Bill O’Loughlin: He’s Fed Up!

Running an independent media outlet is a daily adventure. When Marc and I wake up in the morning, we’re never sure what kind of political rumor we’ll receive in our Inboxes. As a matter of course, we leave the rumor mongering to the less ethical corners of the Buffalo Blogosphere while we wait for hard evidence of someone being a jackass. This is why I don’t get to print half of the cool gossip I’m privy to…Marc being a real journalist and Alan being a lawyer tends to kill all the fun.\par
\par
So, what did I find in my Inbox this morning? Firm evidence of Candidate for Erie County Clerk Bill O’Loughlin’s social grace, panache, and penchant for hissyfits over perceived indiscretions.\par
\par
Enjoy.

    Who was this call directed to? Who are Bob and Marilyn? Was this just a recording then left on your voice mail? all sounds a bit bizarre.

    Bob and Marilyn were the submitters, they recorded it and sent it to us. They asked to remain private aside from their names in the voicemail.

    Hey roadtrip …. from what I could gather :\par
    Mr. “Fed up” must have used his position on the Amherst council to get a retention pond cleaned out for a resident/friend/aquaintance. Apparently the resident/friend/aquaintance then sent him a letter thanking him, but that wasn’t good enough “in the big leagues”. It seems he was looking for a donation to his campaign, but since he now feels that the resident/friend/aquaintance isn’t “rich enough” he will take him off the donor rolls. He also apparently thinks that a husband can “control” their wife …\par
    \par
    \par
    Like I said before … what a dick.

    As the world turns…. I don’t think anyone in WNY is exactly shocked and awed over this. Although I like many others find more humor in it that seriousness. That’s really rather disturbing now that I think about it.

    Jim Keane keeps saying he will shake things up, I think Bill will cause tremors! I’m voting for him just because he doesn’t seem to care who he ticks off! It’s about time someone around here is fed up, I know I am! \par
    \par
    Hey Haterade, get a life! You handle says it all. If you can’t control your wife, you must be very limp wristed…

    Rumor has it that Bill knows how to control his wife when he’s fed up. A quick punch to the mouth will get her under control in a hurry, eh Bill? Rumors have persisted about his spousal abuse for years yet no one in the media has looked into it. Why not?

    “limp wristed” ? Is that supposed to be some sort of homosexual reference ? Nope … I’m not gay, and not sure what that would have to do with anything anyway …. but I’m sure I could “control” your punk ass any day.

