Addie Russell gave a deer in the headlight performance at her press conference yesterday speaking in a legalese that sought to eat up time describing the process of the chamber picking a new Speaker but steadfastly refusing to say why a new Assembly clarion hotel orlando Speaker was in fact needed in Albany, NY.
Addie just couldn t bring herself to say that Silver clarion hotel orlando will eventually be indicted and now out on 200,000 bail is likely a crook that s he supported to the last breath of his Speakership. Now she has qualified her support of Up-State clarion hotel orlando interim Speaker Joe Morelle, clarion hotel orlando because she s not going to put it on the line for Up-State NY.
Instead Assemblywoman clarion hotel orlando Russell who failed to stand for good gov t, and fight the good fight to end the culture of corruption in Albany, NY will play it safe. Addie will vote for whoever the eventual winner will likely be and that s just plain wrong too when we have a chance to have a Speaker clarion hotel orlando from Up-State NY. She won t stand unequivocally for Up-State NY, because she never had the courage to really stand up for NNY.
Despite her protestations yesterday Assemblywoman Russell was never a champion of reform in the Assembly. clarion hotel orlando What she championed was passage of the Woman s Equality Act, (WEA) and both Gov. Cuomo and Addie Russell felt they needed Speaker Sheldon Silver clarion hotel orlando to get that legislation passed two years ago.
They each sold their souls to a very corrupt Speaker Silver, morality and ethics be damned along with all hopes of ending the Pay for Play culture in Albany, NY. The short version clarion hotel orlando she stayed loyal to a crook like Silver for political reasons it had nothing to do with loyalty or not wanting to kick Silver when he was down and everything to do with trying to advance her agenda and political career; even at the expense of fighting for a push for honest gov t in Albany, NY.
It looks like we re stuck with this fraud until next election, when as voters we can let Addie Russell know we don t believe her BS about being a reformer or a proponent of good government in Albany, NY. You can fool some of the people some of the time Addie, but your days of fooling voters in this District have come to an end.
We can t trust Assemblywoman Addie Russell s motives, ethics or judgment any longer and that was the real message clarion hotel orlando of her press conference yesterday. And believe me the fact we know the t
