Disgraced City Council President Mariano Vega steps down until he says he's "completely exonerated"

Which means Mariano Vega is taking a permanent leave of the President's office because folks, he's never going to be completely exonerated.

Here is Vega's statement:
For the betterment of the City of Jersey City, the Municipal Council and under the current circumstances, I am temporarily stepping down, effective Friday October 9, 2009 as of 4:00 p.m., as City Council President until such time as I am completely exonerated.

He remains on the city council in an at-large seat.....for now.

Funny this would happen the same day Ward B councilman Philip Kenny marched his sorry ass over to Newark to plead guilty as charged on graft charges brought earlier when Vega and half the city government were arrested. Mr. Kenny you need to go too, and fast.

Keep up those protests folks, do not stop, it's keeping the heat on and now the rats are jumping ship and or looking for a soft place to land. Don't give it to them. Johnny told you he'd be after Vega night and day until he left. We're one step closer to bring that promise true today
