Bo It's Time To Come Out of The Closet: Who Are You Really & What Do You Stand For??

Bo and Marty have become a big joke. Their whole campaign is Bush-style politics, lie, lie, lie, and the more they lie the dumber they sound. First of all JG has brought thousands and thousands of dollars in grant money in order to make sure that the Plainfield Public Library is given the same support in NJ as other libraries. But Bo and Marty have not done anything at all to help the library other than show up for a photo opp. Bo, Chris, and Marty have shown their true colors in the last month by having their own set of rules that allow them to say anything to anyone, but you can’t say anything back to them.

We’ve been waiting the whole campaign Bo, what have you done to help the 22nd District except go around and make stupid mistakes like this week when an individual made a misquote at a council meeting in regards to a statement JG made. Bo, tried to make a mockery of the Central American Festival by making it sound like the Assemblyman was lying about his involvement with the festival. Well your efforts failed.

As far as the race card is concerned and the gay community:

(1) It was not JG but Marty Marks who did not hire the Mayor from Clark, who is a very qualified Republican, because he was Italian. Now that is racism at its best, but you don’t hear them talk about that. If I’m lying then have the Mayor from Clark send a letter stating that it’s not true. He totally disrespected the man.

(2) My understanding is that when the issue of the gay community getting their rights came up, JG voted and spoke up on their behalf. But Bo’s Republican colleagues in the Assembly voted the same way Bo and Marty would have voted, not to give them their rights.

Therefore, when people in NJ are not given an opportunity to get a good education, when the gay community in NJ is not given an opportunity to have their rights, then it’s clear that you feel the same way as all of the other Republicans in NJ. Out of the 80 seats up for the Assembly this year, the Republican Party cannot find one black Republican in NJ to support as a member of the NJ State Assembly. Hello Bo, are you saying that this is not racism? You want the black community in the 22nd District to support you, but you don't support them. This sounds like a page from Bush’s book.


Ps
I am proud of the gay community when they stand up for their rights and they are not ashamed of who they are. However, when I read Bo and Marty’s literature and saw that they were ashamed to mention their affiliation with the Republican Party, it showed me that they are ashamed of whom they are. If we are going to send someone to Trenton we should want someone who can stand up for what he/she believes in. It’s clear that these two individuals have not yet figured that out.

Anonymous Has A Voice

I have been sent an email from a resident here in Plainfield that asked if I would post his/her comment as a blog entry, as he/she has left this comment on many other bloggers' pages, and has yet to see it posted. So anonymous, here you go...

What a difference a WEEK makes. Not too long ago, at this time, Assemblyman Jerry Green had just left the podium at Newark Liberty International Airport Marriott Hotel after sitting with Governor Corzine and Senators Lautenberg and Menendez. Mr. Green addressed the 300 attendees at NJ Minority Business Networking Conference about improved and enhanced opportunities for minority firms on state and federal contracts. The messagewas well received by the gathering and reinforced as it has been during the Assemblyman’s tenure in office. He has made it happen.

Say what you may about style, Jerry Green has taken calls late at night on and off weekends to help Plainfield and NJ minority business persons. He will be on the platform next week as the Governor signs the Executive Order highlighting minority business interests. He and Senator Ronald Rice are a formidable team as they make our smallvoices heard throughout the legislative chambers on business and community matters.

As for those discerning cries about the Tunnel Project, there is no greater advocate for minority workers and businesses than Assemblyman Green. His reputation as a strong advocate for increased goals for minority business participation is well documented and his calls to the highest levels of NJDOT and NJT are documented. The facts are not indispute about his impact on the largest mega project in the country. Do your homework.

As we said earlier, what a difference a WEEK makes.
