Quid pro quo for Markowitz?
BROOKLYN'S BEEP FULL OF $HIP: CRITICS
Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz has raised eyebrows for accepting a free trans-Atlantic cruise on the mammoth Queen Mary 2 - after lobbying hard to get the ship to dock in Red Hook.
No word on whether Tony Danza was aboard.

Sounds a lot like a trip to Taiwan (early 1980s) that certain politicos and CB#7 (?) members took......was it with the infamous Tommy Huang?
nice blog
arrest that man!
Can Marty replace Clownie?
Of course Markowitz took a kickback. He's a just another cheesy politician who believes in enriching himself instead of his constituents.
By the way. any bets on which price range he put his snout in: the $1,399 or the $23,399 service?
What ethics committee?
Spike Lee's "CROOKLYN" revisited!
What is it with ouir politicians?
Like kids an a candy store, a few bucks of trinkets and they go ape shit.
