The Borough President of Brooklyn, <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/25/nyregion/for-brooklyn-leader-marty-markowitz-mix-of-business-charity-and-power.html?_r=1&hp=&pagewanted=all">Marty Markowitz</a>, rose to power simply by showing up, at street fairs, house parties, and barbecues, a jovial fellow eager to press the flesh and eat it, too, if it was offered. He seemed harmless enough. The office he's since made his sinecure, Borough President, is basically a cheerleading one, and he does it with gusto, getting all Brooklyn on us by parlaying a stereotype that was old by the 1970s. Again, seemingly harmless, a colorful advertisement of pretend attitude. But Markowitz has really made a name for himself, and enriched his network of charities -- that political euphemism for "money laundering operations" -- by $20 million dollars by playing patty-cake with developers, bankers, and corporate goons, the destroyers of the very borough he claims to cheerlead for. $20 million buys a lot of allies, but there's only one thing to say to Markowitz's dream of being NYC mayor: fuhgeddaboudit!Matthewhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13334628837533439470noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6093759420479830071.post-10430767656021151902011-10-17T20:46:00.001-04:002011-10-17T20:46:48.574-04:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
