Governor Andrew Cuomo of New York has already proven himself to be one of the most pro-abortion politicians in the country. He’s repeatedly pushed a bill that would make the state that has some of the highest abortion rates in the nation further down the road of unlimited abortions.
Now, Cuomo has said that pro-life people have no business living in the state. If the governor has any interest in pursuing national office with a potential Democratic presidential campaign, he’s definitely lost the majority of the country that appreciates the right to life of unborn babies.
But maybe Cuomo is doing the rest of the nation a favor. If he alienates enough pro-lifers, who move elsewhere, the state will continue to see its influence wane — as it further loses more Congressional seats to southern and western states as conservative New Yorkers look for more welcoming places to live.
Governor Cuomo is issuing a warning to what he refers to as the more conservative arm of the Republican party youre not welcome in the state of New York.
Moderate Republicans, or those most willing to capitulate to Cuomos own extreme agenda, still have the welcome mat rolled out.
Heres Cuomo during a Friday morning conversation on the Capitol Pressroom (H/t Times Union):
You have a schism within the Republican Party. Theyre searching to define their soul, thats whats going on. Is the Republican party in this state a moderate party or is it an extreme conservative party? Thats what theyre trying to figure out. Its a mirror of whats going on in Washington. The gridlock in Washington is less about Democrats and Republicans. Its more about extreme Republicans versus moderate Republicans.
Youre seeing that play out in New York. The Republican Party candidates are running against the SAFE Act it was voted for by moderate Republicans who run the Senate! Their problem is not me and the Democrats; their problem is themselves. Who are they? Are they these extreme conservatives who are right-to-life, pro-assault-weapon, anti-gay? Is that who they are? Because if thats who they are and theyre the extreme conservatives, they have no place in the state of New York, because thats not who New Yorkers are.
If theyre moderate Republicans like in the Senate right now, who control the Senate moderate Republicans have a place in their state. George Pataki was governor of this state as a moderate Republican; but not what youre hearing from them on the far right.
Cuomo has made a career of referring to anyone that opposes his agenda as extreme while simultaneously referring to that agenda as common sense.
Cuomo is the ultimate piece of crap..so he wants all Conservatives out of New York, fine, let’s see how long the freebies last in NY before everyone turns on each other
I have no idea how anyone can love abortion as much as Cuomo does, he’s the male version of Wendy Davis, he’d abort 2 year olds if the law would allow it
If he did, it would be a joke.
I guess it’s the NY Chamber of commerce or a group of corporations.
They know Cuomo looks more like the enemy incarnate than does Carville.
He is destroying NY, and he has a lot of company.
Is there any hope for NY at all??
Conservative governors should counteract his ad with ...Pro Life NY’ers we welcome you and/or we will help in the fight against LIFE. It will show the punk kid he’s a political mess.
Not while the liberal media is in the tank for him. Gag them and the low info voters might start educating themselves.
The sin of pride is strong with Cuomo.....he seems to think no one, least of all God, is above him. His words show just how rotten and disfigured his soul is.
Like father, like son. What bothers me most is the silence of his bishops, especially Dolan. Dolan's "style" is the typical old Irish slap on the back, finger waving admonishment with a wink and a nod. Cuomo's statement NEEDS to be addressed and pronto. It is timed to coincide with the March for Life and follows on the heels of the DeBlasio's installation of NYC - the most pro death mayor in the US. Cardinal Dolan! This is happening on YOUR watch!
Maybe western NY can secede from the state and separate itself from the control of Sodom on the Hudson? Western NY doesn’t need NYC or Albany to survive. They would be better off detached.
Judging by the numbers, best bet would be for the 5 boroughs and LI to secede.
ditto
Pray for New York State.
That ugly POS.
New York: the abortion capital. That is nothing to be proud of...
So what’s next? Cuomo’s Nuremburg laws - to “purify” New York and make it Conservative-rein?
What will he do with the Conservative Party, the Anglo-American church and the Reformed Episcopal church, as well as the Catholic church? Will the Catholic archbishop be asked to relocate?
So far I have heard two Cuomos speak in public. They are both disgusting pieces of filth. The acorn is worse than the tree.
Wow. His conscience must be really convicting him. If abortions, homosexuality, socialism, etc. are so “wonderful”, why does he feel the need to ban people who disagree with him on these issues?
Thank you! What is wrong with NY?!?
Andrew Cuomo’s Catholic, Italian-born grandparents must be turning over in their graves at the anti-God lunacy that has infected their descendent.
Mario Cuomo’s parents:
Andrea Cuomo, was from Nocera Inferiore, Italy, and his mother, Immaculata (née Giordano), was from Tramonti.
Cuomo is not a racist. He’s a Progressive that believes in eugenics. It’s a cornerstone of the movement. Racism I can stand. It’s eugenics that threaten all of us, adults, children and the unborn. Learn the terms and the origins.
