Not Much to say, read on and make your own decision. Let's just say he lives up to his sterotype. I don't know why the links are not clickable as they usually are when I post.

He's also connected with a guy named Kevin Ingram who was busted in Florida about 14 months ago for running a money laundering operation for Pakistani terrorists. Ingram used to work at Deutsche Bank in NYC and is now cooling his heels in a Federal Penitentiary somewhere.....

Toricelli is an assclown who is DIRECTLY RESPONSIBLE for the degradation of the intelligence gathering capabilities of the USA.

That, along with the fact that he is a crooked SOB and hasn't done anything in the 20 years he has been in Congress except make the USA weaker should be enough for the people of NJ, still reeling from the thousands killed on 9/11, to terminate him.

Forrester will make an excellent Senator.

Of course, rampant voter fraud in the Northeast hasn't even been discussed, much less investigated or stopped, so the rats can steal this election if it gets remotely close.

Hey, we interact with the Sopranos every day. Why watch something fake when we have the real thing right here.


Yep, can't wait, on a bad night though, Yom Kippur, a high, holy day for the people of the Jewish faith, very bad timing for the TV professionals, I am sure the ratings will suffer on this one night.

Show me your company and I will tell you what you are. As far as I am concerned we have 100 corrupt Senators, they should have kicked him out for good.

Yep, Forrester will make a great Senator for NJ and the USA; however, he must run a good campaign first and then win. He made a big blunder last week when he proposed a gas-increase to fund the Superfund (toxic waste sites) clean-up sites. I hope this will blow over, his ratings dropped after he said that.

The damage control was swift and Forrester came out the next day and said the Star Ledger editorial board misunderstood him. They asked him three times to clarify..Hopefully the people will forget.

Did you mean that you are known by the company you keep?

HOW DARE YOU PERPETUATE THESE UGLY STEREOTYPES! Clemenza is going to call the Italian Anti-Defamation league, founded by an honest Italian American businessman named Joe Colombo. This is racial profiling at its worst!

Yes, in post 10 you mentioned the Ethics Committee,,,and I pointed out that they are all guilty because they protected him by not throwing him out.

"Show me your company and I will tell you what you are." (Is a saying)


Maybe he has something on them.

Yes, you are judged by the company you keep and by keeping company with Torricelli tells me how the other 99 Senators really are. As far as I am concerned they are no different since "the torch" is still there.

I was not talking about you I was talking about the 99 other Senators. I know a committee did the investigation but the committee represents the Senate and I am sure they have much more dirt on him than what is in the press.
