BACKSTORY When Rudy Giuliani was riding high as post-911 Mayor, he summarily fired Police Commissioner Bratton....simply b/c Bratton was getting too much press, and was being invited to all the A-list parties.
That was too much for ego-driven Rudy. Bratton had to go....unceremoniously ousted like a bag of garbage. Word was Bratton was stunned.
Today, Bratton is once again NYC Police Commissioner....clearly the star speaker at the slain cop's funeral.
Rudy was forced to the rear-Bratton and the rest of the dignitaries did not even give him the time of day.
At the slain cops funeral Rudy looked like little boy lost.....the poster boy for the old adage, Be careful who you step on, on the way up, b/c youre gonna meet them on the way down.
DE BLOBBIO'S WIFE
RESUME ENHANCEMENT PROGRESSIVE-STYLE During DeBlobbio's campaign, his wife Chirlane I. McCray was billed as a writer, poet, editor, communications professional, and political figure who published poetry and worked in politics for the Clintons.
THE REAL STORY
Mrs DeBlobbio loudly declared her lesbianism in a magazine article---she was in a black feminist lesbian group and wrote poetry about being a lesbian. Politicker noted her husband's campaign website doesn't reference her background as an avowed lesbian and a lesbian activist or lesbian poet: It notes her affiliation with the Combahee River Collective, omitting mention of the groups lesbian roots, referencing it as "a pioneering black feminist collective."
They met while both worked for Dinkins. She says she had a nose ring and wore African garb when he spotted her and was completely smitten. She never told him she was a lesbian. And later said after their marriage she was still attracted to women.
During the campaign, she was asked about her lesbian lifestyle----she retorted she "didn't understand the question."
The Blobbio's honeymooned in Communist Cuba. Musta been a shock on their wedding night when Blobbio came out of the shower in a towel. "You want to put what where," said the startled lesbian.
THE ODD COUPLE
DeBlobbio gave his wife control of "the multi-million dollar Mayor's Fund." .... no telling who shell be dishing it out to....prolly to those who helped get them elected. Think money laundering...the ambitious lesbian has a staff---two aides salaried @ half a million. NYC has enormous revenue flow. DeBlobbio (as do most Mayors) controls all of that revenue.
