As a native new Yorker, I could not agree more.

It's a common theme in all political discussions: Kick NYC out of the state. (and that's just a start).

RE: Kick NYC out of the state.

Actually as a Long Islander, we already have a budding secession from NY State movement.

The 51st State (Or as Obama might see, it -- the 58th) :

As an upstate New Yorker, I must concur. No matter how much we bitch, no matter how many non-liberals (I can’t really say conservatives) we elect to the legislature, no matter how much debt is accumulated, we can’t overpower New York City. It is a lost cause.

Does Andrew Cuomo tell drug addicts, rapists, muggers and thieves they're not welcome?

Or is Cuomo's hatred reserved for honest citizens who own guns or citizens who are Catholics, Orthodox Jews, and Evangelical Christians?

Then again it's hard to understand the minds of haters like Andrew Cuomo...

It makes no sense that he prefers criminals to traditional Americans - does it? Is CCuomo a monster?
