New York State Should Assert our 10th Amendment Rights
The time has come for the New York State Legislature to assert our 10th Amendment Constitutional rights.
We are a sovereign state and it is important that we end Washington’s practice of trying to govern all 50 states. Federal legislation is coming with too many strings attached. Politicians in Washington actually believe that they can spend our money wiser than we can.
Quite frankly, I do not have much trust in the Washington and Albany establishments, and as we prepare to elect better leaders and fresh faces in 2010, someone in Albany needs to stand up now for New York taxpayers and take on this initiative.
I am calling for any elected official, of any party, to show some leadership and offer legislation to appropriately assert our sovereignty as a state.
New York is not a branch of the U.S. government.
— Lee Zeldin (Candidate for New York State Senate)

A Tale Of Two Republican Parties-A must read
This is a great article, we thank the author for his candor.
A Tale Of Two Republican Parties.
On one side we have the party Conservatives. On the other we have the RINOs. You’ll notice there is no middle category here. I think that all but the densest, tunnel-visioned and hide-bound ‘old guard’ Republicans have figured out that the Patriot Movement (what they and the lame-stream press love to call ‘the Tea Baggers’) is no flash in the pan, and has just grown stronger despite the worst the leftist press and the Democrat spin machine (and some Republicans) could do to denigrate it and drive wedges into it. Their breathless characterization of a third party fell flatter than last week’s beltway champagne.
It is, by any measure, the new voice of the Republican party and, in point of fact, is not being controlled by the Party but is pulling the party along behind it. The new Conservative Republican party has a bright future, with a highly motivated and self-aware membership made up of solid conservative patriots who are determined that the principles of freedom that make this country great will be upheld.
We have come very close to losing our country. We might yet. The forces of freedom have been marshaled to stop the march to totalitarianism none too soon. We have some really promising rising stars in the party. Wholesome, grounded Conservatives like Wisconsin’s Paul Ryan, who single-handedly carved President Obama’s arguments to shreds at the health care summit. We have Michael Pence, John Boehner, Eric Cantor, Michelle Bachmann and others.
Then we have the RINOs. There is really no room for these people in our party going forward, their names are familiar to us all and the damage they have caused well known. Several are facing primary challenges as we speak, others will retire rather than face the just retribution of their constituents. Those who are not up for election this cycle such as Lindsey Graham (amnesty, green jobs, carbon tax) will be voted out next time around. John McCain faces a strong challenge in Arizona and none to soon. After all the damaging and totally wrong-headed stuff he has signed off on you’d think he’d learn. Now he’s out to try and regulate the vitamin and food supplement industry so that the government can destroy more private business. Maine’s Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins are two more that need to go.
The Democrat party is not the party of my grandparents, or my parents for that matter. It is a party of committed ideologues run by Leftists, Progressives, Marxists, Communists (name your poison), whose only goal is to fundamentally change this country into that of a socio-Marxist state. There are some principled people left in the party, albeit isolated and powerless. The very nature of the party mission does not permit dissent nor foster independent thinking or opinions. Those who do not march in lockstep with the leadership are treated as outcasts, in some instances given the treatment that resulted in Senator Joseph Lieberman leaving the party.
This is the face of the enemy. We have to win. There is no option.
This is why a new, vital Conservative Republican party is being forged.

McConnell Blasts Government Over ‘Gag Order’ on Private Health Care Provider
U.S. health officials launched an investigation into Humana after the Louisville-based company mailed a letter to patients enrolled in its Medicare Advantage plans, alerting them that President Obama’s health overhaul could eliminate important benefits of the program.

Tracking Your Taxes: Sending Billions in Aid to Despots and Wealthy Nations
The U.S. spends billions in taxpayer money on foreign assistance each year, but large pieces of the $36.7 billion aid budget will be going to countries whose leaders attack the U.S. — and to others that are already rolling in dough.
Critics Assail Obama’s ‘Safe Schools’ Czar, Say He’s Wrong Man for the Job
Critics say Kevin Jennings is too radical for the job of director of the Office of Safe and Drug Free Schools, citing what they say is his promotion of homosexuality in schools, his writings about his past drug abuse and his onetime contempt for religion.
By Maxim Lott, FOXNews.com, Wednesday, September 23, 2009
President Obama’s “safe schools czar” is a former schoolteacher who has advocated promoting homosexuality in schools, written about his past drug abuse, expressed his contempt for religion and detailed an incident in which he did not report an underage student who told him he was having sex with older men.
Conservatives are up in arms about the appointment of Kevin Jennings, Obama’s director of the Office of Safe and Drug Free Schools, saying he is too radical for the job.
Jennings was appointed to the position largely because of his longtime record of working to end bullying and discrimination in schools. In 1990, as a teacher in Massachusetts, he founded the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN), which now has over 40 chapters at schools nationwide.

Fund: Don’t Forget Obama’s ACORN Connections |

| Only one of the five television networks that interviewed President Obama for their Sunday shows bothered to ask him about Acorn, the left-wing community organizing group whose federal funding was cut off last week by an overwhelming vote in Congress, writes political analyst John Fund in The Wall Street Journal.“‘Frankly, it’s not something I’ve followed closely,” Mr. Obama claimed, adding he wasn’t even aware the group had been the recipient of significant federal funding. “This is not the biggest issue facing the country. It’s not something I’m paying a lot of attention to,” he said.” Mr. Obama took great pains to act as if he barely knew about Acorn. In fact, his association goes back almost 20 years….. | ||

“I believe that 100 percent of those who are opposing him (Obama) now would be against him if he were a white Democrat.” – Bill Clinton, who also dismisses Jimmy Carter’s comments on race and advises the Republicans to come up with a plan similar to Newt Gingrich’s “Contract With America”.
