Funny line, which I'll give you full credit.

I do like how the photo had all of three people in line for this POS to sign his book. It is definitely a book I'll never buy...

And in nearby Passaic we have another crook rehired by the same town he stole from-getting caught again! Maybe a lesson to be learned here for Fulop and McGreevey . . .

At times, today?s orientation felt more like a church revival. McGreevey, who attempted to become an Episcopal priest after he resigned as governor in 2004, read a few Bible passages and asked the ex-offenders if they had sinned that morning.

Thank you Yvonne for posting this. Why is this ex-convict even working for city government ? He has only paid back less than $400. I guess all current city workers can follow in his footsteps. I posted this article earlier in this thread. I also started a thread with this article but it was deleted.

If you read the story, Fulop said this is payback for delivering Sean Connors, McCann's nephew to the Healy camp. Fulop put Sean Connors on his ticket.

The hard part is proving they harmed your right to privacy. Good luck with that because you are dealing with a spy agency protected not only by Congress but also the Courts and they will simply say to you 'it's classified.'


not sure if serious

Evidence that the NSA is snooping on everyone? Ever heard of Edward Snowden or are you living under a rock?

Come on, use common sense. You sound like Christie's attorney. Everyone knows he was connected to the jams. He may not have explicitly ordered the closings but his staff isn't going rogue on a guy like him. They took actions that they knew he'd approve of.

Maybe this is just politics as usual in NJ. But you can still consider yourself a republican yet admit Christie fucked up here big time.


What happened to waiting for the facts to come out, rather than dog piling with innuendo? Isn't it un-American to convict someone on hearsay just because you oppose them politically? It's McCarthyesque, no?

That actually sounds very American. Did you forget where McCarthy came from??

They've been snooping on everyone. Where you been man?

This thread has veered off course but WhoElseCouldIBe is 100% right. Frankly, your statement is a bit naive.

Here is evidence that the NSA is spying on Congress. And if you think government agencies are above getting dirt on elected officials in order to blackmail them and get their way, you aren't very familiar with Edgar Hoover.

Aren't they snooping on everyone? Didn't someone in Obama's administration say that members of Congress have the same level of privacy as every other citizen-which is basically nothing.



Mocking this as a conspiracy is laughable considering we already know the NSA is saving everything we do.

Pshaw - it's easy to write stuff like this when you are selling a house in which you have equity and use political disappointment as your reason for moving. Yes, Fulop is a big disappointment but I find it difficult to imagine anyone moving because of him. What did you expect from a Goldman Sachser????

And Monroe, Boris and that Gravy person, when are you packing up your tits and hauling your ass to (fill in the blank, I'm curious where you might consider going) because of your political disappointment. Personally, I hope you stay and continue contributing to the discussion.
