Valley Stream Election

[Valley Stream]

I wonder who will oppose the UCP this year. After the 08 election i think others may be afraid to even try to oppose them.

[Unregistered11111111]

who is even running for UCP?

[DEMS Group]

For $15000 they bought the D line from Jay Jacobs and Thom Gary.

[are there any dems]

Besides the two trustees i dont think any dems exist in valley stream that are worthy to run

[Valley Stream Dem]

Rumor has it that Dermond Thomas will announce he is running

[Unregisteredchris]

Rumor has it that Dermond Thomas will announce he is running

Is this the same guy who got 37% of the vote in his failed attempt for Assembly or is it the guy who just moved to Valley Stream 2 years ago who thinks he knows whats best for us?? Which one is it?

[Thurman Thomas]

My second cousin is running....OMG!

[Jokester1231231231]

Thomas and every valley stream democrat is a joke it is a party of traitors with the leader Bendeict Bastardi

[Nina News]

Will her Deputy Prosecuting job run out in march? Maybe she will run 4 something.

[Eggs Benedict bastardi]

Nina, my wife and my leader, will not run, as per Tom Gary.

[who knows what could be]

is this the Fare way? maybe some past names

[UnregisteredHOUSEWIFE]

Jim Darcy For Mayor He Is Honest And Cares About Valley Stream, Otherwise Is Will Be Business As Usual.

[Unregisteredin11565]

Interesting!

[Money situation]

Theres no way the board approves that it would raise our taxes if we not want to give up jobs and then why would darcy want to even be mayor again doesnt he have enough pull with the town already

[ValleyStreamer]

Fare as Mayor, Antun as Village Clerk and have Dermond Thomas fill the vacant trustee position.

[Unregistered dem]

What does a guy who just moved to VS know about the Village?

[VSOUTSIDERSSSS]

Omg Its Getting Juicy Here In Vallehy Stream New Rumors Flying Out Of The Dems Club House Chris Bastardi And David Sabitino Getting Together Nina And Some Guy Who Ran For Assembly Meeting At The Cappri In West Hempstead Whats Next

[Unregistered75643]

[who??????]

I heard of the traitors but who the hell is Dave Sabatino another know nothing demorat

[SAbitino DIno]

They are Billy B Dems.

[Unregistereeed]

They are Billy B Dems.

He is a 24 yr old unemployed, live at home kid!!

[Nina B and the B's]

If Nina gets a few Dems to invest a few bux, maybe she can be part of the Village Atty team.

Team Nina!

[May Tag]

If Nina gets a few Dems to invest a few bux, maybe she can be part of the Village Atty team.

Team Nina!

I thought she already worked there. And get her job from the local republican's.

[not a shot in hell]

Do you really think Nina will ever work in Valley Stream again after this job ends? No way the republicans agree to the hire of her

[sincere]

i think nina bastardi and all her croanies are out for themselves, not anything more than that. just look how she used the republican party to get ahead. she is not to be trusted. i would never vote for her or support anyone who is affiliated with her. Do you even know what that word means nina?

Ed Fare is running for Mayor in Valley Stream. I saw him at the RR station the other morning. He is 100% engaged

[pvt cit]

John DeGrace is a proven leader and has shown this throughout his many years as leader. He has many soldiers behind him, and he has major efffective people under him. He also has a solid base countywide.
Jim Darcy is self destructing by trying to take on John DeGrace. Ed Fare will be running for mayor.

[Down On The Valley]

The relative calm of the Cahill era is over. The only proven trustee that could fill Ed's shoes is Joann and it seems that she is not interested in the job beyond the current term. Since Antun has been disregarded by the UCP the only viable choice is Darcy for all the right reasons. Unfortunately the right reasons are not the choice of the UCP. My Fare Puppet and theTuff show. Let's close the curtain before the show opens.

I visited the Village's website to look at some of the meetings' minutes. Meeting after meeting, year after year, nobody casts a dissenting vote. It's like we're being ruled by a military junta.

It's time to vote outside the box.

[Unregistereddemrep]

He is a one issue candidate. He only cares about what goes on in his little Gibson area. Has nothing to offer the rest of us.

[Fare is Fair]

The FIre Department will weaken his slate. Fare is no pal of the FIre Dept.

[not ed c]

i hope everyone who votes for jimmy darcy understand he is not ed cahil he will not be the same man

[no strings attached]

The current economic enviroment calls for a man with Darcy's experience. He has proven success at different levels of local government. Ed Cahill was effective in his quiet way. Jim will be just as effective in his own way. We should not be looking for a carbon copy of Ed. However we do want someone with the same integrity, abilty and concern to the right thing for the residents of VS. Jim Darcy is that man.

[pvt cit]

Darcy has to take some responsibility for the Animal shelter. He is our councilman. I understand he has friends at the animal shelter and plans on giving them patronage jobs in Valley Stream.
I am afraid Darcy is not the right person, he has cut too many deals in the past, and will take advantage.

[Re Ed Fare]

Ok so he makes big money. Hes earned it. But: he's a stiff and a half and having Vinny Grasso on the ticket (Bridge Authority and Trustee double dipper), hes no good too.

Dermond Thomas ran against Brian Curran. His next job will be to knock someone out.

Fare's ticket is weak and dangerous. Support anyone else.

BTW-Grasso has been totally useless, clueless and a puppet of the dumb Dems.

[Down On The Valley]

You read these boards long enough and it becomes painfully obvious a lot of people who post here have a vested interest in the outcomes of elections.

I just wanna park my car.

Some people don't want to have to pay flood insurance for living somewhere where history shows there's never been a flood.

We're not asking a whole lot and we're getting zero reception on Central Avenue frequency.

It's long overdue that the people of Valley Stream take their village back from the $20K a year patronage piggies.

Darcy vs. Fare? I'm votin' Margolin.

Someone who'll do something for someone is a step in the right direction.

[walk your lazy ass]

Boo hoo, you have to walk a few parking spaces to catch the train. Would you like your ass wiped as well??

[Down On The Valley]

Some of us actually had the gumption to get ourselves *REAL* jobs in the city, making real money.

Our village shouldn't be held hostage by loafers living in mommy's basement, picking up trash in the park, and collecting $20K of our tax money annually.

Is it asking too much to have sufficient parking space so we can actually go make that money, bring it back to the village, so the village can take it and eyedropper it out to the fatsos in the orange t-shirts?

:)

Typical liberal elitist. Who gives a shit you have to walk a little. Your fat ass could use the exercise.

[Down In The Valley]

You wanna see fat check out the guys in the orange t-shirts.

I run three miles a day on the treadmill. So I ain't fat.

Furthermore, I'm a conservative. Wrong again.

Like Ed Fare you don't commute, so you don't care. You should have a little consideration for the people who pay your salary, as miniscule as it is.

[Young VS]

Seems like the conversation has gone off on a tangent. To bring it back to the Village Election:

I support the United Community Party Ticket.

Jim Darcy is a great guy, but I worry he is too much a part of the old mentality of maintaining the status quo here in Valley Stream. Let me know if I am wrong.

As for Joe Margolin (excuse me if I spelled his name wrong) - seems to be an intelligent, well spoken and focused individual but he only has one concern - preserving the value of his and his daughter's home. I have no problem with that and support the cause to have the flood maps revised, but Valley Stream needs someone who is looking at the big picture and unfortunately Joe Margolin is not.

Great, great post. Finally something with some substance. Gives me hope for the next generation. And I agree 100%. If Jim Darcy was the way forward, why did he leave being Mayor to be an Assemblyman? Why did he leave that to be a Councilman?

The achievements he lists on his FB page are literally 15 YEARS OLD.

Let's look forward - now is not the time to try to roll back the progress of the Cahill years.

[Nothing Will Change]

Darcy or Fare will just be the same ole same ole.

It's obvious they and their supporters are completely dismissive of the complaints of average taxpayers.

All that matters to them is THEM.

Despite what many people believe, we have Village officials and workers that are looking out for the communities best interest. I am not saying they get it right every time, who does? Over the decades have our elected officials missed opportunities, led us astray, made mistakes that impacted our community, of course. They have also worked to establish or keep a lot of things we love about our community.

Regardless of what you think each candidate will or will not bring, if more people on both sides of an issue got involved and active then the Mayor, Trustees, Supervisors, etc would have to be more attentive, cooperative and transparent. When very few people show up to Village Board meetings for years or show little to no interest in what is going on then what else do you expect to happen?

You make some good points.

I disagree though, about the dedicated public servants.

You can see from the reactions here that anything that doesn't affect them is "unimportant" and "stupid."

They don''t live in Gibson, so who cares?

They have reserved parking spaces, so who cares about commuters?

They collect two paychecks from the same taxpayers, so who cares?

The median family income in Valley Stream is approximately $70K. Divided by 52 weeks a year is about $1350 a week, which comes out to roughly $34 an hour.

Despite what the orange t-shirted louts will say, it is not a 1-2 minute walk to the train station from the pool parking lot, or some of the other distant lots. 5-10 minutes is more like it. Couple that with a missed train and an additional 30 minute wait for the next one, and we're talking 45 minutes to an hour added to an already unhappy commute.

That's about $34 in lost work time each time someone can't find a parking spot, which is probably more than the orange t-shirted louts make in a day.

But since it doesn't affect *THEM*, it's stupid and unimportant.

They roll out of bed in mommy's basement, go upstairs where mommy has a plate of bacon and eggs waiting for them, grab the first beer of the day while walking out the door, and saunter over to Hendrickson Park for an exhausting day of picking up a few pieces of trash.

So to preserve their leisurely way of life they have to sell parking spaces to non-residents for hundreds of dollars, and deny parking spaces to taxpaying residents. Meanwhile, the sticker that taxpaying residents pay $40 for is useless.

But of course, my concerns are stupid and unimportant. Making sure the Ole Double Dipper keeps his beak wet is clearly Valley Stream's most pressing issue.

[FARE]

Ed Fare is Valley Stream choice for mayor and he will be a good one Darcy has decided not to run and it looks like the race is Fare to win

... there was a sighting of the ole Double Dipper himself Saturday at King Kullen.

He was surrounded by an adoring throng of .... none.

This is the problem with the junta that meets regularly at the American Legion Hall. They think they are Valley Stream itself.

Valley Stream's choice will be made at the ballot box.

We use machines shows how aware you are on issues. Margolin is a one issue candidate nothing more

... that whatever issues you have are also important to Unfair xDon't-Care Wanna-Be Mayor Ed Fare.

If your issue don't put any more money in his pocket... save your breath.

[Down On The Valley]

Just curious as to what is the vast and awe-inspiring range of issues Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare has?

The way I see it he's a two issue candidate:
x
Admittedly, but your standard that gives him twice as many issues as Margolin, but I fail to see the benefits for the people of Valley Stream.

