Hero to Zero Series, Part II


Here is another instance where the Juniper Park Civic Association applauds your accomplishments and touts your accomplishments until....you disagree with their leadership which causes them to attack and malign you.

Congressman Anthony Weiner has proven that he is a dynamic and intelligent public servant. Consequently, during the last mayoral campaign Congressman Weiner's numbers began to soar against Freddy Ferrer. This was due in part to the Congressman's energy but mostly because people began to hear what Weiner had to say. Even the Juniper Park Civic Association in their October 2002 issue of the Juniper Berry had great things to say about the young and bright politician from Queens.

*"(Weiner) an ascending force in New York Politics"

*"Weiner is a tireless worker, smart and committed to policy and a fighter for his district"

*"The New York Post named him one of the 'up and comers' of 2001"

*"(Weiner) list of leader in the 21st Century"

The above statements are glowing accolades from the JPCA and strong endorsements for higher political office. As we all know, all good things must come to an end. Especially when you disagree with the Almighty Bob Holden.

In the October 2005 Juniper Berry, Congressman Weiner goes from a "tireless worker" to "someone you would not want next to you in a fox hole"

In a negative article entitled "Introducing the "Real" Weiner", the Juniper Park Civic Association once again shows its true colors and fickle nature.

Congressman Weiner goes from "a fighter for his district", to "when the going gets tough, Anthony Weiner is gone"

In the attack piece, Mr. Holden has the audacity to ask the rhetorical question, "Are we being too political for a civic association?" We here at the Patriots should not dignify that question with an answer, but we will.

The Juniper Park Civic Association is no longer a civic association but a vile political machine that operates to effectuate the political aspirations of a few maniacal egomaniacs. They will stop at nothing and use any means necessary to realize their grandiose delusions of winning an elected position. The majority of people in Middle Village and Maspeth are decent, hardworking people and know a fake when they see one. Thankfully they are seeing a fake in the Juniper Park Civic Association.

If you are ever allowed to attend a Juniper Park Meeting, (you wont because they have closed the doors to outsiders and interlopers) you will notice the absence of political leaders from all levels of government. Everyone is beginning to realize that today you maybe the hero but rest assured, tomorrow the JPCA will soon label you a zero.

Bob Holden actually had to ask if the Juniper Civic has become a Political organization. He knows he is leading it so he and Tony Nunziato can get elected. We see through them! First they use the Berry to attack people they want to run against now they mail BS to members using Due money! They have become amazingly brazen.

I remember that Article I was shocked at the title I thought it offensive especially since I picked up a copy at Our Lady of Hope. Clearly the title is of a sexual nature! Shame on those heathens at the JPCA. Congressman Weiner and I differ on Pro Life issues but I still would treat him in a dignified way, after all his Position deserves our respect not necessarily our vote. Please JPCA take the high moral ground for once.

An open Note to Commissioner Lewendowski:

The upper ball fields in Juniper Valley Park do not belong to the special interest ball clubs that play in for profit leagues and are designed for profit! The fields belong to the people! Not the best players from Long Island signed on to play for Midville. The Ball Fields are for the Taxpaying City Residents.

For the young men and woman who are looking for a place to play. Do you know how frustrating it is to go to the park with my children and a few friends and see perfectly good ball fields just sitting unused? My Tax dollars paid for the renovation, and my tax dollars were paying for the Dodgers to keep the fields locked! Shame on the Parks Department for allowing this! Shame on the elected officials for allowing this! Shame on anyone who supports or condones this behavior! As a member of Our Lady of Hope I just received a letter in my home about this miscarriage of justice linking me to this site. I hope this organization has the moral courage to stand up for the "Real" people of Middle Village, not community board 5 members who are President of a civic and use power to advance themselves. Commissioner stand up for the little guy, the ones who are not corrupting the system!

