Being proud and making your childs disablility a plank in your platform when running for political office are two different things. Many people have issues in their personal lives, but you don't make your personal issue the most important public policy issue. It looks a little self serving to make the issue more important than the many issues facing the 100K+ residents living in the district he wants to represent. IMHO
BTW...Hiding behind an Autistic child for cover instead of defending his position on Autism related to public policy is a little dirty and cowardly.
Angelo, doesnt hide behind his child, he is very vocal on what he stands behind, supports and his beliefs! According to Angelos website... http://www.santabarbara2010.com... This is what it states as his PLATFORM!!
Control Spending & Reduce Taxes Cap state spending Reduce State Mandates Share services among local governments
New Jobs... Cut back on state regulations Help our small businesses succeed Reduce the high costs of doing business in NY

These are very broad BS political slogans. NO DETAILS! Where is the HOW in addressing any of those issues?
Let me give you an example of a broad platform and narrow more pointed platform.
"Hi, I'm a politician and if you give me your vote I'll fight for better health care for your children." Very vague, no detail, political BS.
Now the more detailed answer.
"Hi, I'm a politician and if you give me your vote I'll fight to mandate insurance companies cover children on the whole range of the Autism spectrum which will surely increase your health insurance premiums."
I laugh at the "reduce state mandates" and "cut back state regulations", when his actions as legislator and words say the opposite.
New Jobs? ROTFLMAO. Angelo is a major job creator just read his crappy literature. In less than one years as a DEM HE created over 3,500 jobs!! Another miracle worker a la SS Savage. Everyone's creating jobs but the County unemployment rate hit a 60 year high.
This is the baloney he is passing around. Nobody believes it and everyone is laughing at him and his stunad campaign.

It is a joke! Santabarbara wants to cut STATE MANDATES??? Don't make us laugh! Didn't they just pass, with Santabarbara's support and blessing (and Savage's)for a state mandate for ALL private insurance companies to cover Autism??
So don't hand us that bullcrap about reducing state mandates when Santabarbara HIMSELF supported his own personal one himself. I guess you can propose and support mandated legislation ONLY if you can personally benefit by it!

Ahahahahah, your back, you should be embarressed to write on this blog!! You work for RACC!!! [b][/b]and you get paid to post here, can't get a real job
Since SS Savage was elected over 10,000 jobs have fled this County. Someone from the press should strap them on and demand from SS Savage and her running mate ANG to list these alleged jobs that THEY created. They have created nothing but 2 hot dog jobs outside DSS. Their absurd taxes and fees have driven thousands of jobs from this County.
You will have to provide proof for this bogus accusation. Schenectady lost 40,000+ jobs during the many years of GOP controlled County government ... we had hit the bottom on job loss by the early 2000's.

the pool of self sustaining, self controlled, self reliant workforce has hit rock bottom.......why?.....because it's easier to let the government feed/clothe/house you, then claim 'disrespect' at the office of help........and complain while your baby's daddy is off dealing the good life and yet they choose not use birthcontrol.....I'm sorry....I really dont see the need to feed this type of behavior... atleast a drunk driver has penalties.....a drunk/drugged momma and her sugar daddy dont.......
...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

When are we going to learn, politicians and legislators DON'T CREATE JOBS? They write, pass, and enforce laws.
when everyone reads Atlas Shrugged......the Beechnut Tsunami that is now occuring will kill those folks.....120% increase in their water tax......ya see what happens when the government 'promises' security and sells their government cheese only to move it later.....if P then Q.....if GE then Battery plant......
or how about welfare to work.....or a number of prodding the sheeple to jobs programs........

Gladly. We had MORE JOBS in 2000 than 2010. Schenectady County employment was at 64,000 in 2000. After 10 years of SS Savage it went down to 63,000. This is US Census Data not more Goebbels/Savage DEM propaganda.
While County population increased- the tax and spend DEM lost 1,000 jobs! The unemployment rate is up 60% under SS Savage. Where are the 3,500 jobs Savage keeps lying about creating? Where are the 3,500 ANG lies about creating in ONE YEAR? 2 hot dog jobs at the DSS-where are the rest?

Don't forget the jobs from the RELOCATED Villa Italia, the RELOCATED Marcellas and RELOCATED MVP which actually was relocated from the rotterdam industrial park!
The Golub Freezer was just a relocation from Colonie. Same amount of workers!

Ouch. Feel the sting yet Ron? The kool-aid you drank was tainted.
Moving that business to the Ballston Spa business park from Schdy' was a victory too! LOL
