RIP. The Times story makes Carey sound pretty good. New York and other states need governors who can cut spending.

He was the last Democrat I voted for. He was a good governor and a better person. RIP “Portus.”

Alex Jones mentioned this. He noted how strange it was no cause of death mentioned.

Don’t believe everything you read- especially in the Times. Carey was a total load, a product of the old Democrat machine in New York. He was pro-life until he needed to be pro-abortion to run as a Dem. When his terms were over he miraculously found Jesus again and became pro-life.

“...under Mayor John V. Lindsay, a Republican turned Democrat...”

Now, that’s wrong, isn’t it? I was sure he BECAME a Republican - one of our beloved RINO’s. Blech!

May Hugh Carey rest in peace.
He was a wonderful husband and father, a great friend, and all around good guy. And a fine Governor.
He was an outsider, running against the NY political machine. His policies of fiscal restraint & responsibility seem visionary by today’s standards.

“Hugh Carey, Who Led Fiscal Rescue of New York City, Is Dead at 92”

That NY Times headline is pure bull spit. Hugh Carey did beans for NY.
