Welcome to New York, Mr. President. Now go home and leave us alone. Please.
When he brings his war against Wall Street here tomorrow, Barack Obama isn't coming to praise Gotham. He's coming to bury us.
We're not dead yet, but no thanks to him and his policies. His assaults on New York ought to be counted in the NYPD crime stats. They're doing more damage than a year's worth of stickups, and still the hits keep coming.
Under his initial plan, cops and the feds already would be locking down the Foley Square courthouse area to give the precious Khalid Sheik Mohammed his constitutional rights. Nary a New Yorker wants the 9/11 trial here, but Attorney General Eric Holder insists the city "is not off the table."

He's a Muslim ... just finishing the job his bros started 911.
Goodwin voted for Obama and has buyer’s remorse. Expected a centrist.
Please don’t put Obama at the same level as one of the greatest movies ever made. And the “family” would view these folks as thugs, just like they view the politicians in Chicago. Politicians are not men of honor or respect.
Goldman was one of O's biggest contributors. All the Progressive Fascists, in DC and out, want this perpetual bailout bill passed. They know if they pass this bill they can keep spending the money in DC and keep gambling with our money in New York.
Sow the wind...
Remember the Godfather’s famous speech. (it’s in the book, not the movie.)
What's wrong with that? It seems to be a justifiable position.
It's extremely sad that many, many Americans view NYC as a traitorous foreign occupation, pumping out wave after wave of HATRED for the rest of the country.

Yes. Unfortunately, New Yorkers brought that on themselves with their 'better than you', the 'world revolves around Times Square', arrogant attitude. But ironically once New Yorkers leave, they don't want to go back. They see how FUBAR that place really is. And how wrong they were about 'fly over country' and 'Midwestern Hicks'.
I've personally known two Professionals who fit that bill to a tee.
One was Chief Mech Engineer assigned to Chicago for a major Building Project. Initially he was your typical, 'my poop didn't stink' New Yorker. But after 18 months in Chicago he didn't want to leave. And when you went to his office in Sears Tower to see him' he'd be walking around with his shoes off --something he'd never consider in NY. AND he lost 'the attitude'.Maybe the 'arrogance problem' started, or grew 1010 due to that dumb 'NY, NY' song; 'If you can make it there you can make it anywhere'.The other was a Chief Estimator for a Construction Trade, originally in Chi, 'temporarily' for a Project. But when it was complete he didn't want to go back. He found a job in the Chi area and stayed. When we first met he was the same, he 'knew everything', and we were 'the hicks'. I told him something like 'Okay, but its you who talk funny, not us'. We became friends and he stayed in the Chi area for about five years. Then construction hit a dead end here and he had to go back to NYC. He dreaded that.
Bullcrap.
The center of power (i.e., money) is shifting from NY to DC. Whatever you think of NY you cannot believe this is a good thing.
LOVE NY?
TAKE I-20 EAST!
Dear New York, you got what you wanted when you elected Obama and all those other dems. So...F#$% YOU! Assholes.
