Well, you know they say the most dangerous place in DC is between Chuck and a Microphone
Does this shit every year, yells out "Thank you for coming"
There were 2 angry mobs by the Scobee and Patrick's pub lots waiting for the mayor.
The cops took some snow shovels and 2 cooler's of snowballs away from them and people on the roofs
The queens machine has grown more vicious since Ex marine dem boss tom manton was the leader
I dont think their are any veterans left in the queens Democratic machine . Am i wrong?
the machine is run by family dynasties, corrupt lobbyists and and most of the money comes from lobbyist clients and most of the troops in rare contested races come from the gay agenda.
veterans are usually too independent for the machine
the biggest agressive takedowns from the dem machine have been against veterans
Frank Padavan,Monseratte and Serph Maltese. and many of the antimachine dem candidates in 2010 were veterans sasson, messner,forcina,Comaianni. if you want to get elected in queens with the support of the machine you need to either be born into a family dynasty, or be a social progressive activest or a party kiss ass. endowments that veterans usually dont have.

To sum up what you just said real fast.
Irish, Italian and Jewish favoritism/nepotism. If you're not part of it, YOU'RE FUCKED.
Virtue is the enemy of these 3 groups and only with virtue can these oppressive hogs be dethroned.

What? How about retelling a story that's a) related to what's going on here, and b) from this century. It's summer, and Patrick's has been gone for 5-6 years. WTF are you talking about?
when chucky approached my side of the parade route at liitle neck/douglaston, i asked him what he was doing here TODAY ?
he was puzzled for a response!
i retorted with ,"this is not Sunday"
We are taught that hot air rises. You would think that Chuckie would be floating over the parade but all that crap inside that bloated politician is apparently acting as ballast!!!
Forget this.. how about that tool Devon O'Conner (whose trying to create a second Whitestone Civic) marching in the Whitestone Parade today with Halloran instead of his Welcome To Whitestone van.. do i see a possible failed political run in his future?
And where was the Boro Pres today.. if Bloomturd can make it from Whitestone to Little Neck I'm sure Helen Marshall could have too
Deven is a young kid who is being attacked by Tony avella because he wants to partcipate in civic service
sorry tony you and your absent district leader dont run whitestone
halloran for state senate 2012
Devon is in bed with the Vallones.
comptroller john liu was thanking the parade watchers for voting to increase his power, after voting a 20.2% increase in our property taxes,while he was CM.
now if he would get the delinquent landlords to pay their fines for e.c.b. and d.o.b violations .
even those who donated to his campaigns ??????
It's a shame most commenters here don't use login names. Some of them have useful insights, many are crazy old coots.
I think you are all using the term veteran a little loosely. Veteran refers to someone who served his country in a recognized war zone, not just the fact that he served in some branch of the military at any given time or place! For instance, although Frank Padavan did serve he was never in a war zone and by most could not be recognized as a veteran.

