I am old, miserable and male, although my sex has been somewhat irrelevant for at least 5 years. <br /><br />So hell, I'm old and miserable.

Not sure that Karen could live with that. I also heard he's a Catholic. <br /><br />Karen "we need more diversity" Dolan wants to replace one old fart Catholic male with another? <br /><br />That rumor is hard to believe.

But I seriously doubt the accuracy of the assertion that the Solicitor serves at the pleasure of the Council President. <br /><br />The City Clerk serves at the pleasure Of Council, not its President, in the codified ordinances I have seen. I suspect that is also so for its lawyer. <br />If the Solicitor serves at the pleasure of Council, then he can only be fired by Council, not its President. This means that Willie either had no authority to make the call he did, or Council acted outside the Sunshine Act. <br /><br />It's probably an issue he should check out with Spadoni.Bernie O'Harehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13756311150988957401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-41561860586409528992014-02-12T09:03:46.250-05:002014-02-12T09:03:46.250-05:00Just more of the same.

The Clan is done, powerless. Yesterdays news.<br /><br />So now they will dump Spadoni to give a job to another Callahan Clan attorney.
