Moron Air ScamericaThe Gloria Wise Boys & Girls Club turns out to have been
quite an operation:
Managers of the Gloria Wise Boys & Girls Club in The Bronx looted the charity and used $1.2 million in taxpayer money for luxury cars, home renovations and start-up cash for lefty radio network Air America, a two-year investigation has found.
The club's former director, Charles Rosen, tapped Gloria Wise for $21,000 to pay for renovations and furnishings for his beachfront apartment in the Rockaways. He made it appear that $3,200 of it was used to pay a contractor for a "gang-prevention workshop," the report said.
Rosen also billed Gloria Wise for $6,178 worth of bathroom fixtures for the apartment. He earned $249,000 as the club's director and owns a home in Co-op City.
And he turned to Gloria Wise's coffers when he bought a new Volvo convertible in 2002, writing a $34,500 check from the club's accounts.Is it any wonder that without good folks like these bankrolling Air America that it's about to go belly up, probably immediately after the election?
