Pro Bono Barrister: Grimm owed Scotto apology–but consider his service
If you’ve ever met or spent some time with R-C Congressman Michael Grimm, it’s apparent that he’s a driven, intense, youthful man whose disarming smile should never be misinterpreted as that of an easygoing guy.
A Marine and a Desert Storm combat veteran who earned battlefield promotions, the compact congressman is also skilled at verbal warfare. Observers say that his overpowering television performance three years back debating then-Democratic Rep. Michael McMahon earned him a victory in the congressional battle.
They faced off on NY1. It was a brutal, yet civil, confrontation. McMahon was tough and never backed down. Equally tough, Grimm displayed the relentless vigor of a seasoned warrior who could remain cool while fighting for his political future.
