That was totally unhelpful. I don't even know what the middle brother from Godfather looks like. I would recognize Al Pacino and the guy who played the main guy before the main character died in that movie or one of the other ones.

If you do not know "The Godfather" it will not make as much sense. But the oldest, Sonny, was killed. Fredo got passed over because he was one of those guys who while he always meant well just never could get it together. Being the younger brother of the NY Gov and Italian, he was tagged with the name "Fredo" and he really, really hated it. Well, you know what happens if a guy lets someone know they hate something like that. The President is a fink. |

In the movie Fredo was a blithering idiot who always screwed things up. Because that pretty much describes Cuomo people started calling him Fredo, Fredo Cuomo. One time in a restaurant a customer thought his real name was Fredo and said it to his face and Cuomo became unglued. It was hilarious to watch. If you take a risk, you may lose.

Oh, we're talking about Cuomo? Why is he still being talked about? That sex pervert resigned as Governor months ago...I'm surprised it took CNN this long to fire him, but then, I never knew he worked for CNN to begin with.

We're talking about his brother Fredo who just got fired from CNN. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Oh, that helps. I didn't know he had a brother. "War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen..let us give them all they want." William T. Sherman |
