Legislative race attracks popular school director, Pat O'Malley School Director Pat O'Malley, top vote getter in the last School Board elections, or very close to it, will throw his hat into the ring as a write-in on both the dem {condensed for blah, blah, blah} support for the little extra effort it takes to write his name in.Thevoters need a better choice on the D side and they're going to get one.
Brilliant!! 5 responses, including one by you yourself, and not one "edited for clarity." I suppose it all depends on your definition of clarity, huh?
Now that's interesting ... Pat O'Malley made a bid for a city council seat years ago and couldn't get that ... how the hell is he going to pull this off? I know and like Pat O'Malley ... but I just don't see it!

Gee, more insightful information from the same people that brought you "Chris Doherty is leaving for Harrisburg" and "Sam Patilla will own Scranton". This could be yet more wishful thinking courtesy of a bunch of clowns who have backed themselves into a corner and as a result have no one to support.
Anyway, my opinion is that there is a much lower standard to qualifiy and get elected to a School Board seat. No offense intended to Mr O'Malley (who I don't know), but we've seen some people gain Board seats who probably aren't qualified to become a Notary Public, let alone have what it takes to succeed in higher office.

RE: Legislative race attracks popular school director, Pat O'Malley Joe, you ask what has Pat O'Malley done against the people-- he has just run for a four year school board seat--he had parties-took money from people to get elected in this campaign--to me that would be doing a hell of a lot against the people who just elected him if he runs for state rep.--What ever happened to morals and ethics--does no one care about that anymore--sure Murphy is no good--but O'Malley would truly be using the people for his own benefit and to me that speaks of his character or I should say lack of--so Joe in answer to your question-I see plenty wrong with O'malley and his running would be against the people because if he truly cared about the people and not himself he would sit his rear at that school director chair and serve the people he said he would represent when he ran for school dirtector--as I stated before people who get elected to an office should be made to stay there-- I do not understand promoting something that is not sincere and honest to the people--and having Pat leave his school director job is not right--that in MY OPINION would be dead wrong and against the people who JUST elected him to the school board-- how can you just forget that?I know I won't-- I'd vote Jim Williams in any day--because he is honest--and that is a great quality to have around here.
Yes, Pat O'Malley isn't for the people, as decided by the only person that apparently can speak for the people, the queen of the people herself, Fay Franus.
Note to Ms Franus: You speak for the 'PERSON' not the 'PEOPLE'. Stop pretending to represent others and just speak for yourself. Oh, and for the record...
...Janet Evans, in one of her campaigns, took money from Bob Mellow ...Janet Evans used her position on the School Board to get a full-time teaching position
So according to your very own little tirade, Ms Evans does not meet the definition of being "for the people".

Yes she was ... but you sure as hell will never have Fay speak a word against the queen of DD ... it amazes me that they have so many rules and restrictions for other political figures ... but little queen Janut can do anything she damn well pleases ... that post just goes to further prove everything that we have been saying here at PD ... thank you Fay for helping prove our point ... and hell you never even had to post one time here ....
Don't they amaze you .... they sure as hell amaze me!

You know, I really do want to believe that people are smart. I want to give others the benefit of the doubt. But time and time again one encounters people like Fay, Les, etc. who you know mean well, but just seem incapable to crossing the intellectual threshold between blind follower and independent thinker. Utill they do, they are forever relegated to the role of Pilchesky cannon-ball. Kinda sad when your own leader refers to you as a "bottom-feeder" but yet you keep towing the line.

::: ... Board seats who probably aren't qualified to become a Notary Public, ... ::::
On behalf of Notaries Public everywhere, I resent that statement. I have my own handy-dandy stamp and even know the secret (and I'll have you know extremely intricate) Notary Public handshake. Although joe and his band of intellectually challenged gnomes would probably refer to me as a notary republic.
I apologize to all the Notaries Public (and I didn't know that was the plural....see you learn something new every day) out there for implying that what they do is unimportant or lacking in basic qualifications. I have nothing but the utmost respect for those hardworking individuals who fight the battle for properly witnessed documents on a daily basis.
No back to the 'Attracks' thread...
