Thank you so much for exposing the Housing Authority in New Bern. Having worked in the Department of Education and Department of Health, I saw so much waste it made me leave. It was so dishonest to take a salary there with so little actual work.
There is so much more waste that is not exposed even within Craven County. Liberals believe they are entitled to our tax dollars. The American public needs to know that BO has wasted $535 million in taxpayer dollars to subsidize a failing company owned by one of his biggest financial supporters. His administration kept quiet on Solyndra even after he knew it was nearly bankrupt and even gave it more money in a desperate attempt to keep it afloat. There are plans to spend another billion dollars on more “green technology” companies that produce products the American people don’t want or need. More than one “green” company has received our tax dollars with no profit for the people.
How many know about BO’s friend at GE, Jeffrey Immelt, who donated time and money to his presidency and then served as his top outside economic adviser on jobs? Immelt sent 21,000 jobs abroad. He also put his money in an off shore account to avoid paying some US taxes. Is that patriotic? I don’t think so. I think it is wrong to reward Immelt for donating to a campaign.

Sun Journal New Bern, NC: Housing authority board, mayor reach agreement
November 17, 2011
New Bern Mayor Lee Bettis avoided a temporary restraining order Thursday in Craven County Superior Court after agreeing to terms set by plaintiffs in a lawsuit against him.
Bettis was sued by New Bern Housing Authority commissioners after he brought charges against Ethel Sampson, chairwoman of the commissioners; Richard Peeler, vice chairman and Arabelle Bryant, commissioner, and later vowed to fire the entire board at a hearing Friday in City Hall.
Bettis’ attorney, Gary H. Clemmons of Chestnut, Clemmons and Peacock, PA., told Judge Arnold Jones that both parties had reached an agreement.
Bettis sat next to his attorney while Sampson sat between the Housing Authority’s two attorneys, Eric Remington and James Norment of the firm Ward and Smith.

New Bern Sun Journal: Housing authority sues New Bern mayor
November 16, 2011
The New Bern Housing Authority Board of Commissioners filed suit against New Bern Mayor Lee Bettis Tuesday.
It seeks to keep him from firing them by getting a temporary restraining order from a superior court judge on Thursday.
Bettis has threatened to remove the commissioners from office after a hearing he scheduled for 3:30 p.m. Friday and will not postpone.
One authority commissioner is out of town on a previously planned trip and will not be back in time for a hearing and another has a medical procedure scheduled.
A cover letter signed by Authority Chairwoman Ethel Sampson advising the New Bern Board of Alderman of the suit, said, “The board has suffered through his false accusations, intimidating behavior and erratic demands for long enough.
