Yen Chou Holds New Position On Political Involvement

I realize that some Politicians have no shame whatsoever. Hirim Menstruate is one... Jose Peralta is another...Tony Seminerio, Miguel Martinez, Larry Seabrook, Brian McLaughlin the list goes on and on!

Now it is time to add Yen Chou on the list! How dare she chose herself to lead a coalition on Political Action and Involvement. She never even voted until it was time to vote for herself.

People abhor Politics and are fighting back because people who have egos and no records seek public office. Yen Chou's ego enters a room an hour before she does.

She has never worked on behalf of the community...she never will. Running for office was about making her and her husband became rich beyond belief.

Make no mistake about it the people of Flushing dodged the political bullet on Election Day. A bullet that would have destroyed or community and its future.

Bearak Quits Civic Congress

Amid Scandal Corey Bearak has resigned as President of the Queens Civic Congress. It appears that Corey approved an Anti Jewish flyer using the hateful symbol of a swastika in the recent State Assembly special election. It was bad enough to use it...then he defended it.

This clearly will not bode well for Corey, and will damage him in his career as a lobbyist.

Corey has managed to dodge the bullet while under investigation with his former boss Sheldon Leffler who was jailed on campaign finance fraud.

We at Save Flushing Queens were the first to point out the inherent conflict of interest with Corey serving as a Lobbyist, Campaign manager and President of the Civic Congress.

Fare Well Corey...Its nice to see you go!

Speaker Quinn David Weprin: Tell Us What You Knew And When You Knew It

OK so while I was sunning myself in West Palm, it seems like half the City Council are either indicted or under a cloud of suspession or on the verge of getting indicted.

Am I surprised? No

Am I shocked? No

Am I appalled? Yes

But with all the media attention on disgraced Council Members Miguel Martinez and Larry Seabrook, one question calls for an answer: The two individuals most responsible for the budget Speaker Christine Quinn and Assemblyman David Weprin are silent over the scandal. The Speaker is rolling out new phony pony BS reforms... Weprin runs for his dads old Assembly seat while bragging about his service as Finance Chair. Can you imagine bragging about a record where millions of dollars are being misspent right under your nose. perhaps Davids rug blocked his vision (Sorry that was an unfair shot- but this guy must have been covering for the thieves).

Why isn't any investigative body calling these jokers in

and asking them questions under Oath?

We are Back!

I just returned from Florida... taking some much needed time off and now I am ready to delve into all that I missed. Over the next few weeks I will begin to look at some of those interesting things that Queens Politics has to offer.

Until then I am going to go outside and walk in the snow!

The Politics of Terence Park

As this New Year begins we at Save Flushing Queens are begining to wonder what is in store for us politically this year. We know about the State Asssembly and we are standing by Grace Meng she is a proven leader we only wish she would run for State Senate and rid us of the horror show of Toby Stavitsky. But what will become of the Democrats seeking to occupy the District Leadership positions and in particular what will happen to Terence Park?

Terence Park was chosen as on of our Political Winners for his crossing party lines to support Peter Koo over the candidacy of Yen Chou. It was a smart and courageous thing to do. It is clear this decision has revived him as a formidable community leader in Flushing. But how long can he maintain that position? Can he withstand the new leadership of SJ Jung? Time will tell.

We believe Terence is a good man who is not as politically astute as SJ. If so why would Terence speak at the Swearing In of Councilman Halloran? Terence sometimes makes decisions based solely on Politics and not always on the merit of the issue.

We watched him closely in this last City Council race and were impressed we are not so impressed with what we have seen since.

We at Save Flushing Queens hope Terence can beat Carpetbagger SJ, but if he is to be successful he must put community first and himself second. We believe he can. But decisions like fronting for Halloran are just plain stupid! Terence this is the begining of a new Political life take advantage of it! Don't ruin it!

2008 Political Winners and Losers

Save Flushing Queens is proud to have stood up for what we believe in this Political year and we intend to become more vocal each and every year because an independent voice of the people is needed to help save our community. We are pleased to announce a list of some of our Political Winners and Losers for the Year 2008



Political Winners



John Liu - Did anyone ever expect that a local Chinese American would rock the Political world and surge ahead in the Polls and win the Runoff to make Political History? No! But he did and he will forever be a part of NYC History and the First Winner of Save Flushing Queens



Peter Koo - Like John Liu a Political underdog who shocked the world with his Political Victory. It proves that a nice guy can finish first. We supported him as a political novice who wants to go to City Hall and shake things up! We need a Businessman who knows how to lead!



