365 Port Chester: Mucha tension en el camarilla politica republicana

365 Port Chester: Mucha tension en el camarilla politica republicana

Mucha tension en el camarilla politica republicana

El Sr. Bart Didden recibio el apoyo del partido republicano local de Port Chester durante la camarilla politica que fue conducida en el restaurante T&J's en Westchester Avenue.

Mientras el recibia el apoyo y elogio de los republicanos, la mayoria personas blancas, y por ahi uno o dos hispanos, como la Sra. Fabiola Montoya (que antes era democrata, despues se cambio a independiente, y finalmente a republicana) y que corrio como republicana durante las elecciones en Junio 2010 y quedo en penultimo lugar. Afuera del restaurante, mucha gente Hispana protestaba el apoyo que los republicanos le daba al Sr. Didden, por la creacion de un folleto racista que el Sr. distribuyo en 2007 atacando a los Hispanos de la villa.

El Sr. Didden nunca pidio perdon a la gente que el ataco en ese folleto. Y ahora el ya tiene el apoyo del partido republicano local para convertise en alcalde. Para mas informacion, lea el Westmore News.

We are back.

Just in time to cover the local mayoral elections of the village of Port Chester. I bring to you, respectfully, daily information which will cover the campaigns of Port Chester's Mayor, Dennis Pilla, and his challenger, current village Trustee Bart Didden.

There is a lot to report on these two subjects. However, Mr. Didden wins the prize. In the past couple of years, Mr. Didden has put himself on the national headlines with his infamous involvement in the racist flyer he co-authored, yet masterminded in 2007, with then Trustee, John Crane, and then Board of Education President, Dominic Bencivenga. Mr. Didden is infamously know as the village racist.

The flyer was sent out anonymously in Greenwich in the eve of the 2007 mayoral election between then Trustee Dennis Pilla and Trustee Dominic Cicatelli. In the flyer, Mr. Didden asks the non-hispanic white voters to come out in full force of Mr. Cicatelli, because he alleged that the "Hispanics were running the show already." He also directly attacked Blanca Lopez and Cesar Ruiz not only because they supported Mr. Pilla but because, as Hispanic leaders, they represented the largest minority of the village of Port Chester, Latinos.

Although Mr. Didden denied his involvement publicly to the Journal News, it wasn't until he was under oath, that he admitted to his role in this flyer. His admission and evidence of racial appeal was the turning point to the lawsuit occurring at that time when the Department of Justice was suing the village of Port Chester for its election system.

For more information, here is a copy of the judge's findings thanks to the local weekly newspaper in Port Chester, the Westmore News.

Hemos Regresado

Justo a tiempo para cubrir las elecciones locales para la alcaldía de la villa de Port Chester, nuestro reportero respetuosamente les trae información diaria sobre las campanas de los Srs. Dennis Pilla, quien es el Alcalde de Port Chester y el Sr. Bart Didden, que actualmente es miembro del consejo de administración de la villa de Port Chester.

Hay mucho que reportar sobre estas dos figuras, especialmente de el Sr. Didden que tiene una historia alborotada y ha sido nombrado por varios como el racista del pueblo. Como ustedes podrían recordar, este sr. fue el que desarrollo y creo un folleto durante la campana en 2007 cuando justo se lanzo el Alcalde Pilla en contra de otro miembro del consejo administrativo de la villa, Dominic Cicatelli. Fue el Sr. Didden que mando anónimamente este folleto donde pide a la gente blanca, no hispana, que votaran por el Sr. Cicatelli porque los Hispanos "Ya estaban controlando Port Chester." El folleto dirigió sus ataques racistas en contra de la Srta. Blanca López y el Sr. Cesar Ruiz. Estas dos figuras, lideres Hispanos en Port Chester fueron atacados no solo porque apoyaban al Alcalde, sino porque también representan a la mayoria mas grande en Port Chester, los Latinos.

Solos fue cuando el Sr. Didden tuvo que confesar su involucramiento en este folleto bajo juramento durante el caso judicial entre el departamento de Justicia de los EEUU y la villa de Port Chester sobre el sistema de votación local.

