Brian Stack Ashamed of his Wife- In Arnold Diaz's "Hall of Shame"

Update 2/2/2011: In response to the expose and scandal brought out by FOX 5's Arnold Diaz Union City Mayor and NJ State Senator Brian Stack has sent this letter to residents:



In the letter he states that he had "no knowlede of anything being wrongfully done" and that outside political forces are responsible for the attacks on his personal life. He also adds that he is disgusted by the acts of his ex-wife Katia Stack. Who isn't disgusted with their ex? See the Graphix Avenger blog for a woman's take on that theme:

My commnet: Maybe Brian Stack would enjoy more support in Hoboken if we weren't so neglected in general by our State Senator. In the past, say what you want about Bernie Kenny but Hoboken was much better represented. Bring home the bacon! Ruben Ramos has so far been silent on this issue affecting his political pal.

Original Post 1/27/2011:

Brian Stack Busted by Fox News for his
Own Car Sharing Program - "Hall of Shame"

Fox News is reporting that Brian Stack, Union City Mayor, and a close political ally of Ruben Ramos is allowing his ex-wife to drive a City car at the taxpayers expense. The misappropriation of funds would appear to continue in Hudson County. Suggestion to Readers: Listen to the whole story below, this is more than just about his ex-wife's car.

Arnold Diaz of Fox News has Union City Mayor Brian Stack in his "Hall of Shame"

Here is a brief blurb from Fox News:

"At a time when many cities are cutting costs, Union City, N.J., appears to be wasting money.

Fox 5's Arnold Diaz has been investigating this for months. He found that some people are saying the mayor is playing favorites at taxpayers' expense.

The mayor's ex-wife, who is not a city employee, was driving a municipal car. She runs a daycare center housed in a city-owned building. And the center doesn't pay any rent to the city."

My Comment: NJ Assemblyman Ruben Ramos is rumored to view Brian Stack as an ally in helping fight back Mayor Dawn Zimmer's reforms. This investigation sheds some light on some of the dealings of Brian Stack's Administration that goes beyond car sharing. It will be interesting to see if Ruben steps away from Brian a bit or he just shrugs it off as business as usual. Another example of malfeasance in Hudson County! When will it end? ◦

Is it true the Dawn's husband gets free use of a Hoboken city owned bicycle?
he owns his own bike
But I hear he gets free air! ;)
give him a break, he is a GREAT mayor and a GREAT state senator...He is a high-profile public figure, he should have a car, and a driver and even a bodyguard...Look for one minute at all the good he has done for the city...great job with snow removal, helped out all the homeless people displaced from fire, gave winter jackets to all needy kids, gives away free turkeys for thanksgiving, free presents for Christmas, crime is down, unemployment rate is getting better in the city, just to name a few things....open your eyes dummies, look at the big picture!

All those things are great, but WE paid for it!
What about his ex-wife?
Are you hoping to get a job as his driver or bodyguard?
Also, the issue for me is less the car and more the daycare center that uses taypayer funded buildings without paying rent. That is worth a lot more than a car. But this is standard operating procedure for Brian Stack and Union City.
You give us a break you dope.

Nothing you said has anything to do with his EX WIFE. If this is what he does for his ex, imagine what he does for people he likes.

This is exactly why taxes are so stupidly high in this state, and MORONS like you sit with your heads up your butts.

How interesting and not unsurprising in Hudson County. I met the man shown in the video who drives him when Mayor Stack descended on the HHA during the 4th Ward special election allegedly in his capacity as Senator Stack. Mayor/Senator Stack and his driver/municipal employee sat together while each of us who signed-up had a 5 minute private audience with Stack and his driver/municipal employee. Curious.
investigating for months ? Shame on You Arnold! It should only take a few hours for anyone in Hudson county. Leave our mayors alone. This is way things have always been done around here. Try to find some of the guys with the no-show jobs. Or the ones with 5 jobs and 5 pensions!
Pay for your car
Is this the same Stack ex-wife who was Kimberly Glatts campaign manager when she ran for Mayor in Hoboken ?
He gives all those things to people because it doesn't cost him anything. Its all money from people the pay taxes. It's always good to give when it doesn't cost you. That is why people think Stack is good person. He gives with tax payer money.
Someone needs to Arnold Dias to the Russos. ;)
