New York state’s “inartful dodger”. Paid-With-American-Dollars MSM Still Providing Cover for Cuomo’s “America Was Never That Great” Smear Judi McLeod image By Judi McLeod —— Bio and Archives--August 19, 2018 Cover Story | 0 Comments | Print Friendly | Subscribe | Email Us New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, now hopelessly trying to walk back his smear that America “was never that great”, uses the wrong word to describe his hateful smear. “After being widely criticized, Cuomo called his remarks ‘inartful’ and said America is and always has been great.” Cuomo is above all, a most despicable ingrate.

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — Gov. Andrew Cuomo, running for a third term and a potential candidate for president in 2020, acknowledged Friday that he was “inartful” when he said this week that America “was never that great.”The Democrat went on to expound on something that few elected officials ever need to spell out.“I want to be very clear: Of course America is great and of course America has always been great,” Cuomo said on a teleconference with reporters.Cuomo’s appraisal of the nation was somewhat different Wednesday when, speaking at a Manhattan bill signing, he critiqued Republican President Donald Trump and...

ABC News' Teddy Davis and Alexa Ainsworth Report: With the Supreme Court poised to rule on Washington, D.C.'s, gun ban, the Obama campaign is disavowing what it calls an "inartful" statement to the Chicago Tribune last year in which an unnamed aide characterized Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., as believing that the DC ban was constitutional. "That statement was obviously an inartful attempt to explain the Senator's consistent position," Obama spokesman Bill Burton tells ABC News.
