CANDIDATE CLINTON

CANDIDATE CLINTON PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN DOOMED TO FAIL. SHE PLAYS POLITICS WITH LIVES OF OUR TROOPS. NOT WORTHY OF BEING COMMANDER AND CHIEF.

Analyze this. Hillary says she won't vote to cut funding for U S troops in President Bush's Iraq surge operation, but she will vote to cut aid to the Iraqi government.

Now, that puts our troops at risk, as they partner with Iraqi troops in efforts to secure and stabilize Baghdad neighborhoods and Anbar Province.

If Hillary doesn't support Iraq's government and military, she does not support our troops.

Yesterday, Hillary and upstate city mayors put their hands out for more federal aid while Bush bashing for personal and partisan reasons. Beggars can't be chewsers- biting the hand that feeds them is not a sound tactic . Hillary and the upstate mayors would best serve the interests of New York residents by supporting the President's efforts to succeed in Iraq and Afghanistan, and by supporting our troops who serve there, so that we may live in freedom and safety.

The primary responsibility of Senator Clinton and the upstate city mayors is to do all that they can  to avert future terror attacks in New York State. Do not play politics with the lives of our troops or the lives of our citizens.

Hillary and the upstate mayors (all Democrats) can begin by opposing Governor Spitzer's pledge to give NYS driver's licenses to illegal immigrants.

BEGGARS CAN'T BE CHEWSERS

BEGGARS CAN'T BE CHEWSERS

Senator Hillary Clinton and Upstate city mayors are looking for more federal handouts, according to today's media reports. 

If they really wanted to help their consituents they would stop the Bush bashing for self serving, partisan and personal political gain. Biting the hand that feeds them is not a strategy likely to succeed.

Be nice to President Bush. Support him in the War on Terror, and above all support our troops who are serving, in Iraq and Afghanistan so that we may live safely and free here at home.

NO DRIVER'S LICENSES FOR ILLEGALS

NO DRIVER'S LICENSES FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS IN NEW YORK

It is being reported that Governor Eliot Spitzer intends to approve New York State Driver's licenses being given to illegal immigrants.

To do so would be unethical, would flaunt the rule of law, and would aid and abet foreign terrorists who seek to destroy America.

Just say no to driver's licenses for illegals, Governor Spitzer.

Hurricane Threat To New York

HURRICANE THREAT TO NEW YORK

 

  • According to Queens College Professor Dr. Nicholas Coch, a deadly hurricane in New York is 'inevitable. The only question is, Are we prepared?'  He said this in the New York Daily News article 'A 'cane could drown N.Y.C.' about the potential of a large-scale hurricane hitting and submerging Manhattan. There is precedent for such a disaster:  From the 1821 hurricane which cut Manhattan in two to the ’38 hurricane which came within 75 miles of Manhattan.  The city’s Office of Emergency Management has even plotted, block-by-block, how a hurricane would flood New York City.

    IS ANYBODY READY? 1/08/07

    IS ANYBODY READY TO SURVIVE EMERGENCIES/DISASTERS/TERRORIST ATTACKS?

    New York State government? The City of Albany or other local governments? Neighborhood associations, churches, synagogues, schools, health acre providers, businesses, employers? Individual households?

    DO NOT BET YOUR LIFE ON IT?

    State government and Congress are in transition as political power has shifted and reorganization takes place. This process takes time and leaves us particularly vulnerable in the event of disasters and/or terrorist attacks.

    Day One has come and gone. Politicians and the media appear focused on petty politics, political power struggles, and special interest group agendas; all of which will be immediately irrelevant when disasters or terror attacks occur. Then it will be too late!

    Each of us is responsible for our own survival and that of our loved ones.

    Do not delay another day in becoming informed about what you and your loved ones can do to increase the odds of survival in the event of disasters or terror attacks.

    For starters, here are a few useful websites. Consult them, download useful information, share it with family, friends and neighbors who may not have computer access/skills. Above all, apply what you learn NOW.

    U S Homeland Security     www.ready.gov

    American Red Cross         www.redcrossneny.org/

                                                www.redcross.org/services/disaster/beprepared/

    Albany County                   www.albanycounty.com/

    Encourage local media to publish articles, information, present programs, psa's and newstime spots relating to preparing for and surviving emergencies, disasters and terrorist attacks.

    Watch this site for more information and comments.
