New York Gov. Cuomo’s ever-escalating pro-abortion campaign
National Right to Life ^ | July 12, 2018 | Dave Andrusko

Posted on 07/13/2018 10:34:26 AM PDT by Morgana

Yesterday we posted about uber-ambitious New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who is furiously trying to out-promise a fellow pro-abortion Democrat running for governor in his commitment to extending , amplifying, and expanding abortion.

Cuomo holds a press conference Monday warning state Senate Republicans to immediately reconvene to pass the “Reproductive Health Act” which is even more radical than Roe. If not, he threatened, voters will send Senate Republicans packing. (The state Assembly is safely in the hands of pro-abortion Democrats.)

Tuesday gubernatorial rival Cynthia Nixon does Cuomo one better at her rally. Waving a coat hanger (these people are nothing if not original), Nixon tells her supporters, “We must fight like hell in New York and across the country to preserve Roe vs. Wade so that no woman will ever feel compelled to use something like this on herself again.”

Not to be outdone, on Wednesday Cuomo announces if Roe v. Wade is overturned, he’ll sue the federal government.

The North County NPR station offers this insight:

It was not immediately clear what the legal basis for a lawsuit would be. Spokesman Rich Azzopardi said only that the administration “will seek to protect the fundamental constitutional right of women under both state and federal law.”

Of course, there isn’t any “legal basis,” but facts (or truth-telling) are not Cuomo’s strong suits.

Cuomo, by the way, did say (according to Karen DeWitt) that

before legal action can begin, the state first needs to approve a measure to codify the landmark 1973 decision into state law. It was the governor’s third day of campaign-style rallies to promote the bill, known as the Reproductive Health Act.

This is another illustration of how he packages things. The Reproductive Health Act (which the GOP-led Senate has stopped) is not at all what Cuomo packages it to be. According to New York State Right to Life

Governor Cuomo’s vilifying and bait-and-switch tactics continue to escalate in pitch and tone to obscure examination of the actual provisions of the so-called “Reproductive Health Act,” which by no means is about “codifying Roe.” The Reproductive Health Act is a radical abortion-any-time-for-any-reason bill which would preclude and even repeal sensible limits on abortion, something the Governor knows Americans and New Yorkers do not support.

“Not to be outdone, on Wednesday Cuomo announces if Roe v. Wade is overturned, he’ll perform the abortions himself.”

They justify aborting 50 million human unborn babies because 500 or so women went to shady abortion butcher shops and died while murdering their unborn

Sad that a candidate, any candidate, feels no shame about running on a platform of murder. The Holocaust was terrible, and the world said ‘Never Again’, yet here we are again committing a holocaust of unprecedented brutality against unborn humans

holocaust meaning: 1. a large amount of destruction, esp. by fire or heat, or the killing of large numbers of people:

Abortion certainly fits that definition- 50 million people who will never have the chance to grow and thrive because their parents were too selfish and greedy to let them live-

He’s all for killing babies but conservatives aren’t welcomed in NY.

As long as there is even one Republican doctor in New York State, no woman named Cuomo will ever have trouble getting an abortion.

So...

If the SCOTUS overturns Roe v Wade he is going to sue...

Who, and in what court?

In 2014, Cuomo lost the Catholic vote by 9 points and he won the Protestant vote by 8 points.

Hilarious indeed, but not the way you think it is.

Maybe they figured out there’s nothing Catholic about the guy!

So it removes one objection

Guess that outweighed the other point that he has no respect for human life?!

Only they know for sure

Abortion Worshipper Cuomo has a Master Plan: everybody knows to burnish one's bona fides
to get into higher office, you have to feed the "snarling choice crowds" more and more red meat.

Ambitious Cuomo's plan will escalate as we get closer to 2020:

<><> Cuomo will demand medical reports and checkoffs for newborns w/ diseases,

<><>toddlers who have bow legs,

<><>3-4 year olds who won't put away their toys,

<><> the ones who won't toilet-train ,

<><>Cuomo will troll kindergartens for kids who don't color in the lines.

All of these unwanted kids are marked for post-birth abortions.

Gov Cuomo is described by insiders as “obsessed with fear’’ in the wake of corruption charges against ousted Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver..... already known for a confrontational style, some say Cuomo is suffering from “Post-Silver Stress Disorder” ......Known as a bully, “Cuomo appears to be engaged in a sort of overcorrection," a prominent Big Apple Democrat said. “Cuomo’s a typical control freak. Once things start to go awry and he loses control, he panics, overreacts and makes mistakes."

One report confirmed what has long been recognized — that Cuomo’s Empire State Development Corp.---a govt agency---offers few details to the public to justify its billions of dollars in grants.....(such as where's the money?)

=================================

Cuomo is on the loser fast-track....his tenure as HUD Secy is infamous for his loony policies that precipitated the subprime meltdown.

DONT PUT THIS ON YOUR RESUME ANDY: Cuomo was Bill Clinton's appointee to head HUD---a federal agency known for rank corruption.

In 2008, the Village Voice published a compelling report detailing Andrew Cuomo's policy decisions "that gave birth to the country's current crisis."

The report touched on how Cuomo's 187-page rules "opened the door to abuse." The rules explicitly rejected the idea of imposing any new reporting requirements on the GSEs. In other words, HUD wanted Fannie and Freddie to buy risky loans, but the department didn't want to hear just how risky they were.

Cuomo got lucky-- New York voters were distracted by his gubernatorial opponent's racist jokes; and failed to see the actual harm to the minority community directly caused by Cuomo's policies..

Cuomo's top aide said, "We believe that there are a lot of loans to black Americans that could be safely purchased by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac if these companies were more flexible."

NOT TO MENTION MASSIVE BAILOUTS W/ OUR TAX DOLLARS Andrew Cuomo doubled down and had this to say about his HUD standards, "GSE presence in the subprime market could be of significant benefit to lower-income families, minorities, and families living in underserved areas."

How's that working out for the minority community, where foreclosures and unemployment rates have hit the hardest as a result of such failed policies and blatant social engineering?

All these Cuomos are a disgrace to the Catholic Church and to the Diocese of Brooklyn. I went to an exclusive Catholic convent school with their mother, Tillie. I am sure she taught them better. May God have mercy on all their dark, demented souls!

I think there actually could be a compromise on the abortion issue. One that both sides could, perhaps reluctantly, live with.

Let’s start here;


All abortions should be illegal, with one exception.
It is that exception that is the compromise that would allow both sides to live within the law.

Free abortions should be provided to any woman who, in the last General Election for President, was a registered Democrat.

He’s just like the Nazis when they cleaned out their orphanages in the late 1920’s through their eugenics plan. “lives devoid of value”, they called them. It started with the severely handicapped, Then the mentally slow kids. Later, it was kids who wet the bed or had big ears. This is how they were building their “master race”. Thousandsof children starved to death. Then that method was too slow...they started gassing them ... Cuomo would fit right in with this bunch. Read Wertham’s book...” Geraniums In The Window”, and Christopher Isherwood’s “Berlin Diary” for references.

New York State like many states need to be broken up. It is pretty “red” overall like most states. The liberal control comes from power centers of “urban” areas. Stupid urban populations usually push the liberals into governorship, state houses and congress.
