Most of you who will read this introduction already know of me from Twitter or one of the many blogs and forums I post to over the web.
I stand for standing up for the employees of the State of New York, government employees in general, and I do not have patience for the double talk and lies of the political and corporate classes, and have little respect for teabaggers and those in the middle and lower classes that would shoot themselves in the foot by supporting idiotic things like tax cuts for businesses and the wealthy and "trickle down" economics.
I'm a die hard Democrat. I'm a liberal to the core. I also feel that the majority of the politicians in our party have forgotten who they represent and are inching closer and closer to becoming Republicans, and I believe it's time to give them a wake-up call or find a new party.
I am completely anti-Andrew Cuomo. The man is no Democrat. He panders for votes, and while he claims he does the "will" of the people, I think he's full of shit. The will of the people overwhelmingly said extend the millionaires tax. He didn't. The "will of the people" is something he only pays lip service to when it fits his political ideology. The sooner we can vote this menace out and replace him with a real Democrat, the better off our state will be.
That's enough about me. Please post and tell our members a little about yourselves. We'd like to get to know prospective members before granting them membership.
Thanks for reading, and welcome.
