The great state of New York will slip even further into financial insolvency and there will be no federal bailout.

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo speaks during a cabinet meeting in the Red Room at the Capitol in Albany, N.Y., Saturday, Jan. 1, 2011. Cuomo was sworn in Friday night in a private family ceremony at the executive mansion with his father, former Gov. Mario Cuomo, at his side.

He delivered a good speech that eventually turned into a campaign speech. Much of what he has promised, has been promised by his predecessors. They couldn't deliver and I doubt he can either. Good luck! (BTW - alll staff, including poorly paid secretaries, were expected at work this morning, at 8 am! )

I wonder if Sandra Lee made one of her ::koffkoff:: "charming" Hanukkah or Kwanza Cakes for the occasion.

He has a long history of corruption, much worse than his father, who was bad enough. The guy is virtually a mobster.

to return integrity, performance and dignity to New York

You mean all that stuff was missing during your predecessor's tenure?

Hmm.

[Competition clutch]

Frank of Queens refers to him as Leather Face. Or with the NY accent: Leathah Face.

It’s like a bad horror movie rerun- those of us who remember Bob Grant’s fued with the Dad can call it “The Son of Sfachim.”

Andrew- Azendeme-tuzeproveno sfachim!

“I am honored and humbled to accept this tremendous responsibility,” Cuomo said in a statement Friday night. “The time has come to return integrity, performance and dignity to New York and make it the Empire State once again. I look forward to getting to work right away for the people of our great state.”

I see he’ll already be as big a bullsh** artist as his old man was.

I’ll never forget his old man yelling, “Excelsior!, Excelsior!” after one of his speeches when he was governor.

Andrew- Azendeme-tuzeproveno sfachim!”

Or as Bob used to say, “The regime of the sfachim”

So why is his arm fluff holding the Bible and not his daughter? What a morally bankrupt bottom feeding jerk.

The state has burgeoning budget gaps, crushing property taxes................................................ LOL, all you Islanders, and Northern tier residents, brace yourselves, you already know what the solution will be. All your bucks will be needed to support the voting base in the big apple.

Giuliani had ample opportunity to stop this thug and he pissed it away.

Thanks NYer.

Mario; Andrew's mother, Matilda; and his three daughters and girlfriend, Food Network personality Sandra Lee, were among the roughly 80 people to attend the ceremony

[ICE-FLYER]

New York and California...The two states filled with more selfish and stupid people who the democRATS love to keep stupid and selfish...their Anti-Americanism knows no bounds and they enjoy their power through intellectual and mental slavery...which will lead to full slavery tot he state eventually.

I resent the left.

[onedoug]

Piling on the sacrilege.

Maybe I’m an old fuddy duddy but that’s just not right.
