All in the Family featured the curmudgeonly Archie Bunker. Archie was television’s most famous grouch, blunt, blustering, straightforward and untouched by the PC crowd. He was the archetype of the conservative male. Michael desprately tried to reeducate him, but he persisted in his breviloquence.



Looking back at the last 40 years, we realize: ARCHIE WAS RIGHT!

At least it sounds like a good sound bite.

From the New York Post:
Mayor de Blasio’s spokesman, Phil Walzak, said Sunday, “We won’t sit by while lives are lost and families are torn apart. These latest crashes underscore the urgent need to make our streets safer, which is why we are moving decisively to enact ‘Vision Zero’.”
Sounds good to me.  Make the city safer.  Keep people safe from harm.  Protect families, because as we all know New York is the most family friendly place in the world.  Provided the "family" we're talking about is the blue Mafioso.

The above sound bite is in response to this bit of info from the same news story.
Cops bloodied an 84-year-old man and put him in the hospital Sunday when he jaywalked at an Upper West Side intersection and didn’t appear to understand their orders to stop, witnesses said.
In New York the cops are so concerned about your personal safety they will kick your ass.  Especially if you are 84 years old, unarmed and according to witnesses don't understand English.   New York cops care and will do what ever it takes to keep you safe.  They will even take you to the hospital afterwards.  Despite what you may be thinking this isn't about screwing people out of $250 for jaywalking either.  It's all about safety.

Hey Dr. Dre, what up?

  1. You mean the phony Italian mayor who is really a German guy named Wilhelm? He only went Italian when he entered politics.

    If folks thought it was bad under Dinkins, they haven't seen anything yet. Combined with their appallingly bad Governor, they are going to get exactly what they voted in. Heck on earth.

    Did you see where Hannity is taking his 2 shows and leaving NY for either Florida or Texas?

  2. No I didn't see that. It used to be that if you wanted to be in media you had to be in NY or LA. With modern technology the expense of broadcasting is much lower and you can set up a studio anyplace you want. It only makes sense that he would move to a more tax friendly location.

  3. At least they didn't routinely pat him down
