Fed Ed Investigation Rumors

Here are a few tidbits I've heard in recent days. These are still in the rumor stage, but i'll share them anyway. First, another guilty plea should be filed soon, this time involving an engineer with ties to contracts in both Reading and Allentown. Second, feds plan to start a prosecution against Reading Mayor Vaughn Spencer before his term is up. Finally, Allentown Mayor Edwin "Fed Ed" Pawlowski is trying to line up a job for his wife. Maybe Mike Schlossberg can help her get one at Billy's Diner, but she'll have to get a ServSafe certification.

Schlossberg is one I would enjoy seeing being thrown out of office.

Ed Pawlowski is not a crook.

No one has done more for the poor and underprivileged classes than the Mayor.

No one cares more, save maybe Alan Jennings.

8:19 is satire.

Here's an article about engineering firms on the FBI's list:

Those Billy's jobs are a real prize for people living adjacent to the NIZ.

8:09, don't be vulgar. People like you don't help.

My sister has been trying to land a waitress position at Billys since the beginning of summer.
She said they have over 30 resumes on file.

Bernie O'Hare said...

I refuse to patronize any of his businesses. First, the food is way overpriced,.Second, the owner is a crony capitalist, a typical political whore. I have no use for the guy, who tried to get a ticket fixed as soon as he was put on Bethlehem's Parking Authority.

8:19 is being sarcastic. It is not Saint Edwin or his minions.

Billy is a dedicated Tea Party devotee.
Goes to show the Mayor doesn't play partisan politics.

8:19 is a teabagger who thinks he understands sarcasm. He types the same thing every time Bernie does a Fed Ed piece. Anger and hate trying to be funny and missing the mark every time.

Billy employs illegal undocumented central Americans & Mexicans but no one will verify. I will not patronize any of his places either.

"Anger and hate", eh 3:39?

Exactly which part of, "Ed Pawlowski is not a crook. No one has done more for the poor and underprivileged classes than the Mayor. No one cares more, save maybe Alan Jennings," says "anger" and "hate"?

And just exactly what IS a "teabagger"?

Please clarify.

In the meantime, face some facts : Ed Pawlowski has not even been charged with anything, let alone convicted.

Hate on that awhile.

Ed Pawlowski is a bona fide profile in courage. Battles unsubstantiated rumors and innuendo all day long but still, somehow, finds the strength to continue fighting for the rights of the poor and underprivileged classes. Lesser men daydream about homosexual terms and throw crap against the wall in the hopes that something might actually stick.

Pawlowski, on the other hand, has the intestinal fortitude to get out of bed every day, put his big boy pants on and continue to show up at City Hall so that Allentown can continue to move forward towards real progress for all.

We need more dedicated and caring professionals from Chicago, not less.

Bernie O'Hare said...

Yes, Pawlowski has done an amazing job taking care of underprivileged people like J.B. Reilly, Joe Topper, Lee Butz and Sean Boyle.

Billy's diners are fantastic his veganesque omelet was a smash hit until that monster from Vegan Treats hammered him on twitter. In February expect his number one client to be back holding court perhaps with a platinum blonde bombshell hanging on his elbow and every word while regaling political power players with tales from the pen.

Bernie I like to know when the fbi going to investigate joe hanna the guy running for sheriff he and fed ed were good friends and fed ed go him lots of donation for his cronies

Bernie O'Hare said...

That's no reason for launching an investigation.

Joe Hannah is in the wrong party to gain financial support from FedEd. Nice try though.

The silver fox has been seen consoling Ed on a regular basis, good marketing power players excell at listening, being empathic, and finding serenity when things are chaotic.

Ed's skills on the drums have impressed the "mentor" so much that weekly collaboration have been going on for sometime now, Eddie has pipes too so look for some duets when they perform at next years Fest.

What, you want Reilly, Topper, Butz and Boyle to starve and sleep under a bridge in a cardboard box?

I think it's a travesty that Mayor Pawlowski was needlessly forced to suspend his campaign for the United States Senate. With the Mayor's impeccable leadership skills and his superhuman sense of care and compassion for all leading the charge, we could have turned the entire Commonwealth of Pennsylvania into one giant NIZ. Wow, talk about a missed opportunity!

Even Bill White of The Morning Call acknowledged that the NIZ was "a gift horse that should be groomed and fed with loving care."

The number one rumor I heard is that the bombs (indictments) are going to drop either the Friday before (Oct 30) or Friday after (Nov 6) the election on Nov 3. But like I write, it is all rumor. Of course, the scientists are claiming there is water on Mars, without drinking any of it. So I won't be drinking any Pawlowski or Federal Kool-aid, I will just wait until the guillotine falls to see whose head (or balls) falls in the basket. But I think very soon there will be something substantial in the basket. Possibly by this Friday. Who knows?!

Hey 10:16, some of the greatest thoroughbred racehorses were Geldings! Why not a Gift Horse? I love mixing my metaphors!

Thanks, Blog Mentor! Why are you such a putz? And why does your wife the teacher support the ASD student walkout?

confused in Lehigh County said...

is it me or are there no real active campaigns this election year?

the election is November 3, basically 5 weeks away and the rac es dont seem to get any attention, no mailers yet....

is it too early or did the Mike Fleck dynamic put a damper on the situation

Lehigh county commissioner is a curious case of no one knows who is running

Bernie O'Hare said...

It seems like nothing is going on in Lehigh or Northampton. I have never seen it this dead, which is a bad thing.

Just got a robocall informing me that Orclownski is running for Laughing Stock of Lilliputian Township

Mezzacappa, You need to be concentrating right now on paying off your judgment to me, not abusing my attorney. You are entitled to a setoff for your car, but still owe somewhere around $65,000. You need to hand over the deed if you can't get the cash. I will let you stay there rent free for a reasonable time if you need some time to move. You are not going to like it when a sheriff breaks and enters your home, seizes your bank accounts and whatever car you are driving now. So it's time to stop flipping the bird and screeching like a shrew from outside the courthouse and come to terms. I want cash or the house. Don't say, Molon Labe," because you should know by now that I will. I have a judgment, so the only thing that's worth negotiating is the value of your car. You say it is worth $12k. If that is so, you still owe about $63,000. So come up with the cash or hand over the deed. And stop hiding things.

Speaking of the Pied Piper fable, I have an even better one

A Dog, to whom the butcher had thrown a bone, was hurrying home with his prize as fast as he could go. As he crossed a narrow footbridge, he happened to look down and saw himself reflected in the quiet water as if in a mirror. But the greedy Dog thought he saw a real Dog carrying a bone much bigger than his own.

If he had stopped to think he would have known better. But instead of thinking, he dropped his bone and sprang at the Dog in the river, only to find himself swimming for dear life to reach the shore. At last he managed to scramble out, and as he stood sadly thinking about the good bone he had lost, he realized what a stupid Dog he had been.

It is very foolish to be greedy, and being a cocky mother fucker lands you in a lions den, with cockier and more powerful motherfuckers.

That's the mistake you made, Mezzacappa. You swam at the deep end of the pool, and have two criminal convictions, a $67,400 judgmen, have lost your car and are going to lose your home.

A greedy dog is better than a needy dog. Grow up and pay the man instead of acting like an idiot with your canon on your hip. No one is impressed.
