NEARI leader Crowley to Political Scene: Gotcha!

Not every April Fool’s Day joke went quite as far and wide as Pat Crowley’s.

But the deputy director of National Education Association Rhode Island — who is as famous for his appearances in a Bush mask and “mission accomplished” flight suit as he is for his online oratory — even had us folks at Political Scene going last Tuesday when he announced on RIFuture.org that he was leaving Rhode Island to write a once-a-week blog for the New York Times.

Believable? In this era of new and emerging media, why not?

So we asked: when are you leaving your day job? How did you and the Times find each other? To whom are you donating the Bush mask? His answers:

“I’ll be donating the mask to Ed Achorn so he can have a permanent reminder of life on the left in Rhode Island!

“Happy April 1st!”
