NJ to remove windows from all public schools.

Like a fat kid caught breaking windows at school.  NJ Governor Christie told NH out of towners that the latest Moodys bond rating downgrade just means that he is right again.  The pension system in NJ is the root of all NJ deficit.  

Before it was Obama.  Now it is the pension shortfall.  Meanwhile the state is hiding the fact that the Governor took credit for funding, fixing reforming the system.  Then took the funding back and blamed the pension shortfall on the state workers that bargained for it over decades and rely on it.

He and Walker are trying to out do each other with their track record interpretations, but our guy is the best.
Wahhh!

I Don't Have to Commit a Crime.

I don't have to commit a crime, I have people do it for me.  That is how it works in New Jersey.   It works in every other state too for that matter.  The only point here is that we do it bigger and as Joe Biden would say "they don't hide the ball" in NJ.

Can you imagine how much juice, graft, slush, candy, shekels, or cream flows through the NJ Turnpike Authority?  Can you imagine what a job as Chairman of the NJTA is worth?  The Chairman of the NJ Turnpike Authority (NJTA) just retired from His Wolff Sampson Law Firm conglomerate.  Guess who takes over as head of that Law firm?

When you bought and paid for someone, you own them.

Exxon Mobil Bayway Settlement: Deadline for Comment June 5, 2015

exxonmobilbaywaysettlement@dep.nj.gov



Exxon Mobil Bayway Settlement:

The proposed settlement is inadequate and affront to NJ residents, US citizens and the world.  The very idea of this low a settlement reminds us of a third world junta bribery scandal.  Make no mistake that this is some small pollution case. 

This is big.  Not just for NJ, but the nation and world.  If a person or corporation can anticipate little consequence for actions of conducting business the bar is lowered not just in NJ, the US, for all living organism, across every border and every region.

We urge the court to proceed to value any settlement to the standard of Exxon Valdez or BP Gulf.

Sincerely,

What are the odds?

4/3/2015

A weapon so horrible, life as we know it on earth could be eliminated.  The US Congress does not approve of?

The framework to eliminate for now a Nuclear armed Iran has been announced.  We could potentially breath a little easier with regard to the world's future of man made destruction.
  
It comes after a roar of hawkish criticism from the GOP, Israel and within the Democratic party itself.  Besides Israeli interference, US congressional obstructionism and a vocal US Senator Menendez further divides wide opinions of the UN brokered deal.

Menendez also made his disgust with normalizing Cuban relations known as the President uses executive carrots to push Cuba toward normalization.

It is ironic (or not) that today's announcement of the nuclear agreement framework follows the announcement of a federal indictment of Senator Menendez on corruption charges?

Bob Menendez as Foreign Relations Chair openly criticized the President for his efforts big time.   We tried it his way for 50 years of sanctions.  He wants it to continue on that poor country until what?

Good Luck Bob.  Should have bit your tongue. Don't let the door .......

As for the obstructionist hawks on both sides of the isle, guess sanctions did work.
