Is That What It's Called Now?

The Judge who acquitted former Senator Wayne Bryant, mused in her ruling that:

“It is not surprising that state legislators ... are hired or retained by municipalities or developers ... perhaps in part for their political acumen.”. [emphasis mine]  See story here.

Here's the background.

Sure, that's why Bryant was "retained".  Bryant was so smart, so smart in fact that he's in prison.

You really have to laugh at the twisted logic

Gov. Chris Christe = Another RINO

I wish it weren't true, but it is.  Maybe I should regret voting for Christie and promoting him and maybe all those poor people invested at MFGlobal wouldn't have lost their shirts when Corzine went on to bankrupt MFGlobal after losing the election to Chris Christie.   Hard to say if NJ taxpayers would endured losing more money under Corzine.  After all, the so-called Wall Street wizard, Corzine, raised the sales tax by 33.33%, and raised the tolls by 50% and more.  Raise the tax on alcohol too.  But not beer,  A racist and war-on-woman move if I ever seen one. Ladies love their wine.

However, no matter how many new taxes are passed, it's never enough for our blood tax-thirsty democrats. 

Now, incredibly, our present Governor decided to yet further have ratepayers subsidize solar panels again, to ratepayers' economic peril.  See here.  Clearly, the Govenor either doesn't understand the solar scam or it's a clear indication that Christie is a closet liberal, or perhaps he's trying to help his brother, who I understand, is in the business of the solar scam business.  What this bill does is manipulate the market.  New Jersey, by demanding energy companies to produce green energy, which it can't unless those energy companies raise  rates on the consumers (us) to either produce a product that is economically devastating to the consumer, or forces those energy producers to purchase SRECS, which is equally devastating to consumers.   I can't even believe it's legal. It shouldn't be and Christie should know this, but he chooses to ignore it for whatever reason.  A true conservative would not do what Christie did in signing this subsidy.

The article compares New Jersey to California.  California is on the edge of economic collapse.   Spain was the model for solar panels.  See where this forced energy got Spain?   Spain has gotten and needs more bailouts.  So let's follow Spain and California?  You must be kidding me Governor??!!

Regardless of any of these scenarios, it's not good for consumers of energy, the ratepayers, who are all of us who use electricity.  I am practically living in the dark as it is ... hesitant to even turn on a light.  It just got worse under this jackass of a Governor.  Our Governor admitted to not being too good with numbers.  If he can't add, he surely has no concept of science.

Frankly, I'm sick of the Governor's "straight talk".  That schtick is getting old.   I'm sick of hearing of the Governor's obsession with Bruce Springsteen.  Springsteen went out in the 90's.  Still our Governor acts like a teen-age star struck fan.  NOT APPEALING AT ALL.

Again, like Whitman, a republican, will leave office leaving the State of NJ, and its taxpayers and voters with a sour taste in our mouths, setting us up for another democrat to take control.

Gov. Christie is no Govenor Scott Walker.  Not even close. What the RNC, Fox News or any other media outfit sees in Christie is beyond me.

We got punked.

Wisconsin Governer Walker Wins Recall Election

This was the only election that interests me.  I'm glad to see people are finally taking a stand against thug Unions who are literally eating us out of house and home.

I am JUBILANT.

Union County Prosecutor Loses Round 1

It's almost too stupid to comment on, but since it involves First Amendment rights, the New Jersey Law Journal reports that Union County Prosecutor Theodore Romankow lost his/their summary judgment motion to dismiss a detective's lawsuit over what the detective sees as free speech.

I have ZERO respect for Romankow for a number of reasons and can't stand him.  Read this for yourself and you will probably agree.

Keep burning our hard-earned tax dollars Romankow.  He could care less.  He's set for life.  Those legislators and/or governor who helped him along have either left their office in disgrace, are dead or in prison.  See here for some of those details.  h/t County Watchers. All of Romankow's enablers were democrats. 

See here for latest lawsuit details.  How do you get someone like this out of office?  You CAN'T.

It's vile.

Money Bomb Time For The UCWA

After reading today's S.L. Auditor column, and the Union County 2012 tax levy posted by John Bury here, (3.22% for Linden, but Summit at over 10%!) lies about MusicFest costs, soon-to-be ex-Freeholder Scanlon's son being hoisted on the county taxpayer funded payroll here, (not to mention that Freeholder Scanlon admitted that she didn't fully understand the solar scheme) and a host of other malfeasance committed in Union County too numerous to mention, there can be no doubt that Union County government has been out of control for a long time.  At taxpayer expense.

In Linden, we have serious problems with the County, whether Linden's Mayor will acknowledge it or not.  Projects, under the direction of the UCIA and more chilling, the UC Dem Chair, who, just by chance I guess, is the Executive Director of the UCIA, have cost Linden taxpayers more money than we can ever recover.  In the millions.  The Mayor thinks Freeholder Christopher Hudak will help us?   You have a better chance of seeing God.  This Freeholder's father not only advises Linden, but advises the UCIA on bonds.  And gets paid for it.  So too do the other attorneys working for Linden work for the County.  Our interests are NOT the same. No conflict?  If you say so.

We send out hard-earned tax dollars to the County because we have no choice.  What we can do is help the UCWA in their efforts by sending a buck or two or more to the UCWA for their efforts.  The UCWA does its best to pry open the lid of the worm can known as county government.  They fight for the right to access to documents that would never see the light of day.  It's a very worthy organization, a description if I am not mistaken was even used by a Union County Judge, and IMO the only people who are concerned about the taxpayers in Union County.  Name me one elected official who works as hard  as Tina to bring transparency to Union County government.  Just one.