Isaac Sasoon, Terence Park, Martha Flores, Pauline Chu, Ethel Chen - winners for showing the strength to cross party lines and put community first a rarity in today's political world, they exemplify what leadership is all about.



Grace and Jimmy Meng - For working behind the scenes to defeat Yen Chou a horrific candidate who believes only in self interest. Serving the people was last on her agenda as evidenced by her campaigns insistence that Party was more important than community.



Helen Marshall - facing a primary opponent and defeating them with ease while other incumbents fought challengers and were either toppled or barely survived.



Queens Republicans - Picked up seats in districts that were overwhelmingly Democratic. Showed some life!



Political Losers



Yen Chou - Spend money alienate and threaten people run for public office after not voting in 10 years divide community with anti white and anti Jewish rhetoric. Call yourself an "Educator" after missing 64% of CEC meetings. Becoming the First Democrat in 100 years to lose to a Republican in Flushing for a City Council Race. Need we say more.



SJ Jung - Moves to Flushing to run for office. Does will only because of the Working Families Party, now has to answer question to not only the CFB but to the Feds about Voter Fraud, Illegal Expenditures and more Social Justice Jung may now have a chance to Indict people unfortunatly it is not by his willingness to stand up but by Subpeona.



Mike Olmeda - Campaign Manager to Yen Chou a robust man full of bravado has certainly been deflated. His divide and conquer strategy failed and was rejected. He should go back to candidates school and learn how to be civil. I believe he will be a loser for years to come.



Senator Toby Stavitsky - She backed Yen Chou all while screwing up Albany at the same time. This relic of a Politician ought to be retired immediately! Stavitsky is a perfect example of the disfunction in Albany she attends no events has no base in the Asian community, and she is a complete sell out to the special interest in Albany. She a Loser for seeing 2 Council Members who she supported lose.



Tony Avella - This pompous ass thought he was above all! he ran for Mayor and was lucky if he garnered his wife's vote. He head is so high in the clouds he forgot that he represents the people and not the people must bow in his presence.



Jerry Ianacce - What can we say-if we carved a district of only his house he would probably lose. This man will never understand that public service is about exactly that serving the public not about feeding his ego!



Queens Dems - Sometimes being loyal to a Political Party is asking too much and the Queens Dems can no longer put Mickey Mouse up and expect Voters will vote for him. People want change and want elected officials who will put community before Politics. As soon as we get rid of parties we will all be better.

So for the New Year may we as citizens be able to effectuate real change to rid Albany of those who do not serve our interest! Please God help us preserve our community and City.

A Blessed Holiday Season To All!

SJ and The Feds Flim at Eleven

Is This what SJ will look like when he meets the Feds and discusses his role with The Working Families Party and ACORN?

We here at Save Flushing Queens questioned SJ Jung as to why he would associate himself with Acorn and the Working Families Party some time ago in our Post we Said:

"In a recent mailer sent to voters, S. J Jung proudly announces that he has been endorsed by the notorious left wing radical group Acorn. Unfortunately for S. J, it is illegal for any candidate to be endorsed by an organization claiming to be a non-for-profit organization.

We guess that S. J Jung doesn’t care that the FBI launched an investigation into ACORN, because of allegations that the scandal scarred anti-American group has been accused of voter-registration fraud across the country.

We will give him a pass on taking the leftist Working Family Party’s line. We will even allow him to tout that he has been supported by legislators who wouldn’t know where Flushing was on a map, but those who are expected to lead with integrity and honor should be denouncing fraud not praising it."

I guess SJ will now have to sing to the Feds and talk about how a man who moves into Flushing a few days before the petition process can become such a viable candidate.

Who rasied his money?

Who ran his Field ops?

Who gave him the List?

Did he participate in scams?

Was campaign Finance Laws Violated?

Will This Damage SJ's Future?

SJ Ran for public office, now he can't hide from the Feds!
