We at Mocking Robin aren't quite sure who Robin Yess thinks she's fooling with her laughable statements about Langdon Chapman. Her entire position is basically If he ain't from Ulster, he's no good.
Yeah. That makes sense. Take the taxpayers' money and spend it on less than the best just because we want to keep it inside the county.
Now, we know that there are plenty of really good lawyers in Ulster County but that doesn't mean that we have the very best available municipal attorneys. That's not an insult to any lawyer in Ulster. If you need a neurosurgeon, you don't choose the top cardiologist. The cardiologist is probably the best guy to take care of your heart for you. But that doesn't make him a neurosurgeon. Actually, he would probably be a pretty bad neurosurgeon.
We don't just need a lawyer in general. We need the best municipal specialist our money can buy. Just because someone is from Ulster doesn't make him the best.
You would think that Robin, seeing as she's always talking about being fiscally conservative, would want our tax money spent on the very best lawyer we can find. Within driving distance, Chapman is the best. He's one of the most skilled municipal attorneys in the state and we're lucky to have him for such a low price. Plus, we don't have to pay him any benefits because of the way Terry Bernardo negotiated the deal.
So what's the problem? Are we supposed to choose our county legislature attorney by territory? Unless we're dogs marking a tree, that approach is pretty much worthless.
Robins nest in trees. Dogs mark them. Creative visionaries use the wood to build beautiful homes.
That's the difference between Terry Bernardo and Robin Yess. While Bernardo is looking for ways to build our county up, Robin and her band of merry misfits are peeing all over everything and everybody, trying to mark their territory.
The one truly insightful comment is that Robin does not and cannot build anything. Like a kid on the beach, she only gets joy from kicking over the other kids sandcastle. If you look at the record, could not get elected and she ran twice, could not build the Republican party, and failed after 8 or 9 months, and now is leading this angry little band of misfits, as you call them, down the path of personal assassination. How sad, bright woman, overwhelmed with anger.
