1. Hahaha!
I only laugh because one of the very first people I ever argued politics with inside the InterTubes was someone who worked for Pataki! Joy! I need to send him this link!

Good times:)

2. Basically, He Represents a Corrupted Economic System over The People
Edited on Fri Apr-16-10 06:21 PM by fascisthunter
his priorities are clear. The economic system we have here in the US is becoming more and more fascist... so much so, the SUpreme Court has ruled in favor of corporate personhood... pure fiction.

3. What an Idiot.
Edited on Fri Apr-16-10 07:26 PM by dotymed
Our government is owned by the corporations. There are a handful of politicians (all progressive) that care about the rights of the people, at all. Just because Pataki and his "Lord of the Flies" bunch doesn't like the re-regulation of govt., they want to get rid of the "Marshall." Who in the hell is going to fill the void? The same profit-mongering NGO's that were taking over during the DEregulation. Greedy Bastards. We want our country back and strong regulations to insure that America is never in this hostage situation again. We have laws against sedition. They're like a bunch of greedy delinquents, "we'll do it our way." Fuck you. You lost. You have to play by these rules now. Obama hasn't RE regulated near as quick as he should have. Use the laws like treason and usury to keep these bastards in line while we RE regulate corporations. Ya know, like it used to be when there were good jobs and people owned homes. The other 95%...

5. Asshole governor wants to talk substance as long as
he is controlling the conversation. What is the ass trying to hide concerning trial in New York, he is involved in the cover up..

6. Great interview Sir Thom.
Talking to that guy must have felt a bit like walking in a land mine. The governor carries a pompous tone suggesting he thinks himself too clever. Reminded me of the policy mule Tom Cruise played in Lions for Lambs, a Redford film I'd bet you've likely seen.

As always, thanx so much for the way you fight the good fight.

8. Very interesting. Pataki didn't expect to find a talk show host who knew his stuff: "you really
did your research" or words to that effect.  Pataki is
just one more Repub spewing BS.  Great intv.
