Even the stooges know to wear helmets …

Just when one thought that perhaps a wall had finally stopped local political nonsense, someone blew through the wall in a gobsmackingly unique new way as well as in this instance without a helmet.

At last night’s city council meeting, its longest continuously serving member, Senior Citizens Committee Chair Noel DiBona, pretty much trashed his political career not once but a handful of times.

DiBona has long sought to move up the political pecking order, having run unsuccessfully for various countywide elected offices.

Even so, Boner is widely assumed to be assuming that he will eventually be the mayor of Quincy someday even though his support in the most recent city council elections was down a fair amount from past elections. 

His fatal stunts which undermined his dreams? 

Objecting to and so postponing until the next council meeting a handful of proposed ordinances that were precipitated as mandates care of the campaigns of the winning slate of challengers who wiped out all but him from among the now former supermajority slate of obsequious vassals of the mayor on the city council.

The proposed ordinances ranged from seeking only proper transparency from the long opaque Koch Maladministration, typical levels of finance oversight for a city auditor for Quincy’s City Auditor, cancel controversial raises for council members and the mayor, allowing input by the public at the city council meetings, and seeking answers from the City Solicitor.

Given the mostly blowout loses by Boner’s former council colleagues, arguably the only logical explanation for his latest changing of his spots after he acknowledged that he had woefully misread the sentiments of local voters after they went to the polls last fall is that spots rarely change.

In turn, as well as needless to say, Boner’s posing objections last night will likely not help him realize his ambitions for higher office, if not in fact more likely irreparably trashed his hopes and dreams. 

Granted, there are some arguably picayune technical criticisms of the proposed ordinances, however, delaying moving forward with the proposed ordinance for but a single council meeting to see their proper consideration by the City even if only as protest votes would still send a dire message to Quincy’s overly long ongoing Don Tommaso Kocha.

Watching the springing of a trap?

One can thus only reasonably assume that in response to the proposed ordinances, a capo in La Kocha Nostra “suggested” to Boner that he be the first to go over the top and into the wire in no man’s land.

Further adding to suspected mischief, both the City Clerk and the Don Kocha’s consigliere Giacomo “Dim” Timminsino offered up most curious reads of Rule 23b to support Boner’s objections and which in turn so delayed referring the proposed ordinances along committee until the next and oh so ironically scheduled city council meeting on Ground Hog’s Day. 

What do we do next porcupine?

After all, one would think that the City Clerk and Dim would have not of done what they did as both are under fire in court in one case over the clerk’s allegedly rejecting voters’ signatures to a ballot question so as to trim his most curiously grifted 89% raise and as well as that Dim is the lead counsel in another case wherein the Don is taking heavy fire over charges of violating the state and federal constitutional law by using taxpayers money to commission religious statues as well as place them on a taxpayers’ paid for public building, not to mention that Dim is 0 for around 10 for taking cases it has lost up on appeal and again lose.

In short, as well as yet again however, only in Quincy …