[Ed's Slary]

Looks like Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare has the s editing out anything specific about his double dippin'.

Like I said, a junta.

[Dear Moderator]

Stop elininating stuff on behalf of Ed Fare. Keep it a Fare race.

[Down On The Valley]

What is his main salary in the school system?

Last time I looked at the SeeThroughNewYork website his salary there was over $120K.

But that wasn't enough so he had to get a second village paycheck as a Trustee.

[Down On The Valley]

Even though $120k is already nearly twice the median income of the average VS resident.

[Up Your Valley]

Not only has Ed Fare committed the unmitigated sin of working two jobs (What's he doing, trying to show us up!!)

What many people don't know about Ed Fare is that he was also a Nazi Concentration Camp guard during World War II. Aaaaaaand he hates puppies. He kicks them. Worse than that, it has been reported that he kicks puppies. Puppies with AIDS. Puppies with AIDS and no parents. And these are teh cutest little snuggliest puppies.

What kind of monster kicks cute, snuggly, orphan puppies with AIDS? The kind of monster who was a Nazi Death Camp guard during WWII!!!!

Oh, and he works two jobs.

Let me take it all slow like so you can follow.

1. You said Ed Fare was a Double-Dipper
2. The post said he worked two jobs
3. Your said working two jobs wasn't double dipping
4. The post asked how Ed Fare was a double dipper
5. You said he gets two paychecks from village taxpayers
6. It was demonstrated that one of those paychecks was for one job and the other was for a second, separate job.
7. You then started calling names.

See, in logic that's called an ad hominem attack. It is a fact avoidance technique.

As you know, everyone has always said that your problem is that you think you're the smartest guy in the room. You're not.

Double dippin' is a time-honored fundamental NO-NO in politics, and you clearly haven't a notion of what it is. Frankly, such base ignorance shouldn't be flaunted on a political forum.

Ed Fare has two jobs - one as a teacher and one as a Trustee. You said yourself having two jobs isn't double dipping.

Then Google and find out what "Double Dipping" is.

Maybe as mayor he'll move on to triple dipping? Why the heck not? As long as a legion of idiocy lines up behind him he can do anything.

I somehow suspect this particular specimen of monumental ignorance is the product of Fare's classroom "skills".

Speaking of which, maybe that should be a consideration here. Let's see how Fare's students stack up against students of other teachers in the district. Break out the test scores and let's have a look.

... you finally cracked a book and maybe tried to learn something. Alas, it was all for nought, because you're still wrong. Double Dippin' is legal in Connecticut, Illinois, New Jersey and New York.

In the act of fervently processing new data, possibly for the first time in many years, your pea brain apparently got overloaded and confused double dippin' with holding two different elected offices at the same time. The fact that I'm not from Gibson also seems to have been pushed off of your internal hard drive.

Double Dippin' has legal and political definitions and implications. Obviously Unfair Double Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare is not doing anything illegal. Which is why no one has accused him of doing anything illegal. He is, however, doing something that raises ethical questions, something that elected officials should avoid at all costs for the sake of appearances.

But, like a pig rolling around in slop, Unfair Double Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare just wallows in his double dipped mud money.

Meanwhile, do some more reading and come back when maybe you have a GED or something. I'm sure Ed Fare appreciates you stopping your usual daily activities, which I guess include removing temporal lobe tumors and calculating rocket launch trajectories, and coming onto this forum to defend him.

However, I don't think Unfair Double Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare, would appreciate you insulting potentional voters and their problems, by entire regions, in his name. It sorta comes out like "Ed Fare says Gibson slime go pay your flood insurace."

Then again, since the problem doesn't affect him, that probably exactly how he feels.

However, I don't think Unfair Double Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare, would appreciate you insulting potentional voters and their problems, by entire regions, in his name. It sorta comes out like "Ed Fare says Gibson slime go pay your flood insurace."

Then again, since the problem doesn't affect him, that probably exactly how he feels.

PWNED

[Missed the Point]

Fare doesnt have the support of the Fire Department. Start campaigning with that. This is a wide open race.

[23455432]

... you finally cracked a book and maybe tried to learn something. Alas, it was all for nought, because you're still wrong. Double Dippin' is legal in Connecticut, Illinois, New Jersey and New York.

In the act of fervently processing new data, possibly for the first time in many years, your pea brain apparently got overloaded and confused double dippin' with holding two different elected offices at the same time. The fact that I'm not from Gibson also seems to have been pushed off of your internal hard drive.

Double Dippin' has legal and political definitions and implications. Obviously Unfair Double Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare is not doing anything illegal. Which is why no one has accused him of doing anything illegal. He is, however, doing something that raises ethical questions, something that elected officials should avoid at all costs for the sake of appearances.

Now that you let us know that you are officially off your meds, it all makes sense now. With your rookie logic, a retired person or anyone that works in government cant run for office. If you took your meds and picked up a book you would know that double dipping is getting paid twice for the same hours worked.
My suggestion is that you take ALL of your meds. You seen a bit touched.

[Why not?]

Could you explain a little more please? Why doesn't he have the support of the VSFD?

[Darcy will Help Gibson]

behind the scenes.

[Wasn't VSFD Supporting]

I remember the Tony I supporters accusing the VSFD of thuggery around Tony's campaign HQs. IIRC it had something to do with Tony I opposing a property tax break incentive for VS volunteer firefighters.

What's happened since then? Did Ed Fare promise the FF's something and then renege on the deal? Did Fare sic the FF's on Tony's campaign HQ? Were they doing Fare's dirt3Qy work?

Since you're obviously "in the know," what's Ole Double-Dippin' Unfair I-Don''t-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare's plan to help the homeowners of Gibson?

To help the commuters at the train station?

Oh wait, I already know the answer from his illustrious Trustee career.

Margolin has down nothing to get his name out no way he beats Fare

[Single Issue Candidate?]

So far I've seen at least one issue Margolin is motivated about.

Fare's supporters can't even cite one issue their boy is going to address.

Kind of ironic dismissing the opponent as a "single issue candidate" when you don't even have a single issue.

I'm not a newbie, a life-long village resident.

What's Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare's one issue? I saw his literature laying all over the floor Friday in the LIRR waiting room. Didn't see a single issue. It just said basically "more of the same."

Which is good for the Ole Double Dipper. He'll keep his money rollin' in. What about everyone else?

Why doesn't the VSFD support him? I just got my VSFD donation envelope in the mail. It'd be interesting how much, if anything, the Ole Double Dipper contributes. Considering he's collecting two paychecks from the taxpayers of Valley Stream, it'd be interesting to see how civic minded he really is when it comes to giving back.

How about it Ed? Let's see the cancelled checks!

I remember well the night John DeGrace was beaten.

You have you own little club. The Village does special favors for its "friends". Favors those residents who "don't know someone in the Village" have to pay for themselves.

You cut down trees for your friends, pave their sidewalks, fix their curbs. Then when the neighbor wants it done too, the neighbor is given some nonsense excuse and told to do it himself/herself, and if he or she doesn't the Village will do it and bill them.

You think all the rest of us in Valley Stream are stupid. You think we don't know your dirty little inside favoritism. The truth is we tolerate it up to a point. Then there's a breaking point.

DeGrace found out he passed the breaking point the hard way. He never saw it coming.

The breaking point has been passed again, and again this time the clueless dolts in the Village haven't got a clue.

Oh, and before you bother... "Awwwww, poor baby."

Lol! The end is coming soon. May as well take down Ole Double-Dippin' Unfair I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare's reserved parking signs.

[Oh, and...]

You really should tell those you do these special favors for not to brag about them.

They boast to all the other neighbors "I got it done because I know someone in the Village."

"Hey, I to pay for it myself!"

"Ha! Too bad you don't know someone in the Village too."

.... ha, the end is near for you poor babies.

Has Fare ever held a job in the private sector?

Or has he made dipping into the public troth a lifetime career?

Well, after a million posts, I know that Ed Fare is a Teacher.

But he knew that his opposition, Mike Locassio was a writer??? Yeah, can you believe it. He's writing a book, some of the chapters are called:

Getting Older
Nightmare at KFC
I live Here
Technology, What would we do without it
To SUV or Not to SUV
A Good Day for a Mow
Growing Up Italian

Very interesting reading, even if the prose is a bit, well, leaden. Some of the subject matter is a bit, um, dodgy not to mention some of teh accompanying photos. Really odd if you consider that you might want women, black people or anyone who's not a middle aged Italian guy to vote for you....If you know what I mean.

Just cause a lot of the nastiness from Margolin, Crupi and Locasio has gone un-addressed means that it will forever......

But Mr. Margolin and Ms. Crupi shouldn't feel ignored. Their turn is coming.

[English Lit]

So, let's get started class. Here is the first installment of the writings of candidate Michael LoCascio. This will give you a little insight into how he thinks and how he might govern the village if elected.

Discussion questions for the class follow:

"Nightmare at KFC
By
Michael LoCascio

Can you just give me order please?

Well let me start by saying that the staff that works at Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC for short) couldn’t make a pimple on a Wal-Mart workers ass. I never have seen anybody so stupid as they are. What confuses me a little, just a little, is that no matter what KFC you go to, at least in the New York area, they make the same friggin' mistakes. For example, you ask for a 2 piece white meal, they give you a 3 piece dark, no meal just chicken. You might be saying, “…well that’s not too bad.”

Are you fuckin’ kidding?

Now they have a third type of chicken, the “roasted” chicken to really fuck things up. There are three types of chicken recipes, the first is Colonel Harland Sanders’ “Original Recipe”, and the second is the “Extra Crispy” recipe, now the third, the new “Grilled Chicken Recipe.” You have to remember now, when you are at a KFC you are dealing with stupidity in its pure form. Now with a third type of chicken recipe, we can extrapolate that their infantile brains will expotentiously triple the mistakes they will make starting with how they greet you when you use the drive in window.

(Let me take this opportunity to ask, who the fuck is Colonel Sanders? Which army was he a part of? None! He was given the title by the State of Kentucky for his contribution to the business community. Yes, we are now able to identify who are some of the most stupid people on earth. He should have been made a General for that contribution to society.)

Most are young kids who most likely had to take stupid pills during training at the Institute of Chicken Plucking in Butt Fuck, Kentucky. They usually begin by speaking into a microphone that is situated behind their ear. Now, not able to hear what they are saying you become a parrot and repeat what they are saying while you don’t know what the hell they are talking about.

Confusing, wait it gets better. God forbid if you had a coupon. After repeating yourself five times you are told to come to the window. You really didn’t hear that, it’s just a habit and truthfully the only way out of Stupidville. Here is the fun part, if the bill comes to let us say $14.14, give them a $20 dollar bill and a quarter and watch their expression. Doo! Duh! Easy change would be 11 cents plus 6 dollars. The KFC Institute didn’t get to that scenario at training. What has happened to me several times is that I get back more money than I gave them. Normally, I would always give the money back.

