Crowley, the Queens congressman and county leader, has styled himself as an advocate for homeowners, praising former president Obama’s efforts to expand federal housing programs to make it easier to refinance mortgages at current interest rates, even if more is owed than the value on the home. “We need to find ways to both help people stay in their homes and save more of their income,” he said in 2012.
But Crowley’s words have not matched his actions. He empowers Sweeney’s law firm, maintaining close ties despite its work on behalf of banks. And his brother Sean Crowley is a lobbyist at one of New York’s most influential firms, Davidoff, Hutcher and Citron, where he has lobbied the state government on behalf of the New York Creditors Bar Association, the trade association representing creditors and attorneys engaged in debt collection.
Crowley, however, defended his record.
“Congressman Crowley has been a staunch supporter of middle-class families and will continue to support policies that help keep New Yorkers in their homes,” said Alex Florez, a spokesman for Crowley. “The work the lawyers do on behalf of their clients is independent from the work they put in as volunteers in our effort to help elect good Democrats in Queens.”
When have they ever helped elect a "good Democrat" and not a Tweeder?

What? THIS IS NEW? Rich, mostly white (except for the intensely failed leadership of cognitive disonant sociopaths who now control Jamaica to ruinous effect!), kleptocratic politicians (not public servants), all of whom have seized all power and democracy away from We, The People, as they have taken the best of everything for themselves without consequence, as they leave their ever languishing constituents to rot in the deepest wells of adversity, beggary, obscurity, quiet desperation and PUBLIC SQUALOR——versus, PRIVATE SPLENDOR, power and privilege (neither of which has ever been earned, much less deserved), and unjust enrichment—— and, the public be damned (again and STILL)!

hypocritical liberal? Are there any other kinds?
You can substitute 'politician' for 'liberal' as well.
We get what we vote for.

They consider Tweeders the only good Democrats.
The pseudo progressives like JOE CROWLEY rarely practice what they preach. The Crowleys should be investigated and the electorate should bounce every last one of them.
Hypocritical Liberal is an oxymoron... Innit?
He can't play the guitar or sing either. He thinks he can, but he can't.
LOL this is news. After what 10-20 years these Crowleys, Gallagher's, crooks, crappers and scallywags are all still in office ?
Anyway what kind of democrat liberal ISN'T hypocrite ??
I have a better inquiry that perhaps somebody can s'plain me:
What’s amiss with Queens voters. Why do they continually entrust, reward, re-elect folks who repeatedly butter them up and screw them in the boo-yaa every time they aren't looking ?
