not even .006% of the population of the town of rotterdam is qualified or wants the job
changes to the town code in the paper today

Why don't you explain further and clarify.


"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."

HAHAHAHAHA, on no wait, sorry let me change that: MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHMMMMMUUUUUHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!

How's that? Sound more "nervous?"

Character assassination is usually a good way to make sure no one comes back. I have seen the tactic before. But fear not: Actually though, I hear he has been busy throwing himself into his business pursuits far more than he had for 8 years, is enjoying married life, his social connections throughout the country, and has turned down all requests to get back involved to anything more than giving advice, which has normally not been listened to so he gives less of it these days. Also I hear he is still involved with helping veterans and troops and other charitable efforts. But no, far from a 'nervous breakdown' I suspect his stress level is lower than ever, even if his business was extremely busier this year and he had to work 16 hour days for weeks on end. And no, he is not moving in the near future and his business is not on the market, although as anyone with a thriving business knows, the right offer could change everything. After all he has been doing it for 20 years+ now.

However, when one devotes all that time to civic affairs for so many years (only to be called a gangster and asked to follow the money under the assumption that political figures do it all for $) one really doesn't get to reap as much from one's business and one finds that there is much more compensation to be had in the private sector when one devotes his interest and energy to it. So be of good cheer, Suhrada has invested wisely in land in Saratoga county (I hear the county taxes went DOWN! and there is no town tax) and enjoys that work along with his favorite hobby of restoring vintage cars from the 1960s. He even gets time to go to car club meetings too rather than work at politics! Don't worry about him!

Felipe-why ask such a question of GB?  Whether or not people agreed with Suhrada's politics is irrelevant at this time.  He was and is someone who is passionate about his beliefs and devoted his to life to public service.  He never received much thanks for that passion.  Nervous breakdown?   I doubt it.  He has much to offer and we have lost a patriot from our political system.  He is smart and will expend his energy in many other areas I am sure.  We should thank him for his service and hope he will re-enter poltical life on some level even as a  consultant.

If anyone should be having a nervous breakdown, it should be Tom Buchanan who can't come up from under.

a posting of a local law to allow for the hiring of out of town residents for confidential secretary and an attorney

there are not 2 people out of 29000ish who could do the work or are they just too smart to take the job


on another note
nothing like posting the local law announcement before the public hearing and the adoption

So tell those of us who snuck away from our nervous breakdowns who was hired for these positions and why?

Just know that the job isn't 'permanent'.
Your head could roll at any time.
