Right, Wahoo. Amazing how all of these Politics on the Hudson spend so much time on national political issues that have little or nothing to do with the LoHud area, yet neglect stories like Pataki’s links to Wiese and involvement in dirty tricks and other not-so-nice things.

No wonder some clueless commentators here think that having Pataki in your political corner is somehow a good thing. If (when?) the story finally breaks and implicates Pataki, Oros is going to have his own Jeremiah Wright moment.

There are looking at hundreds of thousands of dollars in this one, part of the dirty tricks project, and possibly also covering Pataki’s use of aircraft. If they get some of that, there will be indictments. Pataki and Spitzer are both almost in the soup. Both could go down. Whatever the state cops may have done, they did’t do on their own.

serving as subpoeana and finding evidence of criminality
are two separate issues…although I personally have no
doubt that the state police overstepped their bounds

Can anyone in NYS politics cut taxes? Why do they always spend, spend, spend. Just once, I want to hear a story of a cheap politican who loves to SAVE money.
IS THIS JUST A FANTASY???

Ten million dollars for a RESEARCH facility. Not ten million dollars to accomplish something, ten million dollars to RESEARCH if there is something to accomplish. How much research has already been done and how much more is needed to confirm that that the ten million, for starters, should be used for problems that have already been long ago identified? Glad to hear, too, that the governor’s “motorcade” didn’t bump into Bruno’s “motorcade.” What do we have here, Louis XIV and Mary, Queen of Scots? Get in your damned taxpayer’ car with your taxpayers’ driver and get to the meeting – and tell your dozens of hangers-on and aides to meet you there. There’s no wonder these guys get along so well – they agree to let each other burn our money for special interests’ concerns and to pocket money dumped on them FROM special interests.

Paterson is beyond clueless. His ideas of priorities are contradictory.

But could it be that Paterson and Bruno really are jolly for another reason? Fred Dicker reports in today’s NY Post that a subpoena was served in White Plains last week by Andrew Cuomo’s investigators. They are closing in on Pataki’s and Spitzer’s “dirty trickster” Daniel Wiese, the former state cop honcho they parked in the Power Authority.

There might have been lots of taxpayers’ money ill-spent. That could be bad news for Pataki, and still another dose of bad news for Client Number 9, Spitzer.
