More Politics At and IN Town Hall?

I mean, they actually went INSIDE Town Hall and protested Buerkle.

Why weren't these negative, political people stopped and censured!?!?

Why aren't letters written about them and unkind words spoken about them?

I commented on this one on the website because I found it highly hypocritical - one of the comments in the article.

They were protesting Buerkle because of her voting record and although she's not a registered member of the Tea Party - her vote against raising the debt ceiling aligns her with their politics.

....And the 90-something Democrats that voted right along with her against the debt ceiling must be aligned with Tea Party politics as well.

...And let's not forget in 2006 when EVERY SINGLE DEMOCRAT VOTED AGAINST RAISING THE DEBT CEILING because.....they must be aligned with Tea Party politics.

Obviously. They might have even invented it!

Why aren't they protesting out in front of their own Town Hall in Brighton?

It can't have anything to do with politics and wanting Republican Buerkle out and Democrat Maffei in. No. Nothing to do with politics at all.

Glad you folks at Town Hall are very choosey about what politics you allow and what politics you don't allow inside those walls. Great letter in the IPost too.
I can't wait to see the letter next week from this person scolding those political protestors who went into Town Hall and protested Buerkle. I mean, given the political climate today, electing a new Congressperson every two years is just disruptive and counter productive. Buerkle spent one year to really understand the job and then she must spend the second year campaigning to keep that job and in the end is unable to accomplish what she campaigned to do. If you are like this letter writer, and you think it is refreshing to live in a community where members of opposing political parties will put aside politics and cooperate with each other for the benefit of the voters, and, if you also agree that electionsevery two years for Congress members are needlessly expensive and time-consuming, then go to the polls and vote for cooperation and common sense.....right?
I bet she wants us to vote for Buerkle because....you know....it's not about politics. It's about what she....er...we want, and it's about moving the town and country forward with people who think and vote just like me!

Priceless! So now we have gone from trying to "control the conversation" to "controlling the election."

Or I should say "certain" elections.

You know what's kind of funny about this whole cross endorsement thingy? Mary Joyce, Debbie and Paul ran against Heyman, Bello and Evans 2 years ago campaigning against them on issues that Stephanie and John were part of.

Perticone was the main player in the apprenticeship deal. Hope that isn't going to come around again if he is re-elected another 4 years.

The hypocrisy of it all.

Listen to me being political. Shame, shame...

Monroe Piping does a lot of work for the town and they also sponsored the July 4th event, as well as Local 13.

Just sayin'.......

RSM gave to MJD's campaign....when's that 6 month deferment up? They haven't done diddly all summer there besides rip down the old restaurant finally. Hope a new road isn't in the future any time soon.

Have they been before the planning board to ask for another 6 month deferment yet?

Where do you want him to go, and why?

I could be wrong but I assume the reason they protested here in Irondequoit and not in Brighton is because Buerkle's local office is there at town hall not in brighton?

I figured that was why....they are protesting Buerkle and not the votes against raising the debt ceiling.

Apparently they are just being political.

....And it was allowed in Town Hall.