Aqui encontrara mas informacion sobre el testimonio del Sr. Didden gracias al periodico local de Port Chester el Westmore News.

Bart Didden continues to attack Lopez and Hispanics - enough is enough!

Everyone in Port CHester knows about our infamous village racist, Bart Didden, who sent out the racist flyer during the mayoral village elections last march.

The flyer, as has been mentioned before, targeted Hispanics and Ms. Lopez, then Trustee Pilla's campaign manager. The flyer was a racial appeal for all non-Hispanic voters to not vote for Pilla because of his association with Lopez and the Hispanic community.

This writer has reported previusly that everything came to light when Didden was asked to testify at the federal court about his involvement with this flyer with the participation of Trustee John Crane and then Chair of teh Board of Education, Dom Bencivenga.

But the story does not end there people. THis writer has discovered by means of the Jounal News blog that Didden continues to attack Lopez and the Hispanic community, here are some examples:

Bart writes:
"The general belief is that Ms. Lopez's focus is solely supporting Hispanics here in Port Chester and surrounding communities. Unfortunately her actions speak volumes to this statement and there is no denying it.

Our problems are simple, over crowding, schools that could and should be better and density that is beyond the community’s ability to support it which is resulting in falling property values and tax increases."

His comments suggest that lopez only supports hispanics and that by doing that she is supporting the problems "caused" by hispanics who live in Port Chester.

Here is another one:
"The other flaw in the DOJ position is that there is no country called "Hispanic". The fact is that neighboring countries in Central and South America are either warring against each other or has border disputes constantly.

If these "Hispanic" governments had concern for others and other countries they would be as tough on the drug trade as this country that we live in. Drugs rob the potential life dreams from all people that take the drugs to all the family and friends around them. Drugs terminate the lives of those who have such potential to make a difference that is hurts the community as a whole, whether its Port Chester or not.

The problem is that there is no consensus in the Hispanic community as I believe that Hispanics gravitate more to the views of the country they come from rather than "Hispanic".

Hispanic, the way it is used by the DOJ, the members of the Board of Trustees and those that write here on this page is so generic that it is really a disservice to the Latinos across the country.

Back to Ms. Lopez, during her presentation of credentials for a board appointment she stated that she “has witnessed” overcrowded apartments, illegal apartments in attics and basements and “cockroach” infested living conditions.

What has Ms. Lopez done for these people?

She should have called the Village Building Department, or her good friends Pilla and Brakewood and reported such sub-human living conditions that are code violations.

Ms. Lopez has a duty to report these conditions since she is a committee member of a Village project and an appointed member to the Master Plan Advisory Committee. Failure to report should be a violation of the Village Code of Ethics."

Obviously, Bart Didden does not know what the word Hispanic means nor where it originates. Read up on your Hispanic history Bart. These comments are full of hatred and ignorance. Maybe Bart should review American history and read up on the involvement of the U.S. goverment in Latin America and the history of drugs in this county. Blaming Hispanics in Latin AMerica for creating the so called drug problem does not cut it. Then again, Bart did not finish college, so he missed out on a lot of information.

He continues to attack Lopez about her role in helping people who live in substandard conditions, and insinuates that she did not report these findings to the Buildings Department,/ How does Bart know Lopez did not report them? Maybe Lopez should report Bart for operating his business without a Certificate of Occupancy - huge violation right there. LEt's think, if Lopez did not report these violations then why have I seen Ms. Lopez in village court and town court helping tenants who are being harrassed by landlords? why do I see Lopez advocating for affordable housing and reading about her in the JN whenever there is an issue involving housing? Bart...just stop.

These words come from a coward who wrote a flyer anonymously, got caught by the federal government, sits comfortably on the planning board, yet he has not been referred to the Ethics committe, yet ,he keeps pushing for lopez to be referred to the ethics board.....is this guy for real?

His comments are absurd. He keeps insulting people because he honestly thinks that he is in his right to do that. It is a free country and he does have the right to free speech, no matter how dumb it may sound. Yet, he has to stop. Stop insulting the Hispanic community who is hard working. Stop insulting people like Ms. Lopez who is a well-respected Hispanic woman in Port Chester and throughout Westchester County.

