Check it out:
GA got a star-turn today in this faux-midnight flier, scattered about the 1st and 4th Wards, then strategically around my home.
Why faux?
Midnight fliers target a candidate, making unverifiable claims or smears on the eve of an election. The aim of a midnight flier is to flip undecided voters, suppress turnout, and in general discourage supporters of a particular candidate. Midnight fliers are done to win elections.
The aim of this was punitive, personal- under the pretext of politics. Retaliation.
To damage a critic.
One who has lifted the curtain on her fictional resume (she made up a company and claimed to work for Fortune 500 clients for 12 years, but a D&B report shows she never did a stitch of business). One who has forwarded the details of her National Jewish Democratic Council hit job to 2 U.S. Senators, Congressional Sponsors, and requested an apology from the NJDC. One who has called out how she's defied her own rabbi's plea not to exploit anti-Semitism for her own political gain. One who has shown her leak of confidential City litigation to H411 will cost taxpayers here millions if our insurance company pulls out. Mason violated the City's cooperation clause with by leaking this to the public.
That's me.
And this was done on Monday early morning so that GA would be running about town today not blog. Nope.
This is the handiwork of the Team Mason: the unmedicated Perry Klaussen (designer), unemployed-newsman turned piss-boy, Lane Bajardi (author), and the dullest tool in the chest, James Barracato (quasi-literate nj.com poster). And of course, the Madame of this Bordello-of-Misfits, Beth Mason.
The calling card is the piece itself.
The graphic flourishes. The photos from Hoboken411.com.The Lane Bajardi script. And Jimmy Barracato, in his puppy-like, tail-wagging desperation craves recognition from his master and dropped enough clues on nj.com- verbiage reprinted on the flier.
The Midnight Mason attack on her critic Jake Stuiver is by comparison, a crude piece of work.
Folks, this kind of trash against critics who exercise their right of Free Speech has to be stopped.
One way to do it is to vote for one of the names listed on the Midnight Mason flier.
One interesting point of note. Mason has not disputed ANYTHING written about her on this blog.
Please vote tomorrow.

2nd Ward: VOTE for Tom Greaney.

Wow! These people are really despicable cowards! Slinking and skulking around at night like some Zombies.
ReplyDeleteYour last comment, GA, is something that struck me before. You have certainly posted several damaging facts about Her Royal Highness...but that's why we never hear a peep of protest out of her as to the content of your posts. They contain FACTS which just so happen to be TRUE! Hopefully the good people of the Second Ward will see fit tomorrow to show Beth Mason the door!
"I love the smell of fliers in the morning. Smells like... desperation. Some day, this war's gonna end."
ReplyDeleteOh me oh my! I was going to vote for reform, but I received this last night, and I've now changed my mind! Here I thought I was casting my vote for lower taxes, more parks and open space, ending corruption, continued improvement of transportation and parking solutions, better efficiency and accountability at City Hall, representation by representative, law-abiding councilpeople, more efficient and less top-heavy public safety departments, proper budget, accounting and financing practices, and representatives who respect and care about all members of the community, not just one loyal faction. But now, I understand that the real issue is that Grafix Avenger has done some blogging that Beth Mason and Lane Bajardi don't like, and that is the basis on which I should cast my vote. I saw a video recently where Councilman Russo was agreeing to take a bribe and saying all kinds of other nasty things about our community, but that's OK because Nancy Pincus has gotten a little wild on the dancefloor with her blog, so screw reform, I'm voting for more corruption!
ReplyDeleteSeriously, folks. This is how stupid we are supposed to be. This is why we are going to win, Deep Uvula's braggadocio notwithstanding. These guys sit in this little echo chamber of theirs and convince themselves everybody cares about what they care about, and that there's enough knee-jerk, low-information voters out there to snooker into their game. Nobody is casting their vote based on anyone's taste or distaste for GA (no offense, GA). This would be pseudo-hilarious if it weren't so pathetic. Credit these clowns for their chutzpah for the way they try to turn their own liabilities into someone else's. No elected official owns the content on GA or any other blog, but Beth Mason still has a lot of questions to answer about Mason411 and the disgusting smears peddled on their with impeccable timing and precision for her political needs.
In any event, sorry GA, this flier is just way too effective, Lane Bajardi is just so mesmerizing. People should vote for four more years of corruption and corruption apologism because your blog has really pissed us off and we should blame the reform slate for it, just like the idiots we're being played for by people who have nothing but contempt for the public.

Oh, Polly did you NAIL it.
ReplyDeleteI just got off the phone w/my nephew in Tempe, Arizona- he reads GA- and he liked what you said as well.
There are some amazing aspects to all this. One is the hubris of the Mason people- not only do they underestimate Hoboken voters, they show contempt for them by foisting such dreck upon them. (Though I believe this was more retaliatory than political).
The other amazing thing is the short-sightedness of this kind of assault on someone who will hit back. There will be a May 11th.
Deep Uvula said that the Russo troops don't think I'm worth the trouble for that reason. But the Mason people are nuts, filled with irrational hate, which lives on until Ricky closes his wallet.
That'll never happen. He's hitched his soul to his wife's ambition.
AT this point, I have to assume Ricky is just as bad as Beth. Why else would he fund her?
ReplyDeleteSorry for your troubles GA.
Ah, thanks Mel. I can't get too worked up about nonsense.
ReplyDeleteI'll return the kindness- off the grid.
Yes, agree about Ricky.
I'm sure that you'll find a creative means of letting Bethy know what you think of her.
