Day six as mayor, de Blasio linked to corruption. Turns out his desire to eliminate horse-drawn carriage rides through Central Park might not be about “animal rights” but rather some de Blasio campaign contributors hoping they can develop the land where the stables currently sit.

What is it with these commucrats? What happens when you tell so many lies you can't remember when you said you believed what
"New York City mayor Bill de Blasio spent nearly half a million dollars on his inauguration on January 1. $35,250 of that was for a Teleprompter."

And the other day he was eating pizza on Staten Island, WITH A KNIFE AND FORK!!!
Here is 1 way to eat pizza...

Wait 'til she gets to the jalapeno!
What, no beer?
I think that should constitute animal cruelty.
He is loving' that pie!
too cute to shoot.
Oh, that's just unforgivable.
It is if you're from NY or NJ.
Hey if President Clumsy hadn't tried eating a tamale with the husk still on it, I would never have thought anyone coud be so ddumb. The forst comment I hear about Hizzoner is that he is married to a black woman. That seems to be a strong basis for why he was elected!
His early slogan was "go with the fro", no joke, using a silhouette of his son's do.
"tried eating a tamale with the husk still on it"
HEY! I did that once. ONCE. I was re-newed to Texas and was only about 10 or 11 when it happened. Tanks for recalling a distressing and disgraceful memory. :P
ach are ya lookin' for a face full of heid?
You were a child. That's different. Recentl some other adult politician ( I am useing chronological age here) did the same thing! After the National news coverage on FOrd for that, I cannot believe it has happened again! Are the politicians and their handlers ALL so out of touch with the reality of the Nation as a whole that no one knew, or advised the guy to remove the husk. Wait, what am I asking. Of course they are out ot touch with anything NOT from New York, LA, or DC.
Just don't eat pizza with a fork when "smoozing" with the common folk from Jersey or the OTM*
*other than Manhattan
The problem is, he's a freaking Italian from New York! It just shows how out of touch he is with the reality of living in NY.
He's right. I ha v e never'm lived in New York, but I know you buy a slice and fold it, then eat. With hands, not utensils.
I could murder one of these:

heck bring it unsliced and i'll roll it up like a tamale and eat it.
And, it's not how they eat pizza in Italy either!
Seems you're not the only one

"...and scolded de Blasio for saying it’s just how people eat pizza “in my ancestral homeland.” Stewart cried, “Were you elected the mayor of Italy? No!”
HAH, I will go you one better. not only do the Germans eat pizza with a knife and fork.....I have seen them eat RIBS that way.
Thanks Rose.
It's . Mo lay. Most tamales are m are from pork, frequently the head, but can have Beans, jalapeno spiced filling beef and . Even fruit and nuts. When served with Chile or mole the husks should be removed before adding any sauce.
That's the way all the little old Mexican ladies I know make and serve them.
JP:
Here's a pic of some tamales with a side of mole (not sure if it's pronounced mole or molay or moley. though likely not moley.) I have yet to see tamales tied up like this, and they're sometimes covered in sauce before you get them, which makes discerning the wrapper much more difficult.

It is my experience that the best tamales are the ones that have been cooked with the goat head included, though one wouldn't make a sammich with bones in, leastways nobody I know, so good on your friend for warnin ya before hand.
Oh, die armen unwissenden Seelen
Tamales are made of a corn floor mash shell with a variety of goodies inside. The are wrapped in corn husks and steamed to cook the shell. You have to take off the husk to eat them.
I eat pizza with a fork and to make matters worse I have no idea what people are talking about with this tamale husk business. Must be a Southwest thing. Up here in Michigan the Mexicans go to Ole Taco like everybody else.
I did have a close call with a goat roti once - luckily my Caribbean-background friend warned me before I chomped down real hard and broke my tooth on a goat bone. The logic of leaving bones in a sandwich escapes me, but they taste damn good I have to admit.
Racism?
My names is Jerr... uh mr Johnes and welcome to Glorious Progressive State of New York, would you like a roach biscuit and kevlar before starting your tour?
I am still stuck trying to wrap my head around Bloomers not being a Dem. Mind boggling. This, on the other hand, is typical behaviour and not surprising at all.
Boehner and McCain aren't Democrats, either. I guess you can call yourself pretty much whatever you want, regardless of it's truth.
Hell that didn't take long. At least doucheberg waited nearly a whole month before starting to payoff all his cronies in NYC. The uneducated, low information voters put him in office just knowing that he would see to it that they got theirs. Well, they are about to get it and get it good. All of you NYC people who remember Dinkins and his running of NYC, you are now about to get a bigger taste of what that was like. Enjoy and please for God sake stay there. We don't need your ignorant liberal asses moving south and spreading your viruses down here.
See we love God and country. Something that is very foreign to most of you in NY and NYC.
Another Communist Democrat Turd, another felon.

If it's unethical, corrupt, illegal or immoral there is a Democrat behind it.
And in this case, cpu doesn't stand for computer processing unit

Gotta wonder what else he promised or got paid off for before the election? New York, the ugly twin sister to Chitcago. Let the rape, pillage and plunder continue in the name of progress...Forward!
Is this a record?
That didn't take long.
About 2 days longer than I thought it would.
365 days longer than it should have taken.
I notice you didn't get to my drive yet, it's on today's schedule, right? Have one of these waiting for you when you're finished

Hey, we're back above zero finally (barely) but the wind's still a bitch.
Just what is it that makes you think I would leave Florida for the tundra?

Hey, if you ever get the FB posts about supporting Hillary for President, open the comments and read. Hell, leave your OWN comments. It's fun.
Show me the person who is surprised at this, and I'll show you someone who is not from NYC or NJ.
This is "dog bites man".
How do you know a politician is corrupt?
His breath fogs a mirror.
