    Channel 2 heard from me. Perhaps they'll finally look into Mary Lazzara.

    The only thing I can see holding them back is the image of AmeriCorps. Well, this image is being tarnished, even decayed by this individual. Keep pushin'

    Americorp has become a monster program at the national level. Many say a monster of sorts is running it here locally. I'm not here to dispute the allegations in here. I'll even agree their is merit for concern. Regardless what is thought in here, from the time the program has started the Federal Government has and will always endeavor to have this program appear impressive looking especially on the surface. Lazzara might well have worked harder at maintaining that appearance than on the developement of the actual program itself. He'll say that the program speaks for itself. Whatever the case it's for others to decide that are not in here.

    Mark Lazzara certainly gives the appearance he has many associates in the political arena, the media and beyond. It would seem as if many are fond of him. I'm not sure if those associations are as genuine as they seem to appear though. I recommend to those in positions who could seek to oust him or curtail his ways best do some serious pragmatic thinking and well researched homework in order to succeed. As difficult as this may be for many in here to grasp, the outpouring of those for him could be suprisingly formidable and numerous with some considerable backlash. I know he's already at work on that. To make a case against him best not appear personal or politically motivated alone and be backed with a show of unity and substantial justification.

    Good Luck to those if they attempt this.

    Seriously.

    Mr. Wantabe, you seem to have joined this forum, this month for the sole purpose of bashing Mark Lazarra. The WS Americorp is Mark Lazarra. If it were not for him, there would be no WSA because he not only runs it for a fairly small salary, but he funds it through GRANT MONEY. Much of his time is spent kissing ass to get the money to put those kids to work. If you Mr. Wantabe smell something, it is probably the crap in your pants.

    Or possibly the aroma is permeating from your house, cause the crap you're shoveling is really stinking up the place. Mark Lazzara is far from sainthood, Skippy. He's more like Damien (Omen) and for an imbecile such as yourself to come on here to defend such a scumbag shows what a tool you must be.

    Has Wantabe ever "bashed" Lazarra? That would be criticizing him without merit. And there has been merit after merit. All legitimate things that should be looked into. "Bashing" is if I accuse someone of bashing when they have not.

    Also, by that logic, if WS Americorp is there because of Mark, that means he gets to run it corruptly, and into the ground? And also, didn't I hear something about it becoming WNY Americorps because he wanted to move it out of WS and into, like, the county? Which I guess is a bust now that Jimmy Keane didn't win... guess all that ass-kissing Mark did to Van Every and co. even months before the primary was in vain. Huh.

    Of course not, because you "agree their is merit for concern" and that this "this program (may) appear impressive looking especially on the surface" is a backhanded way of saying you do not like him or his program. The program exists on the federal level, but requires local interest to tap into it. Mark Lazarra has provided that. Not you, and certainly not Mr. Wanabe.

    Mark Lazzara certainly gives the appearance he has many associates in the political arena, the media and beyond. It would seem as if many are fond of him. I'm not sure if those associations are as genuine as they seem to appear though. I recommend to those in positions who could seek to oust him or curtail his ways best do some serious pragmatic thinking and well researched homework in order to succeed.

    Here we come to the real reason for the posting, political. Mark Lazarra is supposed to be apolitical, and indeed he has tried very hard to remain so. Others running for office have often tried to use Lazarra's popularity to advance their cause by associating themselves with him. ML is popular with the city blacks because he has helped them, even though Americorps is based in WS. Those here making issue with ML are probably former Keane supporting county union members looking for a fall guy.

    Are you one of his boys? Or possibly his misguided and incapacitated daughter? What afraid daddy might lose the gravy train and the free vehicles? Puss wad.

    When did AmeriCorp become his program? Last time I checked it was a federal program. Maybe if he stopped using Americorp like his own private business people would stop badgering him, you freak.

    Corruption now. Pretty harsh words to someone who sends people around helping poor with their needs, and providing guidance and job opportunity to kids at drift. Also corruption indicates personal enrichment which I do not see. Why bother unless you can steal a few hundred thousand, and this to a guy who makes less than a hundred.

    And also, didn't I hear something about it becoming WNY Americorps because he wanted to move it out of WS and into, like, the county?

    Here we get back to it: politics. Unfortunately, the job has a political overlay. So too does being the director of the Zoo. Maybe she is corrupt because her polar bears died.

    You're right I am suspicious of Lazzara. It won't be because of me or what's posted in here that would be the reason, if it were to happen, that Lazzara might draw scrutiny. Hearsay alone won't do it. No one is that foolish to let that be their reason to question things surrounding him. I'll will reiterate those who might choose to do so best be ready. He almost assuredly has already run to whatever political big guns (no, Paul Clark jokes please) he can use in his defense if he's feeling pinched.

    How did you do that quote without a name thing ?
