Boy, the last thing we need is more political B.S. These days our lives are filled with it. Turn on the T.V., read in the newspapers and the Internet, open up your mailbox…
I received the newest mailing from the Dem candidates that probably cost them a few thousand $ from their lobbyists/corporate donations. They may think it was money well spent to have it show up in every HH voter’s mailbox.
NOTHING will ever be worth more in a political campaign than real life volunteer investment in the town in which you are living in and trying to run in. That shows your true investment in where you live. Can’t be bothered? Don’t “have the time”? Pleaaaase, I don’t want to hear it. Then you are just a “tourist” here in HH, not a resident.
I read through their piece several times and not once did I see anything that mentioned either’s candidate volunteer activity that they have personally participated in HH. If they loved their community so much and have a personal investment in it they would have showed that long ago by investing their time here in town, like the candidates from the other party did way before they were ever elected or even considered running for political office. That’s how many people here in town knew about them. From seeing their faces at town-related activities. Investing their time for our town’s future.
Nor did I read about their “plans”in their mailing. Not a single sentence. And do you know why? They have none.
I did read about DiNanno’s “30 years in an urban school district” (they call it an Abbott district and the same one that Introna works in and is draining $$ from HH residents and other suburban taxpayers from their hard earned paychecks). Can we say Council hypocrisy? Voting against a struggling school budget while the one that is funding your paycheck has so much taxpayer money they can fill the classrooms with new equipment and build new schools? Gosh, and one wonders why Mr. DiNanno doesn’t mention the name of the school district in the literature. Maybe because of the Introna/Hudson County/Abbott connection?
“Master plan” and “aggessive action”. Just political rhetoric. Why in God’s name would we elect inexperienced Council members that up are being placed on the ballot strictly for the Bergen/Hudson County political agenda?
Do you want HH’s future dictated by outsiders and their money? Vote for them and then watch your town’s future and your personal $$ taken away from HH’s control.
