A NEW York politician has been filmed dropping the "f-bomb" at least 15 times in what has become an online video hit, attracting tens of thousands of page views.
Unaware that an interview with a Scandinavian "reporter" was an elaborate set-up for a hidden camera-type television show, New York City councillor James Oddo launched into a obscene tirade.
After being asked about Hillary Clinton's "embarrassing incident with a cigar", the Republican asked a member of his staff to throw the crew out.
"Get the (f-bomb) out of my office,” Mr Oddo told the crew as the fake reporter struggled to keep a straight face.

Oh Dear. Naughty Utterances Were Audible Within the Five Boroughs. City Democrats Go Into a Tizzy.
Darn right it’s New York.
These interviewers should consider themselves lucky they still have their knee-caps intact!
Martin Scorsese should find something for him, which I mean as a compliment to both.
All I can say is...
Well said, Councilor!
I saw that this AM. Should give this guy a statute in the park.
I think he handled it well, he’s a busy guy, these clowns come in there pulling that - too bad ya can’t smack a few of these O2 thieves around.
He was great!
From your lips...LOL
You know what a NYC echo sounds like?
"Helloooooooooooo?"
(pause)
"Shut The F**k UP!"
Oddo was defending a woman's honor! Hat's off to Oddo!
> He was great!
Wasn’t he just! I loved the way he sized her up with the first question: you could hear the gears grinding away as he figured her out in about two seconds...
...and she walked right into it. The fifteen F-Bombs and furious diatribe weren’t accidental: they were a well-calculated response.
Hell, I’d vote for him.
F*ing A!!!
This loudmouth moron with no sense of humor voted for all of the following BS.
City Laws
CELL PHONE BAN AT PERFORMANCES
(INTRO 257-A)
Introduced: 2002
Passed City Council: December 18, 2002
Mayor Veto: January 13, 2003
City Council Override: February 12, 2003
This law restricts the use of cell phones in places of public performances. Violators will now face a $50 fine and eviction from the venue for talking on, listening to or having a cell phone ring at movie theaters, plays, musicals, museums or libraries. The mayor vetoed the law, saying it was not enforceable. The council overrode the mayor’s veto.

CAR ALARM BAN
(INTRO 81-A)
Introduced: 2004
Passed City Council: July 21, 2004
Mayor Veto: August 16, 2004
City Council Override: September 28, 2004
In 1993, the city made it illegal to own a car alarm that is activated by vibrations or that sounds for longer than three minutes; however, it has been legal to sell and install these types of alarms in New York. This bill makes it illegal to sell or install such car alarms and carries a penalty of $500 to $1,000 for a first offense. Mayor Michael Bloomberg vetoed the bill, arguing that it effectively bans car alarms in the city and can lead to auto thefts; the council overrode the mayor.

(INTRO 144-A)
Introduced: 2004
Passed City Council: January 5, 2005
Passed Mayor: January 18, 2005
This is part of a package of legislation strengthens the city’s gun regulations. New York already has some of the toughest gun laws in the nation. According to officials, 85 percent of the guns used in the city’s 2,000 annual gun-related crimes come from other states with more lenient laws. Intro 144-A prohibits the sale of a rifle or shotgun to anyone under the age of 21 in New York City.

HEALTHCARE FOR GROCERY WORKERS
(INTRO 758)
Introduced: 2006
Passed City Council: August 17, 2005
Mayor Veto: January 19, 2006
City Council Override: March 1, 2006
This legislation, known as the Healthcare Security Act, is an effort to require grocery and “big box” stores like Walmart to provide health care coverage for their employees. It requires employers to contribute $2.50 for each hour an employee works, or $5,000 a year for a full-time employee toward the worker’s health costs. It applies to stores with more than 50 employees (the previous bill said 35 or more employees) and excluded temporary and seasonal workers. The bill also applies to large stores, like Walmart, which use a significant amount of their space to sell food. Mayor Michael Bloomberg vetoed both measures, arguing that they violate federal law, which limits state and local government involvement in employee benefits. The council overrode the mayor.

NEW NOISE CODE
(INTRO 397-A)
Introduced: 2005
Passed City Council: December 21, 2005
Passed Mayor: December 29, 2005
The city’s new noise code places more restrictions on noise pollution than the 30-year-old code it is replacing. The new noise code restricts excessive noise from construction sites and allows construction work only between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. on weekdays. It forbids sanitation or other large trucks from operating in residential areas at night. The new code requires bars to keep music below a specific decibel level. It also forbids continuous animal noise inside a residence for more than 10 minutes between the hours of 7 a.m. and 10 p.m., or for more than five minutes after 10 p.m. The code allows Mr. Softee ice cream trucks to play jingles ONLY while they are in motion. The code also adds noise from motorcycles, car radios, and portable stereos to the city’s regulations. Most importantly, the regulations impose new fines - ranging from $50 to $8,000 - for those who break the law.
Apparently Boss Oddo has a problem with Mr. Softee as well as blondes. He so important he can’t be bothered to act like a gentleman.
This is why I never go on TV...
I just have the sailor DNA too, find myself very easily speaking in animation...
In my defense, it just means I really “care”.
Quite the Conservative.
Very few on the planet can paint the room with expletives like a talented New Yorker.
