    Bush to City: Drop Dead

    20050617fordtocity.jpgIt's not surprising when W. tries to screw over the city financially, but, still, it's worth noting. Reports the News:

    New York lawmakers made a last-ditch appeal yesterday to stop the feds from taking back $125 million in unspent 9/11 relief money meant for workers injured at Ground Zero.
    You remember the rescue workers, right, George? The ones surrounding you when you did your little bullhorn photo op at Ground Zero? The ones who you told, "I can hear you, the rest of the world hears you, and the people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon?" Just checking.

    Steadfast leadership, eh?
