There are only 57 real Republicans in New York and I believe they are all related to ME.

BTW...I paid a visit to my very own RINO State Senator (Flanagan's his name) yesterday. His receptionist told me he was "in a very important meeting." "Fine," I said, "Have him call me this afternoon. Or, if you like, I can come back later." She said she'd tell him I stopped by.

Well...it's 30 hours later, and I still haven't heard from the worm. He's probably busy giving Joe Bruno or Geo. Pataki a hand job. So, on Monday morning at 9:00 I will go back to his office & stay there till he can find time to make ME one of his "important meetings."

I'll tell you this, though: He ain't gunna think much of my sunny morning disposition on Monday.

Regards,

You got that right, Not one freaking Republican Senator voted against this nonsense
