  1. just vomited after reading the ridiculous over-exagerated bullsh*t on the prays propaganda page.
    No wonder no one gives the poor soul any credit- he simply doesn't get it. When the OSC or the TOSKI form comes back without any "earth shattering" revelations - Dwight and Johnson imediately think there's a scandel and political interference.
    Do you all know that a certain resident know-it-all sent an e-mail to the OSC DEMANDING that he himself personally is to meet with the auditors prior to the release of any of their findings!!??!!
    HOW f-ing arrogant can you be ?? If that info is released prior to the Board seeing it - LAWSUIT CITY and I'll own a piece of property near Holy Spirit - FOR SURE !!!

    ok - you got me to actually go there and read. I would agree with the "ridiculous" part. It does seem as though he is truley a "dooms day " type personality.

    Interesting specuation on the person who thinks they are important enough to demand that meeting and results. I'm pretty sure it would be illegal for those results to be granted to anyone except our Town Board.

  3. Pity the poor self-impotent authors of both preys and the letter to osc.

    I'd rather wait to see exactly what the OSC and TOSKI come back with before I "cave" to anything.
    If neither audit shows any malfeasance or mis-appropriations of funds or "chargeable" crimes , then I will be one of the ones to go directly to the maligned Board members, past and present, and offer support and assistance with legal services against those who have done all the mudslinging....rest assured of that !

  6. With all due respect to each individuals opinion, I have yet to see concrete evidence of wrong-doing on behalf of the Twon Board- current and past. Someone - please - show me a truly identified criminal act that can be attributed to someone at the Board level either stealing tax money or mis=appropriating monies to either themselves or others. Please tell me that after all the back and forth , that someone from the Cristo,Taylor,Defruscio,Johnson,Jenkins camp has something concrete , other than that clearly , there is a personality conflict. I don't buy into any of the rantings and have yet to see anyone produce irrifutable documentation of patent criminal activity.
    Then - maybe I might understand all the hoop-la coming from the above referenced individuals.
    And....btw : credibility woud come to the Repubicans if you would simply deal with the Chairman of the party and his juvenile actions - I'm assuming Cristo won't allow that to happen though... just a guess.

  7. It has been demonstrated by FOILed documents that a provision was added to a labor contract without the approval of the Board which cost the taxpayers almost $200,000. The provision had sunset in the previous contract. Remember the Supervisor's comment about it at a Board meeting was "what are you going to do about it?" About $174,000 was paid to an individual by the Town absent an appointment or a level of compensation being set by the Board. Some of the "vouchers" (amounting to about $28,000) submitted for payment, lacked an approval signature. And then there are the published documents dealing with the process by which the "stipends" were disbursed to select recipients - including the former Supervisor. ($140,000 and change over a 4 year period.) All these documents have been produced and are on the public record.

  8. and.....just because you don't agree with any of this , doesn't mean it's illegal! Several State agencies have reviewed and given opinions on each of your points. No legal charges were brought - or - recommended. Again - I will wait for the final opinion of both the OSC and the TOSKI firm.
    and....it was not " what are you going to do about it" , but rather something like " what would you like me to do about it "....you've misquoted his way too many times and gotten away with it.....there were several others present as well....

  9. No State agency has completed a review of any of the documents in the three areas I cited. OSC's current review is the first "official" contact any control agency has had with the primary documents - if they are indeed reviewing them. We have no idea as to the scope they have decided upon. You keep saying that these matters were reviewed and no "charges" were brought. It took a long time for OSC to even get in the door and be in a position to look at and evaluate the documentation. They're doing it now, supposedly. By the way......anybody know where the Toski report on 2010 is? Or the AUD for 2010? We're a month in to 2012.

    BTW....I really do think it is illegal to modify a labor contract without the approval of the Board. Regarding the "quote," perhaps Nate has it on tape.

  10. If a person drives 80 MPH on the Thurway and is not given a speeding ticket did they or did they not break the law?

    People with a professional background in auditing and a working knowledge of, and professional relationship with, the OSC have commented on the politicalization of the OSC.

    Let's all throttle back the rhetoric until the current audit of the town is completed by the OSC.

    6. You're wrong, Jim. They are different. Don is the one with the red face that always looks like he's got the bag on; Dwight is the nerdy looking one like the guy on the Big Bang Theory! Both very laughable, though. Ya gotta feel sorry for them; they must not have a life; a social life I mean because they're always downing politics and people. Sad.

    7. Why don't you put your "thoughts" in a letter to the Advertiser and sign your name? Or perhaps you could express them personally to me at a Town Board meeting, or perhaps drop by and ring my doorbell and say these things to my face.

      I've seen nothing of any quality from any one of you personal attackers. The least you could do would be to "own" the dirt you are purveying. Your patrons do support transparency and accountability, don't they?

  13. Once again , juvenile minded Taylor and her cadre' of idiots have resorted to inflating and embellishing because they have NOTHING of any real value to stir the "HATRED POT" with !

