This is way different

This guy claims hes a democrat and Christie claims he’s a republican

Parallell universes

Cuomo can say anything

Imus was on humming, ‘well, there is a group of conservatives who hate gays...’ And his wife, who says she’s catholic says, well, the Catholic Church is not for abortion

She can’t articulate that the church is not anti gay but it is against
Gay marr

Personally, I think most of the money is on the Upper West Side. People with money want the beauty of the houses in that area not the boring glass boxes of Bonfire of the Vanities. Of course, 5 thru Park are exceptions although Park is deeply boring.

NYC only got about 3-4 inches. The major snow areas were outside the city. Those brats can hike it to school.

I don’t know the neighborhoods of Manhattan very well - so someone help me out here.

Isn’t the Upper East Side (for all of its money) pretty left-wing in its thinking?

If true, it seems like a guy like De Blasio would have won fairly well in that area in November’s election.

Does this seem like a case of De Blasio (for lack of a more polite phrasing) pissing on the shoes of those who supported him in the election?

I just found them on fbn. Used to listen on way to school in the ‘80 s on am car radio, but rarely. And off and on through the yrs. family members mention them occasionally so I like to check in

I think his wife is a doofus. Case: last wk imus slammed Kimberly guild pulse for being aggressive on hannity’s show next to lies weigel. Imus’ wife jumps in after KG. weigel wimped out. Two minutes later, Deirdre is slamming weigel on her views and putting words in her mouth. I have never seen aggression like that from KG

Imus’ wife is a doofus with a tenth grade mentality like the guys on the show, who have an excuse. They don’t pretend to be anything other than sophomoric, except the tyrant imus himself with his personality problem

Still , can’t conservatives figure out where they stand on issues and defend them?

You’ve got the gov saying all conservatives hate gays.

That’s what he meant. Can’t some of these guys get a clue and articulate it?

She’s got the idiot Imus eating hot peppers every day so he doesn’t kick off from cancer. Sounds like she’s just trying to get her mitts on his millions early by destroying his intestines.

Snowplowing (or not) city streets has been the downfall of mayors in the past.

I didn’t see it but apparently Al Roker was all upset over this on NBC this morning.

Is there going to be an investigation as clearly this was done to punish his political opponents.

I wonder if there is an email trail.

Limozene liberals at war with Occupy Wall Street/the far left.

All I can say is that NYC got the mayor they deserve; this is the ultimate outcome of letting the far left have power-enjoy ;)!

David Dinkens soured non-black New Yorkers on voting for Democrat mayors for 20 years.

People are really going to start missing Rudy Giuliani, real soon.

Great snowmobiling!

Time to go down and rape and pillage while the cop cars can't get through to save the rich!

If your whereabouts has a bad ice storm this winter, you betcha your bippy your neighborhood will get the same treatment wrt electricity.

The UES is the one place in the city that didn’t vote for him by and large. Hence the revenge.

Since you think it’s ‘OK’ because you don’t live there I’m sure you’ll think it’s ‘OK’ if the ptb’s let your area go without electricity if the opportunity presents itself.

townhall.com is just rehashing the NY Post article.

The NY Post article headlined this as bungling or botching the issue.

The townhall.com version implies that this was deliberate, not any kind of error.

Neither source provided any proof that this was deliberate. The NY Post interviewed a couple of people who were inconvenienced by the snow and tried to make it into a bigger issue.

Again, I don’t like DeBlasio, but I don’t see any evidence that this was deliberate or his error, or if there even was any kind of error to begin with.

Between Cuomo and De Blasio, I’ll be shocked if there isn’t a substantial acceleration to the mass exodus of wealthy NY residents.

After the Thaw; all will be forgiven.

Exactly. Where are the Sons of Liberty in today’s world? It’s past time for pitchforks, tar and feathers.

This one is on a little used country road in Indiana; long past time needing resurfacing, but the snowplow goes down it sometimes TWICE a day!
