I might agree with you they are running to the bank over the last 13 years.
BUT,
It wasn't the MIC that beheaded James Foley
It's not becuause of the MIC why EVERY New Yorker looked up for 5 years after a plane flew over
And I'm sorry to say it wasn't the MIC at the podium of the UN yesterday.
And while your criticism is valid, don't be surprised if your words touch a raw nerve that every New Yorker cotinues to live with every time we swipe our metro card.
Yes, are we getting on the train. Yes, are we doing it while reading our phones. Yes, do we just wish it was Friday. But it's there.
That's all.
