    Todaro is circulating lies; must be election season

    In September 2017, John Bruso received these campaign contributions from the Dirschberger family


    Dirschberger was indicted January 2018. John Bruso gave a personal contribution to the Plymouth Crossroads organization
    on January 24, 2018 in the amount of the Dirschberger family contribution



    Followed by a matching contribution of the John Bruso campaign in the same amount on February 2, 2018


    Yet, Todaro disseminates this libelous statement.


    Mr Todaro, the current legislator John Bruso did make the right decision in the situation.
    You made the wrong decision by disseminating your lies. There's is no integrity in lying to get elected.

    It is not a lie to ask someone to return something. He never says that Bruso hasn't returned it so not seeing where the lie is.

    How do we know that the donation to Crossroads is the Dirschberger money? Circumstantially we can say it is but can you say it definitively? The check is signed by his wife, not him.

    So, with that said, do you believe a retraction of his statement and/or an apology is warranted, as I do?

    If Bruso comes out and says that the money was donated to an organization or returned then I'm sure he will respond appropriately.

    It just shows that Frank Todaro does not do his homework.

    And to think that Lancaster Town GOP Chairman Greg Sojka attempted to make this a hit on John Bruso on this website months ago would indicated that Sojka knew full well that John Bruso made the appropriate move - and then some - with donating the money (and by adding his family money to it).

    If Frank Todaro can't, or is just too lazy to do his homework before sending out this press release then how can he possibly handle the responsibilities of the position his is seeking? And taking shots to get there, right away early in the campaign, resulting in him having egg on his face as a result of this failed hit job.

    Too funny!



    I do agree that Frank Todaro should at the very least issue a retraction, followed by a generous donation to Crossroads to show he really means it.

    Too funny, gorja, just too funny!

    NOT ready for prime time is true as well!

    Hey, more of not doing their homework can be found in an 'attempt' to get past this hit failure on the part of Frank Todaro and Greg Sojka is here - https://www.facebook.com/VoteTodaro/...A&__tn__=kCH-R


    Posted to push the Crossroads donation screwup in the past, this new post making the usual plastic or cliché BS of how Frank Todaro is the best, then "It's time for a change. #opportunity."

    When you click the "#opportunity" the link takes you to a site that has videos (which change daily), one was what looked like an organization that is trying to help African refugees find employment in the Sudan and other help understanding English when in Europe, another of a young woman arguing with her mom complaining about what looks like her pending arranged marriage, another looks like it becomes R-rated in the bedroom of a far off location.

    HA HA HA!!!!

    It's an interesting "change" for this group of Republicans to say the least!

    This post also made it to the Lancaster Republican website, and Frank Todaro's webpage!

    Maybe it's time for Frank Todaro and Greg Sojka to start to do their homework - DUNCES!

    After reading Bruso's August 23, 2019 comments, and reviewing his supporting documentation, I can not tell what is or is not true.

    The kindest thing that I can write of those Bruso comments is that they appear, at the very least, to lack clarity.

    Is the August 23 Bruso statement an exercise in Bruso debate preparation, because he seems to be debating his own staff's version(s) of events?

    Whether Mr. Bruso is being truthful, that is something that only he knows.

    I will say this much. In his August 22, 2019 statement, Frank Todaro said:

    "Survivors everywhere should know that their elected leaders have integrity."
    In his August 22, 2019 statement, Frank Todaro, is standing-up for survivors, who certainly need to know, with clarity, that their elected leaders have integrity. As I have suggested, Bruso's statement appears to lack such clarity.

    Clarity is a synonym for "transparency."

    Harmonize this 2017 Bruso comment to the "Amherst Times..."

    "I am running for this legislative seat to bring honesty and transparency back to our district..."

    ...with the seemingly contradictory Bruso babble of August 23, 2019.

    MAKE THAT X-RATED!

    So, Frank Todaro and Greg Sojka promote X-Rated links to back up their BS?

    Sad.

    It was a Todaro screw up. Sojka’s name should never have been brought up in the ensuing melee.

    At minimum, a retraction should be made by Mr. Todaro.

    A very good question, almost as good as this observation...

Terry McCracken's new position as Secretary to the Authority ranks him top of the food chain. As John Bruso's campaign manager (now the Chairmen of the Democratic Party in Lancaster) requires Bruso to act accordingly. Unfortunately, the Legislature seat is a two year term next year will be here before you know it, and the voters will remember this.

    And Mark, I stand by that opinion. Unlike your position with the current candidate for Supervisor and her "pantry grab."

    This thread is not about that. Stay on task....

    Which one? The Crossroads donations? Or the screw up with the inaccurate link to #opportunity? Or was it not knowing someone would post what could easily be described as an X-Rated video as the type of "change" you are offering?

    Which one, Lee; or is it all of them?

    This just shows again that Frank Todaro does not do his homework.

    He posted it on his Town GOP webpage, together with the link to the inappropriate definition of what the Town GOP wants in their version of "change." He brought himself into it and most likely knew in advance.

    Readers, just make sure your kids are not in the room when you seek to understand what kind of "change" the Town Republican committee has in store.

    Not good, readers, not good at all.

    Do your homework Frank and Greg!
