Stultus Universitas

Got an email about an interview with McPloy.  The interview occured thanksgiving day on talk 1300 with Paul VanDenblurb.

In the interview he said he had a college degree.  WHAT!?  Did someone tell the singing shill this?  Tom Scarff has not only admitted McPloy has no college education but defended it.

Ah, gotta sing a new tune!!!

BUT WAIT!

McPloy also claimed that it was on his bio.  Here is his bio: Bio

No mention of post high school education.

If the machine blogger would stop selling advertisiment to McPloy she could for once do something worthwhile.  Or, if the TU asked a serious question every once in a while.....

As a people, we suck!

The 99% vs the 1%

Are you confused about the Occupy Wall Street kids are bitchin' about?  Me too!

- I get that a bunch of country club assholes are stealing money at the expense of the working stiff.  YES!

BUT, the OWS only cares when republicans are doing it, not democrats.

- I get that politicians sell out their power to fill their coffers with campaign contributions. YES!

BUT, the OWS only cares when republicans do the selling out, not democrats.

If you drive by one of these protests, there isn't much to disagree with until you really think about what they want.  But what do they really want?

I think I got it!

Remember, the Jeffersons were ghetto poor and worked themselves into the east side.  

A Clown and A Jester

I hate the idea of posting twice in one day but this is too much.  Marlon Anderson aka Pimp Elmo, says Dunce Clarey has no clue.  Pimp Elmo on Dunce Clarey

If that isn't the clown calling the jester black!!!!

I LOVE this pic, courtesy of the Times Union and Michael Farrell:

I can't say I disagree with much here but after the shit he pulled, I don't care.

GOP Ship Is Sinking and a Gus of Fresh Air

The Grand Old Punters are getting squashed by their own.  First it was "I Told You So" from Lebron.  Now it is Gus, from Guilderland dissing Dunce Clarey, Hack Nelligan and the GOP.  Here is his Letter to the Editor from Times Union dated November 15, 2011:

GOP not living up to responsibility

I am 62 and a lifelong Albany County resident. I was enrolled as a Republican for 41 years. I always voted for the best conservative person but when I wasn't familiar with the candidates, I voted Republican. I always figured a party with Abraham Lincoln and Ronald Reagan must be a good place to be.

My anger at and shame for the Republican Party stems from the fact that I walked into the voting booth last Tuesday and noticed that the county executive, sheriff, comptroller and my Guilderland supervisor and town clerk all ran with no opposition from my party.

I walked out of the voting booth. I didn't want to be part of this very poor excuse for democracy.

While facing a 19 percent increase in property taxes in Albany County in 2012, it's hard for me to comprehend why the Republican Party couldn't at least force a debate on the issues, even if they didn't think they could win.

I don't have any idea where Dan McCoy or Craig Apple stand on the issues because the Republican Party didn't have the political savvy to get the issues out in the open. Instead, these candidates were shoved down our collective throats.

This is a dark day for democracy. I am ashamed to be a Republican. The lack of enthusiasm and/or the lack of know-how to be a political force in this county and this state is indefensible.

The young people in the parks around the country demonstrating are right -- too few people hold too much power.

So I am going to withdraw my enrollment in the Republican Party. They no longer can count on my vote or my money. Instead of GOP standing for Government of the People, it should stand for Government of the Pretenders.

Where is Nelligan and Clarey?  Told you so is right, LOL!!!!!

Sol, the DA of Police Brutality

Where do I start.

Sol Greenberg was DA for Albany County for 25 years.  He built a reputation of being a tough DA.  And like frequent poster to the TU blogs Jango Davis stated, has been a huge supporter of police brutality.  TU Post on Sol

I'm going to go down memory lane through what I think was one of the most fucked up memories for me since coming to Albany in the early 80's

Once upon a time there was a kid, Jermaine Henderson, who played basketball for the College of St Rose.  He was chilling at one of my favorite spots halloween night 1997.  A couple of off duty APD cops were also at the bar and for some reason a beef started between them and Henderson.

The rumors around the student ghetto was that Herderson was getting attention from some girls who the cops were kicking it to.  But somehow it manifested itself over a dart game.  I am sure the machine blogger can figure that one out.

Henderson was arrested, taken into an unmonitored area of the police garage and beaten by the off-duty cops.  What, not in Albany?  Yes stupid asses, in Albany.

Here is the story:
2 OFFICERS SUSPENDED, ACCUSED IN BEATING

Cover Up:
LAWYER SEES POLICE TAPE AS EVIDENCE OF COVER-UP

And here is Sol Greenberg trying to bring charges back on Henderson:
DA MOVES TO REVIVE CHARGES

Here is Dan Lynch dropping some common sense:
THE PRICE OF BOTCHING A BIG ONE

Sol is what we expect from a racist political democratic machine.  Let cops do whatever they want as long as the victim is black.  The black community was enraged so much that, they still voted for clowns into city government.  The regressives were as quiet as an organic prayer circle, that's right those same regressives who scream social justice.  And another stain on a city in decline.

You know if Sol was a republican he would have been killed and dragged to death along Washington Ave as regressives beat the carcass with their shoes.  But, since it was a fellow democrat, lets get together and have birthday party.  My stomach turns as I type.

I would love to see a list of attendees to this love fest to see who will be running for office.

What is great about time is that it forgives.  You can be an evil son of a bitch and still be respected when you end up frail in a nursing home.  But I am with the victim here and I know he will never forget.

Veteran's Day: Kicking Ass Since 1776

Happy Veteran's Day

I have the freedom to be a brilliant smartass because they killed a bunch of freedom hatin'g MFs.

Honor the brave.
Honor those who died defending our freedom
Honor the ones cheated by history (Henry Johnson)
Honor our freedoms!

"Told You So"

The GOP got served again!  Lost every race except for the nurse and guilderland highway superintendent. 

I was following the tweets on the TU and JCE tweeted a statement made by Dunce Cleary where he considered winning Colonie a huge comeback for the GOP.  Dunce, you fucking lost!

Oh and Guilderland lost all the races except for highwayman.  Nelligan, where are you? 

The strategy was to have no one at the top of the ticket so the democrats stay home and they can win the supreme court races.  They lost those too. In fact they lost everything, except for the nurse.

Busch won in the Hilltowns.  So the GOP has 10 county seats, but remember that 5 of them ran unopposed.  I know no one is going to claim that shit as victory.

I emailed Lebron and he replied back at 3 am with "I told you so" along with a link to an interesting Buffalo News article. The "Strategy"

Out in Western NY, the county executive of Erie County, Chris Collins, LOST.  Why is this important?  Why do I care?  Am I becoming BuffaloCommonSense?  The Dunce strategy was also used out there.

" the GOP never sponsored candidates in Buffalo in what critics called an effort to suppress the city's Democratic vote" 

That's right, they tried it out there and it failed.  Cannot make this up!

Oh well, keep sleeping and letting the state go into a one party system.