What has Bart Didden done for this community? He has sued the village, has bullied his way to get what he wants, and threatens people when they do not agree to what he wants or says.
YA BASTA BART!

El racista del pueblo de Port Chester, Bart Didden, continua atacando a Lopez - YA BASTA!!

Toda la gente de Port Chester, conoce al racista infamoso del pueblo llamado, Bart Didden, quien mando un folleto anonimo durante las eleciones para la posicion de alcalde el Marzo pasado. El boletin acusaba a la srta. Lopez de solo representar a la comunidad Hispana y que todo lo que ella mandaba, el alcalde (entonces candidato) dennis pilla, tenia que obedecer. Aparte de eso, el boletin hacia un llamadao a toda la gente no hispana a que votaran en contra de Pilla por su asociacion con la comunidad Hispana, por medio de su consejera politica, quien era la srta. Lopez.

Este escritor habia escrito en previos mensajes, que todo salio a la luz cuando Bart Didden tuvo que testificar en la corte federal, y es ahi cuando admitio que el habia creado este boletin anonimo con la ayuda del Concejal John Crane, y el ex-presidente de la Junta de Educacion, Dom Bencivenga, que fue derrotado este ano durante las elecciones de educacion el mayo pasado.

Pero el cuento no para ahi... hemos descubierto, al hacer una investigacion por medio del Journal News y su blog de escritores, que el senor didden sigue atacando a la srta. lopez y a los Hispanos en general, aqui hay algunos ejemplos:

El Senor Didden escribe:
"The general belief is that Ms. Lopez's focus is solely supporting Hispanics here in Port Chester and surrounding communities. Unfortunately her actions speak volumes to this statement and there is no denying it.

Our problems are simple, over crowding, schools that could and should be better and density that is beyond the community’s ability to support it which is resulting in falling property values and tax increases."

Traduccion:
"El sentimiento general es que el enfoque de la Srta. Lopez es de solo apoyar a los Hispanos de Port Chester y de las comunidades alrededor. Desafortunadamente, sus acciones hablan volumenes de lo que estoy diciendo y no hay porque negarlo.

Nuestros problemas son simples - la sobrepoblacion de personas en viviendas, escuelas que pueden y deben de ser mejores, y densidad que va mas alla de la abilidad de esta comunidad para soportarlo - en lo que resulta en la bajada de valores de propiedad e incrementos en los impuestos."

En ester comentario, es obvio que el senor didden sugiere que la srta lopez apoya a los Hispanos y tambien a los problemas supuestamente causados por la poblacion Hispana que vive en este pueblo.

Aqui va otro comentario:
"The other flaw in the DOJ position is that there is no country called "Hispanic". The fact is that neighboring countries in Central and South America are either warring against each other or has border disputes constantly.

If these "Hispanic" governments had concern for others and other countries they would be as tough on the drug trade as this country that we live in. Drugs rob the potential life dreams from all people that take the drugs to all the family and friends around them. Drugs terminate the lives of those who have such potential to make a difference that is hurts the community as a whole, whether its Port Chester or not.

Ms. Lopez has a duty to report these conditions since she is a committee member of a Village project and an appointed member to the Master Plan Advisory Committee. Failure to report should be a violation of the Village Code of Ethics."

En estos comentarios, el senor didden dice que los Hispanos vienen en paises que estan constantemente en guerra entre ellos, y que nosotros somos problematicos. Que nosotros como Hispanos hemos creado el problema de la droga que ahora invade a este pais. Que por medio de nuestro apoyo a la droga, hemos malogrado las vidas de los ciudanos estadounidenses y que nosotros, como hispanos hemos causando tantos problemas aca. Obviamente, el Senor Didden no sabe de la historia del envolvimiento del gobierno estadounidence en Latino America, y tampoco sabe sobre como las drogas entraron a ester pais. Claro, como lo va saber, si el senor nunca termino la universidad. Mas ignoracia, tan evidiente.

