My ...Ahhh, there but for the grace of God go I.....<br />My father built up his wealth doing the bidding of those right wingers; Al D'Amato, Ben Gilman and the like during the 70's... As a private detective he helped dirty tricksters Dick and Spiro cut the voter rolls through bogus challenges and what is now known as vote caging. His former State Trooper commander boss was arrested and did time for accessing the early State Police computerized data base for some of these dirty tricks. <br />Those were the days of gentleman and clambakes; the politicians look so quaint when compared to what has replaced them in the Republican party... they actually did some good... for patrons. <br />I was being groomed for a future of public service... until post Reagan first term I realized the only ones getting service were the servants on the public dime. When I spoke up, all dads support stopped and his authoritarian heel came down, I could do no right.<br />While I suffer with multiple disabilities from working the labor jobs of transportation that they built up in Orange County, living in the section 8 housing as the multiple surgeries have caused me to lose six long term jobs in twenty five years; I can at least have the satisfaction of knowing that I spoke up, took my consequences and am here to testify that blind faith and human loyalty are stronger than many family bonds.teknikALnoreply@blogger.com
