Too Busy Complaining About Texas To Take Care of Business Back Home

New York State voters just voted down
          Same-day Voter Registration
        leaving New York less progressive than
          nineteen other states in our fair nation * 

        Universal Vote-by-Mail was also nixed
          putting New York in a real pickle of a fix
        Alas, now her ballot-box rules are not as up-to-date
          as woke states like California, numbering eight **

        Of course, no one dares say a peep about
          the performance of P.C. Governor Kathy Hochul ***
        She seems not to have taken the pulse
          of her state's deplorable local yokels

Hello Gershon ... it seems the world over governments are trying to keep the power they enforced during covid but the people are resisting. People want their freedom - thanks Gershon - Lindsay

As they say about America now: 'Government of the People, Government by the People, but never again Government for the People' -- now it's Government for four people, maybe 5. :) gw

Gershon, Maybe the country has had enough of this progress movement and there staring to see the light, for the good of the county let's hope so. Blessings ~ Debbie

I think that 'regular people' have had enough; I'm concerned thought that too many people get 'infected' with 'blither-blather' about communism's 'virtues' when they spend time on college campuses these days. I'd give them a one-month vacation in Venezuela (or San Francisco, lol). That'll cure 'em. Cheers, Gershon

Interesting that we have not heard one peep about Trump's NY taxes - or other law suits - since Cuomo got the boot . . . . . .

As well, Rico, if I never hear one word about Donald Trump the rest of my life, I'll be just fine with that... Feel the same way about Hilary Clinton too... :)

Gershon, I remember watching the Jackie Gleason "Reggie Van Gleason III as he tossed a paper airplane out the window and later in the segment would open the window and ....the paper airplane would come back.......not sure what that means but it just popped into my head

I shall quote the immortal Red Skelton as 'Clem Kadiddle-Hopper' to clear this one up: 'I just do 'em; I don't explain 'em.' lol. ~ And away we go! :) gw

For sure, Texas is better than either NY or Illinois where I live. The governor here is arrogant and insufferable to the max. Thanks for all of your encouragement, gw
