I wonder if the poor chumps, "and their families", who have their union dues taken out realize just how loosely their money (that could otherwise be in their pockets) is spent. "Local" PA politics? for a non-local NJ union?<br /><br />Unions have, and continue to serve a legitimate purpose in our country. This is an abuse, however.<br /><br />Dertinger, Wallace, Wally G. Getting money from NJ (union) and MD (Angelos) for a PA county race?!? Gee, if you have to go that far for support, makes me wonder if you really are in it for Northampton County's best interests.Lighthousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05346747286241817118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-25643736398801275602009-06-26T21:18:00.205-04:002009-06-26T21:18:00.205-04:00Why does Peter Angelos a.) attend NorCo Dem functi...Why does Peter Angelos a.) attend NorCo Dem function to be introduced to prospective candidates, and b.) give money for LOCAL politics in PA??

THe comments always include, "Heckman told me" or "I asked him." I always picture Heckman like one of those mountaintop gurus in the New Yorker cartoons with some poor slob scaling the top, "Oh great guru, O'Hare says that you gave Reibman $5k. Is it true, great guru?" "Tell O'Hare I did not and tell the people I support the bi-county health commission. Now go in peace." "Yes, great guru."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-74663257964982535952009-06-26T01:45:24.893-04:002009-06-26T01:45:24.893-04:00I didn't smear anyone.

Heckman filed no report so I have no way of knowing whether your claim is true or false, but it's a possibility I already mentioned. <br /><br />I have no problem w/ Heckman, whom I like.

Heckman gave his $5k and reibman gave each Democratic council candidate $500 and gave McHale $500, too. He did not distinguishe or play favorites and he has more $ (about $75k) than he had before. He is by no means in exile, but can't seek office w/o violating the Hatch Act. So he appears to be working on his third pension w/ the bridge Comm'n.Bernie O'Harehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13756311150988957401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-13208377038794023752009-06-26T00:53:58.441-04:002009-06-26T00:53:58.441-04:00Is Reibman still that involved with the LongDems o...Is Reibman still that involved with the LongDems or is he just unloading all the money he raised and didn't get to spend in 2005?
