I guess all it took was a scathing editorial in yesterdays Buffalo News, a few articles in the local section and a two day blast on the front page. That coupled with the local talk radio guys ripping him a new one. It also seems that the story was getting some national interest as well.
It seems the Mayor was misinterpreted. A yet to be named subordinate didn't get the memo, I guess.
How low will this guy sink in his attempt to pander to public opinion. Did he and Casey really think they where bigger than the 1st amendment? When he realized the public didn't care for his arrogence he figured they might accept him looking unaware of what his administrators have been doing, or trying to do , for the last six months. Niether tack is acceptable, but which is worse.
The real tragedy in all of this is we will probably have this dissapointment in office for the next two terms. Particularly since the new dynamic duo of Casey and Pigeon are calling the shots.
Buffalo's future can be pretty much written off now.
