Welcome to New York. For years Pedro Espada and Vito Lopez to name just two guys has “king of NY” attitudes very much like Mike Bloomberg who became the ultimate poster boy but the cover-ups and unwillingness for the powers to be to prosecute is shameful. By the way Mike with his mini-me Christine Quinn’s help pushed through a third term and broke campaign laws doing so wiring money out of his personal account the day before the election because Mike Bloomberg knew what I, Suzannah Troy was stating for half a year before the election, Mike might not win do to voter anger!
Remember Corrupt Christine Quinn denied us a referendum and put the vote in front of a city council riddled with corruption? Will Miguel Martinez voted to extend term limits and he is now in jail and there are others that voted to extend that should be in jail but it took to long to bust them like Seabrook or some magically avoid prosecution but early on I said the term limits votes should have been thrown out because of corruption starting with Martinez!
Nice to know Larry Seabrook’s mistress is to spill the beans.
"Have you seen this woman: Councilwoman (Maria) Arroyo ducks criminal-investigation spotlight” Title of New York Daily News article below.
And than there is a her mom, a NY State Assembly woman who the NYDN also accuses of stealing as well! http://www.nydailynews.com/news/2009/06/10/2009-06-10_workers_stole_tens_of_thousands_from_bronx_nonprofit_to_fund_trips_sprees_for_.html
The list is long and also we have one politico, ny state assembly woman serving us who is listed on Bill DeBlasio’s Slum Lord Watch list === oh it is Carmen Arroyo, Maria the council woman's Mom! http://suzannahbtroy.blogspot.com/2011/04/carmen-arroyo-ny-state-assembly-woman.html from VV article: Then there's $2,300 worth of airfare that SBCC picked up for another unnamed pol referred to only as "City Council Member #1." Maria del Carmen Arroyo, daughter of the assembly woman, is currently a city council member and former official of SBCC where her sister, Iris Arroyo works.

and do not forget my post from the other day re: Christine Quinn and slush money including NY Post Josh Margolin exposing more dirty play by Quinn leaving a position to watch for slush above vacant!
You can understand why corrupt politicians do not want term limits at all. Aren’t you glad they denied us a referendum and corrupt poilticos voted to extend term limits so they could stay in office and steal, exploit, enjoy tax payer money abuse? http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/The-Eternal-Lulu-82188432.html
