Since we all can agree that he has done a great job in the past 4 years, we might as well look forward to Mayor McCarthy's next 4 years. During those 4 years, we will see Mohawk Harbor completed, more positive development projects along the Erie Boulevard, Lower State Street and Broadway corridors as well as some exciting new proposals to spread the RENAISSANCE to all the neighborhoods.

What has he done in the past 4 years, dV??????
What has he done for the tax base? What has he done for the tax BILLS of the HOMEOWNERS? What has he done for home values? What has he done to bring assessment values in line with market values? What has he done for home sales? What has he done for home sale prices? What has he done for having snow plowed back to the curb? What has he done for insuring that his police chief lives IN the city and pays the city taxes? What has he done to remove the burden of the homeowners paying the taxes of Galesi and the rest of the billionaires? What has he done to lower taxes on the homeowners? What has he done to stop homeowners from fleeing the city? What has he done to stop homeowners from putting their homes up for sale What has he done so houses won't take two years to sell? What has he done to enforce the recycling laws in the city? What has he done to take care of the ever increasing number of city owned properties? What has he done to enforce the sidewalk shoveling laws on private properties? Why did he leave sidewalks unshoveled on most of the city owned residential properties?
If he has done such a wonderful job, why do you REFUSE to own OR rent IN the city?????
Huh? The COWARD DV will NOT answer that one.
The coward DV will NOT answer ANY of the above questions.
And can you tell us WHEN McCarthy will put an end to forcing the homeowners give their tax money (via handouts and tax exemptions) to the private developers who are filthy rich?
Optimists close their eyes and pretend problems are non existent. Better to have open eyes, see the truths, acknowledge the negatives, and speak up for the people rather than the politicos and their rich cronies.

Tax and spend.
Erie Blvd between GE and State will not fill up with businesses unless they are more corporate welfare queens.

There's no one who can doubt it now So let's tell the world about it now Happy days are here again Your cares and troubles are gone; There'll be no more from now on Happy days are here again The skies above are clear again Let us sing a song of cheer again Happy days are here again

Happy days for the residents of the city knowing that DV will NEVER live IN the city.

What can you expect from a 50+ year old baby boy who can't live like a normal, independent, self-sufficient adult.

DVOR must have been drinking last night, I opted for some new lyrics.
Election days are here again The choice for them is crap oh man Let the poor revolt and disband the sham Election days are here again
Altogether we’ll rout them from their stools There’s no one who can doubt they’re tools So see the crooks to jail and back to the rules Happy days we’d sing like fools
The taxes here are just too high And selling at all just won’t fly Maybe walking out will be what I try Are Happy days gone oh why
Will this solve your fears and troubles so This might be so if you see them go Maybe if Vince would give it a go Happy days can come again
If we fail this year to kick the dim I’d hate to see the city of sin All full of bars and games to win Happy days may never come

Oh cool, song parodies!! I love them. Very clever.
Here's one that some friends made up once. They even recorded it.
Downtown Words by: Graham Bonnet w/apologies to Tony Hatch
When you've got connections To the Democrat Party You can get free dough downtown Then you've no worries, and the truth you can bury Seems to help, I know, downtown
Just listen to the jingle of the payoffs in the city Vagrants on the sidewalk where the urine stains aint pretty TaxPAYERS lose!
The Plex has great power there They can hide all of the troubles, pretend that they care and be Downtown, Millionaires waiting for Downtown, Condos next to the sewer, Downtown, Metroplex schilling for (Downtown)
Shift all the taxes To the rest of the town Dog and Pony shows downtown Maybe you know Some politicians to go to When the banks are closed downtown
listen to the rhythm of a gentle assault rifle We'll be dodgin' bullets, in the street in front of Bombers
Grab your wallet again
Taxbreaks are much bigger there They can hide all of the troubles, pretend that they care and be Downtown know how to grease the wheel, Downtown, Our leaders know how to steal, Downtown, Metroplex runs the whole dealllll (Downtown downtown)
"I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked, dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry fix,"
First: I wasn't drinking. Not that it is anyone's business if I was.
Second: I was very lucid when I posted that Mayor McCarthy's first term has been great for the city and, indeed, Happy Days ARE Here Again.
Third: Van Morrison isn't just quaint. He is an incredibly gifted artist who can craft word and music to convey the deepest feelings of many. And many folks think that the blithering, sniveling nayboobs are a bunch of god dam fools --- particularly "you know who." blah, blah, blah... all cheap talk but no action ... same old lies and sh*t, just a different day from "you know who."
Well they say you can't shut up a god damn fool Ain't no exception to the rule It's blah, blah, blah, blah Just like a nursery rhyme Talk is cheap almost all the time Alright
Yes, talk is cheap Almost all the time

The mayor's first term has --Caused a MASSIVE reduction in the city's tax base --Caused property values to fall so very much that the city of Schenectady is the second highest over-assessed municipality in the whole state of New York --Caused the taxes to be the highest around and going higher.
DV, would you care to explain how this is "great" ?????? Oh, yeah, you won't respond to those FACTS because they would prove that the mayor is a big failure.
