Finally, After Four Weeks, Some New Material On “Doctor” Moriarty’s “Russo Watch” WebSite

Attacks Axis Of Greed Republi-Crat Coalition, Saying Senator Russo And GOP Chairman Gilmore “Openly Conspired”, Truly A “Theater Of The Politically Absurd”

Says Conspiracy Of “Betrayal Plot” Was Launched In A Series Of “Secret Meetings” At Toms River Pizzeria

“Doctor” Jack Moriarty, the greedy Democrat publicist/political boss who grabbed $51,000 in “consulting fees” out of the Richard Larsen campaign, has added some new material to the Russo Watch WebSite he started after former Senator John Russo jilted regular Democrats and acted with Republican County Chairman George Gilmore and GOP Assemblyman James Holzapfel to establish the Axis Of Greed political payoff administration in Dover Township.

The new Republi-Crat consortium installed Russo’s son, John Russo Jr., as the last “Mayor” prior to the 2003 election of a new Mayor and Council approved by the voters in last November’s government change referendum, and chose former Republican “Mayor” Carmine Inteso as Deputy “Mayor” for the last year of the lame duck township committee.

Moriarty’s Russo Watch website, established immediately after the January 2nd organizational meeting, also apparently speaks for Larsen, Township Committeeman John Furey, Municipal Chairman Jeffrey Horn, former candidate Thomas Rodgers and former Chairman Christopher Colavito.

“I Don’t Like You Anymore” Said Furey
At The January 2nd Reorganization

Furey stood behind Russo Jr.’s chair on the dais at the reorganization and said, among about a hundred other things: “I don’t like you anymore; you don’t have any integrity”, echoing a comment by former “Mayor” Ray Fox a couple of years ago about overboss Holzapfel.

Fox charged Holzapfel controlled Republican policy in Dover Township and blamed problems of overdevelopment and excessive spending on Holzapfel who, he said, “had no integrity.”

Holzapfel Had “No Integrity”
But Fox Reappointed Him Anyway

But Fox went ahead and reappointed Holzapfel to his $6667 a month labor counsel patronage appointment anyway after Holzapfel agreed to let Fox be “mayor”, the same as Russo Jr. did at this year’s reorganization.

“How I Became A Republican Stoolie • • • Just Like My Daddy”

The Moriarty Website referred to the Russos as “the most self serving and nefarious political family” in Ocean County and promised reports including “How I became a Republican Stoolie • • • Just like my Daddy” and “What’s mine is mine, what’s yours is mine, what’s theirs is mine, it’s all mine, mine, mine” and “Thirty years of intimidation revealed.”

Although none of the promised “first hand” reports have yet materialized, there is some new material which appeared recently which claims the Russo “betrayal plot” began last August, well before the November election, after which Horn charged Russo Sr. with conducting a “bullet vote” campaign for Larsen, to the exclusion of candidate Rodgers, a charge that the Russos have denied.

Moriarty Charges “Secret Meetings At A Local Toms River Pizzeria”

“It was then that initial plans were made in a series of secret meetings at a local Toms River Pizzeria”, the Regular Democrat website says.

“By choice and design”, the Russos “had alienated all the locals” because of a “penchant for hyperbole” and a “demand for absolute veto power over all decisions, big and small”.

“Russo Jr. possessed none of the leadership skills and tenacity of his Daddy”, the site says.

The new material, dosed with Moriarty’s usual injection of hypocrisy, surfaced less than a week after Larsen and Furey joined with Russo Jr. and the Republicans to kill the township’s in-house law department, a decision made inevitable by the reappointment of Holzapfel and newly appointed #2 Township Attorney David Corrigan as labor counsels to share a bloated annual labor counsel budget appropriation of $160,000.

Axis Of Greed Lawyers Decided To Kill The
Law Department Back In September

Instead of fixing the department by eliminating the more wasteful expenditures like the $160,000 labor counsel appropriation mentioned above, a move which would save money and give the township legal representation not so directly connected with political patronage handouts, the Axis Of Greed “Famous Lawyers” coalition that is now running the township decided to kill the law department and turn its responsibilities over to an outside private attorneys who will bill $125-$135 per hour.

After the meeting at which Holzapfel was reappointed to his $6667 monthly annuity, Russo Jr., also an attorney, said Holzapfel has “provided service at a very attractive rate for many years.”
