  The Obama adminstrtaion changed locations fof his speech which will now be given at th SUNY Albany Nanotech Campus. This has caused national speculation that he cahnged locations due to the fact that the Global Foundries plantin Malta is owned by the country of Abu Dabai. Personally,I don't care who owns the company. They have created almost 20000 high paying jobs in the area which is more than the Obama administration has done for us.

   President Obama will be coming to speak at the New Global Foundries Chip Fab Plant in Malta, NY on Tuesday, May 8th. This will be yet another taxpayer-funded campaign stop as part of his record-setting campaign tour this year. President Obama has made more campaign speeches so far than the last 5 Presidents combined.

  I can only assume that President Obama's speech will focus on the 1500 Jobs that are being created at the plant and the importance of government investment in businesses. There is about a 20% chance that he will mention that the Malta plant received over $1.5 Billion of taxpayer money to bring Global Foundries to our area.

  5 Men were arrested by the FBI in Cleveland today,for attempting to blow up a bridge there. At least two of the men were members of the Occupy Cleveland movement, according to their facebook pages.

  This is the true face of the Occupy movememt, in my opinion. We have a bunch of Marxists, Communists, Socialists, and anarchists who worship Machiavelli, and have no sense of morality, running around trying to destroy everything that America stands for. My question is this:
"Will the MSM report that these people are members of the Occupy movement, or will they continue to hide the truth, and portray these men as anarchists."

  The Obama administration is spending $8 Billion dollars from an account meant for "experiments" to temporarily fund parts of the Medicare Advantage program until after the election in November. Left alone, the Obama adminstration has instituted massive cuts to the Medicare advantage program that millions of seniors will see in October when they update their yearly coverage. The administration wants to steal $8 billion from their slush fund to keep these benefits going until after the election so that the seniors in America will not know that the Obama administration has severely reduced their benefits.

  The GAO released a report calling for an end to this useless, and unintended use of government money. Congress needs to act and stop this political attempt to buy more votes in November. It is disgusting. It is political. It is wrong.

   The U-3 unemployment rate dropped from 8.3% to 8.2% during the month of march. The U6 unemployment rate dropped from 14.9% to 14.5%. The U-3 rate is the official unemployment rate, which is the proportion of the civilian labor force that is unemployed but actively seeking employment. The U-6 unemployment rate counts not only people without work seeking full-time employment (the more familiar U-3 rate), but also counts "marginally attached workers and those working part-time for economic reasons."

Japan is lowering their corporate rate down to 38% tomorrow, going below the 39.2% rate that American corporations pay.In case any of you people do not know this already, corporations pass their taxes onto the consumers, so that 39.2% rate they are paying, you are actually paying.

  Can America survive in the international market when our companies are forced to pay much higher taxes than companies in other countries. Until our rates are lowered, we will continue to have companies refuse to bring thier money back to America from their overseas operations.

  The Supereme Court heard arguments today on the constitutionality of the individual mandate requirement in Obamacare. Lawyers for the Obama administration tried to argue that requiring everyone to buy health insurance isn't outside the perview of the the constitution. Justices Kennedy, Scalia and Alito asked most of the questions, mostly asking what kind of a precedent this will set, if this law is allowed to stand.

  Most of the pundits are saying that today was a very good day for conservatives, and people who know that this law is unconstitutional. The Obama administration is already in CYA mode as they are trying to spin the possability of losing the case as a good thing for Obama. Those of us in the real world know better.

  Albany county Legislator Tim Nichols of Latham, will be introducing legislation on Monday that would ban the sale of tobacco products in all pharmacies in Albany County. His excuse for his legislation is that pharmacies are supposed to be places people go for "good health" reasons, not bad ones. let's say for arguments sake that Mr. Nichols is correct. By that logic, he should also be proposing legislation to remove all candy bars, potato chips, and all of the other products in the pharmacy that promote "bad health" for the customers that go there.

