Esinye sezimangalo zikaSteve Lonegan ezothusayo kwiphulo lakhe leRhuluneli kukuba uya kuba ngoyena mntu ugqwesileyo kwiGOP ngokuchasene noJon Corzine. Ithuku lokuqala lomntu kukucinezela ukuhleka kwesi siqinisekiso, kuba uphulukene nalo lonke ugqatso awakhe wangena kulo ngaphandle kwedolophana yakhe yaseBotota, kwi-County Executive, State Senate, kunye neRhuluneli. Ngapha koko, icebo lakhe lerhafu, eliza kunyusa irhafu yengeniso kwi-70% yabarhafi, engahambi kakuhle kwiRiphabhlikhi yasePrayimari, kubonakala ngathi inika iiDemokhrasi umba ekuphela kwawo abanokuthi baphambukise ingqalelo yoluntu kwirekhodi yabo.
Mhlawumbi esona sizathu sikhulu sokuba uLonegan ASINGUYE umgqatswa onamandla, nangona kunjalo, uhlala kwiLonegan's Illegal Immigrant Scandal, eyaqhekeka ngo-2007 kuwo onke amaphephandaba aphambili kurhulumente. Esi sikrelemnqa, kunye nendlela uLonegan ayisingathe ngayo, iya kunika iimbumbulu ezinzulu kuJon Corzine ukuba azisebenzise ngokuchasene naye kunyulo jikelele, kwaye iphakamisa imibuzo enzima malunga nokugweba nokungafihlisi kwakhe.
Iinyani aziphikisani - ngo-Okthobha u-2007, uSteve Lonegan wabanjwa ngobhongwana ngamapolisa eBergen County, ngokuqesha abaphambukeli abangenamaxwebhu ukuba babeke imiqondiso yengca yombutho wakhe 'ongajonganga kwenza mali', amaMelika oPhumelele.
I-Associated Press inika ingxelo yokuba ekuqaleni uLonegan wathi abasebenzi 'baya kumbutho wakhe wokukhuthaza abahlawuli berhafu. . . ndifuna umsebenzi. ' (AP 10/13/07)
U-Lonegan waphendula ngesityholo esichasene nesebe lakhe lamapolisa, etyhola amapolisa endawo ngokumkhetha, nangokobuhlanga babonisa ngokungekho mthethweni. (Ungayihoyi intsingiselo yokuba ikwangulo Lonegan wazama ukubamba ingqumbo emhlophe yabavoti ngokugxeka esidlangalaleni uMcDonalds ngokuba nomqondiso olwimi-mbini).
U-Lonegan emva koko walitshintsha ibali lakhe, hayi okokugqibela, malunga nokuqesha kwakhe abo bangekho mthethweni. Ukusuka kwi-Star-Ledger (10/15/07): 'U-Lonegan walitshintsha ibali lakhe malunga nendlela awathi waqesha ngayo abaphambukeli babini ngokungekho mthethweni. Kwiingxelo zeendaba zangaphambili, uLonegan uthe la madoda mabini angena kwiofisi yakhe ekumgangatho wesibini kwiRiver Road efuna umsebenzi. Ngokwenkcazo yangaphambili kaLonegan, wawalahla amadoda endlwini yakhe kwiBotota Gardens. . Izolo uxelele i-Star-Ledger ukuba la madoda awazanga eofisini yakhe efuna umsebenzi. 'Siye sayobathatha,' utshilo uLonegan. Ucinezelwe ukufumana iinkcukacha ezithe kratya malunga nokuba uwafumene phi la madoda, uLonegan uthe: 'Ndiza kukuxelela inyani, andazi. Umntu othile osebenza kum — andazi ukuba babemi phi kanye kanye. '
Kuya kuba ngcono. Ingxelo yeBergen ibhengeze ngengomso ukuba 'abo basebenzi babini bengenamaphepha abaqeshwe nguSodolophu waseBotota uSteve Lonegan kwiveki ephelileyo baphikisana neakhawunti yakhe yeziganeko. . Esitsho ukuba ubakhangelele umsebenzi kwaye akazange abuze nokuba ngabahlali ngokusemthethweni na. . . '
Inyaniso ekugqibeleni yatyhilwa- irekhodi laxela ukuba 'amadoda aseGuatemala. . Utshilo uMvulo ukuba amadoda amabini - umqhubi kunye nomgibeli abathi kamva bachonga njengoLonegan kwifoto- babathatha ecaleni kwendlela engu 46. . Indawo ethandwayo yabasebenzi bemihla bekhangela imisebenzi. '
U-Lonegan uthe ukucacisa kwakhe kunye nokutshintsha amabali 'akunamsebenzi kum' kwaye 'uya kuqesha nabani na endimfunayo.'
IRhuluneli yethu elandelayo ithatha abafuduki ngokungekho mthethweni kwindlela ephumayo kwiNdlela 46, ibanjwe ixoka ngayo, isithi inokuqesha nabani na ayifunayo, nkqu nabangekho mthethweni?
Le nguSteve Lonegan yokuba uCorzine uza kuba sisidumbu, kwaye esona sizathu sokuba abe likhonkco elibuthathaka le-GOP.
