by Rock Hackshaw

Politics blogger Rock Hackshaw defends ACORN against charges of election fraud, but not against bad judgment on the part of Chief Organizer Bertha Lewis when it comes to Brooklyn mega-projects.

I didn’t agree with Bertha’s position on the Atlantic Yards development project; nor did I care to see her sucking face with Mike Bloomberg (lol) a few years ago. But then she is human, and we all do make mistakes. Backing Bruce Ratner’s project -the way it was shaped then- was not Bertha’s shining moment. She probably knows this by now.
