Back Door George doesn't give a shit about the five boroughs or about collective bargaining, blows a lot of hot air while considering move to Iowa...
Lame Duck Bitch Ass Tall Bag of Shit outgoing Governor "Back Door George" (courtesy of Full Boat) Pataki seems to think the best way to honor a tenuously negotiatied solution to bitter labor struggle is to, well, veto it. Yeah, veto it. Proving once again he just doesn't give a shit about us here in the city and would much rather be working on his consevative record for Iowa. For all of his talk about the importance of negotiation, it seems Back Door George only means that important "when it suits him addenda". Or, better, as Knucklehead's Dad put it, the ole Repuublican standy of "I've got mine, so fuck you." Maybe we could arrange for Pataki's driver to go on strike, too.

Pataki is so awful that even the conservative NY Post has been trashing him for the last year.
Rudy Giuliani was right about him all along. This Governor is a big Gornisht. Koch, who endorsed him last election, has already coronated Spitzer. He has publicly had enough as well.
It is past time for him to go, and if he thinks he is a challenge to Rudy on the presedential level for the Republican nomination, he should realize that even liberals who hate Rudy are clutching their stomachs in hysterics at the idea that he will be the one to stop him.
David,
What kills me about Pataki is watching him veer all over the spectrum as he comes to decide one aspiration over the other. When he wants to be re-elected Governor of New York, he revolutionizes health care here, creating all sorts of important stop gap measures. But when it's time for his swan song and wants to kick it up a level, he guts the programs HE INITIATED. I won't miss him, and yeah, if it G-d forbid came down to Pataki or Rudy, it's Rudy in a walk.
