Is Buchanan still leading the freight train?

Maybe that's the reason for the imminent collapse

maybe it's in the oriqin of the name?????

that could be Mr Senders. It would help if there were an Italian - American in this here position if they really wanted to reach out for the votes but the repubs are protestant rich white people mostly English and German and dont want to let anyone else into the little click

On Sept. 26, 2008, the gazette reported that Mertz lost the GOP support.  It has been almost 2 months and there has been no follow up on this story. There has surely been a meeting of the rep party on this matter. What was the outcome?

Another example of the bias gazette.

Bum:  

You seem to have a lot of insight on issues directly related to John Mertz and coincidentally both you and John mistakenly publically stated that the Town
of Rotterdam is seven square miles or so. Bum, said it on a prior post on this site, and John Mertz in a Jan 22 Times Union article.  As you now know, it is closer to 30 sq miles.  I am sure that it is purely coincidence that both Bumblethru and Mertz underestimated the size of the town by so much....

Coincidentally, I am sure that you, Bum could give us an update.  And I don't think you would be asking if you were not confident that there was a meeting of the Repubs and they didn't agree to oust you.  Guess we will see when the committee votes.   [bum, cicero, johnny boy mertz all so close]

I thought the 7squares were referring to the Town Proper??????

Oh lighten up papa. My post was directed at the bias gazette. And I'm not confident that there was a rep meeting. THAT is what I was hoping the gazette would have followed up on, but obviously didn't. Get it?

But since you brought it up, please show me where I said Rotterdam was 7 square miles. That would be a shocker for me since I don't really know if it IS 7 or 100.....nor do I particularly care in all honesty.

And while you're at it, you really should get your head out of where ever it is and take some focus off of mertz and keep a close eye on the county legislatures that are basically raking you and the rest of us over the coals. You are seriously beginning to sound like one of those uninformed, uneducated people that really do not have a clue as to what is really happening around them. Scary to think that there are that many 'that walk among us'.

Bum:  I apologize.  I get you and Cicero aka "Cissy" confused.  It was your clone Cissy that lopped off 30 sq miles from Rotterdam in his Sept 25 post on :"NY's Open Book....".  Damn, you guys sound so much alike.....

apology accepted

A misstatement of facts when attempting ridicule a member about a misstatement of facts............ How IRONIC!  

well Johnny boy mertz has thr trouble with the truth any way and he wouldnt know if we were talking about miles or feet since he isnt even from here. He didnt go to Draper or mohon or Schalmont so what does he know about over here in this town? An outsider trying to cause the trouble is all

Sal, I too believe that Mertz is the spawn of satan, however; your grammer and sentence structure is just killing me "over here"

sorry I am typing fast over here since I dont have the time

Sal, I too believe that Mertz is the spawn of satan,

You have got to be kidding me! He is the best thing that ever happened to Rotterdam!! He tells it the way it is whether you agree or not! Too bad you are so biased and factless.

Your way of thinking is what is keeping this county from ever progressing forward. Too bad you guys/girls didn't put some of this effort into the county legislatures where the root of the problem truly is!! I guess you are ok with the 9% county increase, huh? Where is your outrage? Instead you whine about someone who is obviously powerless in comparison! May I suggest you get your head on straight!

The town may have only increased taxes a couple % for 2009, but what will 2010 have in store for the taxpayers?  Is the 2009 budget a realistic one or not Bum?  2% tax
increase  for homeowners isnt bad in this economy, but I will hold back my praise for the Town Board until at least midway through 2009 or November of 2009 when the budget is put together for 2010.   I fear the worst for 2010...
