He’s definitely not the sharpest tool in the shed. Liberals need not worry. He’ll get re-elected anyway. You have to wonder who pulls the lever for these clowns.

I don’t know if the crowd was shocked.
Most of them probably lefties who agreed with him.

Cuomo's ignoran"Ideas have consequences." - Weaver

Decades of liberal/progressive efforts to censor, erase and deny the underlying ideas of liberty upon which the U. S. Constitution was framed have had consequences.

Photobucket

Our Constitution embodied a UNIQUE IDEA. Nothing like it had ever been done before. The power of the idea was in the recognition that people's rights are granted directly by the Creator - not by the state - and that the people, then, and only then, grant rights to government. The concept is so simple, yet so very fundamental and far-reaching.

CREATOR

People

Government

America's founders embraced a previously unheard-of political philosophy which held that people are "...endowed BY THEIR CREATOR with certain unalienable rights.." This was the statement of guiding principle for the new nation, and, as such, had to be translated into a concrete charter for government. The Constitution of The United States of America became that charter.

Other forms of government, past and present, rely on the state as the grantor of human rights. America's founders, however, believed that a government made up of imperfect people exercising power over other people should possess limited powers. Through their Constitution, they wished to "secure the blessings of liberty" for themselves and for posterity by limiting the powers of government. Through it, they delegated to government only those rights they wanted it to have, holding to themselves all powers not delegated by the Constitution. They even provided the means for controlling those powers they had granted to government.

This was the unique American idea. Many problems we face today result from a departure from this basic con­cept. Gradually, other "ideas" have influenced legislation which has reversed the roles and given government greater and greater power over individuals. Early generations of Americans pledged their lives to the cause of in­dividual freedom and limited government and warned, over and over again, that eternal vigilance would be required to preserve that freedom for posterity.

.... America "was never that great."

But it could be, and maybe the greatness it once had was never properly understood by any number of poorly-informed souls.

Clan Cuomo does not appear to be included with the well-informed, choosing instead to remain deliberately ignorant of all that went into the founding of the that idealistic paragon we know as "America", a nation formed by imperfect men, all striving for some kind of new approach to the world of governance that may reconciled with the Christian concept of the Golden Rule and the Old Testament exposition of the Ten Commandments.

Anything else is a return to feudalism, strongman rule, and militaristic command and control forms of social structure, with the great mass of humanity in bondage to an unyielding hierarchy.

What is stopping women from achieving her full potential?

And to the extent that government plays a role here, why didn’t Obama take care if the women’s issues while he was president, if these are such pressing matters?

The NY GOP is a joke. Cuomo or any Democrat can say whatever they want, and the GOP candidates will probably be nodding in agreement.

If this nation was so awful, I wonder why Cuomo’s grandparents came over here after 1900 when the wicked nature of the USA had long been established.

Anyone actually “shocked” by this? NYers know what they voted for.

Like father, like son.

I distinctly remember Mario Cuomo, then NYS Governor shout out that the 1950’s were NEVER as nostalgic (my word paraphrased), decent and civil as everyone is saying. Life was as bad then as it is now!!

This was in response to the popularity of tv shows like Happy Days and movies like Grease and American Graffiti.

Unfortunately that diatribe worked.

Cuomo is being honest in what he thinks. The hypocritical Commie bastard ought to move to Cuba.
