John Liu lied that he worked in a sweatshop with his mother since his father couldn't find a job within his means.  Yet the Daily News revealed Liu's father first job in US was INTERNATIONAL OFFICER in Hokkaido Takushoku Bank.  And even Liu now states his mother brought work from the factory and he sometimes helped her.  Liu's family bought a split level home with 2 car garage in 1977 when he was barely 10 years old.

John Liu exploits the Immigrants who really did work in sweat shop factories and were paid such minimal wages that they live in large groups in tiny apartments. 

Please do your research on LIu, even his own mother calls him on LIES.

John Liar's new ad with images of women in crowded factory while voice over "WORKING IN THAT SWEATSHOP AS A KID TAUGHT HIM WHY WE NEED TO' but  his parents and two of his mother's friends say it NEVER happened.  HIs mother worked at home because she had to take care of Liu and his siblings

John Liar's other ad claims he helped catch MTA using 2 sets of books. But the claim was made in 2003 STATE controller's audit and a state appeals court later ruled the allegation was UNTRUE.  Perhaps Liu's father who was convicted of BANK FRAUD kept 2 sets of books

NYT articles shed more light on Simcha Felder and Mayor Bloomberg back door dealings

http://www.nytimes.com/2009/08/04/nyregion/04funds.html?pagewanted=1&_r=1

WTH IS FBI???????  Quinn and Felder belongs in jail as john liuj's father was in jail. don't trust them. 

Dialing 911, dialing FBi, dialing authorities to INVESTIGATE Simcha Felder who received ALOT of pork from Mayor Bloomberg and overturn our votes and extend term limits to 12 years.  Now Simcha Felder runs unopposed for his 3rd term and has raised the most money in the city council races.  Simcha Felder who ran a kangaroo hearing on overturning term limits which gave Bloomberg's supporters priority while the rest of us waited for hours to speak and most of the city council members left the hearing before we spoke.  Even Felder who was head of the committee left early instead of listening to all the speakers.

in the allegations that Bloomberg said "kill it" in regards to his employee Mrs Garrison's unborn and his company discrimination of pregnant workers, it is consistent with Bloomberg's mayoral control.  His numeral successes are more important than children.  Test scores are more important than the overcrowding and narrow focus on tests  in schools. 

Someone who doesn't respect life and is dignity shouldn't be in charge of our children.  This mayor scapegoated and gassed THOUSAND$$ of geese for no real reason but to KILL. This mayor cares about his own EGO and wants high test scores to tout his own horn at the cost of our children who are deprived of a broad well rounded education.  Life is not about passing test but about finding solutions.  If you look beyond these test scores which are questionable, you will see that mayoral control has been a BIG FAILURE.  

In response to your comment If NYLCV (New York League of Conservation Voters) were to have issued a numerical score for the Speaker, Christine Quinn would have scored a perfect 100".

Of the 13 bills scored, only 5 of them were passed and one of them wasn't a bill but a resolution. Everyone knows that no bill is passed without Speaker Quinn's support. We seen how Quinn Fast tracked the Mayor's bill to extend term limit without a public referendum while other bills remained dusting in committee for years.   In their 2006 she received a 11% score and most likely her score would have been lower if the NYLCV had scored her this year.

New York League of Conservation Voters (NYLCV) released their 2008-2009 NYC council scorecard and decided to not score Speaker Quinn as they have done in previous years.  In their 2006 she received a 11% score and most likely her score would have been lower if the NYLCV had scored her this year.  Everyone knows that no bill is passed without Speaker Quinn's support. We seen how Quinn Fast tracked the Mayor's bill to extend term limit without a public referendum while other bills remained dusting in committee for years.  How does the NYLCV justified not scoring Quinn and even applauding her exemplary leadership on their front page when most of these bills haven't even been voted on and not even passed????

Speaker Quinn not only doesn't address the community needs but you can't even reach the office. Call her phone number (212) 788-7210 and you will receive no answer but a voice recording stating "I'm sorry, there is no room to record your message".  Her district office's response is to continue calling the number until someone picks up and her press office informs me to email her.  However I send several emails with NO response.  Speaker Quinn HAS TO GO.  

