RESIGN MR.SCHMITT!! I wish there was a way to make this font bigger…like a billboard on a roadway. You have proved to be nothing more than a career politician….in other words useless to society as a whole. This is about nothing more than your own self serving interests. This is exatly what the voters went out and voted against. Didn’t the upset election of Mangano teach you anything about the pulse of County residents? RESIGN you POS….go work in the private sector and let’s see if your work ethic warrants a raise like the rest of the working public.

The timing stinks as does the move. What are the repubs thinking? The dems are making too much out of this – especially given their legislative abuses in the past. How is any of this advancing the cause in Nassau county?

No if, ands, or buts, this cash grab needs to be stopped cold. The taxpayers just ran Tommy Tax Boy out of town for burdening us with similar thievery. Live within your means and tighten the belt Dipschmitt or get out of public service. The people have had it with the free tickets to board the Political Gravy Train.

“To be quite honest with you, if it would have required expanding or enlarging, increasing the legislative budget in order to do this, I would not have done it,” he explains.

A-hole. Typical politician – no clue. As if money already budgeted falls from the sky for free and isn’t provided by the taxpayers. Your budget is already criminally over-bloated with waste, you schmuck. Here’s a simple concept you incompetent lout: do something to EARN a 47% raise and then we’ll give it to you.