Fuck them! I’m telling you, try it. Now let’s say you finish paying and they actually give you your order. You better look and check your order, it most likely the wrong stuff and you need to do the whole process over again.

(True story, my wife went to KFC for Chicken nuggets, they told her that it was a five minute wait. Twenty five minutes later she was still there. Anywhere else she would have left, but at KFC you pay before you get the order. I guess it’s the cliental that usually patronizes KFC that causes the suspicions of the management to be diligent to their customers)"

Get all that? Ok, let's explore.

First question - Who are the "cliental that patronizes KFC"? Mr. LoCascio seems to think they can't be counted on to pay their bill. Is that something he learned as a police officer in NYC?

Second Question - With the obvious low regard Mr. LoCascio has for low-wage workers, how will he deal with the workers and residents in the village who don't benefit from a hefty NYC police salary? Could they "Make a pimple on a Wal-Mart worker's ass?" or "Do they have infantile brains," or "do they possess stupidity in the pure form?"

Third Question - Will Ms. Crupi and Mr. Margolin condemn these extremely offensive characterizations? Or do they share them?

[Down On]

Sorry for the delay in replying. The "neutral" admin banned my IP address. This is my friend's, which I'm sure Unfare Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare will have banned as well. And this post will be deleted as well.

The Valley Stream junta is alive and well I see.

Nonetheless, you have to fabricate material whereas we do not. Fare is a double dipper. He never cast a dissenting vote as a trustee. The record speaks for itself.

You wanna take on the Catholics in Valley Stream in Ed Fare's name? Please do! LOL! I want you to. The Knights of Columbus have contributed more to this community than the Ole Double Dipper ever has.

Since this is probably my last post, and it will be deleted by the "neutral" admin on the Double-Dipper's orders, I think your fabrications are quite weak. Quotes from a book LoCascio is still writing? Uh huh, that's somehow possible?

Not even worth a lol.

The end is near. DeGrace didn't see it coming, neither does the Double Dipper. It's gonna be ugly.

Well, he's been serializing it on his Facebook Page. Now we'll serialize it here. Are you curious for Chapter 2? Next up is going to be To SUV or not to SUV. The ladies should like that chapter. After that, Good Day for a mow. His neighbors will like that. But he'll get a chance to deny that he wrote it when the papers call.....

And just for the record, spoke with 3 members of the Father Carrol chapter and they said there was no endorsement of LoCascio. So, no, not looking to take on the Catholics - just the flushing out the liars.

[UnregisteredWhyMoreLies?]

Why more lies?

Anyone can go on-line and read the Father Carroll chapter's bulletin and read the endorsement for themselves.

You didn't talk to anyone, you're lying.

www.frcarroll4566-kofc.org/padre/newsletters/2011-02_Padre_Feb.PDF

Here's the problem: You can't believe the truth about Unfare Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare, so you assume the truth must be a lie. You didn't even know what double-dippin' was until you were clued in.

So now you're fabricating material in response to what you believe to be fabrications. Only problem is... we're telling the truth. :)

[Stephen King]

Great segue into the next chapter. Thanks for that.

So Michael LoCascio was endorsed by a newsletter he edits? Why weren't the other candidates invited for an endorsement interview? And funny, in his endorsement interview with the Herald, he didn't mention that he was running to bring pro-life activism to the Village Board. But that anti-chioce activism may explain his attitude towards women displayed in the next chapter.

Again, we'll put this out there, then follow up with some questions.

"To SUV or Not to SUV
By
Michael LoCascio

Ever really look around on the road while you are driving? Wherever you look there is another SUV. For those of you from Buttpuke, Iowa, an SUV is a “Sports Utility Vehicle.” Now, look at the drivers.

Yep, you see it, little runts and c**nts who could not drive a Volks Wagon.

Ever ask a guy why he bought one for his wife? Same answer, “I want her to be safe.” Yea, bullshit! It’s a new toy, a status symbol the feeling to keep up with the Jones. Yes, you guys know who you are. Stupid fucks.

Let me give you my idea for the SUV. First, to own one, you must be over 4’11” tall. Secondly, you should be required to actually use the rear hatch at least once in the life of the vehicle. Thirdly, you should be required to have a special license to drive one.

Let me address each point. My first requirement is to be at least 4’11” tall. It seems that the largest of SUVs like the Lincoln Navigator or the Toyota “too big for the road” are always being driven by left over munchkins from the Wizard of Oz. These Lumpa Lumpas can even see over the steering wheel let alone back up in a parking lot. Hey, get a Razor Wagon.

Second, most owners don’t ever use the vehicle for what it was designed for. You know, the vehicle manufacturers are not stupid, they build these vehicles anyway knowing that they will be never used for their actual purpose or purposes. I know someone who didn’t even know that the back could open. Asked why she bought one, she said “because.” Great answer.

Why are you so stupid? Because! Ass hole!

Third, on a more serious note, yes there should be a special license, even for someone who drives a truck for a living. Yes you too, the “ice road truckers.” It seems that whenever someone gets behind the wheel of an SUV, they become invincible. In rain, speed as usual. In snow, hey the advertisements say you can go through anything, so let’s speed. An SUV requires a little more attention to driving than that of an ordinary sedan or coup. A road test as well as a separate license or add on to a license (i.e motorcycle license) should be required. This simple idea will eliminate most of the idiots behind the wheel of an SUV.

Please don’t get me wrong, the SUV has its purpose and can be very handy if you have to move a piano. People, if you don’t need one, don’t buy one. They are shit on gas, a road hazard, and expensive to keep. It was so funny when gasoline was over $4.00 a gallon how the SUV became the enemy. Oh did I laugh every time I filled up and watched the SUV owners spend 80 to 90 dollars to fill their tank.

Do your country and Heir Obama a favor, get a Smart Car."

Well, that sure was an earful!!

Question 1 - Does Mr. LoCascio really think all women are C**TS? Or just the ones who drive SUVs? Because women who drive SUVs make up an awful big bunch of voters in Valley Stream. Probably more than Grand Knights.

Question 2 - Does Mr. LoCascio thin all women are "Stupid A**holes"? Or just the ones who drive SUVs? I think his running mate, Ms. Crupi drives an SUV. Does he think she is a stupid c**t?

Question 3 - Is Mr. LoCascio's attitude towards President Obama perhaps related to his attitude towards "the clientel at KFC"? There seems to be a pattern emerging....

Question 4 - Will Ms. Crupi and Mr. Margolin condemn Mr. LoCascio's vile characterizations of women? Do they share his view? And have they endorsed his anti-choice platform that he hopes to bring to Village Hall, even though that, like FEMA, is a federal issue?

Question 5 - Has Mr. Margolin, Ms. Crupi, and Mr. LoCascio ever taken a High School civics course? Do they know the difference between the Federal Government and local government? Separation of powers?

Who knows, maybe like Mr. LoCascio says, they are just 3 stupid C**TS.

[Unregistered1111]

LOL...this man is running for public office?? of any kind??? where are these writings coming from....and when are you going to put up the next chapter, I can't wait!

[Down On The Valley]

What this all comes down to is Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare's supporters fighting fact with fiction.

For instance, when presented irrefutable evidence of the KOC's endorsement of LoCascio, after they falsely insisted the KOC didn't endorse LoCascio, they ran away and returned with some fictional creative writing they wrote up themselves.

It's a no-brainer that a Past Grand Knight of the Knights of Columbus would be pro-life. Anyone with even a passing familiarity with the KOC would know that.

But what is interesting is that Fare seems to be an abortionist, at least according to this supporter. Very interesting. I'm sure Valley Stream's Catholics would be interested in that.

Meanwhile, read the Herald's profile of Grasso. He correctly points out there is a lot of open land near the train station to make parking spaces. Fine.

But who does he want to create parking for? NON-RESIDENTS! "It's a money-maker for the Village," he says.

Hey Dopey, what about the taxpayers of your town Village? There's not enough parking spaces for them as it is.

But what's more important is more revenue for the Village. After all, someone's got to pay for Fare's two paychecks.

[Jimmy Breslin]

Welcome back class! Back by popular demand, Chapter 3 in Michael Locasio's book about how he's the smartest guy in the world and everyone else is just a schmuck. Today's chapter takes aim at his neighbors on Munro Blvd, Code Enforcement in the Village, "Latin American Men" (why does he have such a problem with people who look different?), or as he calls them "noisy taco eating garden people"

If you think we're writing this, I suggest you go to Michael LoCascio on Facebook and look in his Notes section. Heres the link: http://www.facebook.com/michael.locascio

Anyway, let's continue with the story.


"It's a Good Day for a Mow
by
Michael LoCascio

There is one friggin’ thing that annoys the shit out of me, is the sound of a lawn mower and blower. You people who live in the city, the closest thing you have to grass is the moss under yourr asses. You are also lucky that you don’t have a mower or blower going off every minute.

Here on Long Island, I guess many other suburban areas (I not too sure about cities unless you live near a park) we have the Lawn Keeper. They are usually hard working “Latin American” men who seem to slave everyday in the heat, rain and cold to keep everyone’s lawn neat and trim.

Now that the accolades are mentioned, I will like to address these fuckin’ noisy bastards. It starts here at about 7:59 am when the first mower begins to whine. They have to wait to 8:00 am to start but I think these sons of bitches start a minute early just to say they could. Then all day long, from east to west from north to south you hear the whine of the mower followed by the dreaded blower. The guy who invented the portable blower for gardeners should drop dead; the prick! As I am writing this, there is one guy blowing cut grass and weed into the street just about 100 feet from my house.

Where are the code enforcers when you need them? (Eating donuts?) You can’t relax, meditate or get any peace all day long with those noisy taco eating garden people running around all day long.

What can we do? I can’t do my own gardening because of allergies. Too bad for me; so all I could do is bitch. You know, I never saw one of these Latin guys sneeze, funny ain’t it? And then there is the Grass-Mobile.” Ever get stuck behind one? Grass flying out of the back, fumes from a smoking engine, no license plate on the trailer, men hanging onto the sides like firemen going to a supermarket. I hate them. Not personally, but them as an industry.

When you bring up a peeve, you either live with it or have some kind of solution. Well here goes. Concrete! Green Concrete! Yes my friends (please don’t equate me with John McCain) concrete, cement or whatever you want to call it. Just think of the industry and job creation that will follow. (Call Obama)

First, all out of work masons will have something to do besides looking at driveways. (An aside, ever speak to a private mason; they will point out all the stoops and driveways they worked on.) The local hardware store will become busy again mixing shades of green paint.

You just could see a Hispanic neighborhood, day glow green paint.

