Sadly the political opportunists are posturing to be quoted in the newspaper and photographed at the wake and funeral. He was such a great man and will now be taken advantage of in death by those who cannot miss an opportunity to see and be seen.
For just once could FORMER Mayor Paul Aronsohn refrain from responding to the news media. How disrespectful of Pastor Johnson that the FORMER Mayor felt the need to be quoted. Shut up Paul; we’re sick and tired of hearing from you. Thanks much.

Aronsohn reminds me in his stupid quote of when Albert Pucciarelli said he was with Roger Wiegand just before he passed over to the other side. Oh my god, Roger was in a coma, helpless, and he could not stand Pucciarelli.
Being an opportunist when someone has died is the lowest of the low
Go, pay your respects to Rev. Johnson. He was a wonderful man. But keep your eyes to yourself, don’t be worrying about who is there, don’t be running up to the reporter, don’t get photographed. If you do, we will all know you are the lowest of the low.
Cue up…..Aronsohn, Phillips, Hauck. Count on it.
Former Mayor Paul Aronsohn, a close friend who was at Johnson’s bedside hours before his passing, recalled a regular interaction he’d have with Johnson: “I would say, ‘Good to see you, Reverend.’ He would always say, ‘It’s good to be seen.’ I’ll miss seeing him.”
Reprehensible behavior. Blecch.
I would not put it past that scumbag Aronsohn to show up at the funeral with either Josh Gottheimer, Corey Booker, or Robert Menendez, or all/a combination of them in tow. He is the sleaziest political opportunist I have ever had the misfortune of knowing.
Well with such a long wake, it will be tough for Arnonsohn, Phillips, etc to orchestrate being there when Gottheimer arrives and when the photographer from the newspaper is there. It is all about BEING SEEN, a great opportunity for these media hounds. makes me sick. Rev. Johnson was such a great man, to be used like this in death is sickening.
Aronsohn is a close friend to himself and himself alone.

Are you kidding me 10:11? Aronsohn knows the drill. He will call the newspaper to let them know what time he’ll be there with Gottheimer or the others. He’s a master of manipulation.
Who cares what Paul Aronsohn does any more? His behavior has made him irrelevant. Anyone who thinks he’s a friend has never dealt with him when your opinion differs from his.
