Quoted from Salvatore

Senders you don't have to be insulting to anyones heritage do you? OK now we know they do their pow wow at Scarboroughs which is a joint I haven't been in since it was cardianal puffs pub which dates me a  little I guess. So now we know thank you at least for bringing us into the light over here Senders. Now does anyone know if the paper is doing a report or anything so we know if the thing went favorably for the people of the town. I hope the repubs dumped him hard last night for all the trouble he stirred and they better watch out too since all of their people are gonna get dumped in November and the year next too. All the trouble the made and worse none backed Angelo in his ideas to balance the budget over there in the county especially MERTZ the back - stabber

Ah for the love of christ will Sal's family please take the f**king computer away from him.  I tried like hell to read that post and I actually felt myself becoming dumber as I read on.  I know this has nothing to do with the topic, but i can't take it any more.  The lack of any discipline when it comes to the english language really disturbs me, it actually hurts my feelings
When I think of Sal posting, I envision him as the typical Rotterdam Italian, with a wife beater t-shirt on, smacking away at the keyboard, all while drinking homemade wine, of course.
Sorry Sal, just had to get that off my chest. It has nothing to do with what your saying, it's just how you are saying it.  Oh' and please stop with the "over here", everytime you use that phrase I literally make a fist, grit my teeth, then punch myself as hard as I can in the crotch.

righeous, I thought I'd spit my soup out while reading your post.

That was phenomenal. Rather than self inflicted CBT, I'd suggest using the "block user" function - it's a lot less painful

May I first say that this is the BEST EVER!!!!

Second, I heard that Mertz made out ok at the rep comittee meeting. The issue is probably with Parisi. But that's a no brainer!!

Justin Mason was at our Town Board meeting last night.

And righteous.....I'm still cracking up over your post.  

I read the posts to this thread.  It seems that most everyone here but this Salvatore person is supportive of Mertz.  Why wouldn't Mr. Parisi want the party to endorse him for reelection?

There are many theories out there. Some factual and some mere speculation.  It is the proverbial layered onion, and sadly a case of old time Rotterdam politics as usual resurrecting again!

And by the way....disregard good ole' sal. He's clearly an insider just shooting off his mouth to stir the pot. (who does that sound like )

Quoted Text

who does that sound like

??

Dunno

It sounds just like Johnny boy Mertz except it isnt' it is me SALVATORE and the difference over here is that I am not a self - serving lawyer who wants to run the police department bare chested and filled will hate for the boys in blue like he is.

Nobody hates the police Sal, but I'll be the first to state that if we don't do something about the escalating costs of the teachers and the police departments contracts there will come a time when we won't be able to pay for them. We can't keep paying higher taxes every contract to feed their salaries and pensions when we don't have the money to pay our bills.

This whole cop thing started at the end of 2006, when the Gazette pounded the Town Board for being asleep at the wheel when a certain officer retired at $95k, when his base salary was $60k. The question, was how could this happen. Shouldn't there be certain safeguards built into a contract to prevent this? Hence....enter a proposed/failed police commission.

Now...if the only sin Mertz committed, after being blasted by the Gazette, was to try to produce some oversight and savings for the taxpayers of Rotterdam, than crucify him! And all along I thought that was not only his job, but the job of the entire 'elected and paid for by the taxpayer's', job!

I could be wrong here..... ....but I don't think so.

So, some people are against Mr. Mertz because he was doing the job that he was elected to do?

Leave our police alone already! Why do you keep it up? What is worng with you people over here? Mertz is not ever gonna be elected to anything after what he did to destrpy the boys in blue and break the moral like he did. Stop the penny ante treatment over the pensions of the men. the town under Tommasone gave them the right to get the pensions and they took it SO WHAT? It is Tommasones fault anyway then he puts Mertz in to do the dirty work he was afraid to do. The FBI should be brought in to arrest M_rtz over this tampering with the evidence and pearl handled gun and that. You fight a losing war over there my friends.

You might be correct Sal, but I thought Tommasone and that administration inherited the contract that was actually negotiated by a previous administration. Could you find out for us 'over here'?

well who is the boss in the town? why blame someone else when you have a supervisor or mayor? Tommasone is where the buck stops indeed
