Marty Golden's blockage of the "certification" of Arnaldo Ferraro as the duly elected KCRP Chairman actually means Craig Eaton continues as the Brooklyn GOP Chairman beyond his term, because Chairman Eaton is NOT "Functus Officio"
Craig Eaton's last official act should have been to complete the transition of his leadership to Arnaldo Ferraro --- the actions of the State Senator Martin Golden - Ted Ghorra cabal at the NYC Board of Elections and in court have had the effect of extending the Chairmanship of Craig Eaton until the selection of the new Brooklyn GOP Chairman is "certified"
It looks like Craig Eaton has some other cards to play in this game....
One of the things that "Chairman" Eaton might do is re-convene the County Committee of the KCRP to report on what has happened since the convention elected Arnaldo Ferrao and for additional matters related to the election of Arnaldo Ferraro. After such matters have been conducted by the County Committee, a new certification of the election of Arnaldo Feraro might be submitted to the BOE; and a motion made to the court that the current pending matter should be dismissed.because the case is moot.Maybe there will be an announcement about some or all of this at the "official" KCRP Christmas/Holiday Party.
Gail, why do you just keep missing it? Marty Golden keeps introducing Ted Ghorra as the new Chairman of the Brooklyn GOP. Until somebody stops Senator Golden from doing that, it almost doesn't matter what Eaton and Ferraro do, and maybe even the court. It's like Jerry Kassar keeps saying, if the Republican leaders keep coming to Ghorra's meetings that's all that matters.
ReplyDeleteThat is because almost everyone knows that Arnaldo and Lucretia are loose cannons that can't be trusted. No one--even Craig supporters--wants to have anything to do with them.
ReplyDeleteGale, what do you make of Eaton and Kassar endorsing the same candidate once again? They were both in the same exact press release even!
ReplyDeleteMaybe they both like Rubio.
ReplyDeleteGale, I heard some really interesting things tonight:
ReplyDeletea) Golden is still a moron;
b) He invited all is constituents to his party last night, at the one and only Bay Ridge Manor, but didnt use the Big Room on the first floor, but used the small room in the basement. I guess he was afraid nobody would show up and he wanted to make it look crowded. I hear it was a dismal attendance and they were all fighting over the food....as we always said...give them free food and they will come.
c) Before the meeting there was an Exec Comm mtg where Ghorra didnt even show up, and there were only three people there. One was James McClelland, the infamous "Robo Call" guy who asked for the "official proxies". I hear he is in a stew with the Queens GOP...something about him believing he would be a vice chair but they threw him under the robo call machine - I meant, bus. - I wonder if Kassar will write about this meeting of three that Ghorra had? Sounds like gang of three - Silver, Skelos...Golden?
They used the big room. Someone as usual is feeding you bad information to make you look like you do no know basic facts. Do not trust this person.
ReplyDeletePoster at 9:31 is right. Golden had huge crowd. And a lot of food.

ReplyDeleteTO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 9:31 PM"
No doubt, you are referring to the comment by "Anonymous said... at 9:14 PM" right above yours. That person didn't feed me any good, bad or indifferent information about anything; they made an anonymous comment in a thread on my blog >>> exactly like you have done it.
If I post an article on this blog or make a comment under my name and indicate that it is from a third party source, them arguably, I'm being fed. However, what you said above is a mis-characterization of the dynamic of posting the anonymous comments on this blog.
What is with Eaton continuing to support the same candidates Kassar does. Here was yet another chance for Eaton to turn the tables, and Eaton once again follows Kassar. Imitation must the sincerest form of flattery is the only way i can explain it.
ReplyDeleteI wish I had a catering hall where I could serve endless trays of rubber chicken and turn my full buff into lots of cooked dollars from all sorts of people. It's a win win and nobody gets hurt. Even better nobody can question my generosity my politics or mind my business.
ReplyDeleteI wasn't there but I'm guessing Lucretia's party had about ten people half of whom were there to pick up checks for working on another one of her disastrous campaigns.
ReplyDeleteI was at the Executive Committee meeting. It was well attended. If you do not believe me ask Carl Caller he was also there.
ReplyDeleteUseless
ReplyDeleteI thought you said this announcement was important.
ReplyDeleteIs Craig the chairman again or was Craig always the KCRP chairman?
