He said the Conservative committee will no longer work with Buchanan in elections but would still work with Republican candidates on endorsements.
Perhaps they WILL work with Gerard Parisi. hmmmmm
And papa, I think that going after Mr.Littlefield would not be in the best interest of this conserv party. He showed his true conservative values by being an advocate of the Metroplex audit. That was how I first even heard of him. An admirable move on his part, wouldn't you say? I would have hoped to see this present conserv committee seeking Mr. Littlefields support. And from what he has written here, he states, and in his own words, that he was just a 'foot soldier' FOR the conserv ideology. Don't bite off your noses to spite your faces. Mr. Littlefield seems to be pretty respected in the area with his conservative ideals.

Yea, you're probably right bumble. He didnt lie about where the $ came from. He just avoided the question and if I had to guess, he probably wasn't 100% informed by Ms Rhinesmith. Personally, I welcome his input.
Brad Littlefield has worked tirelessly for the people to stop Metrograft fraud and find cuts in the pork in the bloated County budget. He is a real Conservative leader. It's time for the new Conservative treasurer to file his reports 10 months too late.
I guess the treasurer resigned and didn't file whatever reports she was suppose to- so they appointed a new treasurer and he has to get up to speed and file.
I'm really not trying to start an argument - just questioning.
If I don't get a timewarner bill in the mail, the bill is still due, on time - or I get shut off. I know there's a monthly bill to be paid - the same way the leadership must have known there were reports to be filed. Why didn't the leadership stand up (if this is true) and tell the treasurer to file them on time? They knew they were due to the State, or should have.
You're really starting to make yourself look like a half wit at best with your most recent posts. You stated that "designating petitions were overwhelmingly collected by registered Democrats". That is a complete lie. Why do you continously post false information that is easily verified? The only place that Democrats carried Conservative Petitions were in District 3, no where else. Their candidate received the endorsement in that District and therefore they circulated petitions in that District because they had to gather signatures there anyways. This has been a practice for decades with BOTH repubs and dems! The entire City, town of Rotterdam and Princetown were carried by CONSERVATIVES! 45 petitions were turned in from District 3 and 75 from the other areas in the County. So your statement in bold print was a complete LIE! The facts show the direct opposite. Why do you continue to lie?
You stated that you filed a F.O.I.L. for the financial reports since January 2008. The July periodical financial report was filed in hard copy form to the Schenectady County Board of Elections on September 8th. Yes it was late. The Treasurer resigned and did not file the reports that she was required to do so. She is also the only person registered with the State who can file a financial report. If you honestly filed a foil, then you either got a copy of the report and are lying once again or someone at the board made a mistake and did not give you the material you asked for. A new Treasurer was just elected and all reports will be filed shortly.
Your rant on the Schdy Police union and its most recent contract negotitions is confusing at best. If the Conservative Party was in bed with the Dems like you continuously say, then the Dems would give the police a long term contract not make them go to arbitration where the can only get a two year award and spend tens of thousands of union dues dollars to get that two year award. For you to state otherwise just proves how completely clueless you really are.
Here is a good example for you so you can understand a little better: Sch'dy Firemen get a five year contract with 4% raises each year. The Sch'dy Police go into negotiations and ask to get exactly the same as what the City just gave the firemen. The City won't do it and insist on going to arbitration where the union has to spend upwards to $100,000. You somehow take that as the Dems being in bed with the Conservative Party???? Wow, you're confused.
Another lie you posted, the police union keeps going back to arbitration year after year...... No they have not! Another example of you lying. The union has gone to arbitration twice in the last 20 years........
Another fine example of you lying is your continuous suggestion that the Conservative Party is in bed with the Dems, all you have to do is look at the endorsements..... OK, lets look at last years endorsements: Town of Niskayuna- the entire Republican slate; Town of Glenville- entire Republican slate including both Repub County Legislators; The Republicans ran three candidates in the City of Schdy and all three were endorsed; Town of Duanesburg- the entire Republican slate were endorsed- Town of Princetown- the entire Repub slate were endorsed. The only place that any Dems were endorsed was in the Town of Rotterdam. Your political partner, Ms Rhinesmith pushed very hard for the Conservative Party to endorse Cooke which it did. The Conservative Party also endorsed Della Villa and Longo. The Repubs endorsed a Dem to run in Denny (imagine that). We did not endorse Denny.
Now, if what you said was true, the Dem controlled Conservative Party endorsed all those Reps last year????? Give me a break!!! The simple fact is that 80% of the endorsements went to the Republicans and you are trying to make it look like something completely different.
And all that b.s. about districts being one by one vote. Of course that happens in minor parties. There are several districts that have less then 5 members in them....... Why don't you talk about the districts that you lost by double-digits? How about providing the true voting numbers? How many Conservatives voted for the current leadership and how many voted for your candidates? It was a landslide. You made your pitch to the party and they simply rejected nearly every one of your candidates.
One last thing, stop hiding the truth of where the money came from that financed your challenge. Please answer these very simple questions: 1) Who paid Spargo several thousands of dollars. (est. $15,000) 2) Who paid for the postage for the 6 county wide mailings ($5,000) 3) Who paid for the printing of 10,000 pieces that were mailed out ($10,000) 4) Who paid for the thousands of robocalls? ($1,000) 5) who paid for the thousands of door hangers? ($2,000)
We are not stupid and the truth will be found out. If you are the truthful and upfront person that you say you are then you shouldn't have a problem answering those simple questions. Or are you just part of the criminal conspiracy of not reporting where these funds came from according to the Election Laws of NYS? Which is it?
I don't know who you are but I want to have a beer with you. I am glad someone took the time to do a little research and put the FACTS out there. I didn't realize that the PBA has only gone to arbitration twice in the last 2 decades and I didn't know that they asked for what the firemen got. If Conservatives endorsed all the KRATZ like the Independence Party did, they may not have had to spend $100,000 to kick the city's a@#. I think it is the Independence Party that endorses Democrats 95% of the time. There was an issue created in the Town of Rotterdam and some Republicans were not endorsed... Oh well!
Thanks again SCCP.
I'll meet ya at Dunzy's at 9:45 for a beer. It's on me.
SCCP, it is unfortunate that your post should spew such venom at Mr. Littlefield. Mr. Littlefield does not deserve name calling. He has always been eloquent and respectful in his posts displaying nothing but class. In my assessment, Mr.Littlefield appears to be the most conservative than anyone else. He was the only one who single handedly forced an audit of the Metroplex 'for the taxpayers'. Now, being that we live in an almost saturated blue state, we may not get the true results.
Mr. Littlefield seems too nice and eloquent and classy to belong to any of these degenerate political parties.

I dont know what color the sky is in your world, but Mr. Littlefield fell under Kellys spell. Judging from his recent post he is becoming very much like her. Perhaps it is perfume, osmosis or some other phenomenon that is clouding his mind

Perhaps that is because the firemen aren't corrupt like the police dept. Maybe someone could tell us the last time there was a smear involving the fire dept. I don't know, maybe there has been. I just don't remember. Does anyone else? Help us out here.

I totally disagree with you. Your issue appears to be with Ms. Rhinesmith clearly not with Mr. Littlefield. Mr. Littlefield clearly has his opinions. But he appears to be a true conservative which has turned out to be his only sin by your standards.
And how did Ms. Rhinesmith get to be on the conservs executive board in the past?

That is a great question, She was never involved at all, until a couple years ago. Someone else on here will have to enlighten us on that and on how well it worked out for them

What is a commisioner badge??????????
