“Hey you'll have to look up Mapleleaf and go for drinks. LOL!”

No one knows the full ramifications of a government shutdown," said Paterson. "It would create unimaginable chaos around the state and the greater metropolitan areas."

Such chaos includes closing all state parks, motor vehicles offices, courts, and even the lottery. Public assistance payments would not be made and unemployment payments might also be held up.

The governor is in this pickle, in part, because wild cards like Sen. Ruben Diaz Sr. (D-Bronx) and possibly scandal-scarred Sen. Pedro Espada (D-Bronx) might not go along.

Sources said the next emergency bill from Paterson will have up to $350 million in cuts to human services and mental health. But Republicans, who could become Paterson's new allies in the budget battle, aren't satisfied with that.

They want $750 million in new cuts like:


•Delaying the 10 percent welfare grant increases
•Withholding welfare from those who don't comply with employment requirements
•Reducing the personal needs allowance of people in drug and alcohol programs

Diaz will not go along with that. ”

“nigal.. lmao”

“not to mention the fact that I'll be up there in a few weeks.”

I've alerted the NYPD”

“LOL...They will be on strike tree, luckily you have liberal Gun ownership laws to protect you.”

“I never owned a gun, XL.”

“Are you implying that Opie is some sort of a threat, XL?”

“he did say they have goats *snicker*”

“OOH good one Opie encourage Snicker to go up there.

Snicker....reread the article and concentrate on the topic. NY is going broke and may shut down. Opie doesn't figure into the issue...its the fact that the liberal "give the parasites anything they want" society is crashing down.

OH and tree...I am so proud of you.”

“OH and tree...I am so proud of you.”

Why on earth would you be proud of me? Or not, for that matter, I wouldn't even venture to say I was "proud" of that decision. Pride is irrelevant in this instance. Expressing yourself has never been your strong point, has it?”

“"Snicker....reread the article and concentrate on the topic. NY is going broke and may shut down. Opie doesn't figure into the issue...its the fact that the liberal "give the parasites anything they want" society is crashing down."

I didn't the article because it's a lame stream media source. Your commentary/opinion is noted. Many States are going broke and it's not purely due to one political party or the other.”
