Peter Vallone Doesn't Like Tardiness
Here's a clip of Councilman Peter Vallone laying into a representative from Con Ed New York City Economic Development Corporation after it finally delivered a long-awaited report -- just minutes before today's hearing about last year's blackout and Con Ed's preparedness for spikes in usage this summer.
"You know, we're used to this double-talk from Con Ed," Vallone said at one point, "but we did not expect that today."

i wonder if Vallone would have acted that way if no cameras were in the room. In his case, the apple falls VERY far from the tree.
I just left that hearing and these Queens Councilmen were definately mugging for the reporters. The guys from EDC explained that the report was public information for a month. I know electeds can be lazy, but this is a little outrageous.
Eh, great job there Pete, but, you know I just passed by your house and the lights are all out ...
I didnt see any cameras in the room