  I don't know Mr. Nichols. I do not know if he is a big-time liberal like so many of the other members of the Albany County Legislature, who seem to think that it is their job to be our nannies. What I do know is this: Cigarettes and other tobacco products are still legal in NY, at the moment. Pharmacies are businesses and the job of a business is to make money. The Albany County Legislature has no right mandate what legal poducts a business can and cannot sell.

If Mr. Nichols was a man of his convictions, and if he really believes that cigarettes are so evil, he should propose legislation to outlaw the sale of ALL tobacco products in Albany County. But he will not. Because Mr. Nichols and all of his liberal/socialist friends at the Albany County Legislature love all of the tax money that they receive from the sale of these "evil products", and that is all that really matters to these people how represent us.

  Andrew Breitbart may be gone, but the Obama Administration is still feeling the heat of his investigations. The people at Brietbart.com released a video that the left has been trying to hide for years. The video show Obama speaking at a rally for Harvard Professor Derrick Bell. Bell was one of the most vocal, anti-semitic, racists, in the tradition of Jeramiah Wright, and other radicals that Obama has denied being a part of. Bell was taking a leave of absence from Harvard, trying to force them to hire "A woman of color" that meets his ideological standards.

  The fact that this video has been concealed by the MSM for years is more evidence that they are derilect in their duties, and have been assisting the Obama administration in it's constant effort to control the flow of information in America. This practice was perfected in early 19th century Germany, the Soviet Union, and other Oppressive Regimes that have tried to control their people. Hopefully, as more videos come out in the coming weeks, the MSM will start to do their jobs again.

   The Obama administration set a new monthly record in February by running a $229 billion dollar deficit. To put it into perspective, the Deficit for the entire year of 2007 was $160 Billion under President Bush. That was the last year before the economy collapsed and is probably the best point of reference for comparison.

  When is this administration, and the congress for that matter, going to start taking this runaway debt and deficit seriously? Don't be fooled by the reports that the recession is over. It may be over on paper, but in the real world, things seem to be getting worse. Gallup just released a report today stating that unemployment is now at 9.1%, up from the 8.3% that this administration was celebrating just two months ago.

  By keeping pressure on Congress and the White House, we may one day get them to finally see what the rest of us already know:

We cannot continue to be a prosperous country while we are spending ourselves into economic oblivian.

While President Obama is out decrying corporations outsourcing jobs, Senator Schumer is lobbying our State Department to outsource our oil needs and deprive out of work Americans with job opportunities.

  Maricopa County's Sheriff Joe Arpiao spent the last seven months investigating the validity of President Obama's birth certificate and Selective Service card that have come into question. Several residents of the county asked the sherriff to launch the investigation after the White House released what they called Obama's official birth certificate late last year.

  Some of the findings of the investigation are as follows:

1. The "official" birth certificate released by the White House last year is a forgery. After detailed analysis they found that some of the dates, stamps, and coloring were added to the document. Anyone who has worked with PDF documents will tell you that when you scan a document into a PDF, it comes in as one layer, like a picture. When you create a document, it has multiple layers, like sheets that lay on top of each other. The Obama birth certificate's dates and stamps were on different layers. What this means is that they were added to the document after it was created.


2. Obama's Selective Service registration card is a forgery. The date "1980" on the form was forged by someone who took one of the post office stamps from 2008, cut off the 08, and then inverted it to apply it to the form.


3. While attempting to find out if Obama's family had come from Kenya after his birth, investigators acquired microfilm from the INS. this microfilm had the records of everyone who entered America at the time of President Obama's birth. For the year 1960, there is no microfilm from August 1st to August 7th. The government has not responded to requests for the missing microfilm, which coincidentally is for the time period when Obama's family would have entered America if he were indeed born in Kenya.

  All of this information may seem far-fetched and the ramblings of a crackpot. I am a little off of my nut, but I am only reporting the results of an investigation conducted by one of the most respected law enforcement officers in the country. To read more about the investigation and to see some of the evidence, You can click here. Below, are two of the videos demonstrating portions of the investigation.

  Gas prices are rising almost daily in America with gas in Albany hitting $4.09 at my local Mobil Station. I literally went for a 10 minute ride on Saturday, and when I wet by the station, thye had raised the pirce from $3.95 to $4.09. A 15 cent increase in ten muniutes. I am beginning to think that I am in the wroing line of work.