As a Middle Village resident I have become increasingly tired of the blatant politicizing of a once great civic. Sorry that the JPCA has become so irresponsible. Mr. Holden you are to blame. You are failing to see just how many members have become tired of your antics!

I wonder if that Cartoon was done by a member of Bob Holden’s City University class. You see the self proclaimed King of Juniper is a professor who uses his students to perform his political dirty work and then gives them better grades another unethical thing Bob Holden is involved in! Tell us Bob who did this cartoon?

You do a great job of telling half the story. Do any intelligent readers want to know why Weiner was criticized (you conveniently left that out)

The JCPA went after Weiner because he favored the cross harbor tunnel and the thousands of trucks it would have put on Maspeth's streets.

So, Patriot, what's your motive here? Do you favor cross harbor and a truck terminal in your backyard? Or is your real motive to smear Holden? I like how you disguize it by cutting and pasting the history of the mets from other website. How clever - you really had us all fooled.

Hey Patriots do a piece on Bob Holden’s house. He runs an illegal business and had illegal work done in his home. By guess who?: A Buildings department official who is a member of his executive committee that’s who.

Hey Holden's nose grows that much more every time he lies. I wish I was a professor at NY Tech so I could abuse my students and force them to do my personal, political and civic work.

Ah, Holden and the Crap Pack--the chickens are coming home to roost!

You're all student council weenies who have grown up and still think you know better than everyone.

You're being called out for exactly what you are--egomanics, hall monitors, small minded tyrants who take pleasure in pestering your neighbors. Your just deserts.

Hey Tex.. Why dont you tell us our motive?? Stay tuned for parts III, IV and V! Oh and by the way, we have a few Yakeee "cut and pastes" coming soon. We are happy that you would take the time out to comment on this piece. Keep em coming!

Hey Tex you missed the point it is OK to disagree with an elected official it is ok to criticize an elected official. It is ok to stand up for what you believe, but you can't cross the line. Calling the man a "Weiner" and maligning his character is the wrong way. Have you noticed that no elected officials attend JPCA meetings anymore? Here is a list of those who boycott this Political organization:

Assemblywoman Marge Markey
Congressman Anthony Weiner
Congressman Joe Crowley
Councilman Dennis Gallagher
Councilwoman Melinda Katz
Assemblyman Andrew Hevesi

Who is left?

Senator Serf Maltese is still welcome JPCA hasn’t turned on him yet but it will happen! After all JPCA’s Political Newsletter is paid for by the Serfster.

Mayor Michael Bloomberg made the quickest exit ever to avoid Bob Holden, and now will never again visit the JPCA because of the angry barrage of letters that are personally insulting.

No one left! Yes it is true the have no relationship with local leaders.

Tex I am sure you are part of the gang of 5 that believes they are above the law, and above reproach. The JPCA is alienating every one of the local elected officials and has had successive losses. JPCA has to learn that people can agree to disagree and find common ground on other issues. They can't because of the maniacal leadership that is being provided.

Sop Tex keep kicking members out of you meetings, keep alienating elected officials keep spewing your hatred. You will be yesterday’s news!

PS: I strongly denounced the Cross Harbor plan and attend the EDC Rally and was a JPCA member.

Tex must be short for Texas Holden. Hey Bob’s actions smear his own image. Except for the few devout followers Bob's constant "WARS" have hurt him the civic and the community. He declares war on his own civic members, he declares war on his elected officials, and he even declares war on Dogs. He used to hate Walgreen’s and 7-11 until he cuts a deal. Bob it is illegal to use your civic to put out a magazine so you can profit.
He is a thief he is a liar and he is a phony.

So Tex take a real look and stop drinking the Kool-Aid.

Hey Patrick this is Queens no Yankee Crap, leave that to the other losers.

Tex ask Bob if he ever bribed an elected official.

Then ask him if he has an illegal basement.

Then ask him if he uses his civic money for Political Campaigns.

Then ask why JPCA never gives a financial report.

