Buchanan Cuomo smiles b Art i Here was Joy the Cuomo in 88 one of Csomos political did you read the papers Pat Buchanan has called the governor a fast talking lobbyist for a reactionary liberalism thai would kill tax Reform in its Csomos not upset by that 1 he has to or blend he but behind closed doors Hes the Nike that Buchanan has selected him As his 1 democratic candidate would give his Eye tech to be on the receiving end of so much in sure Pat int doing it just to get Cuomo nominated in i maybe maybe were not about to find out what causes Buchanan temper listen to this from Pat Csomos incessant invocations of the the the almost invariably turn up As pre ambles to budget requests that would augment the Power of his own political class the welfare what Are welfare statist 1 imagine they Are people in a state of the Way we figure Buchanan considers Cuomo the presidents most formidable enemy when it comes to tax Rea Gan no longer wants to make state and City taxes if the governor can rally support to permit people to keep their state and local tax deductions it would be a big defeat for the White that Why Buchanan is resorting to personal attacks on the the tax Reform Bill