  This week, the Obama administration has started it's PR campaign of trying to convinve America that there is nothing that they can do to lower gas prices. They are saying that we are living in a "GLobal Market" at the mercy of OPEC and the the Wall Street Speculators. This is about as far away from the truth as you can get without falling off of the face of the earth. The Obama ADminstration has been making a well-planned effort to prevent the production of oil in America. Their Environmental protective views are guiding their policies, and Obama and alot of his Administration actually favor higher gas prices.

Some of the Obama administration's talking points are twisted if not, flat out lies. A few examples are:

• Oil production in America has increased under Obama. This is true, but not due to any action by this administration. Drilling on private land has increased enormously. North Dakota is leading the way in drilling. Unemployment has dropped to 3% there, and all of the drilling being done is outside the purview of the federal government. Drilling on public land has decreased under Obama. Also, President Bush lifted the drilling moratorium and the results of his actions are why production is increasing at the moment.


• Oil leases under Obama are down 50% and drilling permits are bogged down taking years to be okayed, when it used ot take months. The reduced leases and permits are directly effecting the price of oil by the speculators. Speculators look at how much oil there will be in 5 years, not how much oil there will be tomorrow.


• The Keysone pipeline decision is the fault of Republicans. This argument is just laughable on so many levels, further discussion isn't even warranted.

  If we had started drilling in ANWR when President Bush had proposed, we would be reaping the benefits of those actions today. One of the Democrats main arguments against drilling in ANWR was that we wouldn't see anything for seven to ten years. Well Democrats, it is now 7 to 10 years later and gas is now $4.00 a gallon.

  There was a Republican debate in Arizona last night. You would think that the debate would be the place for CNN's John King to ask the questions that concern Americans. Some of the ones that I would have asked are:

• What would you do to lower gas prices, which are currently at record highs?


• Would you appoint a special prosector concrerning the "Fast and Furious" gun trafficking fiasco?


• Do you think that it is a good idea for President Obama to reduce our nuclear arsenal by 80%, which he proposed last week?



  Does CNN refuse to ask these questions because the answers will be detrimental to the Obama adminstration, or are they just incompetent. After all, it was John King who chose to open the last debate asking Newt Gingrich about his ex-wife.

  It appears that the Republicans are caving in to the Democrats on the Payrolll tax cut extension. It appears that they are close to a deal that will extend the tax cut throughout the rest of the year with no means to pay for it. What this means to us is that we will add another $100 Billion to our nation's debt, moving us ever closer to the perverbial economic cliff, and burdening our children with paying for even more of our irrresponsible spendiing consequences.

  Payroll taxes are unlike any other tax, in that they are not actually a tax, they are a payment into an insurance fund, known as Social Secusrity, which we draw upon when we retire, or for other circumstances covered by law. The payroll tax cut is reducing revenue into this fund that is already paying out more money than it is taking in, and is forecast to be out of money by 2034. How much longer can we afford to deprive this fund of revenue before the effects are irreversible?

  The republican party ought to be ashamed of themselves for going along with the Payroll tax cut. I know, it is all political during the election year, but that doesn't excuse them from turning their back on their own principles. If I wanted my congressman to act like an irresponsible teenager with a credit card, I would've voted for a democrat. The republicans had better get their act together fast. How can you be the party of fiscal respnsibility, when you act irresponsibly?

I will leave you with this fianl thought:
Which party is goiong to be the one to have the backbone to finally end the payroll tax cut? I say, neither!

Last night, President Obama claimed that he was quoting lincoln when he said:

"We believe, in the words of our first Republican president, Abraham Lincoln, that through government, we should do together what we cannot do as well for ourselves."

The actual quote from Lincoln reads:

"The legitimate object of government is to do for a community of people whatever they need to have done, but cannot do at all, or cannot so well do, for themselves, in their separate and individual capacities. In all that the people can individually do as well for themselves, government ought not to interfere."

