The New York Post has a few words on the government interference of a private business expressing a belief.

More on the debt crisis here.
The Heritage Foundation explains how President Obama is just plain wrong in his thinking that changing the work requirements for Welfare helps citizens.
Investor's Business Daily explains another pitfall President Obama created when he refused to approve the XL Pipeline....fortunately, election day is 98 days away and our ability to change the direction of our country is in our hands.
Another thank you to Judicial Watch.
Brit Hume on former President Clinton's role at the Democratic National Convention....personally I think Hume is spot-on.
Yesterday we mentioned that President Obama's big PR documentary on eliminating the world's most notorious killer most likely won't be released as planned prior to election day, today we learn that he may have called off the raid three times because his aides recommended it.
Tuesday's with Thomas Sowell.

More negative fallout from Obamacare/tax.
This certainly is not good news for the economy either.
The President may be running campaign ads that he has reduced debt, but his budget office tells us a different story.
The cost of making purchases with your credit/debit card could be going up....thank Trial Lawyers again for increasing the cost of doing business.
Is he kidding? How will former President Clinton be able to do this with a straight face?
President Obama needs more than President Clinton to make a case for him and his failed policies, Charles Gasparino writes today that we are seriously looking at another recession.
Thanks to Judicial Watch, it looks like President Obama's self promoting documentary won't be released in time to sway people before the elections.
Governor Cuomo needs to do more regarding spending in New York State, and the New York Post is correct about the whining, however it is time for Governor Cuomo to remove many of the unnecessary mandates imposed on school districts and localities.
Justice Scalia made major waves yesterday with this announcement!

We are still learning facts about Obamacare/tax, nothing that makes anyone want to keep this abysmal bill. More on the "unintended" consequences of Obamacare/tax. Will your company be one of the companies dropping health insurance coverage?
If you think Solyndra was the only "Green" solar company that went under, you will be surprised that Heritage Foundation has a list of 12 companies that wasted tax payers money.
Sen. Jim DeMint on Dodd-Frank. Sen.Jim DeMint also has an article on Washington's spending problem.
Pat Buchanan sounds off on President Obama's worship of centralized power.
More on the UN Arms Trade Treaty.
Obviously, Mayor Bloomberg, has lost all sense of reality by saying this.
How long will Racino's stick around when taxed so high? The major problem (besides the risks associated with gambling - a whole other story) is that New York gets used to the revenue and the companies get tired of the outrageous taxes (68%) and take their business where they can get a better profit, leaving a huge deficit in revenues which taxpayers are forced to pay or they move. Just remember, New York is down to 27 Congressional Districts, I remember 43 not that long ago.
Michael J. Gaynor likes the idea of Republican/Conservative women in the U. S. Senate. Wendy Long calls for a moment of silence to remember the 1972 Munich victims.

Tuesdays with Thomas Sowell.

New York still spends far too much on government programs and isn't doing well in other aspects. The Heritage Foundation cautions states about the future costs of Medicaid under Obamacare/tax. New York currently spends more on Medicaid than Florida, Texas and Pennsylvania combined...we can not afford any additional spending for Medicaid and this simple fact must be considered when voting for Congress and Senate in November. Obamacare/tax must be repealed.
Hydrofracking, is it possible in New York? One newspaper, the Albany Times Union, normally prints every negative article on hydrofracking, frankly, I'm surprised to see this in today's edition. Could they be seeing the light or just beginning to anticipate the revenues?
Investor's Business Daily debunks President Obama's "Tall Tales" about the Bush Administration....and reminds us of the spending done by the Bush Administration. Short and to the point, we need fiscal conservatism.
Ari Fleischer examines tax fairness.
L. Gordon Crovitz on who really invented the Internet, well worth the read in case you have liberal friends who think like President Obama.
Bad news for President Obama: The Hill's poll says 53% of voters blame president for the economy.
Thanks to the Heritage Foundation for bringing this back into the spotlight. Doesn't President Obama realize that in today's world, it is easy to remind voters of his flip-flops? Those of us who pay for government programs will remember in November.
Bam's moral myopia.

