Spitzer said the state made a disastrous decision several decades ago to move its SUNY campuses out of downtown centers. "Simply a disaster for our long-term growth," he said. "We will try to reverse it. It's not the sort of thing where you can wave a wand over that enormous infrastructure we have built and move it back. But we are dedicated to moving our SUNY campuses back into downtowns, where we can do things that are dramatic." SUNY campuses all over the state are and have been investing in improvements and upgrades spending Millions, now this idiot wants to move campuses back into urban areas. How much would this cost the over taxed people of NY? If you want to see enrollment drop move the campuses to downtown Buffalo, Syracuse, Albany, etc. Make it easier for the scum bags to get at your kids, and sell the drugs, rape, rob, and kill them. Just think a SUNY campus on the south side of Syracuse were there is a stabbing everyday. Eliot wouldn't want to stop the wasteful spending and lower taxes in NY to bring back business. Nope, Eliot the jackass idiot would rather spend and spend on his strategic projects that won't make a friggen difference when there is no-one left in this state. He says the plan will focus on strategic investments the state can make in each city, with an emphasis on projects that will have immediate impacts on urban areas. The urban areas that most have moved out of because of the crime, and "new age urban dwellers".  |

Now Eliot wants to let immigrants without social security numbers get drivers licenses. If a life long citizen of NY walks into the DMV without a SS# and every other form of ID they can dig up they are refused any transactions. Prime example of Spitzer and his Nazi Attitude. He does what he wants when he wants and the hell with what anyone else thinks. He sold the people of NY a bag of garbage with all his promises before the elections. NY politics sucked before and I didn't think they could get any worse until now. |

Oh... you wait until he (Spitz) wants to borrow from the State retirement pension like Cuomo did. Think we're getting taxed now....wait a few years. NY will become the first communist state in the union.

Spitzer is a huge let down. He is more of a wolf in sheep's clothing. And Trooper-gate shows how low he will go not to mention how corrupt he really is.

The tab for Joe Bruno's state helicopter flights this year: $72,000. The $1.5 million public tab for the Troopergate investigation: Priceless. And the costs are still mounting - Spitzer's office now plans to spend $400,000 for an outside lawyer, Dietrich Snell, to fight subpoenas from GOP state senators. The best part is the controversy won't die until Spitzer answers questions under oath on what he knew or didn't know about the anti-Bruno scheme. Which he refuses to do. Wonder why? Attorney General Andrew Cuomo's July 23 report found the Spitzer administration misused the state police, while Bruno broke no laws because his trips included government business. |

Well too bad you voted for Sipitz. Religion has no place in NYS gov't, but we're all doomed when Spitz makes NY the first communist stae. What you do think of him giving ILLEGAL ALIENS A DRIVERS LISCENSE in NY. Can't wait for your reply. It ought to be good. I'm all ears...

You are with the 70+ %(more like 90%) who Eliot the Idiot has chosen to ignore.
How about his support of the child care bill that was vetoed?
He supports one bill and then he yanked grants totaling more than $740,000 for projects in lawmakers' districts including a walkway for a senior center, volunteer fire companies, food pantries, and schools as well as a free clinic in his own Schenectady County district.
The funding was cut because of Assembly Republican leader James Tedisco's criticism of Spitzer's plan to make it easier for illegal immigrants to receive drivers' licenses.
Even some of the governor’s biggest fans have been grumbling privately that he has gratuitously gone out of his way to invite retaliation from people he doesn’t like. ;D
Do you even have a clue as to what kind of egomaniac you voted for?

Well, this is the first of 4 years with 3 to go. I also like how our new AG Cuomo turned a blind eye to the State Police scandal. Personally I think that cuomo is just doing what Spitzer is telling him to do. New Yorkers are finished. Just wait for the tax increases----they're coming!

Personally I think that cuomo is just doing what Spitzer is telling him to do. New Yorkers are finished. Just wait for the tax increases----they're coming! I agree. We have some darker days ahead. Spitzer stands firmly behind his giving illegals a driver's license. His Trooper Gate shows his personal corruption. He does not favor Upstate NY and is a Downstate loving demagogue. NYC is a big drain on the rest of the state. Here's an idea. Maybe we should demand NYC become it's own state or district, not sucking our taxes. |

Oh I'm sure it will get much worse as Spitz "steamrolls" along. He'll raise taxes during his term and when more businesses flee thex next governor will bear the brunt.

NY politics at it's worst. Again, he ignored the the whole Alan Hevesi scandal (who still being watched by Feds), then, when Hevesi resigns Tom DiNapoli (a politican) gets the Comptrollers job and the list of qualified candidates get circular filed. Spitz stays all hash hush.
Maybe I read your post wrong but that's not a goverernor I'd like to see run for a second term.