    Hi, this is Bill O\’e2\’80\’99Loughlin calling. \par
    \par
    What I\’e2\’80\’99m about to say to you I\’e2\’80\’99d like to say in person, but I never have a chance to do so, and it wouldn\’e2\’80\’99t be appropriate to the Park Country Club to do it, so therefore I choose not to, and since I don\’e2\’80\’99t see you anywhere else, I thought I\’e2\’80\’99d leave a voice mail to try and let you know what I have on my mind. \par
    \par
    I\’e2\’80\’99ve heard, Marilyn that you\’e2\’80\’99re mad that you think I\’e2\’80\’99m mad because you or Bob didn\’e2\’80\’99t give me a contribution for my political fundraiser. It has nothing to do with that. Nothing whatsoever. As a matter of fact, I took you off my contribution list. You\’e2\’80\’99ll never hear from me again \’e2\’80\ldblquote race big or small \’e2\’80\ldblquote if I ever run one in the future, I not only don\’e2\’80\’99t want your contribution, I don\’e2\’80\’99t want your vote. \par
    \par
    I want people who are pretty elastic, who aren\’e2\’80\’99t pretty sensitive, who are wealthy enough to be big contributors to me, and clearly you don\’e2\’80\’99t fall into that camp, so don\’e2\’80\’99t even bother. \par
    \par
    But the real reason I don\’e2\’80\’99t like what you do, Marilyn, is the way you unload on Linda. Bob, you\’e2\’80\’99re the member \’e2\’80\ldblquote you\’e2\’80\’99re supposed to control your spouse. You let her wander all over the club, a couple of glasses of wine, and she unloads on Linda about her or her other problems. \par
    \par
    I asked her nicely after 20 minutes at our table wanting to please excuse us cuz we don\’e2\’80\’99t get out very often. Linda and I go out two nights a week, that\’e2\’80\’99s it. I\’e2\’80\’99m not going to sit there and listen to the problems of her, when we all have our own problems. Bob \’e2\’80\ldblquote you know it and I know it, we all do. We either have them or we will have them, and I don\’e2\’80\’99t wanna hear anybody else\’e2\’80\’99s, nor do I expect people to hear mine. \par
    \par
    That\’e2\’80\’99s not appropriate, Marilyn. It\’e2\’80\’99s not appropriate Bob. And you know you\’e2\’80\’99re wrong, if you think about it. If you think about social panache and think about what you\’e2\’80\’99re doing. \par
    \par
    Also, Bob, don\’e2\’80\’99t ever tell me again, you know how the game is played. You don\’e2\’80\’99t know how anything is done in politics if you think a letter \’e2\’80\ldblquote a letter \’e2\’80\ldblquote would suffice to thank me for getting that retention pond cleaned out. I pulled out more markers than you\’e2\’80\’99ll ever know to try to help you as a friend, and your gratitude is really most noticeable \’e2\’80\ldblquote you don\’e2\’80\’99t have any. I get men over there that nobody would have done for you except me, and you couldn\’e2\’80\’99t have got anyone to do it for you. \par
    \par
    Don\’e2\’80\’99t tell me you know how the game is played \’e2\’80\ldblquote letters don\’e2\’80\’99t hack it, Bob. And\’e2\’80\’a6\par
    \par
    (message ends)\par
    \par
    Hi, Bob & Marilyn, Bill O\’e2\’80\’99Loughlin again. I know the tape ran out, but it\’e2\’80\’99s important you hear everything. By the way, I\’e2\’80\’99ll tell you all of this in person. I\’e2\’80\’99m not trying to avoid you in person, I just don\’e2\’80\’99t know when I\’e2\’80\’99ll see you. Bob, if I ever experience your cocky attitude again that you displayed out there the other day on the terrace, you\’e2\’80\’99ll regret it. \par
    \par
    You have no idea how I can take you and make you look like a cocky, arrogant person you pretend to be. Don\’e2\’80\’99t ever do that to me again. \par
    \par
    Remember, guys, I did nothing to you. You go to a party at the 20th Century Club? No thank you note. Any social grace would tell you, Marilyn, to do that. But you don\’e2\’80\’99t want to do that? That\’e2\’80\’99s fine. \par
    \par
    I help you get your retention pond cleaned out and you want to give me a letter? C\’e2\’80\’99mon. Stop the bullshit. Bob, you\’e2\’80\’99re playing kindergarten, I\’e2\’80\’99m playing the big leagues. Quite frankly, I don\’e2\’80\’99t have room for you in my game. \par
    \par
    Any time you want to talk to me about anything, you can do that. I\’e2\’80\’99ll do it in person or on the phone. \par
    \par
    But I\’e2\’80\’99m telling you guys, don\’e2\’80\’99t you ever steal me out at the Park Country Club again. If you do, I\’e2\’80\’99ll make you look like the social inept people you are. You want to be cocky and arrogant around me? You want to walk around, Marilyn, after a couple glasses of wine? And unload your problems on me, and then go over to the Culligans for a half an hour? If I were them, I would have thrown you away from the table. \par
    \par
    Brian Culligan looked like he was ready to go to sleep. Marilyn, shame on you. Any good businessman would know better not to do that. \par
    \par
    And Bob, you should control your wife. She\’e2\’80\’99s not the member, you are. You wanna talk to me? You know where to reach me. You don\’e2\’80\’99t? That\’e2\’80\’99s fine too. Thank you for listening.

    I once worked at this club and cannot stop laughing at this typical Willy O freak out. For those of who were not aware, this is his normal attitude, the “I deserve everything from everyone and you better do it yeasterday” attitude. I guess we all know that Willy doesn’t need anyones vote that makes less than 300,000 a year so now we all know how to vote. I guess we also know that he has already become a typical politician, who uses government services to help out his friends or I guess even his enemies, for campaign money. Remember on tuesday, he doesn’t NEED our vote.
