Here is some fascinating video posted by Celeste Katz at the Daily News featuring a very young Assemblyman Jose Rivera during his first run for the Assembly. The reporter goes back and forth with the Assemblyman-elect about whether it was appropriate for him to run for office while collecting unemployment benefits. It also shows a very different time in the Bronx.
I just finished watching President Obama SOTU and I have to tell everyone how RELIEVED I am that Eliot Engel didn't throw himself at the President this time around...after camping out in the hallway over night...now I know how the SHAM-WOW guy feels after cleaning up a big ol mess.
ReplyDeleteOh, wait...there he goes again!!! 10:17pm ABC...Engel is hovering over our President asking for an autograph like a pre-teen wants to hump Justin Bieber. He is such a goofball. Can we make arrangements for Maryland to keep him for good???
I really miss Bill Beutel. He was one classy dude.
ReplyDeleteThat's a legislator???
