Lackawanna: Democracy or Dictatorship?
Lackawanna, NY 2011: Land of FA (short for FAT A****)
Lackawanna is no longer governed by a Democracy. Our Council President seems to forget he was "elected" by the voters in this City. Apparently he feels he is Royalty...and held his own "Coronation" and he is KING.
So now now he shall be dubbed The "FA KING".
We now have the FA King and the 4 FA King Stooges with no independent minds of their own. And WE actually pay for the privledge of their stupidity and arrogance.
Where does the FA King sit? On his FA King Bar Stool.
If the FA King does not agree with you his attitude is "NO FA King Way".
The elections are coming up. The FA King wants to be Mayor and the 4 FA King Stooges wish to be relected.
The VOTERS of LACKAWANNA must say back to them: "NO FA King Way".
How long must we be ignored or abused by them? I promise you in a couple months they will be all over the City of Lackawanna making promises they will not keep. Asking you to support their election campaigns. To make phone calls for them, put signs in your yards. Attend their fund raisers. Trying to be YOUR best friend. Acting humble and pleading for your votes. And then once the votes are counted, they will give us more of the same.
If YOU do not care enough to go to Council Meetings and speak up and be heard, then you allow them to do what they want and not answer to anyone. And after the deed is done... it is too late...for YOU!
Then...WE THE PEOPLE OF LACKAWANNA.... MUST RISE UP AND SAY TO THEM: "NO FA KING WAY". Only then will they realize that just because Lackawanna is a majority of Democrats does not guarantee them an easy pass into "ELECTED" OFFICE.
The City of Lackawanna is a train wreck. Our Business District is a disgusting joke. People and businesses are LEAVING. This is a "rental" city. Homeowners are not getting support to keep out the crack heads that find our "rentals" attractive. We face a losing battle to maintain our homes and property against those that have no vested interest in this city.
Maybe the FA Kings of Lackawanna would like to buy our houses from us. Then they can just re-zone the entire city as Section 8.
Enough is enough. We have to start voting for the PERSON, NOT THE PARTY. Because when the elections are over....it will back to business as usual and we will get another "FA King". Killing our city and treating us like road kill.
RISE UP RESIDENTS AND VOTERS OF LACKAWANNA....TELL THE "FA KING" AND HIS "FA KING CRONIES" THAT WE ARE DONE WITH THEM. :mad:
ON ELECTION DAY...THEM THEM: NO FA KING WAY !!!
Lackawanna: Democracy or Dictatorship?
I'm new in town. Just curious...what is the Chamber of Commerce doing? The City Council? I drive around and see LOTS of empty businesses and store fronts with FOR SALE signs. Why is that?
I can't stop laughing at this!
"Where does the FA King sit? On his FA King Bar Stool."
He even had a full-blown bar by his desk for years until I told how sick it makes me to one of the groupies/wannabees who posts here regularly........ It was gone the next day! At his Xmas party ALL the family and friends parade to his chamber and present him with bottles galore! He keeps most and the ones he and the wifey don't like get donated to the Seniors for their drawings so he can further puff his chest out! Lots of Seniors are on meds---give them a Tim Horton card and they would love it!
See, if people say I didn't do anything...here's another----I got the FA King to hide his bar!
Seriously, all of our reputations speak volumes about our past and present character--- it is what it is with them. I realize people change and always give the benefit of the doubt, BUT we have had 10 long years of the FA Kings reign...... I challenge him/them to list their accomplishments!
The FA King even has the nerve to take HIS City owned vehicle to the club meetings. Also at night to a school board candidates "cocktail party" at Lake Erie a few years ago.
I have asked for PAINTED ON City Seals on all publicly owned vehicles for years----the FA Kings Love jester refuses, because????....... he lives in Hamburg! And is on his 3rd City Chevy truck, paid for by you! Free gas too for all of them----think about this next time you fill-up!
Democracy or Dictatorship
Right on MNB and Andrea. The second ward is in a shambles. If you can't take care of a ward how the hell are you going to take care of the city? Hopefully people will see through this and vote these village idiots out of office.
