One lie after another from the make-believe mayor.

None of whay he wrote above is true. Proposed cuts to the school budget for FY19 do not affect increases in teacher salaries and benefits or building maintenance.

There were no "new positions."

There is also no such thing as "School Committee Administration" or "school committee staff," and administrative staff did not increase by 30 percent as teachers were reduced by 30 percent.

(The current teacher population is just under 900; in order for his claim to be true, the district would have had to layoff some 450 teachers, or 30 percent of 1,350.)

His lies do nothing to influence the ongoing budget discussions; if he were not so intent on humiliating himself through his use of this website for free political advertising, he would realize that his best contribution would be his silence.

But he is intent on proving his unfitness for office, which honest, taxpaying voters will reward by rejecting his candidacy on Sept. 12.