Despues sigue atacando a lopez diciendo que ella, al escuchar su presentacion para ser nominada a la posicion de concejal, habla sobre las situaciones dificiles de las viviendas , pero que ella, (basado en su opinion de el) - no a hecho nada para ayudar a esta gente. Pero, como sabe Bart que ella no ha reportado estas condiciones al departamento de edificacion, Derrepente, seria mejor que la srta. lopez reporte a Bart por operar un negocio en un edificio que no tiene certificado de ocupacion - esta es una violacion grande. Hay que pensarlo, si la srta. lopez no reporta las violaciones, porque es que la he visto en las cortes locales ayudando a inquilinos que tienen problemas con sus apartamentos cuales duenos no quieren reparar? Porque es que veo a la srta lopez apopyando por viviendas equitativas, y simpre leo sobre ella y su trabajo cuando el periodico jounal news escribe historias sobre problemas o temas relacionados a la vivienda? Bart...ya para.

Aparte de esto, el dice que la srta. lopez debe ser reportada a la comision de etica al no ayudar a la gente - estas palabras viene de este senor, que mando una boletin anomino encontra de la srta. lopez e hispanos en general, y bien campante tiene un lugar en la comision de planificacion de este pueblo, sin tener ningun temor de que el mismo sea reportado a la comision de etica

Estos comentarios de este senor son absurdos e ignorantes. Este persona sigue insultando porque cree que el esta correcto en sus palabras. Ya basta senor didden, de insultar a la gente hispana, que es trabajadora y luchadora. Ya basta de insultar a personas como la srta. lopez que es una mujer respetada por la comunidad entera - no solo en Port Chester pero por todo el condado. Que ha hecho el senor didden para esta comunidad, aparte de meterle juicio al pueblo, y tratar de obtener lo que quiere por medio de insultos y amenazas?

YA BASTA!!!

Who won the debate?

The Republican Presidential debate which took place last night on Univision was interesting. But which candidate had the best responses or ideas for Hispanic voters?

It is the opinion of this writer that none of the candidates had any good proposals or ideas to help or represent Hispanic voters. But, I don't think that readers disagree with this opinion. However, it is a good step forward that the republican candidates have participated in this debate to share with Hispanics their ideas, beliefs, and values.

Seven of the eight Republican candidates were present at last night's debtate. The only candidate who did not participate was Congressman Tom Tancredo, who thinks that by participating in such an event, in some crazy way it is helping undocumented Hispanic immigrants. Well, if there was anybody that lost in this debate, it was certainly him. Hispanic voters would have more respect for him if he had shown up to the debate and explained his stance on illegal immigration and Hispanics. Instead, he decided not to attend, and continue his bigotted platform somewhere else...

Quien Gano el Debate?

El debate de los Republicanos que tomo lugar ayer estuvo interesante. Pero quien tuvo las mejores respuestas y propuestas para los votantes Hispanos.?

Es la opinion de este escritor que ninguno de los candidatos republicanos tenian propuestas para mejorar y audar a la poblacion Hispana. Pero, no creo que ninguno de nosotros, pesabamos diferente. Pero, si es un buen paso que los Republicanos hayan participado en este debate, para compartir con la gente Hispana sobre sus ideas, creencias, y valores.

Siete de los ocho candidatos estuvieron presentes. El unico que no fue era el Congresista Tom Tancredo que piensa que al participar en este debate en Espanol y por una cadena Hispana, se esta ayudando a los Hispanos inmigrantes que indocumentados. Bueno, si hay alguien que perdio en este debate, el premio va para el congresista Tancredo. Creo que los votantes Hispanos hubieran tenido mas respeto por el si el hubiera explicado su opinion sobre la inmigracion illegal y su opinion sobre la comunidad Latina. Pero lo que decidio hacer es no asistir al evento, y continuar con su plataforma intolerante por otra parte.