By omitting the second part of the quote, Obama changes the whole meaning of the quote. Lincoln wanted the government to be a last resort for people, after all other options have failed. Obama wants government to be the people's only option.

The Voter Fraud case in Troy is getting bigger and bigger as the weeks go by. To date, there are at least 10 Democrats who have either pled guilty, been granted immunity for their testimony, or have been indicted for their roles in forging absentee ballots and other crimes related to the elections in Troy, NY.

For a complete list of all the key players in the scandal, and you can view it by clicking on this link.

This investigation is being led by Special Prosecutor Trey Smith, who also happens to be a Democrat. The FBI, and the NYS Police are also involved in the investigation which has so far empanelled two Grand Juries, and has resulted in indictments and guilty pleas from no fewer than 8 Democrats.

The Questions that the people around the Capital region should be asking are as follows:

1. Are these crimes limited to the democrats of Troy, or are these tactics being used by Republicans as well?
2. Is this behavior limited to just Troy, or is it happening elsewhere, in places like Albany and Schenectady?
3. Are these illegal acts limited to absentee ballots, or our voting machines also being tampered with?

The residents of Troy, and the entire Capital Region, ought to be holding Trey Smith's feet to the fire. One of our most sacred rights has been stolen from us by the Democrats of Troy. They have in essence voided our votes, and tried to manipulate and control our election process. The people who are found to have been involved in these voter fraud actions, need to be procecuted to the fullest extent of the law. By giving these people a slap on the wrist will just be an endorsement of their actions and lead to even more voter fraud.

After the Albany Police finally broke up the Occupy Albany protests last week, one of the protestors posted a "wanted poster" of the Albany officer who pepper sprayed the crowd after they attacked him and his horse. That protestor is Bradley Russell, a professor at the College of Saint Rose, who is a supporter of radical left-wingers like Cornell West. Below is a link to the text of a statement from someone claiming to be Mr. Russell posted in the Times Union.

Click here to read his letter

Here is a video of Mr. Russell claiming that he isn't endorsing any violence against the officer. He just wants some of his friends to go to his house and bang on their love-drums.

In case anyone is wondering what Bradley Russell does when he is not sleeping in a tent on public land, his Linkedin page says that he is currently teaching our children at the College of Saint Rose. He has a Ph.D in Anthropology/Archeology, but apparently no education in our Constitution or the laws of the city of Albany.

Governor Cuomo broke his campaign pledge of not raising taxes today, by striking a deal with the cowards who sit in our State Senate and Assembly to revise most of the tax rates and add a new permanent rate for the the wealthiest of New Yorkers, essentially making the temporary millionaires surtax permanent. Here is a list of the new rates for the various income levels.

The new rates will be a 29% tax increase for the top earners in NY from the old rates. Would you like a 29% tax increase?

Since 2009, 20% of the millionaires in NY have moved elsewhere. How many more do you think are going to leave with these new permanent tax rates enacted by our incompetent leaders. As far as all of you people who are applauding this new tax plan, how long before you are the one on the receiving end of a tax increase? How many of you will get laid-off or not hired at all because the small business owner can't hire anyone due to the new higher tax rates?

The State of NY is a disgrace. The Albany County legislature is beyond being a disgrace. They are just pathetic with their new 8% tax increase that I will have to pull out of my ass to pay. Good thing that times are bad, just think how much they would raise your taxes if we actually had money.

Comments and Gripes

The Albany County Legislature once again proved that they are incapable of doing their jobs. They now want an 8% tax increase on the taxpayers of Albany to continue to fund their entitlement programs for those of us who won't or can't take care of themsleves.

The biggest financial burden Albany County has is the Albany County Nursing home, which has a $20,000,000 defecit this year. The County Legislature refuses to shut it down and save us taxpayers millions of dollars because they are beholden to the unions that provide the workforce that runs the nursing home. They are also under the delusion that it is somehow the government's, and by proxy, the taxpayers of Albany County, responsible to take care of these people. There are already programs in place,such as medicare, medicaid, welfare, and other programs, that we already pay for through other taxes, that can take care of any needs these people have.

