Bloomberg Remark Excludes Self from MTA Mess

Develop Don't Destroy Brooklyn

The Mayor never fails to entertain with his (choose one): a) duplicity, b) total lack of self-awareness or c) both of the above.

The Daily News captured this comment from Mayor Bloomberg on Albany's "sudden" failure to deliver more than $350 million to New York's transit system:

"I don't know why anybody is surprised at what is happening to the MTA," [Bloomberg] said. "It's a piggy bank that keeps getting raided."

Yes, the out-of-touch Mayor is correct: raided under the direction of the Mayor and his developer cronies.
