Mr Ed, as a resident I would like to give you this advice, The group of your supporters on Patch that think they are helping you ( ref,hank,val paz,ts,NDW) are the same supporters of the ex Mayor Dapuzzo and they did the same thing on Patch for him as they are for you. It didn't work for him as he not only lost to the current Mayor but he was badly beaten. I leave you with this Mr Ed “If you focus on success, you’ll have stress. But if you pursue excellence, success will be guaranteed.”
― Deepak Chopra

The Patch people never post my comments so I'll try again.
If they allow all the politicians to post signs they should be fair and allow businesses to post signs as well, but we all know "they" are not fair.

Has anyone seen the Mr Ed ads on Patch yet? I'm sure he has raised enough money from the DWP and their union to run ads on Patch.

Chardel Vyjial, this article is about signs being put up all over town. It has become an issue because of the political signs that go up in October and early November. I dont understand why your comments on this post is about Ed Sinclair? What does he have to do with it. It appears it just gives you another chance to bash him and the other candidates who you do not support. The sign ordinance as introduced would effect all signs in the town both Political and Garage Sale and civic organization ect. If you have something constructive to say about the signs in our town or the ordinance please do so. If you want to continue to bash other candidates to support the one you are voting for then do so in the correct article.

Ralph thanks for the posting instructions. So I''l make the post more about signs at your request. So I wonder if the DPW union is going to by signs for Mr Ed? Also since the DPW will be the group that picks up stray signs how do you think they will handle the bosses signs Mr Ed?

Chardel Vyjial you really are amazing come to our town and think you know all about it,well guess what you don't and you should try and understand that you are an egotistical human being trying to act like a real person in a real world,Danny your really trying again.

Like I told your other team members like: ref/ralph/ts/lorrie ect Thought you guys would try somthing new this time since it worked so poorly for you in the Dapuzzo election. What's the saying? “When it is obvious that the goals cannot be reached, don’t adjust the goals, adjust the action steps.” – Confucius

@ ref Our town? again your speaking for a group huh? who is the "OUR" ?

ref remeber this “All that we are is the result of what we have thought.” – Buddha

Chardel Vyjial, who are you caling a racist?? You lied about googling my name and stated all you could find was 768 Mexicans as if there was something wrong with that. What do you have against Mexicans?? In a very short time you have become a real pain in the patch. Few pople have that skill or lack of so maybe Mr. ref was right Dan is back! Ugh!

Until the Ordinance addresses both Political signs separately and create an Ordinance for the remainder (which I believe can be done separately within legal parameters) so that the remainder of organizations would not be affected, it should be put on hold and discussed with the new sitting Council.

Val I suggest you read Ralphs post pointing out Indian donors and asking why.

Ralph I will get the word out to the 2000 or so families that belong to Hindu Samaj Temple of Mahwah what the supporters of Mr Ed want to post on Patch.

Ralph....post every last one of them. Most have the same last name and work for the same company. Chardel Vyjial does not represent the wonderful members of the Hindu Samaj. Not sure he even lives in Mahwah or if that is his real name. How dare he raise the threat of getting the word out to the membership about anyone. If the leadership of the Samaj knew how he misrepresents himself they would show him the door with a loud slam. Unlike him they are honorable people. SHAME ON YOU CHARDEL! Or is it DAN?

Ralph, Please listen to your buddy NDW. And as for who I am you shall see when I speak out about this. Unlike you and your friends on here I don't have to hide under a fake name sir.

CV: Bring It, please. I stil think you are Dan W but in the odd chance you are not I hope the leadership of the Hindu Samaj is present for your speaking out ceremony! What is fake is misrepresentation. Actually in your case fraudulent. You represent yourself as a concerned Mahwah citizen but post on every patch Board in the Cty. BULL! Your Mahwah Patch posts are totally and entirely slanted to Team Laforet, easy to look up the history. Double click your name and read it and weep. Another fraud. If you are not Dan I hope they are paying you well enough. But when the Hindu Samaj hears about you I am confident they wil deal with you properly.

And Mr Mark your history show the opposite. You can think I'm anyone you want sir. But I don't need to hide in shadows like your group does. I am voting for the Mayor and I know you are not. But what I'm curious about is this why does it bother you that posts on the Mahwah Patch that deal with the county of Bergen and The State of NJ and the national election are put on the Mawah patch for people to read and post there opinion. I know your total focus is bashing anyone running against you but others like to talk about other topics besides Mahwahs election.

