The sacrifice they make for ‘public service’

Redistricting put Democratic Sen. John Girgenti  into a new district where he would be up against Sen. Robert Gordon of Bergen County. So Girgenti is considering moving from Hawthorne to Paterson. That would allow him to run in a district similar to his. Girgenti has been in the Legislature since 1978. Wouldn’t you think that’s enough? What’s with these guys willing to move just to keep a part-time job that pays $49,000 a year? Girgenti was cut out of the district so that Nellie Pou, who is Hispanic, would have a better shot at an open state Senate seat. Assemblyman Reed Gusciora will be put in a Republican-dominated district, so he considering moving too. They don’t want to run on their record and ideas, they want a sure thing.

    I recognize the need for districts changing as the population shifts but the jury rigging is a slap in the face to democracy.

    At this point a computer can be programmed to use natural boundries and other non partisan criteria to draw a map. It would be outside of the usual politics and then the chips fall where they do.

    The endless games to hold on to power and to dictate policy and control money is so great that we have descended closer to third world countries and petty dictatorships than a democratic republic.

    NJ is sinking and it is skunks like this that are perpetauting its demise. These cowards would sell their wives and mothers for a dollar so they wouldnt have to work a real job. They just want to ride the gravy train, while we allow it to persist.

    The best thing NJ could do is vote out every incumbent (good & bad) next election just for GP and to send a strong message that current practices are no longer permitted.

    Gusciora is a tax-raising, pro-abortion, pro-gay marriage, gun-grabbing liberal. Indeed, Gusciora is probably the most radical socialist in the entire Legislature. I am not at all surprised that he would sell his house in Princeton and move into a black, Trenton neighborhood in order to stay in the Leglisature. There is no way this socialist could win any other way.

    Government of the people, by the people, and for the people—-decimated by govt clowns. We the people are on the outside looking in.

    These leeches see tax revenue, tax-exempt bond revenue, govt agency assets, and state treasury assets as their personal bank accounts—–to withdraw as much as possible for themselves, their families and their cronies.

    The entire government financial system is rigged for these insiders. The state is billions in debts…..b/c govt parasites at all levels are sucking at the public teat like there’s no tomorrow.

    Who says he would actually move?
    Just rent some flop in some dump and claim it as residence.
    The most ardent liberals often do very well for themselves and live pretty good.
    They often have their fascade residence to keep “down” appearances.

    how 8million people could leave this in the hands of one 80 year old ,
    jewish liberal professor who will be dead long after his biased decision is hurting the rest of the suburban taxpayers he hates so much…..and for the Republicants who OK him, they are just as much to blame in this 2 party plutocracy that has RUINED OUR LIVES

    As Meyer Lansky (I’m sure he was one of their heros) was wont to say, “Who wants a fair fight?”.

    republicans would NEVER do that (see texans for a permanent majority) where EVERY statewide office is held by republicans, their debt is as bad as ours, and their rewriting ALL the text books with ‘facts’ gleened from the internet (see ingle junkie) but hey its yet one more opportunity to slime democrats true or not (see bobs expose’ on menendez) i’m not saying democrats are saints and after 12 years a change was fair and called for but to delude yourselves into thinking fascist republicans give a shit about you is clearly worthy of psychiatric evaluation.
