What if he was standing up for puppy-kicking or baby-eating, or if he has stood up to support the Related deal at the Armory. I don't think you would find that refreshing, would you?<br /><br />>LOU from the ol' BDLOU from the ol' BDhttp://boogiedowner.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6850750806594927202.post-70490423982141913692010-10-28T00:20:47.503-04:002010-10-28T00:20:47.503-04:00agree or disagree, it's refreshing to see an e...agree or disagree, it's refreshing to see an elected official to stand up for what he thinks is right. it's all too rare nowadays. <br /><br />you can be sure that if the agenda suited him, mayor bloomberg would be doing the same sort of thing. so in fact, the BP is out bloomberg-ing, bloomberg. nicely done.GAX in the Bronxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13679122512214606513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6850750806594927202.post-86889248055578015492010-10-27T23:12:38.350-04:002010-10-27T23:12:38.350-04:00Mr. Mayor the National Guard belongs at the Muelle...Mr. Mayor the National Guard belongs at the Mueller ARC in Wakefield.