Chardel....I have never disguised my preferences or name and have never, ever posted anywhere except Mahwah Patch. You, like anyone else can put up any post on any subject you want and the readers will judge the desirability of same. I have never represented myself as anyone but myself unlike yourself. i.e. Hindu Samaj and shame on you for that, I don't know any other posters here but a few are like minded. You Sir are like a burp in a blizzard and I've not seen a single positive reaction to any post you have made here. YES you are a pain in the Patch! I do believe you are a paid PR flack or have some relationship with ADPP?

I am sending a copy of all your posts to the leadership of the Hindu Samaj on Monday. Chardel, you will be outed and we will see what they say about your point of view and threats to advise the membership. as if you were one. I'm sure they will be grateful to you for dragging them into this nasty political campaign. Kind of antithetical to those gentle people.

Mahwah: Low taxes & good schools and a safe town thanks to our police force.
GREAT AWARD

I have contacted several sources and now have contact points for the leadership of the Hindu Samaj. I will share with Mr.NDW privately and let them react to Chardel's misrepresentations. The end is near Chardlel! You will be outed as a FRAUD!

Mark you could just ask me.....if you would share your true identity I would call you. Remember you stated I'm a paid poster to post on Patch. lol You and Ralph should charge a cover charge for you little act.

I believe the topic has to do with election signs not the Case/Vyjial debates!

Hey patch,you delete the majority of my post for what ever reasons you decide but when someone like CV calls someone an idiot its perfectly ok,whats the problem patch

I feel let down by this council. Before LAST year's election they claimed it was too late to address this problem, but promised to do so once the election was over. They had a full year to mull over various ideas and concerns and fix it.

If the current proposal is not satisfactory, there were plenty of ideas offered by residents and organizations:

- Designate a specific area at 4 or 5 major intersections in town, where 1 event-specific announcements by non-commercial/civic/political organizations can be posted, 4 weeks prior to an event, limited to 1 sign per cause at that location and up to a certain size. Everyone's treated the same, volunteers can still advertise their pancakes, everyone's still permitted to exercise their free speech. Basically super-sized community bulletin boards.

There were ideas about allowing signs, but requiring a distance seperation (e.g. 1 mile) between signs benefiting the same cause or event or by the same organization.

I don't recall all the good ideas. I'm sure many more were offered.

But for this council to let the year pass - and now to avoid making ANY decision ONCE AGAIN using the SAME excuse - means they didn't stick to their promise. I suppose no decisions on anything will be made in town on anything any more because everyone's only worried about being re-elected? Time to take note who's avoiding doing their job!

Come on Andy,it was your Mayor who wanted to change the ordinace because he didn't want anyone who might run against him to have their signs put up,it wasn't only the council Andrew.

You are 100% correct Andy.

Gottardo I dont think it should have anything to do with $$$'s (resources) Resources = Support The more supporters the more $$$ . I think this year is off the table now, but it would be nice to see something done for next years election this fall before any candidates are announced.

Gottardo I hear your opinion but I still think how a candidate spends his or her supporters money and or their own should not be regulatated by the town, Plus signs can cost all different amounts by the materials you use and the stakes or numbers of colors or vendor you use. I think size should be regulated.

If I recall it was the current Democratic mayor who had his huge signs everywhere. The only one that was removed Andy was the one on MacArthur in fear that it would get dislodged and land on a car. Now the same candidate is trying to limit the free speech of everyone else once he was elected. Does that not seem odd to you too?

Abby Mahwah is a non partisan town but since you want to try and lable people lets look at that. Mr Ed: for the unions/for bigger goverment and you want to lable him a republican??? thats interesting. Mayor Laforet against the unions/for smaller government and you lable him a Democrat??? I think the problem your going to have this year is selling that. Mr Eds reason for wanting to run for Mayor "because I always wanted to be Mayor" is that the slogan we will see on his signs? or will it be the one I don't have money to run may campaign because know one is supporting me so lets set limits to the dollar amount we can all spend on signs and ads? How come Mr Ed missed the filing date for his conrtibutions on NJ ELEC ? he had a fundraiser didn't he?

ABBY/Ralph-
Here you are again talking about the "Democratic Mayor", the one who has been proposing tax cuts and reduction of municipal payrolls, while you support a candidate supported by unions, and union members, and in favor of perpetuating waste. My only question is what collor will Sinclair's signs be? Rainbow? Who is the Republican esablishment in Mahwah and the County supporting? I am embassased to read the posts supporting a candidate that is the poster-child - no pun intended - of the Democratic party, and disparaging the candidate that has demonstrated real Republican principles. Pelase explain yourself.