The Albany County Legislature, in all of its wisdom, also left the door open so that they can vote themselves a nice pay raise this year. Meanwhile the rest of us, will have to suck it up and pay an extra 8% in Albany county taxes this year. These part-time employees, enjoy bloated salaries of $21,752, a pension system, and a healthcare plan. Not bad for a part-time job. We also have the largest County government in the state of NY at 39 members. We are the disgrace and the shame of NY politics.

Last night, the Albany County Legislature, voted to oveerride the states new 2% tax cap. This should come as a surprise to no one in Albany County. This legislature has proven time and time again, that they do not care about the financial situation of it's taxpayers, and they would rather take the easy way out, and raise everyone'e taxes, once again, instead of making the tought choices that they are overpaid for.

Our county Legislature just loves to spend money.

Herman Cain took 37% of the total vote in Saturday's Florida straw poll, beating the combined totals of both Rick Perry and Mitt Romney. Michele Bachmannn got 1% and it looks like her 15 minutes of fame is coming to a quick end.

Herman Cain continues to impress voters and it seems that the more people hear him speak, the more people he wins over with his charisma and intelligence. The MSM and even Fox news continues to write off Cain as an anomoly, but with ever-increasing poll numbers and support, how much longer can they affod to ignore the success story that is Herman Cain.

Me and my family live in the Pine Hills District of Albany, NY. We are on a quiet little side street with lots of trees and not a lot of traffic. I used to be happy to tell people where I lived and would recommend to people that they move to the neighorhood.

Well, that time has officially passed. Last night was the last straw for me. I had bought me a nice bike about 4 months ago to try to get in better shape and also to save a little gas money by riding to work every day. Well last week I put my bike on my porch and locked it up like a lot of people in Albany do. When I awoke this morning and went to load my bike onto my car, it was gone. Some low-life dirt bag, came onto my porch during the night, cut my chain, and stole my Bicycle. He not only stole my property, he violated my home. The fact that someone can just do this to people at will is what really upsets me. It makes you think "IF they can do this, what else can they do?"

Apparently, this is not a unique experience for Pine Hills. One of our neighbors had their outdoor furniture stolen a few months ago, and numerous people have had their vehicles vandalized and broken into. When it gets to the point where you have to make a conscious effort to make sure that everything you own is locked up and hidden from view, just so that you don't have it stolen, it is time to re-evaluate where you live. I will not live like I am in a prison. I will not let my daughter grow up in a neighborhood where we do not feel safe in the day, or at night. Apparently, the Albany Police Department seems to be satisfied with just filling out reports and blowing off all the crimes as just "immature acts by the local college kids." There is no excuse or justification for committing crimes. I don't care if it is a Sophomore at the College of Saint Rose, or if it is a crack head from the Arbor hill section of Albany. I have had enough.

So, since Mayor Gerald Jennings, the Albany Common Council, and the Albany Police Department will not, or cannot address the crime problem in the Pine Hills section of our city, I will be selling my home as quickly as possible and getting the hell out of the entire city. I will be yet another former resident of Albany, joining the many others that have fled due to the declining standard of living in neighborhoods.

President Obama came out with his new plan to save our economy this weekend. Raise Taxes. Our President is putting forward the "Buffet Rule" which he says will level the playing field between the middle class and the so-called rich people of America. Under the plan, the capital gains rate of 15% will be raised on the richest of investors so that they will be paying their "Fair Share", whatever that means.

Obama has been President for almost three years now and the best idea he has to save our economy is to raise taxes. If passed, these new taxes won't even put a dent in the deficit, will hamper job growth, and will bring us even closer to the double-dip recession that more and more economists see in our not-so-distant future.

The Replicans and Tea Party representatives in the House of Representatives will not allow this bill to pass. That is because they know what most of America knows:

We do not have a revenue problem, we have a spending problem!!

