Hiram finds religion


From The Politicker:

Here’s Hiram Monserrate this morning at the National Action Network, talking about his decision to return to the Democratic caucus.

At the event, Monserrate likened himself to Jesus, who “began to turn over a few tables” in order “to get the people’s business done right.”

Monserrate went on to say that “if it cost my election because I decided to turn over a table or two, and say that business has got to be done differently, so be it. That means I’m going to be here seven days a week, volunteering at the National Action Network.”


Notice Johnny and the Doorman sitting in the background. Hiram's apostles?

So much for separation of church and state. That Hiram is a real cut up. I'm glad he sees himself as a master debater.

Why is this frickin' Scientologist taking the name of Jesus in vain?

Hasn't his spaceship arrived to take him away with the rest of the Thetans yet?

Here is what he should have quoted: "You shall not turn my father's house into a den of thieves."

Unfortunately, that disqualifies him since he has been busy turning the City Council and the State Senate into a den of thieves with him as Ali Baba Supreme.

People get the government they deserve. They voted for Hiram - buffoon, woman abuser and now Christ impersonator - this is the result.

But I am happy for the comic relief. I wonder whose ass he can wup. Oh right - his girlfriend;s.

You don't have to be sane to hold public office in New York. As long as you're for sale.

This story has been so inspirational that I'm going to buy a nail gun and take a trip up to Jackson Heights as soon as our hero returns from Albany.

I want to be as helpful as possible.

He seems to be holding his own!

It's so nice to be represented by "progressives" the likes of Gioia, Liu, and the Bronx weasel Jeff Klein.

Landlords watch your asses.

In the name of the Father, Hiram, and the Holy Ghost.

Dammit, I sprained my back dragging him onto the cross. Please pass my nail gun.
