Al Roker (rightfully) tears into DeBlasio over snow policy

http://www.mediaite.com/online/al-roker-rails-against-nyc-mayor-de-blasio-don%E2%80%99t-blame-weather-for-your-poor-policy/

Long story short, city officials told people to get their kids to school and teachers to come into work, but also told the entire city to stay off the roads.

Everywhere outside NYC--Long Island, Westchester, New Jersey--schools are closed.

Huh? United Federations of Teachers are upset too, understandably so--city officials are putting members of the union at risk of physical harm.

Anyways, job #1 of a mayor is dealing with weather emergencies--screw that up, and no one will care about anything else you have to say.
