Mario Cuomo... What a douche.

Totally. I guess Cuomo has never watched a movie in which an Italian or Italian-American committed a crime?

Cuomo, 81, long refused to watch Francis Ford Coppola’s film due to his vocal opposition to stereotyping Italian-Americans as being involved in organized crime.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

How ironic. Since Cuomo is a stereotype of elitist grifting Italian American goombah sleazebag politicians.

Reminds me of when Gennifer Flowers thought Cuomo was a Mafioso.

agreed, buuttt.....

as an American of Italian descent i have no problem with the Godfather and could care less about the Soprano’s....what annoys me is the hypocrisy of it all...

politicians and others were all up in arms over the Seinfeld Puerto Rican day parade episode....gosh forbid you say something negative about the muzzie....you can’t use the name Redskins....but the Godfather is somehow accepted...

Guess the Cuomos did not want to see the power behind their power.

He’ll boycott a movie but defend to the hilt the murder of the unborn.

Wasn’t Cuomo the head of one of the largest crime syndicates (New York State Government) at one time?

liberal Jews are offended by everything...

here’s a question; what would the response be to a TV/Movie series centered on a bunch of tax cheating, scheming Jewish accountants???
