Is Bertha Lewis a plagierist?

Hm...vehement denunciations of someone named Goldstein, blaming him for all the suffering of the oppressed masses, whipping the faithful into a frenzy of hatred... I don't know - it all seems strangely...familiar.

So the last holdout in the Atlantic Yards eminent domain fiasco has agreed to move. I don't know what his legal costs have been over the past three years, but if you discount those, he made out like a burglar at $3M. Bertha Lewis, CEO of the New! Improved! ACORN, is...rather less than pleased, it seems.
Well, the housing at Atlantic Yards will be built, and the day after he moves out, which I hope will be sooner rather than later, the building that he squatted in these past years should be razed to ground immediately, and salt poured into the soil, so that never again can the likes of one of the biggest shakedown artists in Brooklyn return. We will still be here, we will still be fighting for the all the people that Danny spurned and used for his own enrichment. We hope that now everyone in Brooklyn and New York can see him for what he really is and can see what his actions cost Brooklyn. I hope whatever he settled for was worth the pain and misery he caused to so many people who just wanted a decent place to live in Brooklyn and who just wanted a decent job and a place for their family.
And now comes the next phase in the train wreck, if this latest gigantic "taking" goes the way of Pfizer and Kelo...
