Christine Quinn's mega-bullshit
You have got to be kidding me.
On Sunday, the mayor won the crucial, if expected, backing of the powerful City Council speaker, Christine C. Quinn. But the timing and the tone of her news conference seemed to reflect the desire by the Bloomberg administration and its allies to build momentum for extending term limits for public officials from eight years to twelve.
The campaign, which has drawn sharp rebukes from a collection of grass-roots groups, has reinforced Mr. Bloomberg’s image as a sometimes imperious leader who may be in sync with a world of business executives but less attuned to the attitudes of ordinary New Yorkers.
The one and only hearing scheduled by the Council on lifting term limits - that's right, one hearing - is this Thursday.
Date: Thursday, October 16, 2008
Time: 1:00pm - 11:00pm
Location: City Hall
City/Town: New York, NY
You should go.
