Yesterday, we reported that Robin Yess was trying to make hay out of the normal way FOIL requests are handled by the county. This morning, a comment appeared on Robin's website. It supposedly came from Walter Frey although a later commenter questioned that. Somebody will probably make fun of the typos because Robin's supporters don't understand that when people post from their phones, typos happen.
We think it probably did come from Frey. The comment had to be posted by someone who understands the way the process works.
A couple of us know him although some of us never met him. Those of us at Mocking Robin who do know him think the republicans and the independence party made a big mistake in not nominating him. He was no doubt a better choice than the one they made.
Those who don't know Frey have no opinion on the question.
What none of us can figure out is why someone like Frey would ever hook up with a basket of nutjobs like the Liberty Coalition. He is obviously way out of their league.
Frey's comment from Robin's website:
The audio files are not posted. Only a transcript of the meeting. Then the minutes are approved by commituutee before being posted….I would bet that the transcript are not done yet or approved. Vicky is doing her job so don’t shoot the messenger. Vicky has return to a office dysfunctionality. With the loss of the person that kept that office together and running professionaly Karen Binder, god rest her soul. Don’t except things to be the same for a long time.

Curses. Foiled again.
Now Robin Yess is showing how far she has to stretch to make a point. She is complaining that the County told her she has to wait 7-10 days for a response to a Freedom of Information Law (FOIL) request. And she's trying to make it out like it's some big anti-Robin conspiracy. Can we spell PARANOID?
Come on. Letters like that are standard responses. First, they have to find the thing being asked for and then the lawyers have to make sure that it is eligible for release under Freedom of Information. If it contains sensitive materials like employee personal information, it can't be released.
The thing she is asking for is an audio file. It's not something a lawyer can just skim through. He actually has to sit down and listen to the whole thing.
So just chill out and wait your turn. Impatience is for children. Oh wait. For a second we forgot this was Robin Yess we were talking about.

More Kookery
The Kerhonkson Kook has obviously either lost his mind or is just trying to cause more damage to a well known republican. Now he's accusing Richard Cahill (a man who has proven total loyalty to the republican party many many times) of running for mayor of Kingston as the conservative party candidate only because he wanted to hand the election to Shayne Gallo.
This is stupid. Cahill has never done anything to help a democrat. Even the idea is idiotic. Besides, Polacco never had a chance and Levin was the worst possible candidate to every run for mayor of Kingston. Those two are as incompetent as Robin Yess who everyone knew was secretly backing Levin.
If the Kook actually believes this crap about third party candidates, why did his dizzy wife run on a made up third party line against the republican nominee last year? Why did he help Robin push 2 other candidates on that line? Why is he part of a group which wants to unseat 7 republican legislators using that same line?
This entire post on the kook's blog is about 2 things. He wants to hurt Cahill because Cahill dared criticize him and he wants people to think Robin made the right choice in backing Levin.
Why is the Kerhonkson Kook such a hypocrite?

Comment on Smokey's Blog
A comment appeared this morning on the Kerhonkson Kook's blog. We're just going to copy and paste it here. It speaks for itself. What more could we possibly add?
I do live in Accord and I used to support you and Manu. I thought the whole porno accusation was terrible. I worked the United Rochester phonebank in 2007 to get Manu elected. As a republican woman I thought it was great that we republicans had a woman on the town board.
Then I watched you guys change. You turned on everyone who helped you. Alot of us know how much Ohalloran and Chipman and others helped you. You screwed over all of them. Alot of us know about the stupid fight about the flagpole at the veteran’s memorial. We know how the power went to Manu’s head and how she went into the Youth Commission and started giving everyone orders.
We know how every time someone criticized either of you even a little, you turned your mean spirited poison pen on them. You are a very unpleasant man. Why anyone would want to associate with you is beyond me,
I was excited to be involved in politics 6 years ago. I thought I was finally doing something to help change things for the better. After I saw how dirty you made everything I got out. Thanks alot, Jon. You and Manu ruined it for me and a lot of others. You could have done some real good. You chose to make it all about you. You and people like you are exactly why people don’t like politics.

20 Questions
Since Robin and her Lollipop Guild are so hung up on who we really are, we'll make them an offer. Let's play 20 Questions. You ask 20 yes or no questions (no names in the questions, though) and we'll answer them. They still won't be able to figure out who we are.
It is interesting, though, that they have accused us of being everyone from Mr. Clean to the Stay Puff Marshmallow Man. Do these multiple guesses mean they have finally accepted that we are more than one person? Or are they just throwing darts in the dark hoping they'll hit something?
The real problem is that they can't stand a dose of their own medicine. They have insulted and dragged several people through the mud and nobody said anything. All we are doing is playing by their rules. If Robin's good pal can call people "weasels," we can call them stupid. The only difference is we have real proof and they just talk talk talk with nothing to back them up.

Geographic traffic
It seems that the Smokeboy has gotten his panties in a bunch over Mocking Robin saying he lives in Accord. On his wispy little blog, he quotes us as using Accord instead of Kerhonkson as his address. He has also purposely misquoted us, so we're going to give you the actual quotes. Just to clear the record.
The first one is almost accurate. He says that we wrote:
"We at Mocking Robin kept warning that schmuck from Accord but he was just too stupid to listen. He just had to keep sticking his ugly face inside the hornet's nest..."
What we actually wrote was:
"We kept warning that schmuck from Accord but he was too stupid to listen. He just had to keep sticking his ugly face inside the hornet's nest."
OK, close enough. And the next one is correct except for the extra dots he added after the word stupid, but we have no problem with that. He must have nervous fingers when typing:
"What's really sad is not that our good friend from Accord is stupid... It's that he is so stupid he thinks he's smart and doesn't realize that he is severely IQ deficient. A true useless idiot."
But the next one was edited together from two separate quotes. He claims we wrote:
"We at Mocking robin wonder what the stupid gnomelike asskissers from Accord think of this kind of dealmaking..."
What we really said was:
"We at Mocking Robin wonder what Robin's two Accord buddies think of this kind of dealmaking."
And
"Robin's pride is making her the laughing stock of Ulster county. Along with her nasty and stupid gnomelike asskissers from Accord."
None of this is really a big deal. We wrote what we wrote and we stand by it. He quoted us saying things about him and we don't deny we wrote them:
Turns out he actually lives in Kerhonkson. We apologize. To those of us in the north of the county, Accord and Kerhonkson are more or less the same place. We at Mocking Robin pride ourselves on accuracy. From now on, he will be the Kerhonkson Kook.

Liberty Coalition group photo
We heard from some people that Robin's Liberty Coalition may or may not have had a July 4th barbecue this weekend. We are disappointed that we were not invited although we do understand. A few of our little group would eat anything they see. Robin would have run out of food if we came.
We are lucky, though, that someone sent us the group photo of the three leaders of this Liberty Coalition. Can anyone recognize the one who ran for county legislature from Accord and lost big time?
