| 2. I just read an op-ed that argued "allowing" was the wrong word for gay rights.. |

| 3. Trouble is, no one knows how this will go because the GOPalways kept the question off the table. |
|
So, no voting members have ever expressed their opinion on this hot issue.
No one knows what will happen.
I no longer live in NY but I think this is coming up in Connecticut, too.
I got a call from the National Organization for Marriage yesterday, which is pretty funny, considering I'm divorced!
Their robocall claimed there's a pending vote on this.
I think both states have better chances of passing than most other states, but, I don't know if it will be enough.

| 5. Most people around here are not pleased with him |
|
I'm sorry to say....
I had high hopes when he first came on, but when he spent a ton of money to have his office redecorated, while instituting a ton of taxes on consumers because of our budget problems and cutting health care even further, again hitting those who can least afford it--that left a bad impression.