There are a few. Dave Valeski is a breath of fresh air, I personally know Jim Tedisco, who is also an honest man. I like Mike Bragman too but he no longer works in state politics. I'd say that's pretty fair and balanced since I named both democrat and republican.

G.R.
You read the post correctly. I wouldn't want The Spitz to run a second term. I wish he wasn't running the first term. Already he has disappointed many of us.
Let me restate my post about Spitzer running for a second term.
"Spitzer, don't even THINK about it.

What really gets me is that this time last year he was running non-stop, feel good ads claiming how he was going to change everything in Albany and shake things up. When all he really did was help out his fellows and completly do a 180 on the people who voted him in.
I don't ever think we'll see a change. For the money they get paid plus the preks they qualify for (far greater than what other states in the Union offer) They'll never make concessions. Just wow us with promises and fail to commit when elected into office.
BTW...have you seen our Lt. Governor? Quite an interesting fellow.

Well, he's from NYC (go figure) and he backs the new drivers' liscenses' for ILLEGAL ALIENS.
But he backs the governors statement that it will make all of our insurance rates go down. I called GEICO (my auto and motorcycle insurance carrier) to ask how much my rates were going to decrease when the new new plan takes effect. The Rep told me it won't make any difference (go figure) wether illegals have a "valid liscense" or not. Bottom line--- they're ILLEGAL. But I guess it takes a governor to figure that one out! Way to go Elliot! What else you got for us "dumb" upstaters? Lay it on me.

The governor is right. It is good public policy to have information about these illegal immigrants. Who they are, where they live. Its like being registered. One of the biggest concerns about illegals is that we dont know who or where they are. They are presently in the cash economy and generally untraceable. Bank of America and a number of other banks have announced they will give banking services to illegals including mortgages. How are you going to round up and throw out 12 million people who are intertwined in the local economy? There is only one alternative, register them and let them stay. Most of us are children of immigrants from long ago. Our ancestors came here for a better life. So did they.

Most of us are children of immigrants from long ago. Our ancestors came here for a better life. So did they. How to get rid of them? Open season. No I'm not serious. If they want to be citizens they need to go through the normal proceedure regular immigrants do. If not, they break the law. What does that tell them when they get away with it? No way Jose. Over population in the US is a problem that doesnt get talked about. Do we really need 12 million more in NYS? The number seems high. You must mean in the entire country. 12 million more to collect welfare and make crime rise because they don't work. The problem with illegal immigration is theres nothing to prevent these people from wanting to come here. I bet they think the worst is that they will get shipped back. Why doesn't Spitzer talk about that? We got a problem with people crossing the border. Giving them licenses for free doesn't solve nothing. Another 10 years will have to do it again. |

Espero verdad que pensaras esto encima bien. Illegals que tiene liscense de un conductor válido de NYS significa que los offcials tendrán que cambiar las muestras de camino al español, de modo que los illegals puedan entender mejor nuestras reglas de tráfico. Los illegals serán alineados seguramente en el DMV, y cuando consiguen su liscense, tendrán seguro auto también, apenas pues habrán sido defendidos para las varias enfermedades contagiosas.
Traduje este poste al español así que podemos acostumbrarnos a hablar la lengua de los illegals. Apesadumbrado si esto es realmente malo… yo no han hablado español en una absolutamente cierta hora.

Puesto que algunos locals aquí piensan que es una gran idea dar a illegals el liscense de un conductor todo el el resto de mi poste será mecanografiado en español terrible, pero usted puede todo entenderlo. ¿Significo que después de todo, cada uno uno de usted habla español, la derecha? Good!
Well, llamé el DMV en Oswego para preguntar cómo puedo conseguir ilegal a extranjero el liscense de un conductor. Ella era muy confusa. Pregunté cuándo era el traductor que iba a estar allí ayudar al ilegal con la persona de la prueba... DMV era otra vez muy confuso?
Governer Spitzer dicho esto sería una transición lisa -- qué sucedió? Guardaré congradulations de trying.
Anyway... al equipo de béisbol rojo de las medias para ganar el juego grande. ¡Debe haber sido el equipo de New York porque dan a cualquier persona que venga a su estado una licencia al gobernador Spitzer del granizo del drive!!!
Vive' Gov. Spitzer!

Hey Ghost Ryder
I saw several of your posts written in Spanish, . They sound interesting but many of us don't have a clue what they mean in English.
How's chances that you tell the rest of us, in English, what's being said?

Since a few people think it's a good idea to issue driver's licenses to illegals I decided to post all the rest of my responses in this topic in spanish. How else are we going to welcome all these new illegals if we can't speak their language?
So form now on, all of my rebuttals in this forum will be posted in spanish...which by the way is absolutly horrible (but getting better). We all gotta keep up on our spanish anyway, right?
