Intro to Niagara Shenanigans & Ceretto's Momentum

I decided to start this blog because I am sick and tired of politicians bending the truth to fit their own personal gains.  This blog will hopefully bring to light issues that the political bigwigs don't want to see come to light.  Mind you I'm an equal opportunity truth seeker.  It doesn't matter whether you are a Democrat or Republican.  If your bending the truth, you will be exposed.  Please tell your friends about Niagara Shenanigans.



Today's Niagara Gazette had an article entitled: "Ceretto earns committee post".  In the article, our esteemed Assemblyman crows about being the ranking member of the Assembly's Committee on Tourism, Parks and Sports Development.  Sounds impressive.  But in typical Ceretto fashion, its more smoke and mirrors.  You see there are only 43 Republicans in the State Assembly out of 150 members.  It's kind of like the Niagara County Legislature with there being only 3 Democrats out of 15 members and Jason Zona saying he's the ranking Democrat on the Refuse Disposal District Board.  Who cares???

Ceretto must think that we are as stupid as he is.  With the Democrats having such an overwhelming majority in the State Assembly, Ceretto's ranking on the committee is meaningless.  You think the Democratic majority really cares about what John Ceretto thinks?  Hardly.

What's also remarkable is that Ceretto continues to tout the great momentum he has created since being in office for two years.  In the two years that Ceretto has been in office there are more people unemployed and more people on some form of public assistance.  In the article, Ceretto talks about the Maid of the Mist's future being secured.  What about the future of the hundreds of Niagara County residents who are out of work or are working 2 jobs and collecting food stamps to survive?  This guy just doesn't get it.

But what do you expect from a career politician who has never held a real job.  I mean think about it.  He was a teacher who left the school system to go work at Tulip Corporation where he was summarily let go.  Hmmm....and this is the guy who will be representing us when the Seneca compact comes up in a couple of years.
