Giuliani said he spent as much time at ground zero as many rescue workers. Where was he really? Much of the time, at baseball games.

    So, having a fascist was the only option?

    >So before you get in your pile remember, if you can what a decrepit joke the city had become.<

    Yep, because New York has never, ever had a mayor who brought the city back from the brink without virtual martial law; accelerating the process of making NYC a place where only the rich can live--and black men getting shot for no good reason. As we all know, anything is justified so long as ignorant/fearful white people feel safe--and everyone else pays the price.
