A quick comment up front, Save Jerseyans:
Until someone else steps up and starts knocking heads on behalf of the taxpayers, I’m going to be in the draft Dennis Malloy camp for 2017. Or even Judi; she’s usually a bit too liberal for me but she’d represent an upgrade from Steve-o.
Listen to this and find out why! On Tuesday, New Jersey Senate President Steve Sweeney called NJ 101.5’s Dennis and Judi Show to explain his lack of enthusiasm for a proposal to allow self-serve gas stations in New Jersey (translation: he’s going to block a vote). The hosts’ responses were amazing:
“Poison to the system.”
Again: A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! And accurate.
I won’t even re-litigate for you, right here, the many reasons why I, like Dennis Malloy, disagree deeply with Steve Sweeney’s governing philosophy. We don’t even need to get that far! Steve Sweeney’s Senate, contrary to the his remarks on NJ 101.5, wastes our time ALL of the time, Save Jerseyans! On stuff that’s a whole lot less consequential than self-serve gas stations. Like passing state regulations for breast milk banks and pig crating farms that don’t exist in the state. They just banned bestiality in case you just missed it. Or how about the recent non-binding resolution (and therefore pure political theatrics) condemning the Exxon settlement?
Steve Sweeney’s body has had ample opportunity to seriously and soberly tackle this state’s “big” problems. They’ve opted instead to play kick-the-can. Kudos to Dennis and Judi for making that fact plain for all to hear on statewide radio.
BTW- Do you agree with Dennis’s opinion of Senator Sweeney? Click here; a bunch of South Jerseyans are planning a recall rally. I’m betting Dennis will cover it!

“Is this the most important issue facing New Jersey right now?”
What? That bestiality bill he just passed was?
Love Dennis and Judy!
Good job !!!
Wow. And there in lies the problem. Our elected officials really believe they are entitled to rule without a representative consensus.
I like Dennis, Judi, she’s cool, they seem to compliment each other.
I loved when you schooled Sweeney on the difference between a Democracy and a Republic, Dennis….I assume you might read comments…a lot of New Jersey feels the same way. At this point it doesn’t matter who runs for office as long as they don’t share the black hole ideology of tax & spend….well done!
Dennis was a bit rude to his guest!
“That’s my opinion. I’m entitled to my opinion. You’re entitled to your opinion.”
Governing by opinion. “That is the way the system is supposed to work.”
No it’s NOT!
You are supposed to represent the interests of the voters.
Next in line for a blue corvette?
Dennis: get of the :”Shock Jock” schtick and quit pandering to the Rush Limbaugh audience of the “quasi right’
element and get down to some serious, non-rhetorical insight. You don’t have a political future. Your no less a Sweeney critic than I am, your pandering to get a higher profile.
Can anything get through?
Doesn’t look like it!
Ugh, I give up. HEY moderator, when you get around to it, could you please release one of my comments and delete the other duplicates? Thanks.
Sweeney is also refusing to let the PARCC and common core bills that passed in the House, unanimously last month, to come to the floor of the Senate as well. There are 4 of them.
