Traitor Among Us
posted by Mary Alice Miller
Mon, 11/09/2009 – 2:56pmAll weekend, I have been mulling over whether I should post this. As someone who tries not to allow myself to be easily manipulated, I had to make sure I was not being goaded into reacting instead of responding. I have come to the conclusion that the person in question is not that smart. So here goes.
Geoffrey Davis apparently thinks everyone is as stupid as he is. Yes, the same Geoffrey Davis who has lived in his mommy’s house all his adult life, has never accomplished anything on his own, has been pimping the death of his brother, Council man James Davis, for financial gain, has out of wedlock children and a criminal record, has issues with domestic violence while holding monthly DV forums, and is positioning himself to run for Tish James’ council seat in 2013, as if the police records will disappear.
Geoffrey wouldn’t let me be nice to him; when I let things go and don’t write certain items, I am being kind.
Example: A couple of months ago Geoffrey told me that I need to stop verbalizing my advocacy on behalf of Black women and children in community forums; and if I intend to continue to do so, I can’t hang with him anymore. (WT* did he say? Must I get permission from him in order to think? I should have Geoff vet my words/actions for approval? Picture that.) Of course I told him as a born and bred NYer, I have been navigating my city long before I met him. Case closed. I let it go, as I wasn’t going to miss anything.
In fact, it was a relief, since I no longer had to listen to Geoffrey’s boring begs for sex, while trying in vain to engage in intelligent conversation. (For Geoffrey, anything with 98.6 degrees will do. He is one of those dumba**’s who doesn’t realize that in this day and time women like me see womanizers as highly efficient disease spreading, problem causing machines.)
Anyway, Geoffrey texted me Saturday. Rather than paraphrase, here is the back and forth:
11:20:01 am G: “Bloomberg rec 150k votes w/ the Independence line Thompson lost by 50k If Thompson sat w/ Davis & Fulani & rec the line Thompson would’ve won…”
11:23:14 am MA: “Are you saying thompson was approached by fulani before they approached Bloomberg”
11:32:21 am MA: “Of course you have no answer. Not buying it. Sell it to the dn. They buy anything.”
11:42:42 am G: “I was on the line, that’s why I couldn’t answer right back”
11:43:35 am MA: “Still no answer”
12:05:04 pm G: “No answer?”
12:05:49 pm MA: “Try reading my original reply”
12:12:25 pm G: “Hard to believe that Billy met with Fulani B\4 Bloomberg huh? I no it crushing, his team didnt bat for him including Obama.”
12:14:34 pm MA: “Still not buying it. You have to come better than this”
12:21:02 pm G: “My luv check the numbers. 2001 60k, 2005 80k, 2009 150k. You can’t win with out I.P. Numbers… Billy met w/ I.P. Before Bloomberg. Go check it out.”
12:22:44 pm MA: “Clueless”
13:16:55 pm G: “I think ur getting smart w/ me as oppose to holding a muture convo. Walk blessed.”
13:19:40 pm MA: “You think? A little slow, but refreshing”
I won’t pick on Geoff’s ADD tendencies. Instead I will start with the obvious: running on the I.P. line did not help Kendall Stewart. Name one person who won anything by running only on the I.P. line.
Besides, Geoffrey seems to have forgotten I have certain background info. Where do I begin?
Just prior to petitioning, Geoff told me Fulani was stressing him to get on board. Even though he had in the past, Geoff said he couldn’t support Bloomberg this year, partly due to term limits. Geoff spent the summer campaigning for Weprin.
Sometime before the primary, Geoff told me Fulani had gotten $5 million from Bloomberg: $2.5 million for the I.P.; $2.5 million for her youth program. Geoff complained that Fulani was getting Bloomberg Bucks, but he wasn’t. (This is absolute proof Geoffrey is an idiot; he is the only person in NY who wanted some Bloombucks and didn’t get any. — Even I was approached multiple times from a variety of sources. I respectfully declined. — Geoffrey has been trying to get Bloombucks since 2003. When his brother died, Geoffrey cracked on Bloomberg for money. Instead of getting Bloombucks, the mayor gave Geoff his book. When I asked if he read it, Geoff said he read a couple of pages, and then put it down because it was boring.)
Geoff had a change of heart on primary night, when he got to play Big Willie by taking some of his community groupies to his honor’s party via a free Bloombus. Later, Geoff tried to get me on the bandwagon. I declined, citing my consistent disagreements with the administration, including policies re. the city’s 13,000 substitute teachers, among other things. Geoff tells me I’m stupid, that “It’s business.” (Now, why should I follow behind someone who couldn’t figure out how to get his own Bloombucks?)
If Geoffrey got anywhere near the council, it would be a disaster for the district. He will do anything for a dollar, including ignore the community’s needs. Geoff has held a protest at a brand new, state of the art community center that had never opened because the administration would not fund the approximate $200,000 operating expenses. Geoff himself has pointed out that young people are arrested for loitering in front of the locked center. Yet he supports Bloombucks, instead of supporting Bill Thompson, a man of the people. And brags about it.
The only conclusion I can come to: Geoffrey is a traitor. A stupid one, at that. Policy is not on his agenda. [ R8NY]
Thank you for writing the truth about Geoffrey Davis….anytime you want I cant forward emails where I was threatened by that punk in his daughter’s name. There were witnesses who came forth that were sitting with him when he wrote and sent the emails….not to mention him trying to hire someone to do a hit (that’s a laugh) on me. Geoffrey Davis only hits women who don’t fight back…he was too much of a punk to come see me himself,,,,the Foundation and Geoffrey are both jokes!!!!
