Big Brother has a new name:  Picosecond Programmable Laser.  The science of it fascinates me; the need for it makes me wonder what kind of world have we become. 

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Gillibrand (202-224-3121 the Senate Switchboard Main Number) and give them the top 5 reasons Obamacare/tax should be repealed.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.

Governor George E. Pataki on the importance of doing what is right for all New Yorkers. 

Wednesday's with Walter E. Williams and more from Thomas Sowell. here and here.   Thanks, Dennis Prager, you and Mr. Williams and Mr Sowell, have rescued me from Wonderland.

President Obama blames tax cuts for slow growth, unfortunately he believes what he says.  For someone so smart, how can he be so dumb on this issue.  More on what the Tax Man, aka President Obama, wants.

The only way to end this is to have a healthy economy.   Corporations that are his buddies may get tax relief, while most businesses get taxed to the extreme.

It's okay for her to invest outside of the US, but not okay for Mitt Romney.

Hold onto your wallet, Amtrack wants to expand. 

Want to cut your electric rates.... read this.  Still not convinced, read this. Then call Governor Andrew Cuomo.

Tuesday's with Thomas Sowell (more on the All Stars).

The tax man, aka President Obama,  wants you to put him back in office so he can continue to take your money and give it to his buddies.  Between this and Obamacare/tax, people won't be able to find a state they can afford to live in and will start leaving the United States in droves.   Forbes with more insight on Obamacare/tax.  The NY Post spells out the numbers. 

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.

Thomas Sowell on the All Stars (everyone needs a break from politics once in a while, even Thomas Sowell)

Weekly Wrap-Up

Unfortunately, for all Americans, the job numbers released today, was not good news. Unemployment remains at 8.2% and all indications are that the numbers are trending in the wrong direction. The Heritage Foundation has an excellent chart that shows what President Obama promised Americans in 2009 and where we are today. The news is only going to get worse as recent college graduates are unable to find jobs, we must take the uncertainty out of the job market and encourage free market principles to prevail. After three and a half years of trying to fix the economy, Alan Kreuger, chairman of Obama’s Council of Economic Advisors, said today “there are no quick fixes to the problems”. To which we ask, what was the purpose of the taxpayer -funded stimulus? Our debt is out of control due to uncalled for spending and the answer is there are no quick fixes, but give us another four years and we may be able to fix the problems.

The government intervention and takeover of General Motors gives us insight as to how the current administration “fixes” the economy and frankly, their plan has harmed American taxpayers.


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!

The fallout from the Supreme Court decision on Obamacare continues and mot likely will for quite some time.  We may never know if Chief Justice Roberts changed his decision and we may never know if Justice Kagan violated judicial ethics, we do, however, know that we must live with the decision and we can overturn Obamacare by electing Wendy Long and other like minded US Senators to take back the Senate and we must elect conservative minded Members to the House along with Mitt Romney who has stated unequivocally that he will sign legislation repealing Obamacare. 

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.  WSJ writes about the vast new taxing power created with Obamacare.  And the "rich" won't be the only ones paying the new taxes and penalties.

With all the news on Obamacare, you may have missed that the White House is doing its best to keep the unemployment figures down.

President Obama has been working hard on fundraising, (of course, he is the only President that has gone gray,)  so hard in fact that he now needs a week off!

Is this our future?

Good news:  the majority of high school students remain abstinent.

More on Wendy Long's great primary win here and here

Well Senator Gillibrand, when will you answer Wendy Long's question?
