Key kids, senior programs saved

City steps in for troubled club

BY BOB KAPPSTATTER
DAILY NEWS BRONX BUREAU CHIEF

A Bronx congressman yesterday praised the smooth takeover of dozens of programs serving thousands of youngsters and seniors across the borough after the city yanked funding from two sponsoring agencies that have come under a cloud.
The nonprofit Gloria Wise Boys & Girls Club and its affiliate Pathways for Youth found their city contracts, running into the millions of dollars, abruptly ended last month by the city Department of Investigation.

The city quickly brought in outside agencies on one-year contracts to run the programs, including the Jewish Association for Seniors for Aged and the Police Athletic League, with in-place workers kept on the job pending individual evaluations.

Rep. Joseph Crowley, who has secured more than $500,000 in federal funding for Gloria Wise programs in the the past few years, said he and his staff "have spent countless hours" working with the city, the Co-op City community where a number of the programs are based, other Bronx elected officials and the new contractors.

He praised the city for what he called "an apparently seamless transfer of contracts" that have kept all the programs up and running without interruption for an estimated 20,000 or so youngsters, handicapped individuals and seniors.

"What is paramount is that they are maintaining the programs," he said. "This is a work in progress."

Crowley (D-Bronx, Queens) said he was "totally shocked - shocked is an understatement" when news of the loss of funding first broke.

He said he and other elected officials are still in the dark over the exact nature of the probe.

In its initial announcement, the DOI said it was probing allegations that program officials "approved significant inappropriate transactions and falsified documents that were submitted to various city agencies."

According to published reports, the allegations involve Charles Rosen, the founder of Gloria Wise who has stepped down as executive director, investing city contract funds in Air America Radio, the liberal talk radio network.

Evan Cohen, Air America's former chairman, had served as Gloria Wise's director of development.

Cohen certainly does have some stink attached to him and I hope he gets nailed if he's guilty. I do want to point out that TLC seems to have this guy nailed to a cross already, despite these just being allegations. Funny how the hypocrisy works in a self-professed liberal who is anything but.

But, this has nothing to do with Air America, itself. Rather, it seems to be the work of a greedy bastard.

Sounds kind of like conjur, who has nailed Rove and Libby to the cross already, and claims NOT to be a liberal.

At least there we have proof in the form of grand jury testimony. When we have proof in this case, we can call Cohen a criminal.

Rove has a history of doing those types of things.

Air America does not.

You see the difference?

Add Tom 'The Hammer' DeLay to that list, too. He should, according to Dean, 'be back in Texas serving his jail sentence' as we speak (type).

I have no idea; instead of, as Darkhawk28 said, letting "the investigators do their job and we'll see what happens," the lynch mob was all over Tom for doing exactly what they have done for years.

I was replying to the "Yup, if it is rove he doesn't deserve due process of law." Seems if it is any Republican, they don't deserve due process...that was my point. Once the Democrats' dirty laundry was aired out for everyone to see, they sort of shut their mouths on this one (hard to talk with their feet shoved in there).

Has Nancy Pelosi's intern even finished revising her paperwork, or is she still in line over there behind the rest of the hypocrites? That was my point to the "let the investigators do their job" apologists.

The Republicans are getting desperate.

NEXT!

I'm not making excuses for Cohen, was I? Was I? Now shut your mouth about that. I've been taking my time and reading more about Cohen and it turns out he's a shady character and that he's sort of duped other investors and such. If he did anything illegal, then let him fry for it. Air America has already fired his ass in May.

I call them as I see them. Perhaps people in these forums would rather I act as the puppetmaster wishes, but I am right in the center of logic lane, driving full speed.

I've bashed Bush and Republican polices in some threads and Democrats in others. I am sorry if I am not partisan enough for your liking. Please forgive me, masta.

A right wing blog said it, it must be true!

according to one account

Has there been a media cover-up? In the Radio Equalizer's view, yes

LOL!

Update: Michelle Malkin wonders what excuses liberals will use. Read my comments section below, they've already begun.

Great, the queen idiot is behind this story.


Even if there is some truth in it, I fail to see how the whole network is at fault. It sounds like Cohen was the perp. Do you think Al Franken was involved, all of the hosts? LOL, the best deffense is an offense huh? Of course attacking a radio station doesn't some how equalize a corrupt White House. Reach for straws much?

I read your post again and the quote you used.

I guess that because I feel EVERYONE deserves due process and we should, as Darkhawk correctly stated, let jurisprudence run its course, that equates me to being a "BushLuva." Please stop letting the hate blind you and your reasoning; this is why my party has lost ground every single election in the last decade. Rather than offer solutions, people like you and Kennedy and Pelosi and Ried and Daschle and Boxer and and and and and and Dean and and and Byrd and and and the list goes on, have hijacked the party and rather oppose everything than offer anything. Think about it.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) filed delinquent reports Friday for three trips she accepted from outside sponsors that were worth $8,580 and occurred as long as seven years ago, according to copies of the documents. ...

The most expensive trip was not reported on Pelosi's annual financial disclosure statement or on the travel disclosure form that is required within 30 days of a trip. ...

The unreported trip was a week-long 1999 visit to Taiwan, paid for by the Chinese National Association of Industry and Commerce, for "meetings with government, military and business officials," according to a filing Pelosi signed June 30. The flights cost $3,400 each for Pelosi and her husband. The hotel cost was $940. The sponsor, which has picked up trips for leaders of both parties, paid $300 for meals.

Whats the difference between the CNAIC and a lobbyist? Perhaps the former might have tax-exempt status, but clearly they have an interest in greasing the skids for Pelosi and others to remain friendly to their economic interests. Not to pile on, but the sponsors also paid for Pelosi's husband. Why? Does Pelosi employ her husband as a consultant? If that seems harsh, remember that the Democrats have claimed that DeLay's hiring of family as paid staff violates ethical standards, even though DeLay has openly done so and reported their incomes as legitimate campaign and operational expenses. If Pelosi has the same arrangement for her husband, then she should reveal that. If not, lobbyists shouldn't be giving him free flights to exotic locations that supposedly related to official government business.

Almost all politicians are sleazes, no matter what side of the spectrum.

Sorry, this guy and the rest of your sources don't seem to have a solid case. In any event has anyone contacted Air America about this?

Don't know, but this is an interesting read....