Abby - do you have any opinion on the ACTUAL subject matter?

Would you rather see a repeat of last year's sign-war?

Are you in favor of coming up with a more "controlled" use of election signs (specially now that school board candidates would also put up their signs for a November election)?

Do you have any suggestions how the concerns of residents be addressed who do not like the over-abundance in signs in some locations - but still allow the occasional signs by civic organizations?

I know it's a lot to expect for campaign workers like yourself - but do you have ANYTHING to contribute on the ACTUAL subject of this discussion?

ABBY-
So, if guilt by association is your rationale, the Republican party should be running away from the union supported Sinclair, right? As for the Mahwah Republican party's charade, I wonder if anyone has the guts, from the Republican Freeholder on down the line, to ask Sinclair to explain his position on tax cuts and reductions in municipal payrolls, including his position on challenging the union that supports him if and when the time comes. So far, Sinclair hasn't said anything, probably because he has nothing of value to contribute. Wanting to be mayor and offering to be the substitute ambulance driver, snowplow operator, or telephone receptionist as his only statement to the media leaves me questioning what exactly he in this race to accomplish. Again, your position is untenable. You can't be Republican and support a guy with Sinclair's history and support base. The "Democratic Mayor" has demonstrated, not just talked about, things that we Republicans support - funny that you challenge that. The only explanation is that you are really a Democratic Party member playing a role here to disparage a Mayor that threatens your cohorts. You are very confused.

Abby, Please don't lie. He is a registered Independent. Thats a fact with Bergen County.

Chardeleen go to your room, you are really a big paid jerk

ref I think your comments could get you suspended from Patch for breach of user agreement. I don't think your comments that I'm a paid poster & a big jerk, plus making fun of my name will score any votes for Mr Ed and may get you thrown off Patch.

Help Jessica!!! We need a major distraction... maybe a faux editorial: Meteor Strike in Fardale, or, Governor Christie Comes-Out in Drag.

Gottardo, The mental image of the second one could be worse then the meteor hitting!

Ref, you sitting on here for all these hours and not getting paid? Man you must not have a life. Thanks for apologizing for 33% of your ignorant comments, it means a lot to me.

Abby can I ask you a question? How much are you getting paid to be a paid poster for Mr Ed.? Do you get paid per post or per day?

"Democratic Mayor" cutting taxes and reducing size of government, "Republican" supported mayoral candidate supported by unions and fighting tax cuts. Who are the real Democrats? Why so much trouble answering this simple question, and why waste so much time deflecting? Actions are what matter. So far the only person trying to accomplish anything even remotely in keeping with Republican ideals is the "Democratic Mayor".

Chardel I signed on after hearing you called me out there was no need to do that . All you have to do is ask our Mayor for my cellphone number and call me at any time I am always very accessible. That being said I am no longer on the executive board for the Republican Club. I had nothing to do with setting the date as I too have a conflict as it is on the same night as my Freeholder meeting. As for my children do not ever go there, it only makes you look ignorant. There are many nights that my family like many others in Mahwah childrens extra curriculiar activities causes us to figure out how we get to 3 or 4 places at 1 time. I thank God I have a great wife who helps get it all done. Many the event I attend for freeholder with my children due to trying to get it all done. As for a Democratic or Republican Club endorsing in non-partisian towns it happens all the time. The fundamental reason to have the club in town is to help elect people who have similiar beliefs of the club. Just because you are non-partisian does not mean you stop being partisian for candidates. Any other ?s please call me.

Robbie is the republican club endorsing Mayor Bill? I see his vote for Laforet sign on the same page as Republican club? Is this really Robbie Hermansen? I don't think the Bergen Freeholder would miss spell PARTISAN 3xs CURRICULAR and SIMILAR

Interesting explanation on partisan politics. I suppose that also means if you are a candidate in a non-partisan town, the partisan faithfuls put aside their principles and vote for the nicest guy, or the one with the best beard, or the one who is running against the guy they dislike, etc.regardless of that candidate's political philosophy or leaning. Quite a lesson in civics, Mr. H. To paraphrase an old favoite Dylan song, your principles, my freind are "Blowin in the Wind."

So can I put my Obama 2012 sign at the curb or not?!
