I have mixed thoughts about the "extension". I believe that Rudy has done a great job in NYC. Having lived there for the first years of my life and then being raised on LI and then leaving only to visit. I have noticed a dramatic change since he took office. My wife (who is from Texas) wanted to see an authentic Times Square Hooker. Only found one and that was at Penn Station and she was being rousted by the Transit Cops. As to his handling of the attacks, I think he has shown what he is made of. I don't think changing rules and laws for a particular incident is a good precedent to set. The incoming Mayor should be a confident enough person to ask him to stay on for a predetermined length of time to continue the coordination of the cleanup effort. That doesn't set a dangerous precedent. New Yorkers have a penchant for putting idiots in office, Hilary and Bobbie come to mind. How would everyone feel if this was Bill Clinton as mayor asking for an extension because of some emergency. Look past today to see what could happen tomorrow. As far as JJ, AS, & LF go, it is best to just ignore the linguistically challenged and intelligence challenged unfortunates in our society. Talking about them only makes them worse. What fate for any of them would be worse than to be out of the press and have no one listening???

"Only found one [Times Square hooker]."
That probably partially explains Sharpton's animosity towards Giuliani: Giuliani has made it so much harder for Al to find hookers.

LOL! I don't know if the hookers still hang out by the bus terminal near the Lincoln Tunnel or not but back in 1986 I was getting discharged from the USCG, leaving Manhattan I wanted a picture of one of the "girls."
LOL! I was a passenger in the truck (with Ohio plates no less) and at the stop light there they were, I snapped a picture of one of them and unfortunately the light didn't change fast enough!
She came stomping over to the vehicle screaming "hey honey! I'm not the f-ing statue of Liberty! you bess hand over somethin fo that pictore!" LOL! thankfully the light changed...