Then ask if he uses the Civic equipment and resources for his business.

Then ask if he uses his students at NY Tech to do his Political work for grades.

Then ask if he ever used his students to personally profit.

Then ask where the Midville Dodger money went.

Then ask why he illegally removed 2 Counsels from the Civic.

Then ask how much money he got from 7-11 and Walgreen's.

Then ask if he made a deal with Police to release his Graffiti vandal son.

Then ask what he did to get his wife the job at the Governors office.

Then ask if he ever was abusive to his family.

I could go on for ever but I will let the results of the investigation speak for itsself until then Tex stay away from Mr. Holden he is on a slippery slope down!

We know that Bob is political he just ran for political office and lost!

Tony Nunziato family ran and lost.

But the biggest losers are Juniper Civic members because the organization under the leadership of Dick Shick and Ernie Chirichella and Mary Cummins would never mix politics and civics only those who want to use the civic to advance themselves politically would mix the two to the determent of the community as a whole.

Sorry Bob you have done some good things but you are no better than any of the politicians you denounce you are one of them! You are worse then them because you hide your political agenda under the guise of community activist.

Bob Holden should be removed from the JPCA today! The community of Middle Village demands it!

I ain't Bob, thanks. Not in his park group and never met him. I just read the magazine. But hey, y'all can believe whatever you want. Don't care.

I like that they go after these political hacks - you think they deserve so much of your money?
They don't get any respect from me. I've called Anthony a lot worse than a Weiner. If he gets elected and builds cross harbor, I think you'll be calling him worse, too.

Tex

Hey Tex I believe you. I hope you realize that Bob Holden is a political Hack who used his influence to get his wife and kid a job with the Governor. I heard his kid failed all his drug test and the only job he could get is with the governor says a lot about government.

Tex I hope you also realize that Bob is a Politician he ran for political party position and lost. He uses the Berry not to hold the elected officials feet to the fire but to advance his own political agenda and the agenda for his cronies. So Tex welcome to this site … see you in the future

I am by no means a Weiner Fan, but I would rather have him as President of the JPCA that that Thief Bob Holden! Ever go on the Internet and search City records you see Bob the thief hoards money!

He will get his!

I was present at a JPCA meeting when Bob was so far up Weiner’s ass it wasn't funny. I guess that didn't last long! Bob is an equal opportunity hater!

Hey Holden Weiner supports our hockey league and a Dog Run. People in the community will win.

How much money did Bob Holden steal from the Midville Dodgers and the JPCA. I know he uses JPCA funds for himself and I know he used JPCA funds for his own home!

I moved into Middle Village just last year and I went to a Juniper Vally Civic meeting to get involved. I saw how this angry man Holden runs his meeting and I never went back. I follow him in the papers he believes he is the second coming of God. Thank you for the letter to my home advertising this site.

Hey Tex if you read the Juniper Berry you must like articles on St. Saviors and Dogs in the Park that seems to be the focus of the Berry now. No elected officials even bother to write for the rag. Tex join a real organization like the Middle Village Property Owners and Residents Association where hate is not on the agenda.

Anonymous said...

Folks don't pick on poor Tex he obviously likes dictators like Bob Holden that’s his prerogative. Maybe he used to live in Texas or down south where hatred is common. Bob Holden and the Weeble will show him the hate.

Don't forget Tony the Tulips Father of the false reporter! He hates but his family loves alot! They even love Sports like Basketball. That brings the term Fan to a larger more erect level.

Thank you for the flyer mailed to my house and the info on Juniper Civic and this site I must say you seem to have a bias towards the Juniper Park Civic Association that is unfair. Please do not judge the entire civic based upon its leader. Bob is a bully and a loud mouth egomaniac but he spends the time to do the work. I would never want that job!

I guess you are all on a mission to ruin it for the kids that play for Midville. Unless you have proof that funds were misappropriated, I wouldn't be spreading false rumors.
