TV Tonight

Yes, it’s Halloween night, but if you’re looking for some New York political news to watch, here’s two choices.
—State Senate Majority Leader Joseph Bruno will be on CNN’s Lou Dobbs Show at 6:30 to rail against Gov. Spitzer’s drivers license plan. Dobbs has been extremely critical of the plan to give illegal immigrants drivers’ licenses and has made a nightly issue out of it.
He even called Spitzer an idiot, but then later apologized on the air.
—Speaking of Spitzer, he’s on Capitol Tonight at 8 p.m. to talk about his license proposal. The show is aired on Time Warner Cable in Albany, Binghamton, Syracuse and Rochester areas.ÂÂ
Here’s some of the transcript from the show, dealing with the on the ongoing controversy over driver licenses to illegal immigrants:
â€Å“I have done precisely what the public sent me to Albany to do, which is to shake and rattle the cage of a system that was not responding to a changed economy, changed circumstances. Inevitably in that context, there will be some for whom the rattling and the shaking isn’t so comfortable.ÂÂ
“We are in the position we’re in right now because of the failure of Washington. Washington’s immigration policies have been a debacle.”
“You have a million people right now who are not in (the DMV) database.ÂÂ And they’re floating out there unbeknownst to us.ÂÂ That’s a hazard, that’s a risk.”
