ROSCOE CONWAY: Speaking as someone who lives in a property tax cap state – stupid f'n idea. If school taxes are too high, throw out your school board. Oh, well, in the words of Ron Swanson, “The public is stupid. I hate the public.” Cuomo Plans to Push for a Cap on Property Taxes www.nytimes.com
GATEMOUTH: Maybe we can get Jerry Brown to call him and explain (as I recall, Andrew had Steve Richman run Jerry’s Stop-Clinton rally at Brooklyn Borough Hall during the 1992 primary, so he owes the Cuomos a favor).
If Antoine Thompson was any stupider, you could milk him.
But then, at least he’d be contributing something useful to society.
In this article, we learn he managed to lose the most Democratic Senate District in the State (outside NYC) while leaving a whopping $120 grand in the bank!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I dunno which was worse, the fact he didn't spend his own money, or that fact he diverted funds from Craig Johnson and others instead.

Given the attached article linked concerns the NYS Senate Democrats, this may be the stupidest (or at least most naive) f’n title of the year. the albany project:: The Creeping Danger of Losing the Mantle of Reform 209.98.77.34
HYDROFRACKING: According to Wikipedia, "A hydraulic fracture is formed by pumping the fracturing fluid into the wellbore at a rate sufficient to increase the pressure downhole to a value in excess of the fracture gradient of the formation rock. The pressure causes the formation to crack, allowing the fracturing fluid to enter and ext…end the crack farther into the formation. To keep this fracture open after the injection stops, a solid proppant, commonly a sieved round sand, is added to the fracture fluid. The propped hydraulic fracture then becomes a high permeability conduit through which the formation fluids can flow to the well."

I was so wrong about him; he must be a good guy after all.
I await the video of Himmler singing "Is You Is Or Is You Ain't My baby"
I further note that Nixon also played the piano. Singing PM: 'Fats' Putin over the top of 'Blueberry Hill' with piano solo www.youtube.com
While I don't agree with each and every word, and I shudder at the thought that continued settlement activity will foreclose the possibility of the Palestinian authority ever having another opportunity to miss, Dershowitz largely gets it right.

From "Of Kings and Queens" by Manny Fernandez:
"In between was an unheralded stretch of the invisible, zigzagging, occasionally awkward and often-disputed 21-mile border demarcating New York City’s two largest boroughs."
In the print edition, the next line is "-the only two of New York City's five boroughs that are connected to each other by land"
Apparently, someone has since informed America's paper of record of the existence of Marble Hill.
