I bet Rudy is PI**ED! Bloomburg gets a 3rd term and he didn't!

I can't believe the city council can just change the laws after the voters of the city voted on those at least twice! But the more I think about it, I guess a city council can enact or overturn the laws of the city the same as Congress can do the same for the Country.

1. Piefaced? *** MIDNIGHT DEADLINE *** DONATE NOW ***

[Me.]

2. Not Happy About This Grab For Power

51% said in a poll yesterday they were against it and 90% said they think it should be a referendum. I guess that's why it was pushed through in this way.

3. FINE. Let him.

But then again, he's got a LOT to be upset about. All of it self-inflicted.

:nopity:

4. Bloomberg doesn't get a third term

unless he's elected to it.

6. Who's running against him? I haven't heard. n/t

[malaise]

5. You think that will happen after this reaches the courts?

I doubt it.

8. I don't know. What court can it be presented to? At first, I thought

the same as you, but then I thought about the typical gov't structures. AFAIK, Congress has the ability to pass new laws that would render the old ones mute, as long as the Prez signs them. In that same vein, a governor and state legislature has those same powers within the State, and a mayor & city council the same within a city. Am I seeing this wrong?

7. Could Rudy run for the job against Bloomberg now?

[Fuzz]

9. Going against the will of the voters once again.

It also applies to city council as well. Conflict of interest?

10. Sound linke Bush - ignoring the law

[rug]

11. Giuliani is the reason term limits were put in in the first place.

12. Rudy should just run again!?!?!?.....if it's legal now.....n/t
