Rowland for Congress in NY-28
The word “gerrymander” means to divide (a territorial unit) into election districts to give one political party an electoral majority in a large number of districts while concentrating the voting strength of the opposition in as few districts as possible according to the Merriam Webster dictionary. New York’s 28th Congressional District was carefully crafted to illustrate that definition. Actually, it was crafted to ensure that the inner cities of Buffalo and Rochester would always be able to elect a liberal Democrat. The current occupant of this Democratic seat for life is Louise Slaughter. We have criticized Louise in the past for her ultra-liberal views and anti-military stances. And, for the fact that she retains her Texas accent after have been an area resident for decades. The New York Republican Party routinely offers sacrificial lambs … Read entire article »

The truth about Barry Obama
As much as I loath Harry Reid, he’s being slammed for saying something that ought not to draw any criticism. CNN: “He (Reid) was wowed by Obama’s oratorical gifts and believed that the country was ready to embrace a black presidential candidate, especially one such as Obama – a ‘light-skinned’ African American ‘with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one,’ as he said privately. Reid was convinced, in fact, that Obama’s race would help him more than hurt him in a bid for the Democratic nomination,” they write. Barry Obama is half white, thus he is lighter skinned than many black men. He does not have an accent when he speaks, unless he chooses to use one – much like Rev. Jesse Jackson. Both are facts and not subject to dispute. I … Read entire article »

Malkin shows “a hint of decolletage”
Or so says a Washington Times columnist when viewing the 2010 Clare Boothe Luce Policy Institute’s Great American Conservative Women Calendar. Speaking of blondes, no roster of Republican hotties would be complete without the irreverent Ann Coulter, who precedes Miss Prejean in the calendar as Miss September. True to form, Miss Coulter bucks tradition by being the only calendar girl not in a white button-down shirt; she is photographed in a simple white t-shirt with her signature cross pendant dangling from her neck. Other women in the calendar, which is distributed free to publicize the institute, include former Virginia Republican Party Chairman Kate Obenshain, who looks seductively into the camera for her glamour shot, political strategist Kellyanne Conway and columnist Michelle Malkin, who both sport shirts unbuttoned to reveal a hint of decolletage … Read entire article »

Don’t Forget to Vote!
November 2nd, 2010 | Comments Off
Nothing will change without you voting. If you cannot vote for a candidate, then vote against one. Remember that Americans don’t elect politicians for life so voting out an incumbent is always a good idea. Our picks: Governor – Carl Paladino (R) (and we ARE holding our nose) Lt. Governor – Robert Duffy (D) Comptroller – Harry Wilson (R) Attorney General – Dan Donovan (R) Senate 2 yr term – Joseph DioGuardi (R) Senate 6 year term – Jay Townsend (R) (oust entrenched incumbent) Congress 28th district – Jill Rowland (R) (oust entrenched incumbent) State Senate – Mary Wilmot (D) (oust entrenched incumbent) State Assembly – Mark Scuderi (R) (oust entrenched incumbent) On the BACK of the ballot – vote NO on all propositions … Read entire article »
