Gifts and hypocrisy are the lifeblood of politics --- why should the Skelos-Felder marriage of sorts be any different ? Which is more important, the gifts or the hypocrisy ? Just ask Santa Claus and he'd tell you, "It's the gifts, stupid" !
I was recently reading the "Error 503 Blog" when it was interrupted by something called Room 8 - Gatemouth. This Gatemouth blogger or "Error 503 Blog Interrupter" was discussing a flap over Simcha Felder's caucusing with a Republican majority in the NYS Senate. This was the plan all along; and it had been sealed with an exchange of what the titular head of the GOP, Mitt Romney, would call "GIFTS". There is also the issue of hypocrisy — Gatemouth focuses on many instances of giving free passes to other crossing-over Democrats, who did it for this, that and/or the other reason(s). Perhaps a bigger lump of hypocrisy can be mounded on top of Felder’s new allies in the once-and-future GOP controlled state senate run by Dean Skelos — interestingly this ties-in with the Romney “gifts” thing.
A few out there might still remember how Skelos got behind the installation of an anti-crime video surveillance system that was installed in a significant chunk of the now-Felder Senate District to protect the children from among other terrible things, one of the unspeakable sins. This was all part of the Skelos-Felder-Hikind-Greenfield cluster-courtship. Nobody saw the obvious rank hypocrisy in that --- especially on the level of “protecting the children”. That's because the Skelos-led Republican caucus in the New York State Senate opposes meaningful child-protective legislation, long-referred to as "The Markey Bill," which routinely passes the Democratic controlled Assembly. The community “leaders” in the Felder-Hikind-Greenfield districts also oppose anything that would open the unspeakable sins against children to public scrutiny and proper intervention by law enforcement. All of that hypocrisy reaches scandalous proportions with reported secrecy deals involving the Brooklyn DA, Charles Hynes, another notorious cross-over Democrat. Those are similar to deals that Hynes has with the Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn about the same unspeakable subject.
The Skelos-based hypocrisy also extends to other areas of morals and religious instruction, such as the passage of laws and rules that very well might require the teaching of a broad tolerance of abhorrent lifestyles in Yeshivas and other religious schools. Does Simcha know that he has signed onto that ? More important, does he care, since Skelos must have recently promised even more “gifts” to Simcha than ever before.
Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus, even for the Jews, because it's all about the gifts, stupid.
Will Simcha Felder sponsor legislation to repeal gay marriage?
ReplyDeleteWill Dean Skelos "let" Simcha Felder sponsor legislation to repeal gay marriage?
Will the IDC allow Dean Skelos to hold the GOP "majority" if Simcha Felder sponsors legislation to repeal gay marriage?
Will Ruben Diaz form a new "Amigos" group with Simcha Felder if Simcha Felder gets kicked out of the Republican "majority"?
No way Diaz would pair up with Felder. Felder betrayed the Democratic Party. Felder should be expelled from the Democratic Party.
