Cuomo admits it

Gov. Cuomo finally admits gun control cost him politically:

“… Cuomo focused largely on Sanders’ 2005 vote in favor of the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, which first extended the immunity to firearms manufacturers. Lehrer asked Cuomo if it was acceptable for Sanders to support the bill … Cuomo said it wasn’t, pointing to his own popularity dip … “Not when Bernie Sanders looks at the camera and says this is about doing what’s right and doing what’s tough, even if it’s not politically popular at the polls, blah blah blah,” Cuomo said. “I know the politics of this. I represent New York state. Upstate New York and Vermont and rural communities, I know the political price because I’ve paid it, Brian.” …”

The price being ending his presidential aspirations, not to mention bad karma in the form of Preet Bharara.

  1. The Nazis were national socialists, emphasis on socialist. The pattern is the same. They identify a “boogey man” who is the root of the probem, and needs to become fair game. My grandparents were the boogey men some 70 years ago in Europe, and now its us. Our “gun culture” defines us as much as their culture defined them, and most of us cannot ever be something else (like a metrosexual from “sex in the city” – nahh, doesnt work for me -LOL). With all their compassion, they either miss that or they dont care. Cuomo said “there is no place for us” in HIS state. Shades of Der Fuhrer. However, if they ever come for us, it might be much more “rock & roll” than it was for my grand parents.