I'm no fan of Working Family Party since they endorsed Slush Fund Deputy Mayor Christine Quinn.  However, I thank them for not endorsing king Blooomberg since these weekend would have been filled with mailings, emails, tweeters, phone calls, ads, canvasing etc on this endorsement. This mean one weekend without any contact from Bloomberg's campaign or any....., wait a second, I have to go, Bloomberg campaign office is on phone to inform me of Queens Chronicle endorsement, fck!!!!!

The city rewarded a no-bid 10 year contract for the friends of the High Line to get EXCLUSIVE rights to sell food and merchandise.  This city is scare for resources and King bloomberg has raises taxes and cut essential services. Yet King Bloomberg and Deputy Mayor Christine Quinn has given our public space to private friends and contributers.  Founders of the friends of High Line has endorsed Mayor Bloomberg and board members contributed over $100,000 to Deputy Mayor Christine Quinn.

This is HIGHWAY ROBBERY. If slush fund Queen Quinn and King bloomberg were serving the people then the deal would provided us-the city with a cut of the profits.  There are lines of tourists waiting on the streets to entered the new High Line park - weed-filled 1.5 mile-long stretch of abandoned elevated railroad right-of-way. This deal is worth millions of dollars stolen from the people of NYC.  Time to kick both Bloomberg and his YESGAL Quinn out.

Deputy Mayor Slush Fund Queen Christine C. Quinn and king Michael R. Bloomberg today announced a $20 million commitment to fund a pilot program that will turn unsold condominiums, market-rate rental buildings and stalled construction sites into affordable housing opportunities for moderate and middle-income families.

First, that the city will overpay for the condos, making this into a developer bailout program.

And second, that too much scarce affordable housing funding will be diverted from the low-income people who need assistance most to higher-income people who can afford the subisidized condos. 

NOT WANTED: JOHN LIU FOR NYC COMPTROLLER

He received the endorsement of none other than the Consummmate insider Charlie Rangel, who we all know is quite the crook between undeclared taxes and taking up four rent-stablized apartments when most of the people in his community can't afford one.

New Board of Education voted to do nothing till Sept.  The board of education states there is not much to attend to during summer session so won't meet till Sept. Didn't king Bloomberg state there would be chaos yesterday if mayoral control isn't pass and now he states not much needs to be done during summer session.   What a fiasco, this is the best time for them to act and plan for the coming year.  Shame on them for selling out to King Bloomberg. Bloomberg must be terrified. He needs to keep Klein in place to cover his dirty deals - such as lack of NYC licensing of inner circle friends in the DOE, illegal contracts and inflated test scores.. A change in chancellor just might expose Bloomberg and Klein's corrupt practices. How can they be held accountable, when they call the shots. There is no independent monitoring of the budget or of student data. We need a strong system of checks and balances and then we can hold these crooks accountable.

Mayor states that mayoral control must passed and irregardless if the mayoral bill doesn't pass that summer schools will remain open.  When a reporter asked Mayor Bloomberg is anyone suggested if summer schools should not be opened then doublespeak Bloomberg responded "why would anyone suggest not to serve the children?"  then Gov Patterson. Bloomberg's crony stated that he will ensure resources are provided that summer schools remain open.

Again Bloomberg's uses rhetoric and lies to scare the public to have it HIS way.  Schools will not be closed and Bloomberg is a disgrace to even suggest that they will be closed if mayoral control bill isn't passed.

Bloomberg stated at the Capital Press conference today that he would be hard press to explain this kind of democracy to children in the school system.  Hey Bloomberg how about explaining to us  first on extending term limits without a public referendum. Explain to us how the city council  voted to extend their own jobs and guaranteed themselves a life time pension that taxpayers will foot the bill? Explain to us how extending term limits now has many more races unopposed since people can't run against the incumbent's pork? Explain to us Bloomberg since you refuse to address this issue and even call a reporter a disgrace for raising such a question.
