So it begins: Part II
Posted by: | CommentsLast week Democrats went to work informing Americans that they were going to do their best to take away the one thing that insures new drug creation. Profits. This week Democrats are promising to pull a Munich, Yalta, Mogadishu or any other example of appeasement gone bad you would like to use as an example. Over the weekend Carl Levine, the incoming Democrat chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, promised to introduce a plan to withdraw troops from Iraq in four to six months. Now I’ll...

So it begins:
Posted by: | CommentsDemocrats are wasting no time informing Americans about their plans to fight the invisible hand of capitalism. Harry Reid is already on the attack, stating he plans on going after the drug companies to get them to lower their prices. Now I’m not saying they won’t be successful in getting drug prices lower but what people should consider is the reaction to his action. Drug companies have been producing drugs to allow us to live longer because of the reward that goes with the risk. Companies... Read More→
One of the issues Democrats seized this election was the small pay raise Americans on average were experiencing. The truth when it comes to pay increases is that companies tie them to the current rate of inflation. The reason pay raises have been small at around 3% is because the Federal Reserve has done a great job of controlling inflation. New Yorkers have to ask how did the City Council come up with a 14% pay raise when inflation is only at 3% and their salaries are already above the average... Read More→
If anyone should support free trade it’s Charley Rangel:
Posted by: | CommentsOut of all the post election articles I have read, the best one so far is in today’s FT. The article titled, “Free trade is the real election casualty”, points out how most of the Democrats that gained seats at the expense of Republicans did so running on a protectionist campaign or what the author calls “economic nationalism”. It is no longer a secret that in the long run free trade creates more jobs then it costs. Mercantilism as an economic theory has long been discarded and thrown... Read More→
The best new job in New York:
Posted by: | CommentsAs of this morning the best job in New York will be the person who gets to be the chairman of the Republican Party in the State. If Republicans decide to replace Minarik, for the new Chairman it will be like Lou Piniella coaching the Chicago Cubs. There is only one way to go but up and the team has been so bad that their use to loosing, so expectations will be low making it easy to succeed. Read More →
The good thing about the Democrat’s New York sweep:
Posted by: | CommentsNew York Republicans should cheer up this morning because there’s some good news buried under the disaster. Now that Democrats have taken complete control of New York they can no longer blame us for New York’s ills. Over the next 18 months as New York slides deep into a hole like the New York Times circulation, New Yorkers will be forced to look to Democrats who were unable to create the utopian society they promised. Over the next 18 months New York home prices will decline, taxes will go up,... Read More→
“They can’t run anything right”
Posted by: | CommentsThat was what former President Clinton told supporters last night, referring to George Bush. Well Bill nobody is as perfect as you. The way you handled Mogadishu was just brilliant. Oh and Wako, great job there! How many American women and children were killed? Plus who can forget little Elian Gonzalez. Thank God the Swat Team was called in to grab the kid because I personally thought he was dangerous to our national security. Those last minute pardons, you pulled those off perfectly. My favorite...

Will Democrats turnout to vote?
Posted by: | CommentsThis morning I went to vote at my normal time of 8:15. Usually when I go and vote my number is in the high 20’s almost 30. Today I was 17! Also my station has three districts that vote and out of the whole auditorium I was the only one voting. I was there for 15 minutes speaking to someone I know who monitors the poll and not one person walked in to vote for any of the three districts. Considering my district is heavily Democrat (we haven’t had a Republican run for Congress against the Democrat... Read More→
Are you going to pick those up now?
Posted by: | CommentsLast night going home I passed dozens of Hillary signs stapled to every lamppost. I have to ask isn’t this illegal? Worse I left my home this morning to pass the same sings with half of them already on the floor. Nice to see Hillary cares about the neighborhood. Read More →
Somebody tell Ned Lamont:
Posted by: | CommentsThe Washington Post has an aricle about how troops in Iraq are voicing concern that they will be pulled out of Iraq to early. One solider quoted in the article stated:“This is a worthwhile endeavor”. “Nothing that is worthwhile is usually easy, and we need to give this more time for it to all come together. We all want to come home, but we have a significant investment here, and we need to give the Iraqi army and the Iraqi people a chance to succeed.” It’s to bad Democrats... Read More→