Esta noche debate de candidatos presidenciales Republicanos

Esta noche, la cadena Univision, hara historia al transmitir el primer debate presidencial de candidatos Republicanos en espanol. El debate entre estos candidatos sera para adquirir votos Hispanos ya que en Enero empieza la temporarda de las Primerias, y en Noviembre, toma lugar el voto presidencial

Esta sera el segundo intento por esta cadena en organizar el debate republicano. La primera vez que lo intentaron, en Septiembre, solo el candidato, John McCain, habia decidido en participar. Si piensan porque, la respuesta es muy facil:

En Septiembre, todavia habia un chance en que la ley comprensiva sobre la inmigracion tendria el apoyo del congreso y senado para convertirse en ley y ayudar a muchos de nuestros hermanos y hermanans Hispanas para arreglar su situacion inmigratoria. Y solo el Senador John McCain, que habia escrito una propuesta inmigratoria con ayuda de representantes democratas habian introducido una legislacion para que sea respaldada por el gobierno estadounidense. Pero los otros candidatos estan opuestos en resolver este problema, y acuden a politicas publicas anti-inmigrante.

No se olvida de verlo, en el canal de Univision (Canal 6 en cable y empieza a las 7 p.m.). Sera chistoso ver como estos candidatos responden a la pregunta de inmigracion en frente de Hispanos. Creen que las narizes de ellos creceran en vivo?

Tonight Republican Presidential Debate in Spanish

On Sunday evening, Univision, the spanish -language network will be making history by broadcasting the first ever Presidential debate in spanish. The debate will be between Republican presidential hopeful who hope to steer the Latino vote starting in January during primary season.

This is the second attempt by the Spanish-speaking network to organize a debate among Republican presidential hopefuls. The first time they tried, right after the Democratic debate which was held in September, only John McCain was willing to debate. Gee, I wonder if it was because the immigration bill was still on the table, and none of them except for McCain, who at that time had co=sponsored a bipartisan immigration bill, was willing to talk about it.

So watch it, on Univision (channel 6 if you have cablevision at 7 p.m.!!) It will be great to see how they deflect the immigration question

Quien es Mary Dudas?

No se si ustedes se han dado cuenta de el nombre, "Mary Dudas," escrito por varias partes en Port Chester y tambien en el autopista 95. Entonces, quien es Mary Dudas, y porque es que su nombre, escrita en grafiti, es acompanado por las palabras, "for president," (para presidente) y "Vote for Mary Dudas," (vote para Mary Dudas."

Al hacer una investigacion y platicar con varias personas, el significado de este nombre y la razon por la que existe por todas partes, especialmente en Port Chester, es un poco inquietante.

Basado en la informacion obtenida por personas que dicen que saben sobre el significado de ester nombre, Mary Dudas es una mujer que, mientras estuvo drogada, estaba manejando por la Boston Post Road, y mato a dos o tres hombres Hispanos que habian terminado de trabajar tarde en la noche en el Port Chester Diner y estaban en camino a casa.

Yo no tengo que explicar esta connecion, ya que me parece evidente - entre las palabras "Mary Dudas," escritas por todo Port Chester y la muerte de dos o tres Hispanos; pero si es inquietante que esta conneccion existe - celebrando el nombre de una mujer blanca, no Hispana, y la matanza de dos o mas hispanos, en un pueblo donde el tema de la inmigracion y los estereotipos negativos que se ha marcado en los Hispanos que viven en este pueblo.

Que creen de este tema? Si alguien tiene mas informacion o otra teoria, por favor compartan sus ideas....

Who is Mary Dudas?

I dont know about you, but I've been seeing the name "Mary Dudas" in various parts of Port Chester and also along I95. So who is Mary Dudas, and why is her name written in graffiti all around town, accompanied with the words, "Mary Dudas for President" or "vote for Mary Dudas."

After doing some investigating and asking several sources, the significance of her name and the reasoning for it being everywhere, especially in Port Chester, is somewhat if not very disturbing.

According to certain people, who say that they know the story behind these tags on public property, Mary Dudas was the woman who, while high on drugs, struck and killed two or three Hispanic males who were walking home from their job, at at the Port Chester Diner, late at night.

I don't have to explain the connection, as I think it is pretty self explanatory - between "mary dudas" signs all over the village and the death of two or three Hispanic men, but it is disturbing that such connection or insinuation exists - celebrating a non-Hispanic white woman for killing two or more Hispanics instantly, in a village where issues on illegal immigration and the negative stereotypes branded on Hispanics exist....

What do you think? If anyone has any other information or would like to share their conspiracy theory, please do....
