This was written by my friend, Monica Boyer to the Times Union. No need for commentary, since it pretty much sums up the democrat’s thought process with the RTW issue and how to handle it.
This is in reference to Mr. Bartley’s latest rant on his closed door “town hall” for the Right to Work bill. Since Mr. Bartley loves labels, let me give you a few of mine.
My name is Monica Boyer. I am a Christian, social and fiscal conservative, Tea Party leader, Republican, a mom and a wife of a union member.
I attended Sunday’s meeting because my family will be affected by Right to Work. I have been in politics for the last seven years, and I know how lobbying works. I know how fear tactics can be used (can’t say I’ve never used them myself), I know how talking points are used on both sides.
My family went to this meeting Sunday with no agenda but to find the truth. I’m a pretty opinionated person, but this day, I was truly on the fence, even leaning toward being frustrated with the Republican Party. I have been vocal about this, which hasn’t made any brownie points with my party.
What happened Sunday was nothing more than a hateful Republican bash session. There were no facts offered, just the pre-scripted talking points. No education, no counter points. We were told Republicans are evil. I learned right away that this was not a family friendly meeting, as “F” bombs were flying left and right.
When I removed my children, and came back in, some pastor was quoting Proverbs about how evil men must be destroyed, and those were the Republicans that must be destroyed. They speared our representatives, and talked about them being absent from this meeting. Not one time did Mr. Bartley mention he knew Dave Wolkins was in the hospital having medical tests. Tell me, how is that fair?
The kicker for me was as I introduced myself to the Democratic chairman, Mr. Bartley, and pleasantly told him that I enjoy hearing about the things their party is doing via email. He informed me he did not know how I got on their email database and that he wanted me removed immediately.
Is this how you attract new members to your party, sir, because if so, I now understand why our county has only seven Democrats!
I am not taking a public stand on RTW, and I support my husband in whatever decision he makes on this. I have no problem with a referendum. The union has treated us well, and we thank the Lord every day for our job. But shame on you, Mr. Bartley, for turning this into a party issue, and presuming to know how we feel about this topic.
Thanks to you, my husband, the conservative Republican dad and union worker, is now tagged and marked.
You know what I want? I want a conversation. Guns down, name calling put away, political party put away and all preconceived ideas put away; a conversation between both sides so I, as a Christian, a conservative, a Tea Party leader, a Republican, a mom and a wife of a union member can make up my mind with what is best for my family. It’s time to grow up and have this conversation.
If a TEA party leader can handle it … what is your problem?
I’m not sure what process took place to select these lawyers. Today, Anthony S. Churchward and Mark A. Thoma were appointed by the Allen County Defender’s Office to represent Michael Plumadore, who has confessed to killing and dismembering Aliahna Lemmon. Here’s a promotional video from the firm.

Frederick E. Maroney, is the father of convicted sex offender Mitchell Todd Maroney. Mitchell is Aliahna’s uncle and brother to Aliahna’s biological father Dawayne Maroney. Mitchell is currently in prison.
Frederick Maroney was convicted of child molesting in 1989 in Ohio. Normally I would wait for the court docs to be in my hands, but I have confirmed this, and once they arrive, I will post the case number and any details that are relevant.
I spoke with Frederick today. He acknowledged he is the father of the children listed below. When I inquired about the child molestation charges, there were a few moments of dead silence, and then he stated, “I’m not allowed to talk to the media, Goodbye,” and he hung up. He currently resides in New Haven, Indiana, just outside of Fort Wayne.
You won’t find him listed on any sex offender registries and I’m looking into that. I believe he simply fell through the cracks in Ohio’s system, given that Ohio was one of the last states to fully implement and adopt the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (link: PDF file) (“SORNA” or “the Act”), which is title I of the Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act of 2006 (P.L. 109-248),
Frederick and his eventual wife, Joy, had other children as well. Here’s the four I have been able to find.
Everett John Maroney 1/26/77
Dawayne’s Allen Maroney 7/27/78
Kenrick Leroy Maroney 2/13/80
Mitchell Todd Maroney 6/23/81
All 4 children were born before he married their mother; he did’t marry their mother, Joy, until 1982.
In 1983 temporary custody of all 4 was granted to Kenneth J & Roberta Shellenbarger of Paulding, OH. The Shellenbarger’s are now both deceased.
Here we go again. Indiana house dumbocrats House have taken cover in a judiciary consultation room, denying a quorum to do business on day one of the 2012 legislative session.
Pat “the Toupée” Bauer is hinting at another walkout over the GOP proposal that would make Indiana the 23rd state to bar unions from mandating that non-union workers pay union fees.
While it seems that Lyle Moser has kept his act together since 2005, he was once caught at Swinney Park in Fort Wayne and charged with “Public Indecency.” Swinney Park has been a well known trolling location for homosexuals for years. There are more convictions, (non-sexual) below the court docket entry.
Early last year, Moser filed for divorce from his latest wife, Amy Denise Moser. The divorce was granted 4/11/ 2011. Moser’s divorce against Tarah Lee Moser (now Souders) was granted on 20/20/2009 and Tarah was granted custody. The parties agreed that Social Security Disability payments would be in lieu of child support payments.