Bring your sunglasses. We will save a lot of gasoline and in some cases electricity powering the mowers and blowers; and don’t forget the weed whackers. The only drawbacks are cracks. After a few years and depending on who is your concrete lawn guy, a crack may appear. With cracks come the weeds and with weeds the weed whacker. The cycle starts again. The people who refused to give there concrete lawn a fresh coat of green pain (another aside, just think you can color coordinate with every season) will cause grass growth and with grass, the Lawn Guys are back in business.

Interesting, that aside, yellow in the spring, green in the summer, orange in the fall and brown in the winter. Hey, what about white? Everywhere can be a white Christmas,(call Bing) Florida, the Islands, wait the lawn guys are there. The lawn guys could become the paint guys. As long as they don’t use leaded paint; remember the “PICA” balloon? One advantage is that your dog and cat could piss anywhere and with the quick spray of the hose, whoosh, down the sewer. No smell, you can use CN or Mr. Clean. While you’re at it, you can wash your car and keep your concrete lawn clean at the same time.

There is no end to the advantages. No more lawn chairs, just park benches. You can entertain on your front concrete lawn. Starting to sound familiar? City dwellers, especially in the outer boroughs always had a “gate” to hang out in; a small concrete lawn with cracks, and basil growing from the broken parts. Holy crap, the suburbs become the city of old. Will the fun and good times come back?"

Wow. Pulitzer Prize, anyone? Let's get to the questions.

Question 1 - Does Mr. LoCascio believe all Hispanic people are, "noisy taco eating garden people?"

Question 2 - Does Mr. LoCascio believe that all Code Enforcement people are out eating donuts, instead of doing their jobs? Kind of a strange criticism coming from an NYC cop, no?

Question 3 - Does Ms. Crupi and Mr. Margolin share Mr. LoCascio's views on Hispanic men, and Village Code Enforcement?

Well class, that's all for Mr. LoCascio. But don't worry. Starting next week we will begin our series on Ms. Crupi. But in summary, if you happen to see Mr. LoCascio campaigning this weekend, ask him the following questions:

1. Did you write that crazy shit that was posted online?
2. Do you have a problem with black people, hispanic people, women, village workers, low-wage workers and anyone who isn't an ignorant Italian baby-boomer?
3. While on the NYPD, were there ever complaints made against you to the Civilian Complaint Review Board, and if so, what was teh disposition of those cases?
4. Why do you carry a gun on you all the time?
5. Where did you get your Bachelors degree? Was it at the phony, internet diploma mill called Trinity Southern University? Did you actually attend classes there? Here's the link to them:

2. Do you have a problem with black people, hispanic people, women, village workers, low-wage workers and anyone who isn't an ignorant Italian baby-boomer?
3. While on the NYPD, were there ever complaints made against you to the Civilian Complaint Review Board, and if so, what was teh disposition of those cases?
4. Why do you carry a gun on you all the time?
5. Where did you get your Bachelors degree? Was it at the phony, internet diploma mill called Trinity Southern University? Did you actually attend classes there? Here's the link to them:

Next week, we'll talk about Ms. Crupi.

WOW!!! This man CANNOT HOLD OFFICE. If true, this man needs to DROP OUT of the village race ASAP and an INVESTIGATION must take place by the local media. (NEWSDAY or VS Herald) And I want to know what his running mates think of this. Does CAROL CRUPI approve of this???

[UnregisteredOhBrother]

If true,

Uh, it's not.

As long as we're flinging around lies; Fare is a Klansman and Dermond Thomas is a Black Panther.

If true, they should both drop out the race immediately.

No wonder the machine keeps electing empty suits to office. They are a lot of impressionable imbeciles out there.

[Sinister Sam]

What's not true? He wrote the stuff - go to his FB page.

The "college" he attended? Go to the links.

That's called evidence.

[Down on the Valley]

I am a big enough man to admit when I am wrong.

After following the links provided, I cannot in good conscious support the ticket with Mr. LoCascio on it. It is clear he wrote what has been posted - along with a lot more.

I am not going to get into the other issues, but clearly there are some problems here. He did not inform the rest of the ticket before we got involved, and that is unfortunate.

I will not endorse the Fare ticket, but I am withdrawing my support of Margolin, LoCascio and Crupi.

I'm sitting this one out.

[UnregisteredVSVS]

You are a sick man!!! And you will be exposed as the nut you are!!!

[Down On The Valley]

Wowee.

What a weak attempt at a clone job.

I guess when all Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare has to offer is $20K a year and an orange t-shirt, he's bound to wind up with lamer henchmen than the Catwoman. LOL!

Anyone who has a Facebook account, which is practically everyone now, knows you can not link to the contents of someone's FB unless you are "friended" by that person. I followed the link to LoCascio's page and none of the content is visible. So you're lying. AGAIN!

You'd think after you'd been caught lying so many times you'd quit. But nooooooo!

Meanwhile, this was on Ed Fare's FB page: "I think Dermond Thomas is gonna make a swell lawn jockey for the Village Hall. LOL!"

How's that?

No, as far as I know Fare didn't really say that. See, we're not here to spread lies like his supporters are.

It is a lame attempt to divert attention from the real issue that Michael LoCascio does not have the right temperment to hold public office. Once again, it is rookie hour at the Michael LoCascio and Carol Crupi Camp. Lets wait and see what the newspapers think about this.

If I were you I'd worry more about Fare's Klan affiliations and Dermond Thomas' Black Panther membership.

Meanwhile, why does Grasso want to sell parking spaces to non-residents that are desperately needed by residents? Is he truly that clueless as to what the people of Valley Stream want?

[Relax Francis]

Listen pal, the UCP had literally 100 people walking the streets and knocking on doors today. We aren't worried one bit about what an angry, ignorant goomba, an angry, frustrated housefrau and a dithering confused retire think.

This internet stuff is just for shits and giggles.

The writings are true as is the rest. Let LoCascio deny it if he has the onions.

Once you are on his facebook page after following the link, everything is right there in the "Notes" section, which is found on the left side of the page underneath info and photos. Click on "notes" and said writings are there for all to see.

[Down On The Valley]

You're quite the savvy veteran campaigner, aintcha?

So far you've managed to alienate the entire Gibson community, Catholics, housewives, Italians, Knights of Columbus, pro-lifers, retirees, and I can't even remember who else.

Good thing this campaign only lasts one month. If you had until June you'd probably cause the Ole Double-Dipper to get lynched in Hendrickson Park. Yes, you morons did visit my house yesterday too. Gave you the thumbs up and told you everyone in the house is voting for Fare. Did the same thing to DeGrace. Lol!

And LoCascio's FB page isn't public. So following the links provided just lead to page that says you have to be one of LoCascio's FB friends. You didn't see crap, you made it all up.

And if you weren't worried you wouldn't be here fabricating lies. LOL!

Magolin victory is getting nearer. Finally some decent non-machine government in Valley Stream!

[UnregisteredLI]

To be fair, the only groups I think the previous posters took on were pro-lifers and the NYPD. I don't live in Valley Stream, but I don't see why someone from Gibson would be alienated by identifying a candidate as appealing only to his neighborhood.

And LoCascio's FB page isn't public. So following the links provided just lead to page that says you have to be one of LoCascio's FB friends. You didn't see crap, you made it all up.

If it isn't public, that's a recent development. When this first popped up, I checked it out of curiosity and they were on his facebook. He either wrote those things or got them from some website. Nevertheless, they were on his facebook. Don't lie about it.

You are a joke. We will all have a good laugh on March 15. Crupi has decided to start a civic group that's first order of business is to nominate a racist to run for office. What I read on LoCascio's facebook page is disgusting.

[UnregisteredLOLZ]

I suppose since the UCP is in a bind having nominated a Black Panther you have to fabricate allegations of racism.

I can smell the desperation from here. LOL!

[UnregisteredAlanKeyes]

All the folks on the west side need to find out is that Thomas sold his soul and jumped into bed with the Republican Party over in the American Legion Hall. That'll pretty much wipe him out faster than Alan Keyes.

Oh, and don't worry. WE'RE TELLING THEM.

Take away the west side, Gibson, gee, you guys are running out base support, aren't you?

You sound so desperate it is not even funny. You have a joke of a campaign. You won't get over 35% of the vote.

[UnregisteredMoi?]

You sound so desperate it is not even funny. You have a joke of a campaign. You won't get over 35% of the vote.

I sound desperate? Me? Really?

I can't possibly imagine why I should be desperate. I don't even know Margolin, Crupi, or LoCascio. I can't imagine why they'd be desperate either. They're running for what is essentially a low-paying part-time job with a goal of doing some community service.

Which is what the job should be. Candidates shouldn't have political machines run by Village employees behind them when they seek office. Village gov't should be a small and INDEPENDENT operation.

So why should I be desperate? In my whole life only the Donley gov't was run with an iota of independence from the usual American Legion junta. I am used to living in Argentina on Long Island.

No, no need to be desperate.

Maybe what you're sensing is me being "hopeful." Hopeful for some decent, independent, and fair government in this Village. I don't know if the Margolin ticket can deliver it, but I know for certain the Fare ticket has no intention of even trying.

As for desperation, I think it is you sir who fits that description. Perhaps terrified at the prospect of losing your $20K a year job and having to turn in your orange t-shirt.

[HypoCrupi]

So, after a thorough examination last week of Mr. LoCascio's adventures in literature and the insights that gave us into his social perspective, let's examine Ms. Crupi's.

Although she has not produced as great a body of work as Mr. LoCascio, she has been in the public eye enough to expose her as a complete fraud and hypocrite.

Let's hop into our way back time machine and take a look at Ms. Crupi's involvement in the public sphere and where she is today.

Ms. Crupi first got involved by opposing the development of the buildings on Gibson Blvd next to the train station. Ms. Crupi did not want those buildings to contain rental apartments because we suppose that might attract an "undesirable element." This has been a constant theme of Ms. Crupis - keeping out the undesirable element, as she referenced it again at her January 27 FEMA meeting. We don't know who that undesirable element is, but it may be, as Mr. LoCascio has said, "the clientel at KFC," "or taco eating gardeners."

So, because of Ms. Crupi's civic minded opposition to that development, we are now left with a string of abandoned stores. She blames this condition on the village.

Ms. Crupi then goes on to carry the flag in the forces of FEMA flood map fight, for the express purpose of "preserving the value of our homes and keeping out an undesirable element."

Now, we've already dealt with the undesirable element, but let's take a look at preserving the value of Ms. Crupi's home. What was it before the flood map? $0. What is it after the flood maps? $0.

Because she is a renter. You know, kind of like the undesirable element she wanted to keep out, only not as KFC eating or taco eating. Then again, she drives an SUV, so....

Let's recap for the class:

1. Ms. Crupi preserved vacant stores on Gibson by stonewalling the development of rental properties.
2. Ms. Crupi has dones her best to move Valley Stream forward by railing against "undesireable" taxpaying resident.
3. Ms. Crupi has NEVER paid property tax because she doesn't own property.
4. Ms. Crupi has NEVER paid flood insurance because she doesn't own a home.

