Vintage Kurta

When it comes to civic activism, First Ward City Council challenger Eric Kurta is no Timmy-Come-Lately.

You know, Kurta's not the kind of candidate that mouths off about a particular issue at election time (like blaming the mayor for the governor's pulling Connors School renovations funding) when he's NEVER gone to a single BoE meeting to advocate for the children he's discovered in his Ward.

Like this guy:

Oops,  wrong picture!

I hate when I do that.

I meant to post this:


This is the guy who needed a map to find Connors School until he turned it into a campaign issue, who  didn't get  a single fact right on his website,  who didn't attend a single School Board meeting BEFORE  becoming a candidate (and no one's seen him there since).

No, Kurta's no Timmy-Come-Lately to School Board issues.  

GA spotted him back in April 2010 at a BoE meeting- months BEFORE he decided to run for office.

But in fact, Kurta's been on top of School Board issues for YEARS.  Check out this Jersey Journal article from 1992:

What was it Timmy's mom said about "talking the talk"and "walking the walk"?

OK, here's one more vintage Kurta from 1995... 

I'm posting this for the ladies... *wink*

  1. That's not the best Wiley Coyote shot. I have some footage of him in head banging RATT listening days at a Hoboken BoE meeting.

    It's a secret weapon and I'm holding on to it for later. In the mean time, people should be signing up to be enlisted in the army of door knockers and phone call doers.

    It's time to get Eric Kurta and his long time accomplishments out to the people so they know EXACTLY who he is. There's just no excuse not to.

    NONE.

    Hanging out and showing up for a party later does not mean you did what needed to be done.

    Please DO IT!

  2. Hmmm... maybe you can pass those pics on.

    Though I must tell you from this gal's point-of-view, the RATT look is not happening... the more coiffed Kurta w/the 3 hoop earrings will definitely score him more votes with the ladies.

    And that's what it's all about!
