IT HAPPENED ONE EVENING

  
I have received some inquiries from various posters to blogs if I would post their responses that another blogger will not post, my answer sad to say is no. 

While some bloggers might be vile and offensive they do have a right to spew.  If they do not show your post, know that you probably either, hit a nerve, proved him wrong or just plain embarrassed him.

The only complaint I’ll post is against Captain America but I will not, if the language is vulgar.

Well, I attended the info session that was hosted by Remiga Foy’s group   Saratogians United to Continue the Charter Essential to Sustain.  Mayor Scott Johnson and Joe Dalton spoke about the benefits of the Commission form of government and how well it worked with the Chamber in bringing Saratoga back from the brink of disaster.
The discussion was what one would think it to be (talking to the choir), with about 35 people in attendance which included a number from Saratoga Citizen.  What was typical of Remiga though was when questions were taken from the floor.  Remiga who also served as moderator would not allow any questions from the Saratoga Citizen group in attendance.
This is the way Saratogians United to Continue the Charter Essential to Sustain and Remiga will be conducting her future ‘informational hearings’.  If I were you don’t bother to attend, just figure everything is wrong.

  1. what I find interesting with what Joe Dalton did that no one pointed out is that all the shit that he did would have been done with NO MATTER WHAT FORM OF GOVERNMENT EXISTED. Plain and simple. His brashness and simple common sense and some shrewd behind closed doors business dealings are what made this town better. It had NOTHING to do with the commission form of governement. Sad to see him used as a puppet like that but then again he is retired......ugh.

  2. I think the fact that Dalton got arrested for coercion is enough back room, behind closed door stuff for me.

    Nuff said.

    Dalton, Tom Roohan, Brian Cumming, all went to court for coercion, trying to imtimidate Bruce Livinsky, but got caught by the hidden tape recorder.
    Check it out.

    1. However I do have the file from 1996 that states:
      "A City Court case in which three Saratoga County Chamber of Commerce leaders were accused of threatening a local developer was adjourned in contemplation of dismissal Thursday.

      Special Prosecutor Polly Hoye and the defense attorneys representing chamber president Joseph W. Dalton Jr., board of directors chairman J. Thomas Roohan and past chairman Brian Cumming said the evidence in the case warranted the conditional discharge."
