Hey, in the Town of Meredith, where like all NH towns, the selectmen are basically considered non partisan, neither Democratic or Republican. Anyway, the vote on the Meredith town budget line items recently was consistantly three to two, and my guess is that at least four out of five of the selectmen (4 guys & a gal) are Republicans.

So, for Republicans, these three Selectmen: Frank Michel, Bob Flanders, and Peter Brothers all like to go very heavy with the butter when voting on the town budget. Maybe the three should be called the Meredith butter-boys? As a real estate attorney, waterfront home builder, and mortgage officer, they all benefit themselves with high property taxes, as high property taxes increases sales turnover, and they all like to go heavy on the town budget butter. Are these local Meredith politicians buttering their own bread, or what?
