Re: “Small Group That Wants To Throw Their Money Around In Political Races”; If By “Group” You Mean . . .

The ones who “want to be able to not wash their hands after they go to the bathroom, and not refrigerate their food, and not keep the cockroaches and the rats and mice out”* must be the same ones who are naysaying the most job-creative third term of all time:

City investigators have discovered evidence of large-scale fraud in one of the agencies leading Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg’s signature initiative to find jobs for unemployed New Yorkers.

. . .

The reports of fraud come as a blow to Mr. Bloomberg, who sought a third term based on his ability to lead the city in a tough economy and has heralded his administration’s success in finding jobs for unemployed New Yorkers. The mayor has praised the role nonprofit groups, paid by the city, have had in the jobs effort.

The news is also troubling for Seedco, a well-regarded nonprofit organization that has stood at the heart of many of the mayor’s initiatives, including job placement and cash grants for welfare clients, and loan programs for small businesses and entrepreneurs.
