Hey Mateo –

My mistake, in haste. Perhaps reflecting my far north lens on the upstate/downstate picture.

The big news here: Ed Koch is still alive!
I did not know that.

You know we are just like the pile of garbage their limo has to pull up next to when there is a garbage worker strike. We are there, we smell bad, but we can be ignored from behind mirrored glass.

I finally got around to going to the Web site and had a good laugh when I read, "Joining Mayor Koch in his effort to stop what has become the downward spiral of New York politics, are Citizens Union Director Dick Dadey, former New York City Parks Commissioner and New York Civic Director Henry Stern and a group of prominent New Yorkers serving as Trustees."
I laughed because of the phrase "prominent New Yorkers." This is the problem. They think highly of themselves. Our fearless leaders! Our heroes! They who just know they are better than us. We are not supposed to notice that they don't think we are very prominent.
I'm just waiting for one of these prominent people to say, "They don't have any bread? Let them eat cake."
They are so full of themselves, they must have a bad case of acid indigestion.

Pete, too late. It already has lost any real meaning.

First, a tip of the hat to Sayward.
Two, why would anyone care a hoot about Koch?
Three, could we please pass a law to prevent further use of the word hero?
It is used so often now-a-days it is in danger of losing all meaning.

Dan's right.

All you need to know about cut and dry nonsense like this is that according to Koch's website, the infamous Sen. Pedro Espada is a "hero of reform."

Nuff said!

I'm all in favor of using GAAP and non-partisan re-districting.

If he's going to Rochester and Buffalo, he sticking to 90, not 81.

People like things painted black and white for them, don't they? So much easier than actually do the research and finding out what people really stand for. I'm surprised he settled for Enemies of Reform. He should use Axis of Evil…gets more mileage.
