"They’re just mistaken,” said the mayor today, in response to the highly dubious, tabloid-stretched claims that he left the Upper East Side unplowed after yesterday’s snow. “No one was treated differently. We believe in a five-borough approach in everything we do.” He added, “I think people need to be mindful when they hurl those charges. That is not real respectful of the men and women who work so hard for us in sanitation. They were out there in force in every neighborhood.” Besides, as has been pointed out, Bloomberg’s snowplow guy is still in charge. And this is not New Jersey.
New York city has a horse’s a$$ for a mayor. New York state has a donkey’s a$$ for a governor.
Welcome to the new Gulag of NY.
and who can’t wait for all of the conservatives to move out leaving an additional 100 billion in state debt!
That neighborhood didn’t vote for him. But New York has a lot of other neighborhoods where there are “his kind” of rich people - that is, media people, politicians, etc.
Last I recall, NY City itself had something like $113 billion in debt.
Bush'sBloomberg's Fault!
Yes, Wilhelm’s major backers are “the rich”, but not the way you and I understand it.
There are lots and lots of rich people, some of whom are very very rich who live between 63rd and 86th from 5th to York. But many of them REALLY LIVE THERE. Manhttan is their home. I lived there, too until I was 30, at 67th and York.
Wilhelm’s rich are the INTERNATIONAL rich. They are building the billion dollar glass wall on 57th. They might spend a couple of weeks in town, between Cannes and Davos, the VIII arrondissement and on safari at Richard Branson’s place.
They don’t believe anything can ever touch them. When those buildings on 57th open, they may have traditional Manhattan doormen on the street but they’ll have ex-paras with AR-15s in the lobby.
And what happens to the Manhattan full-timers, even “the rich”? Wilhelm’s super-rich could not care less. They’re just there for local color.
De Blasio will have to increase your taxes so he can plow your streets
ok, so horses are no longer allowed to gallup and crap on the streets,but i am pretty sure dogs are still allowed to crap all over the place, right?
Dee Blastio,
An Orwellian pig.
But in the vernacular, just pig’s a$$.
DeBlasio,Coomo,Moonbeam, proof that 55% of populations in Blue States have the same I.Q. as Turkeys.
It’s only the beginning New York. As it’s been said “You ain’t seen nuttin yet”
As I watched a commercial tonight aimed at bringing business owners and investors into New York State, I had to laugh. The idiot governor pretty much tells these same people that they’re not welcome while spending money on trying to woo them.
His statements should be a larger news story than what they are - as far as I’m concerned, he should be stepping down.
by summer, “Public Farting” will no longer be tolerated in Manhattan! (got to save that Ozone!)
“Highly dubious truth stretching claims” no bias there
We have boatloads of those phony commercials in AZ, too. Not buying what Cuomo is selling!
But he claims he didn't know ( Obama's excuse)
Well ,... it worked for Obama
He did it for vengence and revenge (reality),since only the poor would vote for a Communist !! It's called : "GREED " !!
Christie’s fault!
Pray NY wakes up