Even in heavily democratic New York City, small business owners are lashing out at the President's misguided but sincerely held remarks about those who own small businesses. Michael Barone has a few thoughts on President Obama's "dis" of hard working small business owners. This from Guy Benson on how we have not taken President Obama's remarks out of context is worth reading. If you are short on time and can only read one article on this subject, make it this one as Thomas Sowell tells it as it is in a manner that no one else can. The NY Post Editorial has its say also.
It won't be long before Sen. Schumer introduces a bill that allows only him (and his protegee, Kirsten Gillibrand) to be the only ones who can speak out on subjects because, of course, they are the only ones who know best.
Speaking of Sen. Gillibrand, our US Senate candidate, Wendy Long, wants to know when Sen. Gillibrand will renounce her ACORN ties. Take back New York, help elect Wendy Long.
File this under "do as I say, not as I do". If you want to know more about Congresswoman Pelosi's financial background pick up the book Throw Them All Out.

Anyone who has doubts about stop and frisk, read this. Stop and frisk saves lives, period.

Many believe New York is doing better financially. Read this and then ask yourself if New York is truly in better financial shape. Good advice from Steve Malanga; gambling is not the answer to fiscal problems.

Finally, Majority Leader Reid speaks the truth. We now know why he hasn't passed a budget in over 3 years.
However, Obama spokesman, Lis Smith, is on another planet if he really believes what he is saying here.
Good advice from Michael Gaynor for Mitt Romney. Maggie Haberman has a piece in Politico on conservative elites disappointment with Romney....but President Obama may have touched a nerve with his comments on small businesses that has ignited a fire in Romney.
Obama transparency? Not enough yet despite the fact that some are trying to make the administration live up to what it promised about transparency.
First he asked people to donate to him instead of giving wedding presents, now this. President Obama's funding raising is becoming, no it already is, an embarrassment. He is the leader of the free world, our Commander-in-Chief, and he is acting like a narcissistic, immature school boy who wants you to support his golf games.
Latinos support tax cuts for everyone.
The Heritage Foundation on President Obama's questionable ending welfare reform.
He's right, but at least some have learned with the help of strong conservatives and TEA party support. Now if we could only get the press to understand that if everyone is in the wagon, there is no one to left to push/pull the wagon. Maybe if they listen to the people who pay the bills, they will learn.
Why cities and counties go broke....they anticipate higher returns on investments and lately they are not there.
Not what New Yorkers want to read.
Bob McCarthy, long time political reporter for the Buffalo News, writes about Wendy Long's visit to Buffalo.
Wednesdays with Walter E. Williams.

What are the democrats in the US Senate drinking? Sen. Patty Murray, is that Kool-Aid or medicinal tea, what ever it is, it is distorting your ability to think clearly. Class warfare is wrong, period! Sen. Patty Murray and her fellow Senator Gillibrand sell out their constituents to remain in their elected seats and it is time to change course. We have an opportunity here in New York to elect a woman who will reflect our principles and values, Wendy Long. Mrs. Long was on Fox News this past Sunday and you can watch the interview here. Get involved, Wendy Long can with with your help.
I seldom agree with the Huff Post, but I must say, I like this headline and I like what it points out! Thanks Dan for acknowledging that we are doing our job.
The Heritage Foundation reminds us how important the 2012 elections will be. They also remind us that it was 32 years ago, today, that Ronald Reagan accepted the Republican nomination at the national convention. Watch the video to be inspired again and know that America's future is in your hands.
Fresh from his win in defeating L.O.S.T., Sen. Jim DeMint has a new project that he needs your help with.
Mona Charen opines on the misguided attempt to change welfare. The NY Torch sounds off also.
Disgraced Anthony Weiner does not have any fans in the NY Post Editorial Board or the NY Daily News Editorial Board. Hopefully the rumors of his running for Mayor will end now.
Tuesday's with Thomas Sowell.

