I'm disappointed in Bill Pascrell, whom I've known for 20 years. Bill and I share a zealous devotion to Fordham University football and basketball adventures.I've always found him to be intelligent and thoughtful. He always pointed with pride that it was his effort as Mayor of Paterson to make Joe Clark a principal, resulting in Clark becoming a national figure for discipline and basics in education. I am sorry to see this story.

Then he lied to you, Sen. Frank Graves was Mayor when Joe Clark was Principal.  You know how Paterson Mayor Pascrell became a Congressman?  He walked into a room filled with black leaders of Paterson and said, "You want your first black mayor" meaning councilman Martin Barnes who ran for mayor in the past, "then make sure I get elected to congress", Congressman Bill Martini won every town in his district except for the very populated democrat town of Paterson which pushed Pascrell over the edge.

Principal Joe Clark said Saturday that his steel-fisted reign over the inner-city high school he ran for eight years apparently is over, thanks to a City Council of "transvestites" and "vermin. "Clark, who was released Saturday from Newark Beth Israel Medical Center following heart surgery six weeks ago, said his biggest accomplishment was showing that "black and Hispanic students in the inner city can behave."
