so proudly on his suit which is utterly freaking disrespectful to anyone who served in the infantry.(he doesn't) Why hasn't anyone asked the question of where is Delahunt's proof that gave him a Veteran status? I mean there has to be some document that gave him Veteran status to begin with to have it on the ballot.Somebody gave that status to him, he didn't just wake up and say oh hey Im going to call myself a Veteran today. This is smear politics by Beatty but it probably would have worked for him if it wasn't two weeks before the election...too little too late.Obviosly its crunch time for him and he is scrambling for something so his ego won't be bruised. Like I said all the candidates in the race are ass clowns but I'll stick with the one we alreay have.

Point well taken taxpayer, but Im in no way sticking up for Delahunt's idiocracy. If you read my comments I don't like any of the candidadtes. I think they are all special in their own kind of retarded way.If your an active member of the DAV then why are you turning this into a partisan issue? I served with people far worse than Delahunt who are allowed to call themselves Veterans and they never did a single thing for me. I like the V.A programs down here and I utilize them weekly, Im not saying Delahunt is the Soldier of the Year for these programs but us DAV members know which elected officials had there hands in it. If you need me to research that for you and email it to you I will because your obviously miseducated. Thats all I said about Delahunt who personally I cant stand anyway becuase of his Hugo Chavez love affair. What does outrage me though taxpayer is that if somebody went through my DD-214 which is in a lock box and brought it public I would do everything I could to ruin that persons life...no lie. You know as much as I do that the document is not public information.

Listen you all are missing the BIG picture on this. All the candidates in 10th Congressional district suck! They are manipulating ass clowns bred from evil.Delahunt may not be a Veteran because of oversought facts that he himself may not have known. This is fine with me considering all the crapbags I served with who went AWOL and STILL received a medal for the war I served in, in which they didn't even step foot on the same soil I did. Same ball park.
To me the definition of a real Veteran is one who engaged in combat to serve our country.To me a real Veteran is eligible to join a VFW..is either candidate?(no)A real Veteran will support other Veterans and get their hands dirty to help them.A real Veteran concerns themselves with the people and not when the next national news networks are going to have you on their shows as some blah blah blah expert where your are seen by less than 1% of the country who will forget you five seconds after they saw you.Bill Delahunt in my book is a Veteran of fighting for the Veterans who are in the V.A system who are disabled from war.

Train rides? WHo does this guy think he is Willy Wonka?KMA is right he'll waste his time and money and meet no one.Bill Doherty who is the current County Comissioner (which no one mentioned) has given no reasons for the people to not re-elect him. He's a well liked moderate that has the respect of the Republicans and also well liked by Democrats. I don't even understand why we're having this discussion. I hear Tom Bernardo is campaigning hard in Hyannis because everyone in Chatam thinks he is looney toons!!

Could this Be Jeff Beatty at court? Humiliated like Ken Chase!

Bill Delahunt is more pro-veteran than Jeff Beatty the ringer from DC who doesn't even campaign or have lawn signs. Looking at his recent court debacles it doesn't even look like he has any money because his own employee's paycheck has bounced.

P.S----Nice makeup job except his face is a little more red in person from the whiskey!!!

After Dick gets done with the pizza will there be any left?.....Doesn't he resemble "Fat Bastard" from the Austin Powers movies?

I beleive the right thing will come out of this.

Don Howell is the only hope now for the Republicans to re-gain this seat. Don will favor well as fair-minded moderate.Although you are another good moderate Andy. Go back and get your selectman's seat!.....Do Right For The People!

Aaron Maloy should not be introduced as a candidate at this forum.It would be utterly disrespectful to the voters,Don Howell, and the people attending the forum who will be mislead.

No Andy there is no blogs for congress, I just figured I would bring this to your attention since you are pro-veteran.
It just isn't right.

Andy I would be concerned with Jeff Beatty ripping off a fellow Veteran. As a Republican it suprises me that only a few elected officials have stepped up and help this kid. Like my dad said before I went to Vietnam - "Right is right and wrong is wrong, now get your ass out there and right the wrongs!"
I think candidates who aren't in the race anymore should fight for something else like this kid getting ripped off by lying politicians.

I personally am not worried about Mr. Delahunt's relationship with Hugo Chavez. What worries me is the fact that his opponenent Jeff Beatty would rip off another Veteran from this community.