The question is, will President Obama return the donations?
Why does President Obama want to keep people poor and dependent? Would he totally eliminate Congress in a second term since he has little use for them now and rules by executive order and rewriting laws?
Judicial Watch uncovers data from Census Bureau that will get you upset.
A Republican Majority Leader would never be allowed to get away with not passing a budget for three years, yet Harry Reid does.Thankfully the NY Post shines the light on his disgraceful lack of responsibility.
Finally! The Ninth Circuit gets something right.

Do you understand the logic here: A Solyndra-linked executive to lead the Pentagon's Advance Tech Agency.
The House will vote right on Obamacare, the Senate will not. Call Senators Schumer and Gillibrand (202-224-3121 the Senate Switchboard Main Number) and give them the top 5 reasons Obamacare/tax should be repealed. The Heritage Foundation has the reasons here. We will not have to call Wendy Long once she is elected to the Senate; Wendy Long will always look out for us, unlike HHS Secretary Sielbus who refuses to,
More on what the Tax Man, aka President Obama, tax hikes on top 2% will do to jobs. If you watch Fox News, you also know that his proposal would only fund government for 8.5 days.....(another great moment in common sense logic.) Doesn't he understand that what he has said and done in the past is recorded and will be used to remind voters of his failures? Seriously, does anyone really believe he only wants to tax the top 2% if earners?
So the NAACP can ask for an ID, but if someone asks for an ID to vote, it is racist. (I must be in Wonderland today and my name is Alice.)
President Obama and VP Biden will certainly find a way to blame Bush for this.
Check out this headline, in a year or less just substitute California for France.

The Heritage Foundation on the possibility of another recession.
But how will they vote?
We are not only facing a huge increase in taxes, it may cost more to use your credit card soon. Since when is $3.35 a gallon for gas considered low?
The Heritage Foundation, once again, reminds us that this Administration needs to be replaced, now the Transportation Secretary wants us to be more like China.
It's just a drop in the bucket, but it is a drop. We need to elect more fiscal conservatives to Congress, to keep the trend going.
David Keene opines on Fast and Furious.
It isn't the heat that is creating the jump in crime and the NY Post Editorial is reminding the public where the problem is.
Wendy Long, our U. S. Senate candidate, is calling for five debates across New York State. Wouldn't it be great to have five debates, see Wendy's outline for the debates here.

Weekly Wrap-Up
When the Supreme Court ruled that Obamacare is really the largest tax increase ever in America, and the Obama Administration continues to deny that fact, nothing was done to end the uncertainty of actual implication of the plan and the eventual cost to businesses, thereby extending uncertainty and stifling any job creation. Since 2008, fewer adults are getting health insurance through their employers and this is before full implementation of Obamacare/tax.
The “War on Women” seems to be taking its toll on women working as there are 780,000 fewer women working today than in 2008, but the mainstream media does not mention that fact.
Many issues will be front and center in November’s elections. Our weekly poll wants to know which issue you believe to be the one that will influence your vote.
Charles Krauthammer reminds us that the Supreme Court did have a good decision last week; unfortunately, we do not believe it will end sanctuary cities as evidenced by what California is planning.
Howard Schultz, Starbucks CEO, is speaking my kind of language. In addition, lest we forget, Ronald Reagan always spoke our language; back in 1961, he spoke out against socialized medicine and it would be well worth listening to him today, truly a man who understood our Republic. Listen to him here and take his advice, forty years later it is even more imperative than when first spoken.
Conservative/Republican US Senate Candidate, Wendy Long, shows the same wisdom and understanding that Ronald Reagan did, and will certainly make a strong difference when in the United States Senate when she is elected in November.
Have a great weekend!

If you have any doubts that it must be repealed, look at this chart. 17 new taxes and penalties and many doctors who will either leave medicine or cater to those who can afford their fees.
