Andrew Cuomo - Two Faces As Andrew Cuomo Changes Pay To Play To Indirect Payment

"" Two Faces As Cuomo Changes Pay To Play To Indirect Payment

"Follow the money" or "The best candidate that money can buy."

My friend, Joe, enlightened me decades earlier that for great service and a good table, the time to tip the maitre d' and then your waiter is when you first meet each. Does this apply elsewhere in New York?

Andrew Cuomo is the multi-faceted candidate, with a smiling face for everybody. Andrew Cuomo's face towards the People on his web site say Cuomo wants, "to eliminate pay to play campaign contributions."

Another face of Andrew Cuomo looks at his donation forms, where "contributors [are asked] to sign a statement saying they have no “matter” pending with him. That rule “does not extend to attorneys representing persons or entities with matters before the NYS Attorney General’s office.”

"Contributors to Cuomo include a who's who of law firms and their attorneys. In addition to Boies, Patterson Belknap, Paul Weiss, Sullivan & Cromwell, Skadden Arps, Kramer Levin, Mayer Brown and O'Melveny & Myers are named in the article as contributors or event sponsors."

The People have Cuomo's and his contributing attorneys' assurances that said attorneys would never give money, if they thought it would benefit themselves or their clients, "We do not think that the attorney general of New York would make it any easier for lawyers or cut any slack for their clients because of the lawyers’ prior campaign contributions,” said Arthur Culvahouse Jr., the law firm’s chair, who was counsel to President Ronald Reagan in the 1980s.

“That was not our thinking in 2006 or now. Indeed, as officers of the court we would not contribute to a candidate if we thought that were the case.”

Cuomo wants to eliminate direct pay to play. The People are assured that no NY attorneys would ever act as cash conduits for their clients in an indirect pay to play scheme.

Andrew, a smiling face for everybody? There will be no indirect pay to play through attorneys? What will my measly single vote buy? ""

Andrew Cuomo - Stop Protecting Corruption - Senator Espada has asked, why didn't Andrew Cuomo File criminal charges? Pedro Espada is Right.

"" Cuomo Announces His Success Against Espada At Liar's Club

“Our government teaches the whole people by its example. If the government becomes the lawbreaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy." ~Louis D. Brandeis (Supreme Court Justice, 1856-1941)

News From Liar's Club House Journal, a.k.a. NY Times ("All the lies fitted into print") : Andrew Cuomo spoke at the Liar's Club, right after someone else said, "he was the biggest liar."

Then, Cuomo announced his magnificent civil suit against the uppity Senator Pedro Espada who finagled to become majority leader.Now, as not reported in the Liar's Club House Journal: Senator Espada has asked, why didn't Cuomo file criminal charges? Espada is right.

Cuomo's civil suit won't be resolved until after Cuomo hopes he's governor. And worse, the money which could have gone into the State Treasury from a successful NY RICO prosecution of Pedro Espada now cannot go toward NY's Budget needs. As described in prior posts here, Espada's alleged crime represents just 0.001% of the fraud (potential RICO money for the NY Treasury?) involved in federal TARP program's "assets."

The Federal TARP program, supposedly, was to remove those toxic mortgage assets from our financial system, which were generated from Cuomo's Actions as Federal HUD Secretary. But, those Toxic assets are still there. That federal TARP should be competing for the lie of the year 2008.

Meanwhile, while "Nero" Cuomo's NY State is burning from budget shortfalls, Cuomo worries that the plants at the Botanical Gardens could use more watering, er, sorry (lying is not my forte), Pedro Espada needs to face this civil suit.

Cuomo's action against Espada is either too little or too late, or a part of Cuomo's "mating" ritual display to become Governor.

Steve Levy, NY Governor Candidate , sniffed a stench and asked why Cuomo ignored all the other corrupt Senators and Assemblymen? And why does Cuomo ignore the $40 million dollar fraud involving the Chief Judge, Lippman, and Judge Ramos, when he and his staff's work has already done for them, because the witnesses and papers are already available for a Grand Jury and a Trial.

Please, Andrew "Gollum" Cuomo, your NY TARP (Toxic Attorneys and Reprobates Protector) covering up NY corruption may serve your needs to shakedown and protect corruption, but not doesn't serve ours. And Gollum Cuomo, if you want "The Ring," earn it. ""
