Worst Person in Delaware Vol. 1 #1

Filed in National by on January 19, 2008

So many criminals, losers and screw ups in our midst’s that is is tough to pick just three.

At DelawareLiberal like a challenge, so here we go.

Worse:

Christine H. Truitt, a former Harrington finance director who stole more than $800,000 from the city by forging 383 checks over a four year period.

“I just want to say I’m truly sorry,” she said at her sentencing.

In fact, she was so broken up and sorry about the crime that according to the News Journal while she was awaiting trial (when she was not on lavish trips or doing some upscale shopping) she was seen around Harrington driving her new luxury car. She was also so contrite that she sold her home in Farmington during that pre-sentencing period and made no payments on her $800,000 dept to the town.

WORSER:

No surprise here: Gary Stockbridge who still has this statement up on the Delmarva Power Web Site.

A Message from the President

Welcome to our Web site focused on the renewable energy debate in Delaware. There has been a great deal of information in the media, some of it misleading, especially when it comes to describing the position Delmarva Power is taking on the proposed offshore wind farm in Delaware.

Sadly Stockbridge (a.k.a pointy toothed freak) forgot to mention that it was Delmarva putting out the misleading information. In a concerted PR campaign [which you and I are paying for!] to discredit wind power, Stockbridge published “$20 billion” as the start up cost for wind power. The actual start up cost…? Wait for it…..$2 billion.

Oopsie!

WORST:

Stockbridge, as horrible as he is, could lie his ass off and it would not impact me one bit. Wind Power is very popular and this is a Democracy right? We the people call the shots right? ….(silence)…….Uhhhm….right?

Wrong. Stockbridge has a bought and paid for base of toadies and henchmen in Leg. Hall. So the inaugural “WORST PERSON IN DELAWARE” has got to go to a member of that bi-partisan cabal that is working with Delmarva to scuttle the wind power deal…but who?

Hairless McDowell…he is pretty horrible. Slurman Adams…? God knows his open disdain for basic Democracy puts him in the running, but from our perspective the choice is easy.

Charlie Copeland, who unlike Adams and McDowell is trying to pass himself off as some kind of “Open Government” champion AT THE VERY SAME TIME he is cutting secret back room deals with Stockbridge. Copeland’s gross hypocrisy puts him over the top and I am proud to award the first WORST PERSON IN DELAWARE AWARD to Charles Lamont Dupont VonCopeland.

Congrats Charlie! You earned it.

See the lady at the “graft and greed” window for your check.

    Imagine my colossal surprise that your choice is a Republican.

    Me thinks you missed those responsible for the $41 traffic violation applied for Hit-and-Run Wharton.

  3. feralkid says:

    Make sure you clean up the spooge from that one.

    (Of course, you’re bit light on volume, I suspect…..robbed of your essence, eh????)

    WORST PERSON IN DELAWARE:

    RUTH ANN MINNER

    for her hysterectomy of a state of the state…..absolutely BARREN!

  4. jason330 says:

    Dave I picked the Republican due to the gross hypocrisy. I notice you don’t try to defend your buddy and that is probably a good call.

  5. Rebecca says:

    Great feature Jason and I’m looking forward to many more! Thanks for all the time and effort you put into this.

  6. Jason O'Neill says:

    My vote would have went to Stockbridge.

    Raising energy rate over 60% in 2005-2006, and then derailing any attempt to help the environment and ensure energy diversification is pure devious and deplorable.

    As Delawareans struggle to pay their home energy bills, he is laughing all the way to the bank.

    He should be locked up – FOREVER!

  7. jason330 says:

    I have a feeling Stockbridge will take the top prize sooner or later.

    In th emeantime we need to put pressure on his cabl of toadies in Leg Hall.

    COME CLEAN COPELAND AND SHOCK THE WORLD!!

    You left some on your lip.

  9. Dana says:

    With people like Tom Capano in the First State, y’all could only think of politicians who haven’t killed anyone?

    Some perspective missing here?