    Ann- your pathetically incompetent and your clearly not good at hiding your true , venemous colors!
    Dwight - as stated many times prior : seek medical attention - SOON !

    1. and....to further the argument - thing #2 has pleaded with toot-toot- Taylor to censor her bullsh*t blog- she readily agreed! Yet - the idiotic morons that they are , will b*tch and complain when they can't post something demeaning or slanderous here !... go figure .
      Demanding DJ and his new woman friend Taylor - WHAT A PAIR !!!

    2. I hate to bring religion into this since I don't go to church anymore; but I'm a kind-hearted and moralistic person - she's goes to church, even to communion and yet she is so full of hate for the Democratic and Republican parties. I wouldn't be surprised if she didn't start her own party, come on Annie do something else with your life except B I T C H. I suppose if you got a job at Town Hall all would of been hunky dorey. What is it your looking for in life? New York isn't the bee all to end all; M O V E.

    3. toot~toot~giggle~giggle is openly talking with her new BFF about her vision for a 3rd party taking over in her unrealistic version of the Taylor dictatorship!
      Its actually quite amusing to read and realize she's as nuts as him- and they readily agree with each other ! The queen also has slapped the SUPE -ELECT once again and she now openly mocks Denfruscion....quite entertaining actually

    1. because THEY HAVE NOTHING!!! They are nothing but a power hungry bunch...Taylor and Cristo were looking for a quick power grab so they could reward their family and friends with patronage jobs. They are both hypocrits ! Cronyism and nepotism : both terms coined by the very two whackos who had the exact same thing on their agenda! Taylor still dreams of power and control. She tries to thinly disguise it , but the bottom line is she is power hungry !

  19. Dear Don:
    nice of you to attempt to bait someone again. No one here cares whether or not "you" see anything of quality here, we don't agree with ANYTHING you say.
    Each and every single time someone disagrees with you, your response is to call people "brainiacs" or other such pet names, then you complain when there's a response.
    You have lost ALL credibility with most anyone who reads your persistent carrying on. You insist that your the only one who could possibly know the laws in NYS , and quite frankly, - you need to explain exactly why YOU PERSONALLY must see the results of the OSC audit prior to its release to the Town? Explain your arrogant stance and exactly what qualifies you personally to send that request . You are no one of any value and once again ; after ALL your ridiculous carrying on and foolish banter , there still is NO CREDIBLE EVIDENCE OF INTENTIONAL WRONG DOING and NOT ONE SINGLE PERSON HAS BEEN ARRESTED and " carried out in bracelets " as you and your cohorts have exclaimed numerous times in the past two elections!
    Going to a Board meeting and watching your few followers act like the freak show labeled "Occupy Albany " would be nothing more than fodder for a new " You Tube" video.
    And...as far as Dwight is concerned: who gives a flying **** about Dwight and his arrogant, obnoxious stance on anything ??

    WHO CARES WHAT DON JOHNSON SAYS OR DOES ?

    HE OWES THE TOWN MONEY !

    HE WRITES HERE BECAUSE HE KNOWS IT'LL GET PRINTED - HE CAN'T SAY THAT ABOUT HIS FRIEND TAYLOR - WHO REFUSES TO POST ANYTHING SHE DOESN'T AGREE WITH.

    JOHNSON COULDN'T CARE LESS ABOUT ANYONE WHO SUPPORTS MANGOLD,OBRIEN OR MALONE - HE'S ON A MISSION TO EMBARASS THE DEMOCRAT PARTY BECAUSE HE'S GOT AN AXE TO GRIND - PERIOD.
    HE CAN DISPUTE THAT UNTIL THE COWS COME HOME, BUT THE BOTTOM LINE IS , HE'S GOT AN AXE TO GRIND WITH THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY AND ANYONE WHO SUPPORTS THEM !

    1. Well you seem to care, my friend. Got you putting your "CAPS LOCK" key down and shouting. I am a life-long Democrat, but I will not abide my Party's sloppy and corrupt activities wherever they are found. Progressive political ideals deserve the best representatives. For some reason I just think that you haven't any idea about what I'm talking about.

      Delete
    2. BOTTOM LINE: YOU OWE THE TOWN MONEY AND YOU HAVE AN AXE TO GRIND AGAINST THE DEMOCRATS AND I COULD CARE LESS ABOUT YOU OR TAYLOR AND THE REST OF THE FRAUDULENT REFORMERS/TEA PARTY FANATICS. YOU ALL ACT LIKE THOSE OCCUPY ALBANY FOOLS ON THE TELEVISION EVERY NIGHT !

    3. Blowing smoke George. I'm fine with my attorney's advice. And the local examples of Democratic ideals are far from what should be demanded of even minimal governmental performance. Like where's the 2010 AUD and the 2010 Toski audit report?

      Delete
  21. You bought into his garbage George ! Don't you know Don is NEVER wrong !?
    Dons entire existence revolves around hatred for McCabe and OBrien mostly - but extends to ANYONE who supports the Town Board in any fashion. He writes here because it makes him feel better when people argue with him.
