What happened to the lobbying firms the county hired and billed to the taxpayers? The only unsuccessful lobbyists in Albany.

wow thats unusual….but have a good weekend..
and if you can catch the story on the westchester
magazine blog site about phil reisman’s critique
of their story on andy spano it is quite entertaining
They took it personally…and we all know that phil’s
style is tongue and cheek..looks like westchester
magazine is a little too defensive..I wonder why?
of course I know why

the charade is that the county executives are blaming
the state…what about how they run their own governments
what about the cost of the personnel working directly
for them..what about the fact that county government
is no longer necessary and becomes less relevant the
more the state passes along because without the
county government layer of beurocracy, things would
cost less to administer…just a few professional
managers..no elected officails.no meeting fees…
no county office building..in fact take a look at
the county office building..how much a year does
that monstrosity cost..do it in a campus type
