Most Chutzpah-ish Statement On Public Sector Cuts

United States Congressman David Cicilline (D-RI), regarding the termination notices sent to Providence school teachers because of budget problems:

“U.S. Rep. David Cicilline said Monday that the $57-million-plus deficit facing Providence will require looking at personnel reductions, union concessions and looking at reserve funds.”

Now he tells us.

Cicilline was the Mayor of Providence until he was elected last November to the Congress.  Cicilline never took any of these hard decisions or actions, because it would have upset the numerous unions who backed him in the primaries and general election.