NYS Senator Kruger trying to pass law banning Ipods while walking

NYS Senator Carl Kruger is introducing legislation in the NYS Senate on Wednesday that will make it illegal to be listening to an I-pod, or texting while crossing a street in the state of New York. Senator Kruger's Facebook page can be accesssed by clicking the link. Send him a message and let him know that we do not want his nanny state legislation, we want him and his friends in the New York state legislature to fix the state budget, lower our trax burden, and create jobs in NY. That is what they were hired for, not to try to slowly take away all of our freedoms.

Senator Kruger is a Democrat, so it comes as no surprise to me that he would want to punish the majority of the population just bacause of the actions of a few people in the minority who probably can't even tie their own shoes. In my opinion; let them get run over. We have been interfering with the process of natural selection for way too long now. There are way too many stupid people walking the streets. I really don't mind them, but now they are starting to hurt those of us with a brain.

It is being reported that the children of illegal aliens in Los Angeles county, California are costing taxpayers $600 million per year in social servics. This does not even cover the cost incurred by the illegal parents of these children.

Are we, as taxpayers going to continue to bear the cost of our governments failure to secure our borders, and is it not time to amend the 14th amendment to our constitution, so that children of illegal aliens are not granted automatic American citizenship.

This is not a race issue, so all of you liberal haters can just shut the hell up. It is a law enforcement, national security, constitutional, and economic issue. If you fail to realize that we cannot continue to be a dumping ground for every illega alien, without restrictions, than you are too simple to even breathe the same air as those of us who actually use our brains.

House of Representatives votes to repeal Unconstitutional Healthcare law

Last night, the house of Representatives voted to repeal the unconstitutional Healthcare law by a vote of 245-189. Three Democrats voted with all of the Republicans in an attempt to get rid of a bill that was passed by a congress, that didn't even take the time to read it, before voting on it.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid says that he will not bring the bill up to the floor for a vote. God forbid, he should bend to the will of the poeple of America. There are other procedural measures that the Republicans are looking at to try to force a vote, but don't hold your breath.

The next step for Republicans is to pass new laws that will actually lower healthcare costs in our country. They will also do their best to prevent any tax money from being used to fund the unconstitutional Obamacare law.

Biden compromises with 3 year old...
Is this how they passed Obamacare?

Yesterday, as vice president Biden was attempting to swear in one of the incoming senator's, a three year old ran off with his notes. The video below shows how Biden dealt with the problem.

The video is cute on it's face, and shows that even Joe is human, but as I watched it, I couldn't help but think that this is the same way that the Democrats got Obamacare, and numerous other unwanted bills, through the congress. It goes something like this:

1. Offer your oppostition a bribe.
2. If he takes the bribe, everyhing is fine. If he doesn't, go to step three.
3. Distract him with slight of hand, and then just take what you want.
4. Convince your opposition that he got the better end of the deal

Ding, Dong the witch is dead...
Nancy Pelosi hands gavel to John Boehner today.

Today is the day that House majority leader Nancy Pelosi hands her gavel over to incoming Republican John Boehner. Let's hope that the gavel will be used as a hammer for the next to years to help undo all of the liberal anti-capitalist damage that has been done to our Republic under the leadership of the Democrat Party.

69 years ago today....
The Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor.

Take a moment today to remember the men and women who died in the second largest attack on our country. Never forget that we are never truly safe, and that we must always remain vigilainte against aggressors.

Federal government shutting down websites without due process

The Department of Homeland Security is using newly instituted federal powers to shut down websites that it sees as violating federal copyright laws, without due process. Most of these sights are used for illegally downloading music and movie files, and others are sites that illegally sell imitation products, like fake handbags,football jerseys, and other trademarked items

Everyone in America probably agrees that these sites are skirting the law and should be shut down. The problem is, do we forego our constitutional protections to do so. The unilateral decision by DHS to shut down these sites violates the 1st, 4th, and probably the 5th amendments to the U.S. Constitution. If we allow our government to violate the constitution as it concerns these websites, what is to make you think that they will respect your rights when they want to come after something that you hold dear.

Our Constitution is the law of the land. To allow our government to circumvent it in the name of expedience, is both dangerous and wrong.

