Ahhhh, its whats called the "WOO-WOO" syndrome...

WOO WOO, get outta my way!!!

I've seen it many times in some Volunteer Fire Departments...

Its ok though...Its just a phase...You usually grow out of it...Never happened to me...I never wanted the attention...I made it to where I was going just fine without the stuff...

Later,
Steve

A week ago, WCBS-TV aired videotape of Deputy Mayor Carol Robles-Roman zipping from work to home in her official car, its lights flashing and siren blaring. Her chauffeur was shown driving on the shoulders of roads to avoid traffic.

Why isn't this woman being given 30 days (without pay) to think about this in some Sparten location? (And why does a Deputy Mayor get an "offical car" anyway? What was the last "emergency" an NYC Deputy Mayor reponded to? Enquiring minds want to know.)

Why does the mayor get to keep his? Why in the world would a mayor need to get somewhere in such a hurry by bypassing the little people?

Her chauffeur? The deputy mayor gets an official car to go from work to home, and she has a CHAUFFER?!! I suppose the chauffer is paid by the citizens of New York. Take away her lights, sirens, and chauffer. And, make her get from home to work on her own, just like the peasants have to do. Good grief.

I think that ALL citizens should have lights and sirens, too.

After all, not only government employees ahave emergencies.

Why punish everybody. Since she was the only one caught abusing the privilege, take the vehicle away from her. I hate bureaucrats. They can never hold one person responsible for their misbehavior, they have to take it out on everyone.

If Schumer's wife, who's in charge of the NYC Transportation Department, has that kind of equipment, will she have to get rid of it?

WTF do these government lackeys need chauffeurs for?

Chauffeurs?

While the middle class struggles, these government employees have gone from public servants to government celebrities....

This is a WONDERFUL story for us folks in 'flyover country'. It just proves that NYC is a total, and absolute cluster f&*k. A toilet waiting to be flushed, as in Flushing New York.

Thank God we have them confined to a specific location. Don't let them out, it'll infect the rest of us.
