The Heritage Foundation on the Oil Spill...And the WSJ on where the Obama Administration is okay with offshore drilling....and it is not in our United States! (All right it is an old article, but does it explain the President's thinking???)

Did you ever think you would see this in the NY Times? Part of the article "Democratic governors voiced deep anxiety about the Obama administration’s suit against Arizona’s new immigration law, worrying that it could cost a vulnerable Democratic Party in the fall elections."

More on Donald Berwick. (Don't forget to vote in our poll)

I'm beginning to think that the Senator is forgetting why he was elected. Perhaps it is time to remind him!

Ted Nugent wants to know: What Happened to America?

Yup, he is really going to change the way politics gets done in NYS! And if you believe that, there is a bridge for sale in Brooklyn. We can really make a difference this year and elect a Governor who is willing to make the difficult choices by cutting spending, Rick Lazio is the only candidate who has the knowledge and ability to do so.

Fred Dicker on NY's First Lady's sweet deal. And another huge blunder by our current hapless Governor.

Weekly Wrap-up

We’re seeing more and more how Barack Obama and his crew in Washington (and his allies here in New York) have little regard for checks-and-balances, open debate, the legislative process, the consent of the governed, the rule of law – for any of America’s founding principles...

Here’s the latest in judicial activism. Andrew Cuomo is thrilled, I’m sure, but most Americans are most likely very concerned about radical policies being imposed by unaccountable judges...

And anyone who doesn’t want to have their income redistributed or be “rationed” right out of existence should be concerned about Obama’s Hugo Chavez-like recess appointment of left-wing socialized medicine extremist and “one man death panel” Donald Berwick...

What scares you the most about Donald Berwick’s radical views? Give your opinions in our Weekly Poll.

Anyone who, like all of us at the Conservative Party, put an emphasis on protecting America’s interests have to wonder about the much-heralded “spy swap” between the U.S. and Russia. What did the U.S. get out of this? How did our nation benefit? Or was this just another example of the Obama Administration’s pathetic efforts to make other countries like us, no matter what?

Elections are for little people, the Democrats seem to be saying as they plan to completely disregard the upcoming midterms and impose their agenda whether the American people like it or not...

And the American people don’t like it, that’s for sure...

The President would surely blame American un-exceptionalism for the public’s unenlightened views – and besides, no matter how low his poll numbers dip, President Obama thinks highly enough of himself to make up the difference...

And does it really matter to the president what voters think? The Obama Administration doesn’t seem very opposed to voter intimidation – at least not when leftists are doing the intimidating...

Some intimidation of our own here in New York, as the Paterson Administration puts whistleblowers on alert.

Have a great weekend!

Our gubernatorial candidate, Rick Lazio, is 100% correct in questioning Andrew Cuomo on the Cordoba House Islamic center.

The Massachusetts Health Care bill is not very healthy. According to the article Obamacare will be just as detrimental. The Heritage Foundation with more on Obamacare. Looks like Independents no longer believe in hope and change and come back to conservatism.

Why does the Administration have to bypass Congress and make a recess appointment when it is the same political party....something is just not right about the logic. What is in this person's background that Obama does not what to come to light?

Jay Towsend, Conservative Candidate for US Senate, calls on Se. Schumer to oppose construction of a Mosque and Islamic center overlooking Ground Zero. (No Link, check http://www.townsendfornewyork.com/news later for the letter sent to Sen. Schumer.)

Weekly Wrap-Up

This week we’ve learned quite a bit about people’s priorities...

President Obama’s newest priority is amnesty for illegal aliens... with real border security serving as just another political bargaining chip.

Another focus for the President and his liberal friends: putting the best spin possible on the latest jobs report.

But recognizing the true nature of the threats facing America – that’s not so much a priority for Barack Obama and his Attorney General, Eric Holder.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has a brilliant solution to the jobs crisis – unemployment checks! You have to read this to believe it...

Here in New York, Andrew Cuomo has announced that legalizing gay marriage will be his top priority if he wins this November.

Do you agree with Andrew Cuomo that allowing gay marriage is the most important issue facing New York? Give your opinion in our new Weekly Poll.

Gov. Paterson – at least for right now – seems to have his priorities straight. He’s putting his veto pen to good use, rejecting the uncontrolled spending that is destroying New York.

We’re fortunate that in 1776, courageous men made it their priority to create a new nation, rooted in the idea “that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.”

Here Peggy Noonan has an interesting take on what didn’t make it into the Declaration of Independence...

Happy 4th, and have a great weekend!
