In case you missed it…
Welcome to the,”We are having so much fun, it hurts “, edition. As always, there is much going on. Here is a round up of last week’s news.
NY-29th
Randy Kuhl changes the format of his vaulted Town Hall meetings - less interaction per constituent. We are reminded of the stem cell veto, one of the ways Kuhl is superglued to Bush. D&C editorial board even misses the mark on Tax breaks for Oil companies and, by default, Randy Kuhl.
Meanwhile, here is a nice writeup on Massa and the Responsible Plan, and just before April 1st, we asked if Kuhl was a moderate.
April 1st
There was lots of breaking news on April 1st. RT received a COMIDA grant - a well earned COMIDA grant, we might add. Rottenchester gets demoted, James Lawrence saves the day, skeletons are unearthed in Greece, and Kevin Williams talks about Global Warming. Of course as April 1st funnies go, a little tongue in cheek of what we hope for MCDC. Come on MCDC - we are pulling for you.
But back to our regular programing.
Monroe Community College Selection Process
Let’s start with a timeline, then move to Parinnello’s lofty voice singing : I’ve been working on the railroad - that is rightfully derailed. Bill Smith stands to receive a wonderful MCC pension in a job for which he is not qualified . Of course, the D&C misses an opportunity as well. So does MCC to keep the process open.
Meanwhile, we know the selection process is ugly up close - even people far away and without interest can see it for the ugliness it is.
btp writes two powerful pieces summarizing the ugliness it is. Patronage gone wrong, and the results.
Misc
Metro government? Ladkiddos’ take one and Take two. Robach get a mailer with his name on it. Prisons or Prison Break? Grievous Angel has the details on jobs, population and analysis and talks about how the subprime mess hits home.
Republicans in WNY are desperately seeking candidates, but found one when David Dunning steps out of character and into the Republican party.
There was a big article on Jon Powers. D&C looks back at LBJ.
Apple Inc. hopefully bites off more than they can chew as they go looking for trouble - where there isn’t any.
Finally - root cause anyone? Read and ask if we really want to solve the problems with our society.
