Bummer sounds like he is just begging NYC to go Republican. They might even get a more-than-RINO mayor if this keeps up.
Now if he will cut every other department by 27%, he might must get a little respect. Go Obama...do it again, and again, and again. Do it with Pakistan, the PA, ALL across the board..cut...cut.
WASHINGTON INSTITUTE.org (POLITCO): "Preparing for the Next Terrorist" by Matthew Levitt (SNIPPET: "Michael Downing, deputy chief for counterterrorism and criminal intelligence with the Los Angeles Police Department, has noted that while U.S. counterterrorism efforts have greatly improved when it comes to information about foreign terrorist threats, homeland intelligence collection "remains inadequate."")

THREATS WATCH.org - RapidRecon - blog: "...in a World Defined by Jihad" by Jay Fraser (SNIPPET: "Fighting terrorism in the new World as defined by the jihad requires different thinking. Is it profiling to make it more difficult for people of certain suspect countries to become a naturalized American? Shahzad provides an answer to that one. Given the asymmetric threats and tactics employed by our enemies, our International & counterterrorism policies need to become more aggressive and proactive. It may not make everyone happy, but our peace and safety could well require the will to take "irregular steps" against known threats. A few final thoughts... "If you aren't pre-emptive, you could be pre-empted." So, a concern over political correctness could get a lot of Americans killed. Our Founding Fathers never contemplated having to deal with a Global Jihad. Lastly, as we learned in Times Square last weekend when Duane Jackson, a Vietnam veteran saw something and alerted law enforcement, if you see something that "Doesn't look right" report it.")

I think Obama is a muslim and communist.
So what did Gotham City do to deserve this? This isn’t your generic Congressional pork we’re talking about.
...and BTW, we’re letting them build a mosque within throwing distance of you guessed it....
GB show...
The World Trade Center Towers have not yet been re-built, but there is one building right across from ground zero that’s on schedule to open soon: it’s a mosque. Hey if you want to build a mosque there, whatever, go for it - but what has people really upset is that the dedication date is set for (you guessed it) 9/11/11. We have American kids getting tossed out of school for wearing American flag shirts on Cinco de Mayo (a Mexican beer holiday) because they were being insensitive. But it’s totally cool to open a mosque right across the street from ground zero on 9/11?
What’s Up Chuckie? Schummer gets what he deserves, and so do all the NY putzes who voted for him
That’s very smart of him. He’ll carry New York in 2012, so why care?
Maybe Obama WANTS the city to be attacked. I would give him excuse to declare US martial law, something GWB, with all of his faults, had the strength not to do.
They balked at having the terror trials. Embarrassed the big zero. Can’t let them do that without punishment.
He doesn’t care about putting Americans at risk.
....Never mind that [New York City] suffered far more than anywhere else on 9/11 — and today remains Target No. 1 for jihadists....
That explains it all.
obama, also known as Muhammad Obongo, IS a jihadist!!!!
This is a gift forcing Patterson and Bloomberg to raise taxes to “cover the shortfall”. Said taxes will, of course, be approved as critical to the security of the city and the state. NY will never turn red, so this isn’t a risk for BO or the Dems.
Lord knows where all that money will end up going as it sure wasn’t being used for homeland security any way.
We are well on our way into interesting times. I wouldn't be so confident in conventional wisdom.
Looks like Chucky, Bloomie, Nadler, et al have taken one for the team — right up the old wazoo.
Two thoughts:
1. No bad deed goes unpunished.
2. Couldn’t happen to a bigger gaggle of morons.
And the damn GOP can’t find two decent candidates to run against these Senators??????
Wonder what Obama is really giving them under the table?
The Republicans are in cahoots with them.
Sure it is. What makes you think any of that money would be spent wisely? It’s all a giant con.
