While the "soap opera" (the phrase of the week, thanks to Jason Molino) of the Davis/Powers fight has provided many entertaining moments on The Batavian the past few weeks, Buffalo Pundit drags Alice Kryzan into the fray.
From the Buffalo News in 1998, Alice Kryzan spoke on the 20th anniversary of the Love Canal fiasco. (We just this year remembered its 30th anniversary):
Alice Kryzan, an attorney who represented Hooker and Occidental, said Hooker’s waste-disposal policies in 1978 “were entirely legal and well-ahead of the industry standards of the times.”
And, she said, scientific studies have yet to prove a link between chemical exposure of people living in the area and health effects.
In the more Democrat-than-thou debate, where do you think these three fall?
I don't see it as a who's
I don't see it as a who's more Democratic debate. I see it as who has the wisdom and judgment to serve.
Jack Davis has proven throughout this candidacy, and his past ones, that he does not have the "fire in the belly" needed to serve as congressman from this district.
Alice Kryzan defended the chemical polluters of Love Canal, yes - but she continues to defend them long after their checks stopped clearing. She argues in a law review article that Hooker/Occidental are the real victims of Love Canal - not the affected and afflicted families. That shows lousy judgment to me.
Its simple really. We used
Its simple really.
We used to call it "pickle in the middle".
Maybe even something like "the two sabotage each other so bad that the third candidate looked like the best of three evils".
May I further add that a possible women's vote is very crucial reguardless of party loyalties or demographics.
Finally, there is good old brown nosing when convienent like maybe barak-n-biden ?
