Impeach Christine Quinn

Last December, Christine Quinn made a promise on term limits that left no wiggle room. She vowed to "oppose aggressively" any attempt to change the law.

Now, she has not only reneged on her promise, but made other promises that prove her unworthiness to serve in any capacity. You may recall the Bloomberg/Lauder deal whereby Lauder's Charter Revision Commission will push to roll back the term limits extension. Under this deal, current first-term Council members would get screwed, since they would not only not get a third term, but also lose any chance at seniority during their second term.

Well, Quinn has promised them that they will get a third term too!

She should be ashamed of herself, but apparently Christine Quinn knows no shame.

The time has come for New Yorkers to rise up and force Chris Quinn out of office, by any legal means available. We must also do everything we can to ensure that anyone who votes for this bill never wins another election, and anyone who runs for a third term, whichever way they vote, also loses. The voice of the people, which is the bedrock of the American way, is being trampled on by a couple of billionaires and their lackey.

Meanwhile, come to the press event Sunday at noon, on the steps of City Hall. Arrive early, so you can get through security in time.
