| The Joe Bruno-Eliot Spitzer feud is neverending and today, it reached a new low.
Bruno was speaking before the New York State Investors Conference when he said this about Governor David Paterson and former Gov. Eliot Spitzer.
"This governor gets it," he said, referring to Gov. David A. Paterson. "The previous governor didn't get it. So he's not here anymore. He got some things, but he didn't get away with it. And that is not a good thing, O.K. That's why he's in psychiatric care."
Then Bruno decided then to see if there were any reporters in the room because, obviously, he didn't want THAT in the papers.
Oops.
Here is what Bruno said to reporters after his shot at Spitzer:
"Any reporters here?" Mr. Bruno called out.
"Jay, you write that I'm going to take your pencil, O.K., and swallow it," he called out to a few reporters gathered in the back of a dining hall at The State Room banquet hall.
"You're not writing that, are you?" he continued.
"Jimmy will," Mr. Bruno said, referring to a reporter for an Albany newspaper who was also in the room.
"See, they spoil it," Mr. Bruno quipped to the crowd. "Because I had some other things I was going to share but now I'm not."
Good job Joe. I'm sure your boy McArdle will be out tomorrow with all sorts of jabs. I'm looking forward to it. |
