Isn't Cuomo the one who started the saying, Vote for Cuomo not the homo?

Kind of like Obama telling people to save their money and not vacation in Las Vegas while he and Michelle take 6-7 summer vacations and a perviously unheard of number of private concerts at the WH all at a tremendous cost to taxpayers? That kind of hypocrisy?

This wouldn't be as big an issue if social conservatives weren't always playing politics with moral issues.
yep, so did JC Watts when he was a very young man, so what is your point? People make mistakes.

Do those 'mistakes' include sending out e-mails which had pictures and videos of women involved with horses?? Images of some Africans running from a plane with a caption Run N****** (not bleeped out) Run. Photoshopped images of Barack and Michelle in some 1970's stereotypical black pimp & prostitute outfits, or videos entitled Obama's inauguration that have African tribal dances in them??

Strongly against same sex marriage, the mosque and pro-life, yet not socially conservative?? Interesting....


Not to mention Paladino made his $$$ off the backs of the NY state taxpayers, with government contracts and things of that nature.

What does that mean?

The Gov't needed work done. Put out bids and he won the award. Did he do what the contract call for?

By your statement the police and firemen make money on the backs of NY taxpayers.

Seems a little ridiculous to me.

Some of these contracts and the perks associated with them is part of the reason NY is in the fiscal mess it is in. I somehow doubt the guy who got rich off this stuff is going to be the one to clean it up.

Wow! Another thread about a Conservative who is less than perfect. Why do Liberals think this proves their ideology?
