Lanza's support of Bloomberg is mystifying and disappointing
Howard Siner | By Howard Siner | Staten Island Advance  I
recently wrote to state Sen. Andrew Lanza expressing my
disappointment on how he acted as spokesperson endorsing Teflon
Mayor Michael Bloomberg for a Republican slot on the mayoral
ballot.  Bloomberg, in my opinion, is a selfish, self-centered
individual who is a political party all to himself.  This
arrogant, pompous man is totally responsible for huge tax
increases during his tenure. He has raised every possible tax,
fee, penalties, fines, etc. affecting the middle class more than
ever.  He is out of touch with everyone but the wealthy. His
recent disrespect to a disabled news reporter, showed the true
side of our mayor.  Bloomberg's daily onslaught of political
ads, ad nauseam, touting his "economic plan" is a farce! Where
was this economic plan before our economic woes?  Why not
implement this plan immediately?