Do the village of Valley Stream residents want such a hypocrite, who has never paid property tax and has stopped development making important decisions about their lives?

[DictionaryPlease]

Assuming everything you said is true, which based on the mountains of lies already put forth would be a monumental assumption, that doesn't quite fit the definition of "hypocrite."

As for limiting rentals and low-income residents, that's been a backbone issue of this Village for years. Or don't you remember (of course you don't, you're one of Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare's illiterate teen-aged students) the marches on Village Hall when Greco was looking to take federal HUD money?

Greco was also the kickback taking swine who allowed Serota to build that six story monstrosity on Sunrise Highway in violation of Village building codes. It was made abundantly clear to Greco not to seek another term.

The beauty of the Donley Administration was how he kicked out the entrenched machine Village employees. These bullies coerced Village workers into campaigning for DeGrace, contributing money to his campaign, etc.

Sadly, it didn't last long and they've been back in power ever since. No doubt our opponents on this board are typing away furiously on Village time when they're supposed to be working. Who is going to say anything? Their bosses? LOL! They're probably under direct orders to do so.

I just drove through the west end of town today and they're littering the area with Fare literature. Look at the people doing it. Take note of the faces. You've seen them around town. Working in the parks, picking up your trash.... they're all Village employees. Their interests DO NOT coincide with yours.

What Village residents who want to see a return... no, I wouldn't even say return...

If they finally want to see a decent independent Village government where the interests of the people, as opposed to the interests of the lying machine, are represented, they will turn out to vote against the American Legion Hall monsters.

It would be a rarity in this Village but it is entirely possible. C'mon People!

Let's Do It!

Knock it off $hithead! You are a total joke with your posts on here. I suggest a trip to your doc for your meds refill.

[Ahhh Memories]

Anyone can go read the Google news archives back to the early 1990s when Mayor Donley cleaned house of all of the machine bullies working in the Village. I don't have to mention the names, they're all there brandt tondi in the news stories.

The questions to ask yourselves are:

Trustees positions pay about $12,000 a year. The Mayor's spot pays about $15,000 a year. Why is all of this time and money being put into a campaign for positions that apparently have no financial return to them?

Why are all of the Village employees out campaigning for Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare?

As we learned from the court depositions in lawsuits following Donley's term, the American Legion Junta coerces village employees to contribute money and go out and campaign for their selected leaders. "If you don't kick back money to us and volunteer to work for our campaigns, your employment with the Village will be terminated. We gave you this job and we'll take this job away."

This is how the Village has been run for years, decades. The American Legion Junta, since they don't really care about truth or the well-being of the Village, launched expensive lawsuits that cost the Village a pretty penny. DeGrace, Fare, and Company do not really care about what damage they do to the Village. All they care about is maintaining their power.

So how will Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care-Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare repay all of the "favors" being done by these Village workers handing out his campaign literature? That's an easy one to answer; the favors are repaid with YOUR TAX DOLLARS!

I've lived in VS all my life and am quite familiar with how it works. That teenager out there today handing out leaflets for Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare, don't be surprised if you see him in a orange t-shirt this summer with a Village job being paid for by YOU.

If you want to stop paying for the money, prestige, and power enjoyed by these modern day Tammany Hall monsters right in our own Village, go out and vote. Grab your neighbor and go out and vote.

Don't be fooled by the lies. Don't be fooled by black Republicans who sold their souls hoping to be the next Alan Keyes or Michael Steele. Don't be fooled by money hungry candidates looking to sell our parking spaces to out of towners. Don't be fooled by Double Dippers looking for yet another taxpayer subsidized paycheck.

Traditionally, mayoral elections in Valley Stream have low voter turnouts. Get out and vote, and bring your neighbor along, and we can beat back these monsters again, like we did 20 years ago.

[UnregJustLook]

All you have to do is look at the mass mobilizations of the Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare people...

...compare that to the non-chalantness of the Margolin people.

Margolin and company are simply offering themselves to the community to do some service for the community, for a virtually non-existent salary that would barely cover personal expenses. They're not out there going crazy for the position. They've offered themselves to the people of Valley Stream, if you want to elect them, fine. If not, fine, less work for them, lol.

Just compare that the relative hysteria of the Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare camp. They're going nutso all over town. They are terrified of losing control over their little empire.

Their little empire is paid for by YOU. Time to stop payments. Get out and vote.

Margolin and company are doing more than "just offering themselves to the community"...which of them or their supporters is running around in the dark of night, trespassing and stealing lawn signs for the United Community Party. The red mini van complete with female thief has been sighted and once identity and license plate info are confirmed...we will see who is just nonchalantly doing a public service. Also...may of the jobs at Village Hall are Civil Service positions so a test was taken to get there and whoever the mayor is cannot just arbitrarily put new people in or throw people out.

[Unregisteredrolfz]

Civil Service in Valley Stream? lol, how much of a noob are you?

Technically and legally, yes. Pracitically and in real-life, lol, are you kidding?

And good luck convincing residents with the whining about the signs. There are years and years of stories about people who had the "wrong signs" on their lawns, i.e., signs not approved by the American Legion Junta. They got to have their trash thrown all across their lawns by the VS sanitationmen.

I don't even think the Margolin people have enough staff to go around taking down Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare signs. In fact, the only Fare sign I've even seen was on Merrick Rd. and I haven't seen a single Margolin sign or piece of literature. Margolin is obviously depending on a groundswell of resentment against the status quo.

It's been 20 years since the Donley revolution. Looks like the time has rolled around again for another revolution.

You speak of Donley as he was some great mayor. If he was so great, why did he last only one term and was included in a few legal cases that he lost. So stop trying to rewrite history. He was an awful mayor.

[Unregisteredonley]

Donley was a great mayor who stood up to the systemic corruption in the Village gov't. The first mayor who ever really did so.

He was the only person who was able to squeeze out a victory against the American Legion Junta, who in turn did everything they could to destroy him, costing the village plenty of money in carrying out their own personal vendetta.

They demonstrated at that time they do not care how much they damage the village gov't, or how much they cost the village taxpayer, as long as they got to maintain their stranglehold on power.

Donley went after the American Legion Republicans who were bullying and coercing village workers into supporting their candidates and contributing money to their campaigns.

No, it is you (who, btw, is clearly not a Dem) who needs to stop re-writing history.

And just for the record, why don't the American Legion Junta just call themselves "Republicans"? After all, we all know that's what they are.

He was the worst mayor in a long time. I am sure you forgot about the "mistake by the lake" didn't you ? You know, putting a hockey rink at Hendrickson Park lake. Real smart putting a hockey rink where condensation came about every night along that made it impossible to play on. Also, the lifeguards didn't know if there was a child drowning or just a wistle at the rink. Yeah, real smart move wasting out tax money on that.
And another thing, if they cared about VS so much, where are they now? They all moved away. Yeah they were real great for our village.

[UnregYeahRight]

Mistake as in actually using the taxpayers' money to create something constructive for the kids of VS to use? As opposed to using the taxpayers money to create a bunch of useless jobs to handout to campaign "volunteers"?

Yeah, I can see where that kind of thinking might confuse you.

[UnregKingKullen]

Donley was also the one who fought to keep King Kullen from putting that massive structure up right next to homeowner's yards and putting in an entrance ramp from East Avenue.

He left office and the American Legion Junta caved in to developer Serota's wishes ($$$$) again, just like they did with the six story monstrosity on Sunrise Highway, and the people of VS were screwed over once again, and again left with a nasty city-looking eyesore in what used to be a nice suburban village.

They ruined the property values of homeowners near the monster office building on Sunrise Highway. They ruined the property values of homeowners near King Kullen. Now they're standing by and watching the property values of homeowners in Gibson get ruined as well.

Seriously, how much longer are we going to take this? Anyone of us could be next.

Vote the opposition party into office: Margolin, Crupi, and LoCascio!

Hey, I never said it would be easy beating you guys. These are not only off-year elections, they are also off-*MONTH* elections (March? WTF?). Unless you have a large organization going in, or there is a huge public backlash against the status quo, the Republican machine always will have the big advantage.

You guys winning, and Donley losing, is not indicative of an approval/disapproval. It's just a manifestation of the obvious realities of the election process in Valley Stream. Beating the machine was a once in a generation thing, a definite rarity. Twenty years have passed again, so perhaps it's time for another.

I have addressed everything you've posted, so stop the further lying. Just about everything from the Fare campaign has been easily disprovable lies. And frankly, I'm very surprised you were able to spell "C.I.A."

I did forget to mention Rockaway Avenue. The American Legion Republicans have allowed it to deteriorate terribly, where once it was the crown jewel of the Village.

Now we have illegal aliens living in rundown low-rent tenement buildings, getting drunk, killing each other, and dumping the dead bodies in dumpsters on Rockaway Avenue. True story, Google it.

The American Legion Republicans have stood by and watch the once-great Rockaway Avenue deteriorate into a Guatemalan barrio. Nice work guys.

Ms. Crupi was criticized by the Fare campaign for saying she was for less of these undesirables and this behavior. So I guess we can only assume that Unfair Double Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare campaign wants more of it.

Goodness me, whatever will the Village look like once he's done with it?

[UnregUT]

I will run against Curran in 2012!

Make that Dermond "Uncle Tom" Thomas, the Democrat who sold out to the GOP to get a token elected office.

[Grasshole]

The Grasso thread disappeared from the rumor thread, so I'll respond here.

Gibson is behind Grasso? LOL!

Yeah, the Gibson folks love the disinterest and neglect from Village Hall. Gibson folks love that Grasso has zero concern about the biggest assault ever against Valley Stream housing prices. What's not to love?

Oh, and the railroad commuters love him too. Village Hall QUADRUPLED the cost of resident parking stickers even though there aren't enough parking spaces for commuters. Grasso's answer? He's making more parking spaces for NON-RESIDENTS. Thanks a pantload pal.

Anyone who votes for this simpleton is a clod.

The village is spiraling down the toilet and all the Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare campaign is concerned about is themselves.

Then they have the nerve to say the Margolin campaign is a one issue campaign. All Fare and company care about is themselves! That's their one issue. At least Margolin's issues concern the community as a whole.

Vote! Vote for change! Vote Margolin, Crupi, and LoCascio.

[Grasso Sucks]

Period. He did what Carolyn McCarthy told him to do. Not get involved with FEMA. HEs a fucking disgrace.

DO NOT VOTE 4 GRASSo

HE IS NOT FOR GIBSOn

HE WILL GO BACK TO WORK AT THE NASSAU BOE

ALL HE CARES ABOUT IS HIS NEW PATIO OUTSIDE. VINNIE G DOES WHAT HE WANTS.

