Grab your bowl of popcorn because politics in Brooklyn and Staten Island has reverted back to fifth grade. Marty Golden has Nicole Malliotakis backing his stupid moves (remember he introduced a bill which gave millions of dollars in tax breaks to billionaires – Malliotakis voted in favor of this bill and forgot to mention her […]
Thursday, July 17th, 2014Nicole Malliotakis Pulls the Wool Over Staten Island (and they like it!)
I reported a mistake in an article to the editor of the Staten Island Advance. A law that was recently passed banning pet tattoos was credited to Nicole Malliotakis, when it should have been credited to Manhattan Assemblywoman Linda Rosenthal. The article was published on March 11th and can be seen here. Malliotakis […]

Friday, February 21st, 2014Nicole Malliotakis: Bay Ridge Deserves Better
I really wanted to like Nicole Malliotakis. Malliotakis is an Assemblywoman for Staten Island and Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. I hate to knock women in business or government, but this post is long overdue. I had hoped that Ms. Malliotakis would prove me wrong and show that she is a reliable politician, but she isn’t. […]
Friday, November 1st, 2013John Quaglione Doesn’t Have the Knowledge or Leadership for Representation in Bay Ridge
John Quaglione is running for City Council against Councilman Vincent Gentile in Bay Ridge, Dyker Heights and Bath Beach. John Quaglione does not have the leadership or knowledge needed to be a councilman. When Quaglione’s home garbage was not picked up last winter, he tweeted a complaint about it instead of calling one of his […]
Wednesday, October 23rd, 2013Why Would Quaglione Recommend Sal Albanese?
Tonight on Twitter, Will Bredderman a local reporter posted the following: Bredderman had to know I would respond. Bredderman must have thought it was strange for John Quaglione, a candidate for City Council to recommend Sal Albanese for Chancellor or he wouldn’t have asked that question on Twitter. One of the problems […]
Sunday, October 6th, 2013Quaglione Finger Points In Dyker Heights
John Quaglione of Bay Ridge points the finger at parents this week. Quaglione certainly can’t blame Vinnie Gentile for the kids throwing eggs. So Dyker Heights parents who aren’t watching your adolescent children every moment of the day, you are on John Quaglione’s radar. Kids throw eggs because they are kids and sometimes do […]
Wednesday, October 2nd, 2013Quaglione Did Not Know the Referendum Being Voted on Nov 5th
On November 5th, we will be voting for a referendum that can add up to seven more casinos in NY. The issue has been on the news and in the papers mainly because Cuomo’s people have written it in such a way that it sound positive for school aide and jobs too. John Quaglione, a candidate […]
Thursday, March 7th, 2013John Quaglione – Bay Ridge
When I saw last week’s Brooklyn Paper, the ‘Twitter’ story caught my attention. I recognized the names involved, but I don’t know either man that well. As I read the story, I was annoyed that these two men argued over the littlest thing: Quaglione’s garbage and recyclying weren’t picked up. Now of course that is not […]
Wednesday, November 12th, 2008Obama Shines Hope in NYC
My best friend, Karen looked around on the subway and was disappointed that everything looked and felt the same. She thought people would dress up (or at least shower) and that people would be happier today, but she didn’t see or feel anything different. I asked her if she felt different and she said no. […]
Wednesday, November 5th, 2008Bloomberg Tax Your Cronies!
So after experiencing a wonderful evening where the first black American was elected president, I have to hear about Mayor Bloomberg’s budget cuts and tax hikes for NYC residents. Yet, Ratner and big businesses will be getting huge tax breaks. Since Ratner will have federal tax breaks, I am sure he wouldn’t mind a city […]
Friday, October 24th, 2008Christine Quinn
Christine Quinn, NYC council did what she today because she was caught dirty before. Let us all not forget her slush fund scandal. Quinn never had a chance at becoming mayor so she did what she could to help herself. She will need to work under Bloomberg because no one will forget her mishandling of […]
