NYC NEWS:
Cuomo hits Bloomie's pet with civil fraud case...it's about time! The level of corruption within the Bloomberg administration may not be up to Louisiana or Chicago standards, but it is still a problem...more: Cuomo: Rattner Is ‘Worst Example’ Of Pay-To-Play Fraud...I have a long memory. I remembre Steve Rattner was also a major donor to my former City Council member with high ambition, David Yassky. I am sure David Yassky will try again to run for a higher office and I hope people will remember his ties to the Steve Rattner corruption as well as the Steve DiBrienza corruption.
And Bloomberg closes MORE firehouses, even though already in some areas firehouse coverage is below safe levels: Bloomberg to close firehouses at night

GRASSROOTS NYC: This is an organization founded by fellow Daily Gotham blogger and DFNYC activist Dan Jacoby.
GrassrootsNYC was created to provide a new method for generating real government reform in New York City. Instead of the old-fashioned method of fighting for reform (and usually not getting much done), GrassrootsNYC aims to leverage the power of tens of thousands of reform-minded New Yorkers to force our government to work for us - the way our Founding Fathers intended government to work.
This is a real chance for you to get involved in reforming our political system from the bottom up. To find out more, visit GrassrootsNYC's website and sign up for updates.
