Senators, I am against same sex marrage,God made it clear it’s between a man and woman. I think the Democrat’s have it completely wrong forcing this health care bill on us and they will pay in next elections. Stop the disgusting way N.Y. poloticians are acting. It is disgracful to watch and hear about,these crooks in Albany greasing each others palms and bribing each other for different position. Mainly the Democrat’s. Please save us from all these tax increases. I can’t afford it anymore. I my soon have to move from the state I was born in because I’m getting taxed out. A registered Republican and Voter.
Hi Gordon,
Thanks for taking the time to post to the MYD blog. We Manhattan Young Dems believe in the separation of church and state, and also believe in equal rights for all. Marriage equality, in addition to the extension of ALL other rights afforded heterosexual couples to LGBT couples, is something we passionately believe in and will continue to fight for.
As for politicians in Albany, as you will have noted from our coverage, we are as disgusted by the self-serving actions exhibited by many pols (both Democrat and Republican) in our state’s capitol as you. On that point at least, we can agree.
Best,
Emmy
Al-Qaeda may be little more than an on-going psychological operation against the world. It is easier, after all, to panic a populace by revealing an organization with a defined hierarchy. Giving someone a face to hate or a name to fear is easy, and we can identify with that. People aren’t difficult to dupe; life bears that assessment out on a daily basis.
But take a look at the evidence. Al-Qaeda has consistently been observed as a playground for Western intelligence, and it serves the needs of those who want to dominate the Middle East. Who benefits from that arrangement? If al-Qaeda was looking for legitimacy, wouldn’t they stage some raids that don’t benefit their enemies?
The American people have been fed a steady stream of lies for many years. As we consider what we’ve been told about war with Iraq and September 11, so is it time to examine everything, even the evidence surrounding al-Qaeda. As you’ve read, it could be as real as Abu Omar al-Baghdadi. Don’t believe the lies….our government is corrupt, corrupt, corrupt…and thank God, He is watching all these individuals who think they are so clever, but are really held captive to do evil and will therefore, be subjected to the worst punishments both here and now, unless they turn from their satanic allegiences…you think this is a joke? You have no idea what goes on behind the scenes…..more horrific than Chucky anyday.
