"Occupy's OT tab is $91,000," June 26, should have read "Cuomo's OT tab is $91,000." It was Gov. Andrew Cuomo who stuck his nose into an affair that was lawful and peaceful.
Superseding the local authorities by ordering a curfew and State Police to enter Lafayette Park was unnecessary and provocative — and costly as the article points out.
With all due respect for the governor's competence in running a difficult government, he has a vain and authoritarian streak that we should hope he outgrows.
