I want to like Golisano, because we grew up in the same neighborhood and he's probably the most famous alumnus of my high school, but I just can't. He could spend some of his well-earned cash on helping out the old 'hood but instead he wastes it on pathetic political aspirations. His latest "I'm taking my tax dollars to Florida" just stinks.

I'm not sure how much national coverage this has been getting but the levels of dysfunction in the NY State Senate at this point is unbelievable. I honestly think you could leave nursery school classes unsupervised for a month and they wouldn't resort to as childish behavior as the Senators on both sides have. At this point I will actively campaign for anyone regardless of party that runs against these guys in their next elections. I want all 62 of them voted out.

Wow.

Yeah, Espada is the scum of the Earth. Shuts down the Senate for an entire month for his own personal gain. The sooner he is in jail the better for everyone.