Albany County proposes Sales tax icrease to 8.5%

The Albany County Legislature, with all of it's wisdom, has sent a request to New York State, asking permission to raise the sales tax rate in Albany county from 8 to 8.5%. This comes on the heels of tax increases from every other blood-sucking government beurocracy in New York.

Here are some of the areas where New York leads the rest of America:

• local and state taxes...Highest in the country.
• Medicaid payments...Highest in the country.
• Worker's Compensation rates...Highest in the country.
• Business friendly environment...Worst in the country.

Albany County passed a "temporary" 1% tax increase from 7 to 8% in the 1980's. This tax increase was never rescinded, and now they want to increase it even more, instead of doing the job that they were hired for. The legislators for Albany County are suppposed to wisely spend the money that is provided to them by the taxpayers. They are not suppposed to spend money that is not provided to them by the taxpayers. When their is not enough money to pay for expenditures, that means that you are spending too much, and need to make spending cuts, otherwise, you are derilect in your duties.

With a 10% increase in Albany School taxes, a proposed 15% increase in Albany county taxes, and increases in Albany city taxes, where do you legislators think that we have the extra money lying around to give to you. We are still in a recession, whether or not the government wants to admit it, and signs of inflation are starting to appear as food manufacturers have reported that they are raising prices anywhere from 5% to 15 % on their products.

This proposed tax increase will do nothing more than drive me, and everyone that I can convince, to shop outside of Albany county. It will be harmful to everyone, but mostly to Big-ticket businesses, like car dealers in the area. This will be one more reason for businesses to stay the hell out of Albany County, NY. If you want to promote Growth, and a businesses friendly environment, why don't you try lowering the sales tax rate to 7%, where it should have been after the two year "Temporary" increase. That would go a long way to helping Albany become an area where people would actually wnat to live and work again.

I would love to hear what everyone thinks of this new proposal. You can e-mail me at Mickey@albanyconservative.com or you can click the $quot;comments and gripes" link below.

Is this our future if we do not make the changes necessary to save our Republic?

Hold your Legislators accountable

Posted...18 Oct 2010

Does anyone in New York remember the Senate shutdown of last year. That was the day that New York government went from dysfunctional to pathetic. The Republicans launched a takeover of the Senate, and the Democrats responded by shutting off the lights and locking the doors. Legislative business in Albany came to a standstill while the legal argument went before the courts.

Not much has changed in NY since then. Our Legislature is still dysfunctional, and they continue to raise taxes and spend money recklessly, without any signs of remorse or guilt. Those of us in NY bear witness to a govenrment that has done everything in their power to make sure that they are not held accountable by the people that they represent.

Assemblyman Jack Mceneny, collects a pension and a paycheck, for the same job. He "retired" from the assembly on December 31st to collect his pension, and then "started" his new job as assemblyman the next day, drawing both a pension and a paycheck for the same job. He is screwing New Yorkers to the tune of $180,000 per year. He will be the first one to tell you that his actions were legal, and they were. But they are also indicative of the kind of behavior from our representatives that has filled us with disgust and contempt for a system that is seriously out of touch with it's constituency.

Here in Albany, Mayor Jennings has just proposed a city tax increase of 7%. That is on top of a voter-approved 3.8% school tax increase that somehow morphed into a 10% increase. Also we are facing a 15% Albany county tax increase thanks to our county Executive Michael Breslin, the brother of Senator Neil Breslin, who was responsible for locking the doors and turning off the lights in the Senate Coup.

Now is the time for all New Yorkers to rise up on election day and vote out these incumbents, who feel that they are no longer held accountable by the people of New York.

This is one of the best patriotic songs that I have heard in a long time.

President Obama's Summer of recovery has lost another 39000 private sector jobs this week. This comes tow days before the unemployment figures for October are released, and many experts are saying that the unemployment rate is going to rise to 9.7 or 9.8%.

This news should open a few more independent and liberal eyes to the fact that Obama's stimulus bill is not doing anything to stimulate our economy. Things are continuing to worsen, and the only way that we are going to turn our economy around is to let more of the people who create the jobs in this country, keep more of their money, so that they can create the jobs that are needed for the millions of people who continue to look for work.
