With Gov. Cuomo’s Support, New Yorkers Urge Lawmakers to Pass ‘Medical Aid in Dying’  .  The Hippocratic Oath’s modern version – with all of the advancements and scientific changes since Hippocrates first saw the need for an oath –  states in part:  “Above all, I must not play at God.”  If one must not “play at God” what right do legislators have to allow – and if they refuse, one knows they will be sued and their career destroyed – them to participate in the death of a patient by partaking in the medical aid in dying (MAID) bill?  Enough of this madness.  Doctors and medical professionals save lives, they do all they can to keep dying patients as comfortable as possible and they must not play at God an oath they take freely.   Again, Governor Cuomo is on the wrong ethical side of this debate.

We have their attention!  Here is some press coverage of our press conference on Saturday in Onondaga County.  here and here. Unfortunately, for all New Yorkers’, Gov. Cuomo is far more interested in maintaining his progressive credentials than the safety of New York’s residents.  Help keep up our momentum: sign our petition here  and don’t forget to forward to your family and friends.  Thank you.

The democratic controlled legislative Houses are on the same ideological tracks the Governor is traveling on; or has the Legislature dragged the Governor to their ill-conceived ideals.  Either way, the safety of New Yorkers’ is at risk.

NY’s medical marijuana program is just shy of 100,000 and Senator Diane Savino says, “We should be twice that.”  When did Sen. Savino get her medical degree?  Why does Sen.

The New York Sun had an excellent editorial  on the unbelievable bill the NYS (Democratic controlled) Senate passed yesterday allowing the state tax commissioner release Mr. Trump’s tax return to one of three Congressional committees.

Have the majority members of the democratic controlled NYS Senate even read the US Constitution?  The U.S. Constitution’s Fifth Amendment contains a Double Jeopardy Clause, which says that no person shall “be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb.”  A Bill passed by the democratic controlled NYS Senate , yesterday, would only allow state charges to be brought against a pardoned individual with direct ties to Trump, either through his family, their work on his campaign, or their work in the White House.   How can this bill survive a legal challenge?  When did the NYS Senate become a body that seeks to use political retribution on its “enemies” instead of a body that seeks to protect its citizens with sound solid policy?  The answer is obviously: January 1, 2019!

Every once in a while, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, shocks the Left with a decision they never expected.  Tuesday night was one of those times; Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals sides with White House over asylum policy. 

For those who do not watch CNN, we missed a “debate” that was posted yesterday where a CNN contributor – former NYC Council Speaker — actually said ‘when a woman gets pregnant, that is not a human being inside of her,’ and went on to say that Rick Santorum – also a CNN Contributor — was distorting facts.  Both were appearing on Chris Cuomo’s Prime Time where Chris Cuomo sided with Christine Quinn.  Quinn and Cuomo kept attacking Santorum because of the Roe v. Wade decision which is the law of the land.  (It isn’t as if the US Supreme Court never made a really bad decision and overturned itself. )  Watch the segment here ; it will be a stark reminder on just how far the pro-abortionists’ have degenerated.

One would think this Grandmother  would have watched Frozen enough times by now, that she would learn to just Let It Go.

Senator Elizabeth Warren should be reading this article  to truly understand the basis of how and why impeachment is called for in our US Constitution.  Calling for impeachment is political and was included in the US Constitution to protect the balance of power between the three branches of government.  However, Senator Warren has no basis to call for President Trump’s impeachment as President Trump has not committed a crime.  Her actions are purely political and completely misleading

Moving from New York to Florida saves much more than just taxes. 

The NYS Senate is poised to pass S.221-A today and you should know it continues Governor Andrew Cuomo’s need to put convicted felons on equal footing as those who have never broken any law nor done anything the least bit detrimental to a fellow human or four-footed furry critter.  The Bill they are planning on passing lifts the lifetime ban on jury duty for convicted felons who have completed their sentencing.  Think about that for a moment:  a person who has served time in prison for breaking a (or many) law(s) will now be able to sit in judgement of another person accused of breaking the law.  I wonder how many hung juries will be the result?  A 10% increase, 20%, maybe even a 50% increase, costing taxpayer’s additional money for retrials.  What about the stress on the victims when they have to relive the terror of the crime again due to a retrial?  Or what if the DA declines to try the suspect again and he/she walks free and continues to commit crimes.  There is no doubt that people deserve second chances and should not have to wear a scarlet letter around their neck, but in saying that, a convicted felon on a jury is not what those who signed the Magna Carta calling for a “jury of their peers” meant.   Our 6th Amendment gives the suspect many rights, including an impartial jury; the likelihood that a convicted felon on a jury will be impartial is zero.

Why is the NYC School Chancellor, a person whose only responsibility is the education of NY City’s children, so bent on diluting the standards of specialized schools in the name of diversity ?  If his reasoning is followed in the sports world, every professional sports team would have a diversified team with many players who are unqualified to play.  Ultimately, people would no longer go to games, once the competitive edge was lost.  Competition is good, it raises the standards, competition, whether in education, sports or life itself, makes the world a better place.  Parents, Mr. Chancellor, know what is best for their children.

When your taxes are out of control and a major city is the homeless capital in the nation (and your representative just happens to be the Speaker of the House who is more concerned with protecting illegal immigrants) is it any wonder that California’s population growth is the slowest in recorded history?

Finally, some good news is being reported by Zack Fink:  No One’s in a Hurry to Legalize Recreational Marijuana in New York   Let’s hope it is Zack’s sources are accurate, then again, a lot can change between now and when session ends, especially when King Cuomo supports recreational marijuana.

Here is another elected official who is completely misguided.   It is a sad state of affairs when elected officials have no understand or respect for the value of lives.   Each and every person conceived has value and the strength to overcome circumstances thrown their way, history is full of people who changed the world despite the fact that they were “unwanted.”  Alabama State Rep. John Rogers (D) is facing justified fierce backlash for his remarks, he also needs prayers to understand why his remarks are so completely out of step with society.

Did you see this over the weekend?    Innocent victims murdered in cold blood, now the bleeding-heart liberals controlling the NYS Legislature feel they should be released from prison? It is becoming so absurd, why have any laws or prisons at all?  After letting Judith Clark out of prison and the likelihood of having this pass, the families who had the lives shattered, the children who grew up with out parents, the spouses who lost their loved ones and can only stand by their graves instead of having then stand next to them at important events, how do you explain to them, that these cold heartless people will be able to live and enjoy the benefits of  freedom?  Any legislator that votes for this proposed bill should be voted out of office at the next election.
