You don't need to be a New Yorker to be confused and bemused by this - the speaker of the state Assembly reading from Paul Schrader's Taxi Driver script, with all the naughty words replaced by "expletives."

I don't know why O'Reilly dislikes Speaker Silver. How can you dislike the Speaker when is only bad habit is being a full time partner in one of the largest civil litigation law firms in the country. You must admire a man who can steal money through both the legislative and judicial branches of government.
they need to get michiel medved to read that.