Wrong: Websters says:
Definition of VETERAN
b : a former member of the armed forces
The V.A. definition of Veteran
Section 101(2) of title 38, United States Code, provides the basic definition of the term "veteran" for purposes of benefits under laws administered by VA, i.e., " t he term 'veteran' means a person who served in the active military, naval, or air service, and who was discharged or released therefrom under
conditions other than dishonorable." See also 38 C.F.R. § 3.1(d). The term "veteran" is used repeatedly in title 38 to identify an individual who is eligible for benefits by virtue of his or her service. The section-101(2) definition establishes a standard regarding the quality of active service which will result in eligibility for veterans' benefits.
oh please.
That hack Frank Padavan joined the Army Corps of Engineers, when he was 45 years old, after he was elected to the State Senate and was "stationed" in Bayside at Fort Totten.
Hhe had the complete disgrace to parade around in a uniform with medals next to real heroes.
And MOST IMPORTANTLY, when Padavan did have the opportunity to serve as a young man, he got a deferment cause he went BACK to school to get a masters degree in enginerring.
Frank Padavan was a DRAFT DODGER and everyone who even gives his claims a cursory look will see that.
Good riddance.
I like the way friends of Colonel Padavan, the great defender of Western freedom, now must resort to Webster dictionary to figure out a technical definition of veteran.
Hilarious. I dont know, I think i would know if I was a veteran. Here would be my test:
1) I am a veteran if i was in the armed forces of the US and while in the armed forces I served in a foreign country, whether in combat or not.
2) I joined the armed forces at an age where even if I was stationed in the US, I could have been called for duty any time.
Pretty fuckin simple.
Now, this is when I would be ashamed to call myself a veteran.
1) I not only refused to join the armed forces at a young age, but got a deferment to get a Masters degree.
2) i joined the armed forces at the age of 45, I had absolutely zero prospects of ever serving in combat and I spend a few weekend a year in upstate New York as a State Senator making believe I was taking some classes to get upgraded to Colonel.
3) In walked around the Little Neck Parade every year in my uniform like I was a Boy Scout or something making a fool of myself and pissing on the memory of every American hero who gave their lives.
Frank Padavan is the lowest form of human and it is amazing now that he has no office, how many people attack him and say how much they hated him.
I find it amazing that you folks are wasting time and energy attacking a retired politician. Time to get a life.
He didnt retire. He was thrown out of office. Big difference. And his crimes of making believe he was a veteran are pretty serious. everyone knows Padavan did everything he could to imply that not only was he a "veteran" and everything people think that is (telling folks he was in the Army for 25 years) but he often said at veterans events "And those of us that served know ..."
It doesn't really matter now, does it? He's retired, whether by choice or not and he was beaten by someone without a record of service.
It's all moot now. Time to take up another hobby.
just google "Colonel Frank padavan" and you will see about two hundred refercne to "25 years in the Army" and more importantly "ATTAINED the rank of Colonel."
Attained the rank of Colonel. Padavan repeated those words for almost 40 years.
well he didnt "attain" the rank of Colonel. He was appointed to the slot as a State Senator.
War heroes attain ranks, not political hacks.
Tony Avella never made believe he was anything. he certainly never made believe he was a "veteran." Okay Crappy, we disagree on this one, but when you think of all those boys and girls coming home to their parents in boxes, in Maspeth and corona and bayside and everywhere across the country, and then you look at a picture of this clown Padavan in a chicken suit, its enough to drive you to deep hatred of the man.
Is there anything worse then making believe you are a veteran ? is stealing worse ? i dont think so, but thats my opinion.
you boys are all missing the point, as usual. someone got paid to handle that sign.
they did it for the dignity of a paycheck. not the political party.
tony avella will be out of office in 2012
Frank padavan served his country
with honor
as usual the progressive demonizers of any elected conservative/G.O.P. politician,have lost there CREDIBILITY. in this case ,they resort to attack a man, who served his electorate and country HONORABLY , for many years. he lost one election in 30 to 40 years.most queens citizens wanted his leadership then.
their "VETERAN" description is completely bogus.
"MASTERS OF DECEIT" must change any topic where their politcal beliefs are negatively scrutinized.
many of their democrat members of gangster government are presently in prison, or enroute to prison.
STAY TUNED.....U.S.Navy,Korean War Veteran,U.S.MINESWEEPERS.
Why is Senator Shummer in Queens - he did not defend financial industry and in turn layoffs occurred in backrooms and administration folks all middle class jobs that many Queens homeowners had. Keep this guy away from Queens!
Frank Padavan served his country when exactly ?
Frank Padavan served his country where ? Bayside ? Hanging out with Joesphine Spinella at the Fort Totten Officers Club ?
These guys acted like they were in a movie.
Shame ! Shame Padavan !!
You got the ultimate rejection. The first time you had a race in 30 years, the voters threw you out on your ass.
Poor Dan Halloran, always being used. Here are some thoughts on why Avella will beat him by thirty points:
1) Avella beat Saint Frank by ten points.
2) Halloran beat the Asian guy, by 6 points, in the most Republican part of the Senate district.
3) Avella beat every Republican he ran against in Hallorans district by 30 points.
4) The rest of Padavans district is Democratic, where Halloran will get no votes.
5) There are alot of negatives to be explored in regard to Halloran, especially amongst Democratic voters who have never heard of him.
6) Sop can the Republicans jerk off Dan enough so that he jumnps in ? Probably, and if you think Padavan got sick after the race, think of what they will do to Danny. oh, boy.
Good to see my comment brought out the truth about Frank Padavan, who didn't retire but was thrown out on his ass for doing nothing for his community but serve the rich and special interests for 38 years. He's still busy by the way in the Republican party and advising Dan Halloran how to flush his political career down the toilet. Run against Avella, Danny! This one I gotta see.
Schumer proudly serves his country... as an elected official.
Chuck Schumer's act of marching in the Memorial Day Parades,which honors America's war dead heroes, with his name signs for political recognition is DESPICABLE .
Chuckie Schumer's not as brilliant as he would have you believe him to be. Here he describes the Three Branches of the Federal Gov't as only he can:

I recently move to whitestone from England, from reading the papers and articles about Sir. Devon O'Connor i really think in whitestone hes Throwing a spanner in the works. Everything was all Tickety-boo before devon came into view. If we all gather we can all say Toodle pip to this chap. He has to be doing some serious Wacky backy to think he can take the biscut for everything in whitestone..... Cheers
Everone is always talking about Devon O'Connor but no one ever mentions his right hand man Logan O'Connor. So for all of us who think its just Devon trying to take over whitestone, were wrong. Its both of them.
Never heard of either of those guys.
What's sad is that tony avella has to pick on these o connor kids
