WHAT. THE. HELL.  They admit he's a scumbag and then wax poetic about how they want him to use his powers for good instead of evil.

We're so very fucked if Astorino doesn't win.  Hell, we're fucked anyways.  I wouldn't be surprised if NYSUT and a few other unions pop their heads up and endorse Baby Cuomo.

As a New Yorker, I've got to ask, what did the residents of the old Soviet Union do to have it so much better than us?

Well, that's a surprise.

I am shocked, shocked I tell you!

Defend Freedom, Defeat Andrew Cuomo

Make no mistake about it, Governor Andrew Cuomo is anti-gun and actively seeks to diminish Second Amendment rights in New York and throughout the nation.

Time and time again, pro-gun citizens in New York are confronted with a condescending disregard for their constitutional rights by political elitists like Governor Andrew Cuomo. Cuomo wanted to be first. He wanted the "toughest gun-control laws in the nation" and actively sought to massively restrict the constitutional rights of New York's citizens. The record is clear, Governor Andrew Cuomo cannot be trusted with your Second Amendment rights. For these reasons and more, Governor Andrew Cuomo has earned an "F" rating from NRA-PVF:


GOVERNOR CUOMO signed an amicus brief as Attorney General for New York that supported Washington, D.C.’s handgun ban in the landmark Heller case.

GOVERNOR CUOMO supported frivolous lawsuits against the gun industry as HUD Director.

GOVERNOR CUOMO is responsible for one of the largest gun bans in the history of New York State – the SAFE Act, passed in the middle of the night with no public input

GOVERNOR CUOMO went on public radio in January 2014 and said those who are pro assault weapon and anti SAFE Act are “extreme conservatives” and have no place in New York.

GOVERNOR CUOMO banned scores of commonly-owned hunting guns by classifying them as “assault weapons.” For example, a turkey hunting shotgun with a thumbhole stock in now officially classified as an assault weapon and banned.

GOVERNOR CUOMO created a registration scheme that is designed to do one thing, confiscate firearms. Under the semi-auto firearm registration law, guns cannot be transferred in-state, even to family members. The gun must be surrendered to the state police or sold out-of-state.

GOVERNOR CUOMO supports the building of a background check system for ammunition that will cost billions of dollars, and is currently unworkable.

GOVERNOR CUOMO's SAFE Act has driven manufacturing jobs out of New York State with several large manufacturers relocating to states like Alabama and Pennsylvania.


GOVERNOR CUOMO has even bigger designs for taking away guns if re-elected. Gun shows will be a thing of the past and those fortunate enough to have guns will be forced to keep them under lock and key.


GOVERNOR CUOMO decommissioned his own ethics panel, the Moreland Commission, when they started looking at corruption inside the Governor’s office.


GOVERNOR CUOMO supported the 7 round magazine restriction, an arbitrary law which was ultimately overturned by the Western New York District Court. The overturned ruling forced the state to revert back to the existing 10 round limitation. New York is only one of about six states that have a magazine restriction at all, and the state’s limit is one of the most restrictive magazine limits in the country. The courts agreed with Second Amendment supporters that Cuomo's unconstitutional magazine limit was arbitrary.


For more information on his pro-Second Amendment and NRA endorsed opponent, Rob Astorino, visit www.NRAPVF.org/VoteAstorino and remember to vote Rob Astorino for New York Governor on Tuesday, November 4!

Vote Freedom First on Election Day!  Remember also that the Democrats and the Republicans lead by Senator Skelos brought this forth without public commentary.

That's going to be the new buzz phrase: "You're not what New Yorkers represent"  even if you're even a moderate Republican.  Cuomo tried it, NYT repeated with Astorino.  Status-post election I suspect we'll hear it even more.  In other news, Syracuse's paper endorsed Cahill for AG.  So, Hell has partially froze over.

It just shows how different the Upstate and Downstate mentalities are. You could practically hear the sneering editor whispering "hicks" when he mentioned the Upstate anti-SAFE signs

No mention of the tyrant's new book, eh?  Ranked #18,014th and still circling the bowl!  

FUNYT!

Thank you.

Don't let the NY Times discourage you with their BS endorsement.  We must stand and fight, and in this arena that means voting for Astorino against Cuomo, and getting everybody we know to do the same.  FUAC.

Meh, my supposed Republican county exec endorsed him too.

That is why have zero use for the Republican party any longer. Look at the fat thing in NJ not support Rob. I'm done with the GOP.. Ill vote each candidate by there merits i dont care if they are republican or independent at this point.

LOL long island republican.

Hamptons wanna be....
What's that patch on his left arm?

As before: THEY  don't want any new members to their elite little club of control and deception: I really don't give a fat-flying-fuck if they're "R" or "D" they're BOTH corrupt with collusion and graft! the only (acceptable at this time)  solution is their removal from Office.  

and in other news...water is wet

And, uh... surprise?  NYT is an old white liberal screaming about the good 'ol days of the land of cotton.

FUNYT
