Gracie Mansion: 'Most expensive apartment ever' in NYC goes on sale
0 comments
Not their dopey over-heated Ross shack on Park Avenue... but the priceless mayor's mansion on the East Side is now up for sale.
Gracie Mansion is worth a lot more than $60 million to the people of New York. But Plutocrat Mike Bloomberg is willing to pay any price to hang onto it, even (especially!) when he's no longer wanted! And he now has a small politiboro to hand him anything he wants, since they now owe every remaining day they spend in politics and government to Michael Bloomberg.
City Council is now a patronage job.
Just what must those Council members have received from Bloomberg to sell out the city they love. This isn't a vote that gets made on the basis of "merits." Because it has none.
Just naked greed and fear.
The Daily News also ran a snap poll that answers the question, "Do you believe the City Council had the right to extend term limits?" with a resounding 14% YES to 86% NO vote.
We can only hope and work our asses off to see that Pluto gets that same tally in the 2009 mayoralty electioins he so wanted to be a part of, despite the billions he'll throw at this city to stage his own bail out.