HES A POMPOUS GOOMBA>

[D.O.A.s]

Dead bodies strewn around the village. Desperadoes raiding across the border from Queens like we're living in El Paso, Texas.

LoCascio is a retired NYPD sergeant, which was former Mayor Cahill's prime qualification.

LoCascio knows how to speak to the police, he'll know how to present requests for more police presence in the Village.

Margolin! Crupi! LoCascio!

[Dumpster D.O.A.s]

Actually there was also a murder/dumpster body dump in Gibson too.

Ed Fare took immediate action and ran to the bank to cash his two paychecks from the taxpayers of Valley Stream.

[Watch Your Step]

Fare campaign volunteers were out and about today, stepping over dead bodies and gunshot victims, to put campaign literature in peoples' mailboxes.

Four more years!

Yeah....right.

[Multiplex Memories]

John DeGrace's loss was largely attributed at the time to the shooting at the Godfather III premier at the Sunrise Multiplex, which lead to metal detectors being installed. Haven't been there in years BAFAIK the metal detectors are still present.

Things have gone way downhill since then and not a peep from Village Hall. Gunshots are becoming a common occurrence now in the village. Right now there seems to be less crime in neighboring Queens villages like Rosedale. Plenty of police presence around there, highly visible. The NYPD has effectively managed to push the crime over the border where we have to deal with it.

But what about us? The Fare literature, wisely I guess, doesn't even mention crime.

The crap they're handing out today talks about "creating jobs." Oh, really? I wasn't aware the Valley Stream Mayor's Office had a macro-economic impact to create jobs. The only jobs they've ever created were for their "connected friends", who you see wearing the orange t-shirts.

There was a Fare/Bogle sighting today on Valley Stream Blvd. I couldn't help wondering why the Republicans didn't run Judge Bogle for mayor, one of the most respected public figures this village has ever produced.

Instead we've got this abortion of a ticket; double dippers, party traitors, turncoats, career political hacks, and as we've seen on this thread, congenital liars and smear merchants. Yuck.

People, we have a chance to retake control of our village. The track it is currently on was established by Fare & Co. It is time to shut down the engine, back the train up past the switch, and put it on a new track. Give someone different a chance to rescue our village.

Fare's literature doesn't even ADDRESS or MENTION the problems that concern us. They are completely disconnected from the people of Valley Stream. It's long past time to give the RINO Republicans a wake up call!

We need a Valley Stream Tea Party.

Margolin, Crupi, and LoCascio.

[Gibson Blvd]

Boy you're fucking stupid.

[Double Dippin Suckup]

Boy you're fucking stupid.

Wow, a very thoughtful, concise, and fact-filled observation from the Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare campaign.

LOL!

[UnregisteredMargolin]

Boy you're fucking stupid.

Maybe you have a little more to contribute?

Maybe, but not likely.

ROLF....

See you on Tuesday. :)

[LoCascio Lit]

Back in your hole, c**t!

[UnregDeep Thoughts]

Wow! More deep and thoughtful analysis from the Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare campaign.

Why is it anytime they can't answer a question we get a "Shut Up" in reply?

Or an "Awwwww, poor baby, someone shot you and murdered your wife? Man up, I gotta go pick up my second paycheck."

The Village's self-centered, neglectful, and often downright abusive administration has got to go!

The Village meter maids are a perfect example. While it is a good idea to have them to prevent parking abuses, the job has clearly been transformed from one of a public service position to one of generating revenue for the Village.

On Rockaway Avenue I've seen them hover around parking meters just about to click onto "expired". I've seen old ladies running out of beauty parlors with aprons still on their necks hobbling to the meters and still getting tickets. They've even been known to write tickets before the meter even clicks onto "expired," which is a crime.

None of that is really necessary. It's only happening because the dictators at Village Hall need more money, which is why Grasso wants to sell more of our parking spaces to non-residents. After all, we have to spread a lot of village cash around to the Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare campaign "volunteers," don't we?

No, we don't.

Ask people why they don't shop on Rockaway Avenue anymore. They'll tell you it's because there's no parking and the meter maids swoop down mercilessly on people. You think Fare & Co. care about the Rockaway Avenue shopkeepers? Hell no, not as long as they can rake in some cash from parking tickets they don't. Heck, people are be murdered and bodies dumped on Rockaway Avenue without so much as a peep from Fare & Co.

Stop the crime. Stop the violence. Restore Rockaway Avenue. Help our Gibson neighbors fight FEMA. Stop the abuse and neglect from Village Hall. Stop the double dipping. Stop the Double-Dipper!

Vote Margolin, Crupi, and LoCascio.

[ValleyStreamTaxpayer]

I'm disappointed that my tax dollars were used by Fare, Grasso and Bogle for that Village Green "newsletter" as if I'm too stupid to realize that it was sent right before the election. Not only was it written by someone who doesn't know how to use punctuation, but it only quotes the trustees who are running in this election. It's insulting.

"Village Board passes 'No Smoking Ban' in A.J. Hendrickson Park."

Does this mean there will be no smoking ban after all? I wanted a smoking ban or a "No Smoking" ban. And a real one at that. The quotation marks suggest it's only an alleged no smoking ban.

[Almost there]

I'm too stupid to realize

Everything else was unnecessary. For someone so concerned with punctuation, you could use a lesson in being concise.

[ValleyStreamTaxpayer]

Actually, I'm *not* too stupid to realize that Fare & Grasso are using our tax dollars to campaign, as proven by the fact that I pointed it out. You'd be just as angry if you actually worked hard to earn money that these people are snatching away to circulate self-serving propaganda.

Today, I found a UCP flyer in my mailbox. It had no stamp, no address, and no return address, so the placing of it there was illegal.

[UnregU-R-Right]

Today, I found a UCP flyer in my mailbox. It had no stamp, no address, and no return address, so the placing of it there was illegal.

Of course you are right. I read that today in Margolin's literature handed out at the railroad station.

Margolin also wondered in his handout how Unfair Double Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare will be able to handle the job of teacher AND mayor at the same time. Margolin is a former teacher himself and knows the time demanded by the teaching profession.

What Mr. Margolin also knows is the real truth, the unmentioned truth.

The truth is that Ed Fare won't really be the mayor. John DeGrace will be the real mayor. Minus the four years that the esteemed Mr. Donley was our mayor, John DeGrace has been the mayor of Valley Stream for the past 30 years.

DeGrace will tell Ed Fare what dates and times to show up at Village Hall, and how to vote.

Hell, he doesn't even have to tell him. Nothing is ever even *PROPOSED* that gets a "no" vote. Look at the minutes of the meetings on the village's website. EVERYTHING proposed gets five "yes" votes. There hasn't been a SINGLE DISSENTING VOTE IN YEARS! You'll hear the word "no" more often in a whorehouse than in Village Hall.

Not a smidgen of dissent. Not an iota of free-thinking. Zero independence and/or independent thought.

So no, that's not going to cut into Ed Fare's teaching schedule a bit.

Show up, do what you're told, keep your mouth shut, and vote "yes" on everything that lands in front of you, and you'll get a nice secondary paycheck from the village taxpayers.

True story: One time John DeGrace walked into Ed Fare's office to talk to him. While chatting away DeGrace put his newspaper down on Fare's desk. Without blinking Ed Fare wrote "Yes" on the newspaper and signed his name underneath it.

DeGrace will also tell Ed Fare who to hire for what job, and who to fire. What roads to pave where what friends live. What trees to have the village cut down in who's backyard. Special favors for special friends. It's time to cut that crap out and give all the Valley Stream taxpayers a fair shake, not just those with "connections."

C'mon Valley Stream, break the DeGrace machine!

Vote Margolin, Crupi, and LoCascio!

I'm voting first thing in the morning! :)

I wonder if your mouth will still be running once your "Gibson only" club of candidates loses today. The average vs resident saw right through their silly campaign of blaming the village for a federal issue.

[UnregOf-Course]

I wonder if your mouth will still be running once your "Gibson only" club of candidates loses today. The average vs resident saw right through their silly campaign of blaming the village for a federal issue.

Of course I will keep running my mouth. I've been fighting the machine for decades and will continue to do so until we finally get some decent fair government in this Village.

I served my purpose. I think I worked harder on this campaign than Margolin, Crupi, and LoCascio. I never even saw them. Not once. I don't think they ever even left their living rooms. They stayed home watching TV laughing.

Meanwhile, I convinced you douche nozzles there was a palpable opposition to your campaign. I compelled Unfair Double Dippin' I-Don't-Care DeGrace-Is-Really-Mayor Ed Fare and Company to walk miles around town campaigning, handing out tons upon tons of literature (my house alone was papered five times). The machine was forced to spend more time and money on a campaign than they have ever done in recent money.

Margolin & Company produced one piece of literature: Total Cost at Staples: $20.
Making the American Legion Junta go nuts spending a fortune on printing and running all across town sweating: PRICELESS!

As you would say .... PWNED! :)

The FEMA issue was a Village issue. FEMA showed the flood maps to the Village. True to form, the Village government looked at the maps, shrugged their collective shoulders and said "No problem. We don't care. We don't live in Gibson. Neither does our boss DeGrace."

So now we have another four years of lousy to government to deal with. Margolin says he is creating a VS Community Organization, which hopefully will lay enough groundwork to field a viable opposition party next time around. Not necessarily him as a candidate, but there has to be some electable folks in VS who are not part of the DeGrace machine.

Meanwhile, those VS residents who aren't murdered by the next trustee election will have an opportunity to vote for someone and something different. VS residents will just have to bunker down for a few years, arm themselves, and hope they survive the Unfair Double Dippin' I-Don't-Care DeGrace-Is-Really-Mayor Ed Fare crime wave sweeping the town.

I think I will keep this thread alive in the coming years leading to the next elections, as sort of a reference point for voters to visit and review the truth and the real issues. All the American Legion fascists can respond to legitimate complaints from voters with are insults and bald-faced lies.

As for you, congratulations, you won. You get to keep your orange t-shirt, your $20K a year job, and your basement apartment in mommy's house. Just bear in mind that by winning, you're still a loser. Every election victory for you brings a complacency that cements your position as a loser and locks you further into a loser position and job for life.

DeGrace is a nice enough fellow, but he's a meat head, and you're an errand boy for a meat head.

And so is our new "Mayor": Unfair Double Dippin' I-Don't-Care DeGrace-Is-Really-Mayor Ed Fare.

[Next Trustee]

The initials are BD.

New Trustee will be VH RD VA KH KB

[UnregFreeParking]

Black SUV, NYS Plate, (I can post the plate # if anyone wants) parks everyday in the 2 hour parking lot diagonally across from the Post Office next to the railroad.

Gets a parking ticket everyday, yes everyday, from the Code Enforcement Agents. How much are those tickets these days? $25?

