Have you ever read the Wikipedia (free, online encyclopedia) page for Joel Giambra?
Quite a legacy…sometimes, I look back on his political career and I’m simply amazed at the trail of absolute incompetence, corruption, graft, and general nincompoopery.
If I ever have a wiki page written about me, I hope it doesn’t include a gem like this:
Following the adoption of his red budget, Giambra has seen his popularity drop and this has led to the retirements of several local politicians who are tied to him. In the 2005 election, candidates vied to distance themselves from him. Many county legislators either chose not to run for re-election or were defeated by new candidates, radically changing the political make-up of the legislature. A recent poll has shown that Giambra is detested by 90% of the general public of Erie County. Another recent poll reported that 80% of the county’s residents would like him to resign before his term expires. There is no procedure for a recall, thus the residents of Erie County must retain him until his term expires or he resigns.
Hopefully, your wiki page does not describe you as a douchebag whose family hates him.
