Labor Day Picnic -
FREE!
The Delaware County Democratic Party invites all
committee people and Democratic activists to a free
Labor Day Picnic on Sunday, September 4th at 2:00 PM
(rain date Monday September 5th). The Picnic will be
held in Newtown Township at the home of Abu and Shelly
Rahman, 304 Crum Creek Lane. Abu is treasurer of the
Marple Newtown Democratic Party and leads the Asian
American Democratic Association of Delaware County.
Shelly Rahman is a member of the Pennsylvania Democratic
State Committee. Come out for an old fashioned picnic
and meet your fellow Democrats from around Delaware
County!
The following was written by Joe Hoeffel in an endorsement
announcement last week:
Larry Healy for County Controller in Delaware County
Larry has had enough of the Republican dominance in
Delaware County. He believes that the Republican Party is
abusing its longtime position of power and is ignoring many
groups outside of its key constituencies. Larry also knows
that the Republican tax cuts for the wealthy have gutted
needed funding for Delaware County. Residents are ready for
a change. As a former Township Supervisor and Police
Commissioner of Chester Township, Larry has the experience
necessary to truly change the system. I hope you will join
me in supporting Larry in his efforts to turn another county
solidly blue.
Regards,
Joe Hoeffel

Worth Repeating:
"Maybe the vice president can explain the
increase in casualties we're taking. If that's winning,
then he's got a different definition of winning than I
do."
--Republican Senator Chuck Hagel, mocking
Vice President Dick Cheney's assertion that the Iraq
insurgency is in its "last throes."
