Under the scorn of a fill in governor

So Paterson decided to Scorn us. Here is what he was quoted saying in the news in regard to our "refusal to participate in the collection" of the cigarette tax as well as our "unnacceptable" idea to bail out his local municipalities that HE is leaving high and dry by allowing illegal gaming devices with in our exclusivity area.  Why are we to pay them when they have their own "casino" not even 15 miles from one of our casino's?

But he did not mention that, nor did he mention how their government is full of fat cats who are spending tax dollars recklessly on pet projects and assistants for the assistants for the co directors of each legislators office. What is also funny is how he says:  "This is not how government works in the state of NY." 

He is right about that, you lie, cheat and steal, you are not up front nor do you follow through or keep promises. That is how New Yorks government works.  Actually New Yorks government is broke and I don't mean just financially.

Here is what was said in his visit to Western New York yesterday..

"Paterson scorned the Seneca Nation of Indians for its refusal to participate in the collection of $4.35 in new tobacco taxes for each pack of cigarettes sold. Non-Indian retailers have been collecting the state tax since Sept. 1, while tribes have refused.
Three tribes, including the Seneca Nation, are arguing the case in federal court.
At the same time, the Senecas have delayed making $214 million in casino-related payments to the cash-starved state, citing their belief that New York has violated terms of its 2001 compact with the tribe by allowing slot-machine operations at horse tracks in Batavia and Hamburg.
Paterson's legal counsel, Peter Kiernan, last week gave Barry Snyder Sr., Seneca Nation president, until Oct. 20 to make the payments or risk having gaming licenses withdrawn for three casinos in Niagara Falls, Buffalo and Salamanca.
Snyder and the Senecas have offered to make direct payments to the municipalities and bypass the state.
"It is unacceptable to us," Paterson said.
