Steve and Team Orange were all agog in DC for the Presidential
inauguration ceremony and have completely come down with a case of the D.T.s! Steve
is hopeful that the new POTUS’ connection (He attended NY Military Academy) to
Orange County will inspire the new President to help with the issues in OC!
Steve was seen applauding energetically and cheering loudly at the
inauguration.
STEVE SAID: "He'll spend a
lot of time here, and he'll see the problems ... and he'll give us the
attention we need,"
Steve, whatever do you mean? We thought everything was GREAT! At least
that is what you said in your State of the County report, your “Orange County
Report Card” and elsewhere; those “informational” flyers you sent out at
taxpayer’s expense that looked suspiciously like campaign flyers for the Dream
Team.
Nieces and Nephews, you know the ones of which we speak! Those proclaiming just how
wonderful it is to be in Orange County, that we have jobs. Jobs. Jobs! (6000 in
1000 days *-all yet to be verified) and a high level of Tourism to boost our
bottom dollar along with a Growing Economy! The flyers where Steve touts the
number of new businesses located in OC; shovel ready sites to attract even more
business and reinvigorate Foreign Trade. (He doesn’t do really do Foreign
Trade, the Feds do, but it is just so darn cute when he says things like that.)
Let’s look at the businesses that Steve has supported.
Maybe Donald Trump can help with these.
Are these the problems that you would like to talk to
Donald Trump about? Because Auntie and the Team see a very simple solution. And
the solution is coming this November.

Those against the LEGO LAND PROJECT should hold C.EX NEUHAUSE responsible for sightng it in Goshen. It was Neuhause an political hacks who selectd the Goshen sight Rumours of corruption etc run ramped in Goshen unfouned at best. My opinion is the Goshen Town board needs to be more open an revisit some statements made pro legoland in the past by some of its members. As far has the planning board goes its chair has been accused of openly supporting this project? His employer is the CO/EX Neuhause, who gave us legoland an his employee cashs his pay check signed by the CO/EX. CONFLICT NOT IN ORANG CO.
ReplyDeleteThe planning board chair is employed by Steve Neuhaus? Doesn't Steve openly support the project? If the chairperson is worried about keeping his day job then he might be a bit frightened to vote no to the project. Yes that is a conflict of interest!
ReplyDeleteWhen OC politicians are involved in a "groundbreaking" ceremony it should be called "windbreaking", lots of hot air and usually stinks.
ReplyDeleteAgree with the implied conclusion to this article - November = time to shovel out the stable....
ReplyDeleteDear Nieces and Nephews, another one for the report card:Re Star Kay White
ReplyDeleteOrange County Executive Steve Neuhaus applauded the funding announced for his county on Thursday, attributing it to "our successful track record of getting things done and a diverse portfolio of projects including youth services, job training, tourism promotion, (and) infrastructure development." Both he and Hein serve on the 30-member regional council that prioritizes projects in the region that seek economic development grants each year.
"I look forward to working with my many partners to see these projects implemented," Neuhaus said.

Next: Legoland?
Dear Auntie,
ReplyDeleteWhy do you suppose Steve Newhouse is not out inpublic proclaiming the his success in attracting Lego to Goshen? Shouldn't he be out bragging to the people of Goshen how lucky we are that he convinced them to come to our town?
