Our **lindacohen** is a saucy, ass-talking Navaho wench. Today Al Franken was talking about this on his show; he described Mr. Cohen as a “crook” who secured an improper loan and left a giant mess behind him. And apparently right-wing talking heads are using phrases like “Air Enron”, since clearly Air America is just as bad as Enron (if you’re a halfwit). ---

> [@Mr. Moto](#): > > Actually, if you read the statement, all it says is that they agreed to reimburse the club. There’s no mention there that the club has been reimbursed fully at this time. Gee, **Mr. Moto** , if only I’d said something exactly like > [@Marley23](#): > > I suppose I shouldn’t say with certainty that I know that means they gave all the money back. It appears that some agreement was reached, however. You quoted me saying it, man, come on. ---

> [@E-Sabbath](#): > > Then, Mr. Moto, I assign you the task of finding out what these government bodies feel about this event. Go on. Return shortly with some information. You are aware, aren’t you, that grant money for programs for children and the elderly was abruptly pulled from the Gloria Wise Center, and day to day administration of these programs was transferred to other agencies, like the Jewish Association for Seniors for Aged and the Police Athletic League. In addition, the center is the target of an ongoing probe by the city’s Department of Investigation, and New York Attorney General Spitzer seems to be assisting in this.
