So you get this note for 25 days or so and you lay low and hope no one notices you’re not part of the solution. But we do. And it’s truly unfair to those who, year after year, have shown their support. Today is the day. Now is the time. And if I can think of any other over-used sayings I’ll throw them in here, too. In any case: Just do it. Just say, “yes!” Secure your copies of News That Matters for the coming year! [...] Today, while you’re taking a break from setting the table for tomorrow or packing the diapers for the trip to the inlaws, call William Gorton the Acting Regional Director for NYSDOT Region 8 at 845 431-5750 and calmly explain your opposition. He may send you to someone else or say there’s nothing he can do and that’s fine: your call still matters. And if he gets 20 or so over the next week… ya never know! [...] Back in the day when the county was giving Tilly Foster Farm over to a private individual to run for 40 years as he saw fit, where did you first read about it? That’s right – here at News That Matters. And last spring when Vinnie Tamagna was set to give Paul Camarda $3.7 million taxpayer dollars, where did you first read about it? That’s right – here at News That Matters. [...] A special Thanks! goes out to everyone who contacted the County Legislature on Monday regarding the extension of the extra sales tax we pay here in Putnam County. Your efforts pulled the matter from the agenda from Monday to be reschedule for 2011 when it should be dealt with. Your work proves that a little democracy can go a long way. Mazel Tov! [...] I want to thank the voters for electing Greg Ball to the State Senate. You’ve insured me two solid years of excellent comic material. It also gives me the opportunity to consider running for the Senate two years hence which would be a pip and oh, so much fun and, once the ‘baggers have shown they cannot govern the monster they’ve created, should be an easy win for almost anyone. [...] 104 – That’s how many write-in votes were cast in the race for County Executive! While we do not know how many were cast with my name, it does not matter – that wasn’t the point. The point was to generate an “option” and it worked. [...] First off, this: Not all politicians are liars and crooks and thieves and scoundrels and womenizers and menizers. Some are, believe it or not, actually interested and dedicated. But with all the noise being made by those for whom ‘knee-jerk’ is synonymous with ‘breathing’ it’s hard to hear the truth. So, will you folk just calm down and try to be just a little objective? Will you, please, start thinking for yourselves and accept that the talking heads on FOX are just that, talking heads? Research shows they have no clue, are mostly wrong and egocentric and miss the boat way more often than not. Thank you. [...] Each day that passes the campaign for county executive, Congress and the State Senate (40th) just gets stranger and stranger. If the elections don’t come soon the National Institute of Health is going to have come in and administer Thorazine to everyone in the county just to stop our heads from exploding! [...] Do you worry that Jeff might actually win a write-in campaign, as Ball recently did in the Conservative Party primary? It is possible, I admit. [...] |

Write-in For Putnam County Executive
Folks, if you cannot vote for either Odell or Leibell on Tuesday don’t pass up the office when you go in to vote. Protest and let your vote actually count. Write in “Jeff Green”. It fits nicely in the box, by the way. Let’s shoot for 50 write-ins – they’ll be paying attention! [...]
