>the Fly on the Wall has learned….Congressmen Scott Garrett was out touring the flooded zones in the district this past weekend. He sent press releases to local papers and asked reporters to tour with the Congressman but the papers just don’t cover us. Scott’s even taken on New York State by sending a personal letter to request the state lower it’s reservoirs to handle their flood water instead of dumping it on us. He was out front and received little credit. Much of the flooding has come from NY State keeping their reservoirs at 100% and then opening the flood gates to protect themselves during high rain. NJ floods, NY is dry. Unfortunately the papers have unlimited bias! They simply refuse to cover Scott even when he’s out doing the same or more than the Democrats are doing. The papers make it look like he hasn’t done anything when in fact he’s done a great deal. Scott’s office was out front, taking care of the towns and people that flooded. The very morning of the flooding, Scott’s legislative office called every town in the district to assess the damage in each town. He met with towns and people personally that flooded. He and his legislative staff worked quietly and efficiently to get the job done. It’s a shame the papers only want to cover dog and pony shows but don’t honor the hard work of Scott and his legislative aides.

>The last job of the editor of the left of center Ridgewood News was as a waitress/manager of a local restaurant. Such training, I’m afraid, only prepared her to serve up what’s on the…liberal menu. Many readers are fooled, but many, too, are not. Thank you, Scott, for all that you do.
>Your enthusiasm makes me think you’re “carrying water” for Scotty.
>and everyone else is “carrying water” for the irresponsible dimwits that have ruined new jersey
>i would say “carrying water” for all the a**holes in trenton
>I think the other news outlets are “carrying water” for all the stupid coward loser RINO’s in the republicans
>I agree Garetts biggest problem is the turn coat republicans that all voted for mic creppy
>yes the republican party is a joke in this state
>Didn’t I see a photo in The Record on 4/22/07 of Representative Garrett talking to flood victims in New Milford?
– Rep Scott Garrett, R-Wantage, who toured River Edge and New Milford on Saturday, said the delegation is “doing all we can to make a case” for a disaster declaration. –
>now you know as well as I do that Garrett had over 100 press conferences last year and I think you missed most of them ?
>What is with your strange obsession with this guy anyway PJ?
>There does seem to be an unhealthy obsession with Garrett here. And by the way, if the first poster was referring to Susan Sherrill, I don’t think she was a waitress or manager — she owned Village Green restaurant. I’m not saying that’s the perfect training for newspaper editor, but just get the facts straight. And who knows what her other qualifications are…I happen to have a journalism degree and I worked as a waitress once…horrors! That time as a waitress must have cancelled out everything else I’ve ever done! Give it a rest with the personal attacks.
