Unfortunately, he chose to go down DECEPTION street fully aware he was headed in the wrong direction, apparently his moral compass is broken.
We believe it is safe to say that Northampton County Executive John Stoffa was already near the sale of Gracedale when he sat with us in the 911 Building, where he ate Maryann's home made goodies and told us straight out "The only way to save Gracedale is to get the names".
We have to ask: how exactly did he know that was the only way? Well, the only answer that makes sense to us is that his decision was already made... got it! Do you see how looking back in time allows all the pieces of the puzzle to fall into place?
In our opinion, it is very possible that he already had a deal worked out. We suspect that he met with us to stay on our good side, deviously believing he could dupe us because never and a day did he envision our resolve. We all know today that was a BIG MISTAKE for John. It open more than a can of worms - it opened a can of truth which exposed him for all of the duplicitous works he had done, and was planning to do.
He chose to lie because in his mind he had it all figured out, and there was no possible way we would ever get the necessary 19,600+ names necessary for the referendum question to be placed on the ballot. Instead we mobilized to win, and collected the welcomed signatures of 23,000+.
The beauty of it was that John thought it was all over in late November into December, because the nonsensical ignoramus came back to his benefactor time and time again with supposedly good news (so he thought it was), that we had stagnated - stuck they are at 10,000. With the thanksgiving holiday, and the Christmas and new year festivities coming up - no one was working (again - so they thought).
But COAF (who John thought were not so smart) had a different plan. We decided to hold all the incoming petitions until January, and in that month we came in with 13,000+ signatures...Bernie's head began to spin, and spin.
Stoffa's unbelief can still be seen in his face.
The irony is that if John would have done the right thing, he would have been re-elected without effort. Instead, he's forced to step down because a monkey in a suit will beat him in the upcoming election - hands down!
If Stoffa could do it all over again, there are many things he would do differently we're sure...like - not underestimating the intelligence and resolve of the PEOPLE. Those two are really important John. You can trust us on that, we never lied to you!!! But lying? he would probably make that mistake again...
...cause history tells us - he's not so smart!
Northampton County owes a debt of gratitude to all of you who sacrificed for all of us. Thank you and a "dedicated to you" Happy Thanksgiving day.
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU GUYS!!!! We will be talking about you in political circles for many years to come. And keep using that dude O'Hare as a pinata because you will never miss when you swing at him.
ReplyDeleteSTOFFA HAD GRACEDALE SOLD THE CONTRACT WAS SIGNED SEALED AND DELIVERED BEFORE THE ELECTION THEY WERE HOPING THE SIGNATURES DID NOT COME IN.THE DAY AFTER THE ELECTION IT WOULD HAVE BEEN PRIVATE. WORD ON THE STREET IS THAT THERE MAY HAVE BEEN A STOCK OPTION FOR STOFFA AND ANGLE IN THE DEAL. ANGLE WANTED TO GET RID OF THE UNION. STOFFA WANTED THE MONEY FOR HIS PET PROJECTS.aNGLE SAID ON BUSSINESS MATTERS GRACEDALE NEEDED 6 MILLION FROM THE COUNTY TO OPERATE THIS YEAR. IT SEEMS THAT 3 MILLION IS WHAT WAS NEEDED. THE MANAGEMENT COMPANY ALONG WITH THE UNION HAS BEEN CUTTING COSTS. I THANK THE UNION FOR ALL THE WORK TO KEEP HER. GRACEDALE WILL BE THERE FOR THE ONES THAT NEED HER.
ReplyDeleteIs Bernie O'Hard the Turd working for Mayor Callaham ?
ReplyDeleteThis whole situation is obviously Bernie O'Hare's fault, word on the street is Stoffa will do whatever he tells him to do.
ReplyDeleteThat man is a menace. Thank God for all you fine people who are doing God's work in ending his reign of terror.
There is a rumor floating around that Bernie O'Hare is working as a bus driver for the Easton Coach company. I dug around and found out Callahan got him the job, and now owns his blog. I guess Angle ran out of cash, and O'Hare has to actually work.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of Mayor Callahan. I understand that he attempted to get the County Exec pay raised to $100,000.00. Did Council raise it for him, or will he have to go back to selling Cialis ?
ReplyDeleteWord has it Callahan had Bethlehem county council Representative Ken Kraft try to get the pay increased but it failed.
ReplyDeleteThe comment at 3:15 sounjd slike it is from Callahan campaign manager and O'Hare coinfidant Jim Hickey.
Also, Stoffa thought he copuld play everyone. He has always done that. He promised the dump Gracedale folks he was with them, and behind their backs he promised the save Gracedale folks he needed their help. The man has no integrity and never has. The worst county excutive the county ever had.
The turd bernie ohare is try for a part on the honeymooners. Rember what he said in counsel I do not care what you say about me, but john stoffa and mark steward are honorable men. stoffa is the biggest disdgrace in northampton county.
ReplyDeleteThe Hairy One WORKING? Fat chance. He'd bankrupt any company by using up all their toilet paper on his butt.
ReplyDeleteDID YOU EVER SEE THE HAIRY ONE DRIVE? All i can say is stay off the sidewalks.
