Oh LADY GAGASTINO YOU ARE OUR MAJESTY AND OUR LADY FULL OF GRACE! YOU KNOW THE IMPORTANCE OF BREAD AND CIRCUSES BECAUSE, LETS FACE IT- NO ONE CAN AFFORD CABLE, A DVD PLAYER OR NETFLIX! THEY NEEEEEEED YOU, YOU ARE SO FULL OF WONDERMENT AND CARE!
"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."
Working together works! At Vale Park-ROTFLMAO! This is a continuation of the waste started by SS Savage. Now they are expanding it from Nisky. No one goes-a total waste of County money but it keeps a couple of DEM lobs at full employment. Favorite 518 bloggers? This is pathetic even by DEM moron standards.
They can show movies but can't maintain the parks where they show them. Makes sense as much as the guy who can't afford to fix the hole in the roof but has a new Mercedes (on credit.) THIS is democrapic brilliance at its grandest. Makes perfect sense to offer bread and circuses to the kind of fools who need to go to a park and get bitten by mosquitoes at dusk to glom a free movie at taxpayer expense. So what if are drowning in red ink!

I wonder when the first time any of these DEM morons went into Vale Park? This is all about keeping some useless DEM lobs fully employed. They are providing free movies and circuses so what if County taxes are 4X Saratoga County and Cousin Vinny fled? If 2 people show up it won't be for the old movie. All this crap needs to end but Judy DAG keeps the entire charade started by SS Savage going to trick the sheeple.

Not only that, but it will keep the City employees busy as they're not cleaning Central Park anymore. The City didn't cut ANY employees this year, didn't lay off any City employees so where are all the City workers.....ah maybe that Taj Mahal of a City Garage is air conditioned a little too well.
I'm sure the City workers who will be cleaning up Vale Park for this movie have never even stepped foot there before. Mostly volunteers have taken that role.
FREE!!! Anybody that has opened their property tax bill this year KNOWS that this isn't "FREE family entertainment".
Our property taxes represent the county portion as "State and Federal Mandates". Am I then to believe that the movie nights are mandated by state and/or federal government?

Brilliant points as usual. Taxes are at record highs {because of State mandates-lol} then there is no money to maintain any park, pool nor clean graffiti. If you live in the Stockade you know who to call-Ghostbusters! Central Park's trash and litter explosion is dealt with by Tim Conway who bribes the involuntary workers with pizza and warm soda.
Speaking of County waste {which should a stuck thread with these DEM morons} let's talk about the Gillette House. Over one million taxpayer dollars went poof and they can't even open a bagel shop. Even the steps are a mess. What happened? What County idiot oversaw the "renovations"? Where is the Gazetto or Times Union on this latest scandal? An absolute disgrace which should be investigated by the FBI and Attorney General

Very good point. ROFLMAO
Optimists close their eyes and pretend problems are non existent. Better to have open eyes, see the truths, acknowledge the negatives, and speak up for the people rather than the politicos and their rich cronies.

Calling the county tax "State and Federal Mandates" was a HUGE LIE that CHRIS GARDNER, SUSAN SAVAGE, LADY GAGASTINO and the rest of the liars there decided to tell to the taxpayers by printing it on their bill, just like the county nursing home is a "mandate."
This is what happens when you have LIARS working overtime to have political control and a dumbed down populace that is easily tricked.

Well, where are the cheerleaders for increasing taxes on the homeonwers. Does DV aka SB favor spending tax dollar for free movies when homeonwers can't afford their taxes? Would Jesus approve of putting homeowners at risk of losing their homes by hiking their taxes and then using the money for for movies? Would Jesus approve putting people at risk of being unable to pay for medicine just to waste that money on movie nights around town? Well, DV aka SB, what's the matter, rather embarrasing to answer that Jesus would not approve.
