Albany,n.y. Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 If you ever need an example of a Buffalo accent, Frank Budwey is your man. They've been showing his anti sugar beverage tax ads on tv. Here's a link: http://www.nysenate.gov/video/2010/mar/09/...gainst-soda-tax
BB27 Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 Love that western ny accent. He's dead on about the tax issue too. With the economy the way it is, I'm amazed at all the new taxes that are coming our way (health scare).
WVUFootball29 Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 He should be calling it pop instead of soda but then the people in Albany won't know what the heck he is talking about.
Albany,n.y. Posted March 27, 2010 Author Posted March 27, 2010 Budwey never called it soda or pop. He referred to them as beverages & said he was against the beverage tax.

ExiledInIllinois Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 The accent is also very Chicago, just watered down a bit.
inkman Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 The long nasally "a" in tax is the dead give away.
