Brian Silvany, a former supporter of Mayor Roque writes:
The topic I want to discuss: How politicians make all promises to get elected into office as mayor, governor, and president.
Here I will give you an example from December 2009. This man is a pain management doctor who said he wanted to throw his hat into the ring for mayor. So I wrote this doctor a personal letter and I said if you run for mayor of West New York, I will vote for you. Well, in May of 2010 he was voted into office as the new mayor of West New York. So at the time he seemed to be a great person making all promises to be mayor.
Well, on Nov. 28, 2011, I called his cellphone number to ask him a question and his answer to me was: "Who is Brian Silvani? How did you get my cell phone number?" Well, let me tell you something. Boy was I wrong about this man making a good mayor of West New York, because he lied right there on the spot, saying he would keep all of his promises he made. One of his promises he broke was he raised property taxes. He lied about the streets of West New York that are still dirty. You go out in the morning and on Bergenline Avenue there are crack bags on the sidewalks.
I was very disappointed about this man lying to me and saying he was my friend and if I needed anything just call him up. I can't write to his office at City Hall because his secretary intercepts my letters before the mayor sees my letters.
