Paladino Homophobically Politicizes 419 Scam Letter
Here is the text of an email to supporters that Carl Paladino sent Wednesday evening:
(See email from Glenda below)
Glenda, thank you for writing. I would like to refer you to Congressman Brian Higgins.
Brian is the Congressman who was the first to jump on the bandwagon of Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama to pass Obamacare. He readily admits that he didn’t read the bill or understand the particulars of its terrible impact on his constituents. He felt it was more important to illustrate to his moderate constituency that he had evolved to be his own man, arrogant, condescending and blindly allegiant to every and any liberal elitist cause.
Brian knows that people tend to forget his omissions because he is a dupe of the Buffalo News and they “take care” of him.
Of course Brian takes credit for removing the Thruway tolls on the I-190. So what if he had absolutely nothing to do with it? He’s a politician and for them it’s ok to lie and make stuff up. He has to show his constituents that he does something for his paycheck.
Sure he was the motivator behind the unsightly paving of the entire outer harbor. Too much green attracts bugs and he was trying to deal with the mosquito problem in his own simplistic way.
Many of his moderate constituents, including family members believe that he should be excommunicated for his acceptance and promotion of partial birth abortion, but why pick on him? Others like Andrew Cuomo and Tim Kennedy also believe that it’s ok to kill a baby at birth. He believes that a woman has a right to choose murder.
And as for the nonsensical talk that he killed the Bass Pro Project that would have brought an economic boom to downtown retail, he wasn’t alone. Cowards like Brian have had a tough time facing down the likes of Stan Lipsey, Howard Zemsky and Jordon Levy, especially as in this case when they want to control the State subsidy money and use it for their own ends. For Stan Lipsey the thought of having rednecks with gun racks on their pickup trucks in his area of downtown was too much for the lame and arrogant liberal power broker. Brian needs the Buffalo News to be on his side to get re-elected and Jordon Levy’s money to pay for his special desires.
Glenda, Brian likes dancing on the edge for people of your persuasion. He likes to show people that he is not the cowardly planarian that one may think and that he does take responsibility for his actions and those of the stooges that work for him. I’m sure he will love to hear from you.
– Carl Paladino
It’s typical vicious Paladino, spraying insult and invective every which-way with no real logical thread. Bass Pro, abortion, the Buffalo News, the Thruway, Obamacare – it’s a compendium of fairyland talk-radio outrages. The angry right-wing Buffalo id in all its glory.
It also drips with a humorless, angry sarcasm.
What did “Glenda” send to Carl that prompted this dull and predictable outburst?

That’s right. It’s the opening missive of a 419 advance-fee scammer.
Why would a 419 scam letter from someone who claims to be gay and to have been referred to Paladino from a “gay site” prompt Carl to immediately invoke Congressman Higgins’ name? Remember in an earlier post I asked, “What do you think Is the genesis of Paladino’s acute hatred and fear of homosexuals?”
Seriously, this is getting ugly.
Carl’s non-sequitur lunge at Higgins: is he accusing the Congressman of being gay or something? There is no other reasonable explanation.
This is a person who gets glowing coverage in Buffalo media, and has actually been elected to a position of trust and authority over a troubled city school district. WTF are we doing?
