At around the 3 minute mark he says him and his staff are gonna jump to action on Tuesday August 29.

Ummm...yeah ok - August 29 is a Friday this year...I think he meant Tuesday July 29...

Regarding the rest of his alarm call about the economy...

Ummm...did this just sneak up on the world's third largest economy?

Really - ??

Again - our politicians have really no clue what time it is...

Really.

They do not.

Is he cross-eyed? Is he going to do the same as "Arnold" here in California and reduce the middle class income but maintain the upper executive's?

LOL, he just said that "everytime New Yorkers go pump gas, you are learning how to do more with less..."
I'd rather be the killer than the victim.

I saw his speech on the Buffalo news the other day, I did not realize the impact all the bank financial mess is having on New York state revenues, as so many of their head offices are in New York but its many billions, I think the govnernor said an estimated impact of $27 billion, less income taxes coming the way of the state government in Albany. And, due to losses a shadow into the future of tax write offs to come for several years even when the banks regain profitability.

I guess the only solace is that New York is such a rich place, but even it is having to struggle now, like a rust belt state.
