5. A racist anti-Italian slur like saying "Scalito"?
That is, after all, what they said it was, wasn't it?

6. If Mario Cuomo was there
instead of him we wouldn't be having these problems now. He could only wish to kiss Mario's feet.

8. Note to the NYPOST:
"Turdblossom" is a scornful sobriquet. Cuomo is someone's name.

...just sayin'.

9. A pathetic excuse for a man
he is the most craven, cowardly, sociopathic loser I can think of. Ignorant, stupid, drunken liar.

BTW, kentuck, did you take time out from listening to Hannity to read the RW Post?
