President Barack Obama’s leadership has been disastrous
It’s been a gradual process,
but we welcome former New
York Times columnist Leslie Gelb to the realization that President
Barack Obama’s leadership has been disastrous for this country. Last October
Gelb wrote, “While Obama inherited rather than
caused many of the world’s current crises, his habitual complacency and
passivity prevent him from mitigating or resolving them.”

‘Islam(ic)’ and ‘terrorism’
With all the publicity in
world-wide publications reporting on Islamic terrorism, the Obama
Administration, and its leader, Barack H. Obama in particular, just can’t
associate a connection between the two words, ‘Islam(ic)’ and
‘terrorism’. In their small world of personal intelligence and actual
brains, Islam is known only as a “peaceful religion”.

Southington Environmental Problems Continue!
FRANKSMITHSAYSNB
EDITORIAL:
Recent news
account citing the EPA ( Environmental Protection Agency) continue to oversee
removal of contaminants from its landfills.
The EPA has designated as Superfund Sites citing that the landfills have
been contaminated 25 five years ago.
Amazingly, it will take another 120 years before the town’s own wells
before they can be reopened.
Giving
reason for the city of New Britain to negotiate a reasonable contract for the
use of our Patton Brook well for the next 120 years since we still own it.
SLAMIST THREAT OVERSHADOWS OBAMA’S DOMESTIC SALES PITCH
Just as President Obama is hitting the campaign trail to sell
a reboot of his domestic policies ahead of next week’s State of the Union
Address, the threat from Islamist militants is again crowding out his messages.
Starting eight days ago with the deadly attack in Paris, the president has
struggled to gain traction for his calls for more spending, higher taxes and
new regulations. The Obama media strategy, on which its authors have been
congratulating themselves at length in the political press, is to roll out the
speech day after day to targeted geographic and demographic groups. This is not
unlike what we saw last year when Islamists in Iraq and Syria destroyed the
Democratic Midterm communications strategy and focused national attention on
concerns over the president’s foreign policy. The president’s campaign to avoid
lame duck status looks similarly imperiled.
"free” community college!
If you think college tuition is
expensive now, wait until it is free. Two years of “free” community college
sounds wonderful, even though some students who just graduated felt cheated
that they did not get it “free” and, in the name of fairness and justice,
retroactive reimbursement was immediately demanded.

911 Fear
Americans, when faced with
adversity, have always taken what was designed to destroy us, and turned it
into something that unites us. The attacks on September 11, 2001, were
designed to divide us, fill us with indecision, and encourage us to huddle in
the corner in fear.

Veterans Should
Vote In Primary
I am writing to remind all veterans of how important this upcoming Democratic primary election (New Britain-Berlin) is regarding veterans' issues and support of veteran affairs.
The Democrats have two individuals running for the office of state senator and I believe their military background is very important to all veterans and military personnel both state and federal.
Tom Bozek has served his military obligation and as state senator has supported all state veterans' issues. Meanwhile, we have Don DeFronzo who, at the time of induction, conveniently became a conscientious objector to avoid his military obligation.
Now I ask the question of anybody who served his or her country, who do you want to represent you? Bozek gets in the trenches, DeFronzo watches from the sidewalk while grandparents, mothers and fathers wave goodbye to their children going to fight the war against terrorism.
The answer is clear and I do not mean to deface anybody; the military must remain strong and all veterans and military personnel are faced with the decision to vote for the right person in the Democratic primary on May 21. This is our obligation. This is what we fought for.

The Common Council Leaders Must Decide.
FRANKSMITHSAYSNB
EDITORIAL:
In the event
the New Britain Democrats repeat The Trueworthy fiasco, with the majority of
the common council refusing to remove him from his council seat. And possibly
the same procedure that will apparently follow regarding the Susan Bielinski
removal; it will then assure the start of third party in the city to selecting
elected officials.
That will adhere to common sense and legal
responses protecting the city’s standing within the Connecticut communities
stopping the city from being laughed at as being idiotic.

Interesting Suggestion for the City of New Britain Residents to Ponder By A Reader of This Blog
Obviously electing a left wing loon like O'Brien
isn't a way to run a city, and electing a young girl certainly isn't working,
so maybe it is time for a charter revision to change the city from a strong
mayor to a city manager form of government. At least then the council can hire
a professional to run the city.
Mayor Stewart on The Attack
FRANKSMITHSAYSNB
EDITORIAL:
The city’s
audit gave our Mayor a reason to attack the former mayor, Tim O’Brien, claiming
that he left the city in grave financial danger which gave the opportunity for
the former mayor or his ghost writer to attack her father’s administration.
These
attacks doesn’t help New Britain especially when our citizenry voted to have
our so called elected officials to find the needed proposals and or solutions
of resolve.

John Boehner has promised over and over
John Boehner has promised over
and over not to fall into the status quo trap. He has promised over and
over not to give in to President Obama. He has promised over and over to fight
Obama’s illegal amnesty. He has promised over and over to give the Congress
over 72 hours to read bills. He has promised over and over to curtail the
spending that is sending middle class Americans down the proverbial drain.

King of the World’
Recurring theories that Barack
Obama sees himself as reigning ‘King of the World’ rather than merely U.S.
president are proving true—in Canada, of all places.
Canada’s next general election
will take place more than a year before the next presidential election, on
October 16, 2015, at which time Obama gets the golden opportunity to add the
natural resource-rich Land of the Maple Leaf to his fledgling ‘kingdom’.

President Ronald Reagan
President Ronald Reagan who
once famously told Soviet Union Leader Mikhail Gorbachev, “Mr. Gorbachev, tear
down this wall,” must be rolling in his grave.
America, through a branch of
the Michigan State Department of Natural Resources, now boldly and openly
celebrates the ideal of communism.
