When the Liberals who speak for both NYC and NY State espouse values antithetical to those Conservatives prize, what is there to apologize for?
If NY Conservatives are offended, the offense they need to take is with those who espouse those values as if they speak for all New Yorkers instead of berating the Conservative who pointed that out.
Right on. I fell sorry for New Yorkers who allow themselves to be used as “victims” because someone does not agree with their values. They are not victims. They are who they are.
Let Ted stand on his values. He did not ask them to apologize for their values. He only disagreed. Let New Yorkers do the same. Somewhere between the two, we will find the truth.
