    Higgins breaks with Pelosi

    So Brian Highins will no longer support Nancy Pelosi as the Democratic leader in the House. Apparently, he can’t get anything done under Pelosi. This is no surprise. He couldn’t get anything done in the state assembly either and eventually he turned on Sheldon Silver. Pelosi is the purest form of pond scum but my guess is in this case the problem ain’t the leadership. Higgins is a joke to everyone but the editorial board of the shoe shine rag. Unlike old EF Hutton, when Higgins talks nobody listens.

    There has to be some items he accomplished. How would have stayed in elected positions for so many years?

    Because he always has safe Democratic districts centered on south Buffalo. He’s tied into all the Irish mafia there.

    Want to know the level of respect for Higgins in the House, it was right there in the article. Pelosi scheduled a meeting with him and then just blew him off. And who can blame her. How can anyone take seriously someone whose solution to the Medicare funding crisis is to add millions more people to Medicare! Want to know the level of respect for Higgins in the community? When he announced his opposition to NFTA’s idiotic subway expansion plan, NFTA went right ahead with its decision to piss away $5 million in taxpayer money on a “study” of the expansion, the conclusions of which are preordained or they’d never commission it. This, despite the fact that presumably they’d need Higgins’ help to get the federal money to fund that abortion.

    Higgins: Nancy is the best. We're a great couple.

    Pelosi: Hey Brian! Aww, you're sweet. Couple? Anyways, thanks for the complement.

    Higgins: Hey Buffalo. Do you see my new girl? We're gonna be great and you will be popular too when I bring you along for the ride.

    Buffalo: Super. Can't wait.

    Higgins: Hey Nancy, what's the plan this weekend?

    Pelosi: Sorry. Already have plans.

    Buffalo: Hey Bry-guy. When is the next party?

    Higgins: Just waiting for my girl Nancy to get back to me.

    Higgins: Nancy, how was your weekend? When is the next party? Buffalo is willing to pay for the keg if you invite them.

    Buffalo: Um, sure. I guess. Where is the party.

    Pelosi: Hey guys. Not sure on the next party. I'll let you know.

    Higgins: See Buffalo. My girl Nancy looking out for us.

    Buffalo: Are you sure? Still have not gone to a party.

    Higgins: Nancy, Buffalo and I are getting a little frustrated.

    Pelosi: Ok.

    Higgins: Either take us to the party or we are no longer dating?

    Pelosi: Who said we were dating? I just needed your math homework last November.

    Higgins: Buffalo. I am putting my foot down. Nancy isn't cool. We're breaking up.

    Buffalo: So where is the party?

    My understanding is that Higgins and Joe Crowley, who lost in a primary upset this past Tuesday, were quite good buddies and that Crowley was being mentioned as a possible replacement for Pelosi. Not any more!!!

    Higgins played the wrong hand and now is going to be able to deliver even less for the region....
