Is New York dangerously arrogant? Well, were certainly arrogant. Consider Gov. Cuomo, who had a bring em on moment last Thursday night after the city eagerly welcomed its first Ebola case.
What happened in Dallas was the exact opposite of what will happen in Gotham, the governor intoned. Its unfortunate.
Cuomos mess-with-Texas swagger sounds reckless and this kind of stuff is why the rest of the country hates us. But our way works.

I'm surprised the Murdoch-owned rw rag NY Post published this.

That Dallas hospital dropped the ball big time.

(24,853 posts)And in the death,
As the last few corpses lay rotting on the slimy
Thoroughfare,
The shutters lifted in inches in Temperance Building,
High on Poacher's Hill.
And red, mutant, eyes gaze down on Hunger City.
No more big wheels.
Fleas the size of rats sucked on rats the size of cats,
And ten thousand peoploids split into small tribes,
Coveting the highest of the sterile skyscrapers,
Like packs of dogs assaulting the glass fronts of Love-Me Avenue.
Ripping and rewrapping mink and shiny silver fox, now leg-warmers.
Family badge of sapphire and cracked emerald.
Any day now,
The year of the Diamond Dogs.
