He has done what I think is an outstanding job. As Street spoke on the sidewalk outside the Union League, where he earlier had lunch with Timoney and addressed several hundred movers and shakers on his first year in office, Timoney came down a flight of stairs and stood next to his boss. He then turned to the mayor and asked permission to share an exchange he had with the mayor Tuesday evening after a grueling day. So I'm taking medication. Do not allow this situation to cause you to question your judgment.
Nobody bats a thousand.
You have been good for Philly and most especially good for this administration. We value your contribution and look forward to doing more good work - the Mayor. You have and always have had my admiration and respect and total loyalty. It's a great working and personal relationship, and they meet all the time. What remains somewhat unclear, particularly if the two men are as close as they say, is why Timoney came out so forcefully on Monday defending a decision that he reversed the next day.
