Bye Bye Olmert

Israeli P.M. Olmert will step down. This is a long time coming. Sen. Obama or Sen. McCain may be dealing with Benjamin Netanyahu. It looks like Bibi can come back and watch out you Palestinian hooligans if he does. Am Yisroel Chai!

Vive Sarkozy!

People criticize French President Sarkozy for liking Sen. Obama. We should be grateful that we finally have a French president who is pro-Israel. Maybe, this will cut down on the anti-semitic acts in France.

Ludacrous is Ludicrous

What kind of jerk is this Ludacrous? Spell it correctly fool, especially since you are ridiculous. How dare you say that John McCain should be paralyzed. What kind of moron are you? If you don't like McCain, don't vote for him. Idiotic remarks like this will only help Sen. McCain as people are edgy regarding Sen. Obama. It has been said that this is Mr. Obama's election to lose. Having people such as this imbecile Ludacrous talk out will accomplish this. Ludacrous, shut your stupid mouth. You'll set back civil rights by 50 years if you keep this up.

Troops to Start Coming Home

Happy to hear that the troops may start coming home from Iraq. Despite this week's bombing, the President announces this. Is this another ploy to elect John McCain president? You have to wonder.

New Way to Go

This 2008 presidential election may very well produce Vice Presidential nominees who are better qualified than their respective candidates at the top of the ticket.
The tickets of both Truman-Barkley in 1948, and Clinton-Gore in '92 and '96 both proved that geographic balancing of the ticket may no longer be the thing to do.
Let's see how it all plays out in November.

Fiscal Irresponsibility

Everyone is praising N.Y. Gov. Paterson for his fiscal responsibility. If our governor is as sincere as he claims to be, he would immediately impose a freeze on both commercial and apartment rents.
Everyone was woefully quiet when the Rent Guidelines Board approved the increases this past June. These increases were excessive.
Remember when President Nixon imposed his wage and price freeze in 1971? Mr. Nixon also froze rents. None of our current crop of politicians will do this as they're in the pockets of the real estate industry. Shame.

Gas Explosion In Queens Apt. Building

You're doing a fabulous job, Kevin Burke of Con Ed. Have you met former FEMA director Michael Brown? The both of you would have so much to talk about in the field of mismanagement and incompetence. Of course, our N.Y.C. mayor insists that you're doing a good job.
Everyone was at that building. There has been no gas there since June 11th. 15 minutes after Con Edison left the building, boom! What goes on here? Who is running Con Edison? The Key Stone Cops? The nerve of this utility collecting an additional 22% increase from its subscribers. We ought to get back 50% forwhat we have to put up with. Could you imagine if this were the school system? Bloomy and the rest of the gang would be jumping all over teachers demanding accountability.
Mr. Burke should submit his resignation. With his probable stock options, he'd make out like a bandit. Joel Klein should be made the CEO at Con Edison. He'd literally be in the dark regarding what to do, but at least we'd get him out of the school system.