That leaves two possibilities:

a. This guy is paying $500 a month to park his car to get on the train
b. Someone at Village Hall is squashing his parking tickets

Which do you think is most likely?

Why do the rest of us have to trek a 1/2 mile a day while this guy can park for free, illegally, everyday? When there are no more legal spots for us residents, we have to walk. Meanwhile, Grasso wants to sell more parking spots to non-residents.

But I digress...

What is the integrity system of the Village's parking summonses? How do we know they're all being accounted for and that no one is getting special treatment?

Answer: We don't, and obviously people are getting special treatment.

This is PRECISELY why we need at least one trustee from the outside party watching these crooks.

Look at the turnout for this election. Fare won with 1800 measly votes. That's their base, their friends, the people they squash parking tickets for.

The rest of us? Screw us.

Donley won with 3900 votes. Ah, those were the days. Oh, to bring them back.

Let's start now to build up an opposition party to combat Mayor DeGrace, ehhhh, I mean Fare.

On second thought...

Why am I sitting around here bitchin' about this on the Shmutz Report? I got the license plate number, I'll just fire off a letter to the District Attorney's Office.

Rice would *LOVE* this. Talk about an easy conviction!

The code enforcement agents obviously aren't in on this, because they keep on writing the tickets. Put 'em under oath and press them and they'll swear they wrote the tickets to New York State license plate # XXX XXXX everyday.

Destruction of official government records, accepting unlawful gratuities, receiving rewards for official misconduct, bribery, oh the list goes on....

It's long overdue to see someone being frog-walked out of Village Hall in handcuffs. With any luck it'll be the Ole Double Dipper himself, or maybe even Mayor DeGrace.

"Dear District Attorney Rice..."

No doubt frantic phone calls are a-flyin' and knees are a-knockin' in Village Hall.

[YoungVS]

Some in this thread view the election of Fare and company as the continuation of past policies, control, and day to day business. While I understand their concerns, I view the election of this team as a beginning to addressing long standing concerns of our community as well as more recent events such as FEMA.

As we all know, there is so much to tackle. I hope those of you that have stood opposed to the Fare team keep the pressure on our local officials, but also understand that with your involvement and cooperation a lot more can be accomplished. Whether or not you believe in Fare, Tufarelli, Thomas, Grasso and a yet to be named appointee, try to believe in a collective sense that a lot of good can come out of these local officials.

[OldVS]

I envy the optimism of your youth, however, my optimism is tempered by the experiences of a lifetime of living in VS.

Your optimism is premised on a false belief that Ed Fare is actually the mayor, when in fact, he is not. Maybe in 20 years or so he will be, but for the time being, no.

It is also premised on a false notion that the newly elected officials have pursued their positions with a noble intent to serve the entire VS community. That's another false premise. A lifetime of observation leads to the conclusion that they are there to cement their power and serve their cronies.

The ugly truth is that we have had one party rule, with no independent oversight, ruling this Village virtually since it was incorporated in 1925.

They have been allowed to become complacent and reckless in their routine disregard of the decencies of power and authority.

1800 people voted for Ed Fare, which is about the number of their inner circle of cronies. This wasn't any kind of mandate from the people. Frankly, for the most part the people don't even care, as evidenced by the turnout.

The Village is capable of so much more. Instead, they parcel out the taxpayer paid-for services with teaspoons to those 1800 cronies. If people ever finally woke up there would be another revolt like the revolution of 1991.

Meanwhile, if the residents of VS are satisfied with corrupt self-serving officials, who am I to object? I'll just continue sniping from the sidelines until the next election.

I do hold a remote hope there is potential in Dermond Thomas. Maybe he will step up and do some whistle blowing? Or will he play "go along to get along" with the establishment?

Time will tell.

[D Thomas]

I will run against Curran.

[UnregBeFunny]

I will run against Curran.

Be funny if you did.

Be more interesting to hear Mayor DeGrace explain to his colleagues in the Lynbrook GOP why he gave an elected office to Thomas to launch another challenge against Lynbrook's favorite son.

But somehow I'm sure this was all worked out ahead of time.

Take your eyes off my body and get out there and campaign genius. Maybe if you could have stopped fantasizing about Fare for five minutes your guys would have gotten more than 25%.

Guess I hit the nail on the head... orange t-shirt, big gut.

"Mandate"? 1800 votes? Out of a village of 50,000?

1800 is the number of sanitation men, park workers, their families, and various American Legion junta hangers-on. lol.

The reason you hoodlums keep winning is because you hide the mayoral elections in an off year during an off-month. Who the heck thinks about voting in March in the year BEFORE the presidential election? Put the village mayoral elections in the presidential election year in November and you guys know you be swept so far out to sea you'd never see Valley Stream again.

Didn't you notice this election was the only issue on the ballot?

You thugs make the taxpayers of VS pay for this special little known election of yours, whereas if it was one year later during the presidential elections it could just ride along gratis.

But then you know you'd lose. Big time.

It's always been hard to get the opposition voters out during these off-year off-month elections. It's hard to fight the rigged set up put in place.

As for "your guys"... what part of "I've never even seen Margolin, Crupi, or LoCascio" failed to fire up the synapses between your brain cells? I don't know these people from Adam. I just supported them because they were campaigning against the DeGrace Evil Empire. Hardly "my guys", but they served a useful purpose.

Hopefully their campaign will be the germ of something that will sprout into a much larger movement.

As for Donley, he got twice as many votes as Unfair Double Dippin' I-Don't-Care DeGrace-Is-Really Mayor Ed Fare. As mayor he swept out the DeGrace thugs who bullied village workers into campaigning for DeGrace's puppets. Imagine if Mayor Bloomberg coerced and threatened City Park Workers and Sanitation workers into working on his campaigns as "volunteers". That's what's been going on in Valley Stream for decades.

And you know what, I don't even have to tell you that. You know it yourself.

[UnregBegorah!]

You are a few sandwiches short of a picnic.

T'was a St. Patrick's Day miracle.

For the first day in a year I didn't see the black SUV parked in that lot.

I'd invite you to join my picnic, but no pests allowed. :)

[Terminations a Coming]

Who will get canned or moved or demoted for walking Darcy's petitions?

[Unregoodquestion]

Who will get canned or moved or demoted for walking Darcy's petitions?

I would think Darcy made a deal with Mayor DeGrace to protect his (Darcy's) supporters while pulling out of the election. DeGrace isn't the kind of guy who would go back on his word in a deal like that.

Unfair Double Dippin' I-Don't-Care Wannabe Mayor Ed Fare may want to retaliate against Darcy's people, but I'm sure DeGrace won't allow it.

But I could be wrong. Keep us advised here of whatever you hear. We'd love to know.

In answer to my own question... if Mayor Bloomberg tried the crap with sanitation and parks workers that the VS Republicans have been doing for decades, Bloomberg would've landed himself in jail. It's just a matter of time 'til this whole house of cards comes tumbling down.

If the VS workers were smart they would file some kind of class-action civil rights lawsuit. The problem is, they ain't smart. They somehow get lulled into some kind of sense that they're an important piece of some important operation, and work for free for some crooked politicians.

If these guys in the orange t-shirts had smarts they'd look across Hook Creek Blvd, see the guys on the other side making 4 or 5 times as much money for the same job, and not having to "volunteer" their free time to work on campaigns for their bosses.

But, whoever said they were "smart"? It's DeGrace's army of meatheads. 1800 strong!

[UnregResultz]

I will run against Curran.

You turned out not to be any kind of benefit to the Fare ticket.

Fare got 1984 votes.
Grasso got 2032.
Thomas got 1856 votes.

It looks like a little more than 100 people jumped off the Fare line when they got to your name and dropped down to vote for Crupi, whose name was right under yours, and who got about 100 more votes than Margolin or LoCascio.

So, in retrospect, rather than bringing in new voters to the UCP, you actually DROVE VOTERS AWAY from the ticket.

So what does this say about your political future in Valley Stream?

Let me give you some help Dermond... I know you're black, but have you ever spoken to any of the black folks on the west side of VS? I know you've "moved on up" to the east side, but the bulk of our black folks are on the west side.

Let's talk turkey. You were put on the ticket to bring in black voters from the west side. You failed to do so. Why? Why do have a disconnect with them?

What I can tell you about them is this: they're virtually all civil servants from NYC. Which means they want to see civil servants treated well and with respect. Which is something the DeGrace machine doesn't do. I don't really think that motivated them to stay home on election day, but on the other hand you really didn't give a reason to get out and vote for you either, other than race. And race probably played a factor in people leaving the Fare line to avoid voting for you.

Bottom line: your presence on the ticket was a net loss. It is so obvious to everyone that you're due to be launched off the ticket next election cycle.

You are obviously politically ambitious, so what to do between now and then? Become a voice for the civil servants of Valley Stream. The orange t-shirts only support DeGrace because decades of involuntary servitude has them convinced that's their only option.

Look at the brain-washed manner in which they attack the administration of Mayor Donley. Donley wanted our civil servants to be independent of politics. He wanted them to treated as professionals, not political pawns. He wanted them to be assigned and promoted on merit, not on how vigorously they licked John DeGrace's boots. In short, he wanted Valley Stream's civil servants treated like civil servants in a civil service position, not like serfs living on Lord DeGrace's manor.

Even if the civil servants do not initially rally to support you, the position in favor of them will win you the support of the black folks on the west side. In fact, at first the civil servants of VS WILL turn on you. That's a guarantee, but it is just a by-product of years of the American Legion Junta brainwashing them. Stick with the position, be a leader, and you will amass a following.

[UnregTentative]

Just remember how tentative your position is Dermond.

You were in the American Legion Hall on election night. You know people have worked a life-time to get a shot at one of those trustee spots, whereas you moved to town a few years ago and waltzed in to a trustee spot.

You failed to deliver the black vote, which is the only reason the GOP tapped you. Your days are numbered. Don't be grateful for the chance, USE the chance.

[Who is O'Connell?]

Who is Marie O'Connell?

[Capri4life]

Who is Marie O'Connell?

Ask Dermond Thomas

[UnregGuess]

Who is Marie O'Connell?

Just a wild guess...

She and Jeff O'Connell both live together and donate $$$ to DeGrace's Republican club.

So I'd say she might be someone who feels passed over for a trustee spot in favor of Dermond Thomas?

Am I warm? :)

[Everyone 447]

Everyone contributes to DEGarce's club including Vinny Grasso, who got the highest vote total despite the fact he needs to fix his sidewalk. HA HA

[UnregProlly]

She's probably in line to take Unfair Double Dippin' I-Don't-Care DeGrace-Is-Really-Mayor Ed Fare's trustee seat.

If DT intends to do any reforming he'll be fighting against a stacked deck.

At least we'll get a chance to see what kind of independent man he really is.

My guess? He'll just be the usual 5th "Yes" vote.