ReplyDeletePOINT OF INFORMATION: THE "IT'S SIMPLE AND IT'S COMPLICATED" EDITION
ReplyDeleteAFTER PRIMARY DAY CRAIG EATON CONTINUED AS CHAIRMAN WITH "LIMITED POWERS" -- TO CONVENE THE KCRP CONVENTION AND TO TURN MATTERS OVER TO THE CONVENTION CHAIRMAN WHOSE POWERS ARE LIMITED TO CONDUCTING THE AFFAIRS OF THE CONVENTION, AND THEN TO THE NEWLY ELECTED KCRP CHAIRMAN
ALL OF THAT WAS DONE, AND WITH THE ELECTION OF ARNALDO FERRARO AS KCRP CHAIRMAN FOR THE NEXT TERM, CRAIG EATON WAS APPARENTLY "FUCTUS OFFICIO" -- BECAUSE HIS DUTIES WERE COMPLETED UPON ARNALDO FERRARO'S BECOMING THE NEW CHAIRMAN OF THE BROOKLYN GOP AND A CERTIFICATION OF THAT WAS FILED AT THE BOARD OF ELECTIONS -- IN THE CURRENT LITIGATION, EATON'S POSITION IS THAT ALL OF THAT WAS FAIT ACCOMPLI
HOWEVER, BECAUSE ANOTHER CERTIFICATION WAS FILED ON BEHALF OF A COMPETING PRETENDER KCRP CHAIRMAN [WHICH CERTIFICATION IS FRAUDULENT IN ALMOST ALL RESPECTS] -- THE BOARD OF ELECTIONS REFUSED TO RECOGNIZE EITHER THE PROPER KCRP CERTIFICATION OF ARNALDO FERRARO [OR THE SWAG CERTIFICATION FILED ON BEHALF OF TED GHORRA] AS VALID -- AND THE INSTANT LITIGATION CONCERNING THE KCRP LEADERSHIP ENSUED IN THE NYS SUPREME COURT FOR KINGS COUNTY
Under various principles governing the management of corporate entities and elected boards and bodies with chairmen, Mr. Craig Eaton retains such necessary authority to handle any emergent matters during the pendency of all BOE or Supreme Court connected to the transfer of the chairmanship to the properly elected successor to Mr. Eaton -- Arnaldo Ferraro.
The Brooklyn Party owes me money. Are you saying I should be going after Craig not Arnaldo. Craig claimed last year they had none and the balance they are reporting on their filings is under $200. Who is going to be held responsible now?
ReplyDeleteSounds like a few bottles of ginger ale is has the party treasurer going bust
ReplyDeleteRESPONSE: THE "SILLY PEOPLE AND SILLY TALK" EDITION
ReplyDeleteWHAT THE HECK ARE THE PEOPLE SAYING IN THOSE LAST COUPLE OF COMMENTS ???
"The Brooklyn Party owes me money...." Really, for what ??? --- What makes you think you can go after anybody like Craig, Arnaldo or even Ted for what you think you're owed ??? --- Oh, that's right, ANYBODY CAN GO INTO COURT ABOUT ANYTHING nowadays.
".... Who is going to be held responsible now?" What kind of question is that ??? Who was ever held responsible for anything in the Brooklyn GOP --- especially for $$$$$ ???
ReplyDeleteGale,
Last time you went to the Golden party, you raved about the shrimp. This time there are mixed reviews. We know you got your robocall invitation - Did you go? If so, give your readers the proper update.
RESPONSE: THE "BUSY, BUSY, BUSY GALEWYN MASSEY HOLIDAY SEASON" EDITION
ReplyDeleteYes, I did get the robocall.... No, I didn't go.... My dance card was full.... Plus, I was still-icing down from my "bowling" at the YRs' bowling party the week before....
You probably were the youngest Republican there except for the usual five people usually showing up.
ReplyDeleteaccording to the bi laws George Clark is now the county chair
ReplyDeleteRESPONSE: THE "I KNOW WHO YOU ARE AND WHERE YOU LIVE" EDITION
ReplyDeleteTHE LONG AGO AND FAR AWAY CONTINGENT IS HEARD FROM
THE ATTEMPT AT HUMOR ABOVE IS MOST LIKELY COMING FROM SOMEBODY WHO WAS THROWING HIS OWN "PERSONAL" CHRISTMAS COUNTER-PARTY IN A W-BURG NIGHTSPOT AT THE SAME TIME AS THE FERRARO "OFFICIAL" BROOKLYN GOP PARTY WAS GOING ON IN B-HURST
Of course the mention of "George Clark" is a give away that the person is quite old..... Also, they should know that, if any such clause existed in the "bi laws" of the Brooklyn GOP, such a rule would certainly be reanimating Johnny Crews and restoring HIM to his place as long-time Brooklyn GOP leader.
Red Ant will always be my County Leader.
ReplyDeleteFred Pantaleone. Is that red ant?