[UnregHome Invasion]

Home invasion on the west end. Residents robbed at gunpoint and pistol whipped.

Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care DeGrace-Is-Really Mayor Ed Fare was quoted as saying; "Awwww poor baby. I don't care. I got my second paycheck!"

[Down On The Valley]

.... and following quickly on the heels of Sunday night's home invasion was a brutal robbery. A teenager was set upon by a gang of ruffians, beaten and robbed Monday evening at 7:30 p.m., at the corner of Central Avenue and West Jamaica Avenue.

If that address sounds familiar to you, it should. *IT'S DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF VILLAGE FREAKIN' HALL!*

Word is Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care DeGrace-Is-Really-Mayor Ed Fare watched the whole robbery happen while looking out of his office window.

"Awwww, poor baby. Haw! Haw! Haw! I don't care! I got my second paycheck!"

Seriously, are you orange t-shirted idiots happy with the group of uncaring, indifferent, self-important, self-centered, incompetents you've given us to run the village? Next time it could be your mom or sister beaten and robbed like this?

I bet none of them, not Fare or any of the trustees, could even provide the name of the Commanding Officer of the 5th Precinct, or even pick him out of a police line-up.

But don't worry, Ed Fare has big plans for the Village. See, we're gonna some nice rec stuff for the park. He said so himself. It'll probably involve being chased around the mini-golf course by a gang of heavily armed thugs, but he'll have kept his campaign promise.

Haw! Haw! Haw!

[UnregDogRun]

According to the Herald, one of Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care DeGrace-Is-Really-Mayor Ed Fare's first moves will be to establish a dog run.

A probable site is near the railroad tracks near Central Avenue, which should actually be used for more commuter parking, but I digress...

I have a dog and I use the dog runs in Queens parks. Here's the problem: What's to stop our lovely neighbors over the border to the west of us showing up with their lovely untamed ferocious savage pitbulls? If this dog run is to be "self policed" as the article says, it's going to mean a whole bunch of fights, owners vs. owners and dogs vs. dogs.

There is absolutely no way it will work being self policed.

Look to the NYC Parks Dept. dog runs. Map out where they put dog runs, and more importantly, where THEY DON'T put dog runs. It's sad, but it is reality. Obviously, NYC has a clue that Ed Fare sorely lacks. You'd think Fare would have brains enough to ask himself: "Gee, why are all of NYC's dog runs in places like Bayside, but none in places like Springfield Gardens?"

Because the NYC dog runs are located carefully, with demographics carefully considered, violence is usually kept to a minimum. But still, it happens. Every so often some clown shows up, barely civilized by his own parents, sporting a savage pit bull. Some poor tame dog will wind up on the losing end of a confrontation. Mine did one time at Cunningham Park.

Then there is a fight, arguments over what dog started it, fights over vet bills, etc. Isn't there already enough violence in Valley Stream without creating new environments to foster even more of it?

What will then happen is a new orange t-shirt job will have to be created to check ID's at the dog run so only residents use it. From there, it will just grow into a tax dollar consuming monstrosity.

This is the problem with electing a school teacher. Everything sounds good in theory, but there is no real world experience to weigh theory against. This is going to be a long and disastrous four years. :(

[UnScripted]

This is what happens when Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care DeGrace-Is-Really-Mayor Ed Fare ad libs and goes off the script provided to him by Real Mayor DeGrace.

Ed, you're a figurehead. Don't try to think, it'll get you into trouble. Just do as you're told.

Boy, an angry guy on the Internet who knows better than everyone else in the world? And can't understand why no one else can recognize his brilliance?

Lissen up Laddie, if you think ad hominem attacks and strawman arguments against specific complaints are going to help your boss, Unfair Double Dippin' I-Don't-Care DeGrace-Is-Really-Mayor Ed Fare, you're wrong. You're just embarrassing your orange t-shirted self and your boss.

I never said I know better "than everyone else in the world." I am quite sure, however, I do know better than the Double Dipper. I don't pat myself too hard on the back for that though. I think most people in the world know better than the Double Dipper.

Nor am I talking to myself. Check the numbers. This thread is getting 100 hits a day. I laid out exactly why there shouldn't be a dog run. Know what else? Ed Fare read it too. And there won't be a dog run, for the exact reasons I stated. Sit back and watch, and learn.

This is where we see the difference between a man like Ed Cahill and the Double Dipper. Cahill was a retired NYPD sergeant. He had a career of observing egghead policy makers making decisions in a reality vacuum, and then watching the best laid plans fall apart where the rubber meets the road.

He didn't make these mistakes. Crackpots are going to come pouring out of the woodwork with harebrained ideas that Ed Fare won't know bo diddly about. They know he's a naive know-nothing and that he's going to jump on board with a bunch of them. To disastrous results.

Like this dog run scheme, which like I just told you will never happen. I'll bet you dollars to dog poop on that. And it won't happen because some "Cliched" guy on the internet laid out the facts to a mayor that doesn't know them himself.

Meanwhile, criminals think so little of Village Hall they're committing robberies right outside of Ed Fare's office. What an embarrassment!

You are a joke. You lost. Go away and remember to take your meds too!!!
DICK.

[UnregAwwww]

You are a joke. You lost. Go away and remember to take your meds too!!!
DICK.

Awwwwww, poor baby. Someone dissing your hero? LOL! And I get called an angry guy on the internet.

What precisely did I lose? I didn't run for anything. I didn't campaign for anything. I suppose I did lose what everyone else in Valley Stream lost; an opportunity for objective, fair, efficient, and independent government.

Meanwhile, what did you win? The ability to keep wearing the coveted orange t-shirt for another 4 years? Wow. Good for you. Keep grovelling at DeGraces's boots and perhaps in 25 years you can someday become a know-nothing mayor of Valley Stream.

Here's another lesson sonny: After an election, the opposition is not required to keep quiet as you seem to believe. If anything, they become more vocal as they gear up for the next election cycle. This is what is called "politics."

Meanwhile, get used to the fact that I'll be here keeping a running tally on the Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care DeGrace-Is-Really-Mayor Ed Fare body count, as a wave of violence sweeps over our community and he continues to be clueless in quiet seclusion about the entire issue.

[the good ole valley boys]

the above poster sounds like our good old friends nina and chris bastardi the former young republicans who thought the republican party owed them everything lol now i hear they think the democarats owe them the world also well chris and nina they think your loosers also just like the reps did and btw i hear the green party is looking for new talent maybe they will help ttyl

[UnregisFail]

So much fail, so little time.

This isn't about Dems vs. Republicans. I'm a life-long Republican myself. But I'm mature enough to realize John DeGrace =/= Ronald Reagan.

It's not about replacing a DeGrace Machine with a Bastardi machine. The last thing anyone wants is a new machine.

It's about reform

It's about good government.

Let's hope the new VS Civic Association can muster up some attention and some decent candidates to move the village forward. I'm not too optimistic though.

Meanwhile, let's move the elections from off-month off-year affairs, where a few hundred well-organized votes decide the fate of our village and sew up power for generations in the hands of a select few. Let's put the issue to the people.

I'm willing to allow Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care DeGrace-Is-Really-Mayor Ed Fare to serve a 5 year term. Let's make the next mayoral election in November 2016.

It will save the tax payers money AND give us a better turnout to really select the peoples' choice.

But alas, that's precisely what DeGrace is afraid of.

Hey dick, if you knew anything about politics, you would understand that village elections are held on march to keep the partisan politics out of a local race. So once again you have been exposed as a rookie/nut job. And do you mean that the gibson group that got about 20% of the total village vote wants to start a civic group b/c they feel the village is begging for it?
They are a joke too! Please, go away and take your stupid rants with you!!

[UnregIfUKnew]

... and if you knew anything you'd know that in the past the American Legion Junta used to run as Republicans. They had to ditch the party name because they ran the reputation completely into the ground with their shenanigans. It got to the point that the Republican brand in VS was a mark of doom.

It got so bad it was even beginning to impact the then solid Nassau County GOP.

They were politely ordered to stop calling themselves Republicans.

So you can take you stupid theory about keeping partisan politics out of local races and file in your idiot file.

[UnregOhMyUhOh]

Oh my, how did I miss this in the Herald? *ANOTHER* robbery? This time on McKeon Avenue, a 20 year-old man was set upon beaten and robbed.

Reached for comment, Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care DeGrace-Is-Really-Mayor Ed Fare had this to say:

"Awwww, poor baby! Haw! Haw! Haw! I don't care, I got my two paychecks already lined up, SUCKERZ!"

Maybe we should call him Ed "Robbery-A-Day" Fare, since that seems to be the pace he's setting.

[the board is 2-2]

until a C or I is appointed. very weak job of Fare not being able to appoint his own person.

he will be a weak mayor.

[Down On The Valley]

Nassau County PD Crime Scene Unit was spotted on the west side Friday afternoon investigating a home invasion. Occupant beaten and robbed.

This morning they were on Central Avenue investigating a bank robbery at Roslyn Savings Bank.

Maybe he really is Ed "Robbery-A-Day" Fare.

Reached for comment at Village Hall, Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care DeGrace-Is-Really-Mayor Ed Fare had this to say; "Awwwww, poor babies. Haw! Haw! Haw! I don't care, I'm still getting my two paychecks from you sucker tax payers!"

Yeah, you orange t-shirters really backed a winner with this big stoopid lemon.

Jiminy Crickets, just say what's on your mind.

So who are the new orange t-shirts? Let me guess: they all "volunteered" on the Unfair Double-Dippin' I-Don't-Care DeGrace-Is-Really-Mayor Ed Fare campaign.

[Down On The Valley]

... everyone knows the old Double Dipper can not give anyone a job. He does not have that power or authority.

That has always been, and still is, the exclusive privilege of John DeGrace.

[Friend of The Village]

Ralph Greco never took any kickbacks. Period. Say what you want to say about his Mayoral skills, or lack there of, but don't slander an honest man that never took a dollar from anyone. I worked with Ralph Greco for many years and My father worked with him before me, many years before i worked with him. He is an honest man and never took any kickbacks from Serota or anyone else.

[Right Trustee]

Wrong angle........State Comptroller is sticking his nose there. Planning to audit down the road.

[pvt cit]

A State audit would not position the trustee in a good fashion. It would look like a set up. The best thing for the trustee to do is to go along with the majority. Questions are arising on a daily basis regarding the Bridge Authority and the hierarchy. He should stay close to the GOP leader.
There are also rumblings about the ethics of some of the prior attorneys in the past five years that have represented the village.

Now we're getting somewhere.

Related to the Cusamano contractors? The ones who have littered the Village with illegal two family dwellings for decades? The ones who had a relative carted off to the federal penitentiary for organized crime activities?

Complaints to the village about these illegal homes always met with no result, probably because the village inspector was told about generous contributions to the American Legion junta.

See, provide some names and the conversation can flow a bit....
