NYPD Picks up the Slack for the Federal Government

May 12, 2010 By Richard C. Young

NYPD Weighs New Posts Abroad – Joel Stonington and Sean Gardiner, The Wall Street Journal
In light of the inept federal response to 9/11, which was to invade Iraq, a country with no connection to the massacre, Ray Kelly and the NYPD have set up their own outposts in countries that foster terrorism, and in countries where coordinated efforts to prevent terrorism can be made. Ray Kelly and the NYPD are the best in the country at counterterrorism and should be a model for federal efforts. – Dick Young

The Price of Wind – Review & Outlook, The Wall Street Journal
Costly new wind energy projects developed to create a façade of environmentalism aren’t what the people of Massachusetts need today. The wind power initiatives will increase electric bills and cost the state’s electric customers $443 million. These costs come at a time when what they need most of all are lower costs. Businesses are hurting and higher electric bills won’t make the pain go away. – Deborah Young

The Way to Block Kagan – John Gizzi, Human Events
Mike Hammond lays out a six point plan to stop Elena Kagan from making it to the Supreme Court. It calls on the GOP to use all the political capital they have to protect the court’s integrity, and more importantly the constitution. – Dick Young

Question Time – The Editors, National Review
Elena Kagan’s nomination to the Supreme Court leaves conservatives with a perfect valve to allow a vetting of the president’s views on the constitution only six months before the mid-term election. Kagan is obviously of the same liberal ilk as the Obama fronted Radical Progressive Movement. Here view of the constitution resembles that of Cass Sunstein, who would add a second Bill of Rights codifying the RPM’s agenda of wealth redistribution. Republicans have the ability to filibuster Kagan, though they probably will not use it. Many of them believe this is the best nominee they’re likely to get from the Obama administration and they may be right on that point. However, they should raise every point of disagreement with Kagan, and if she fails to satisfy their questioning, the GOP should step up and block her nomination. It would be the right thing to do. Force Barack Obama to nominate a real moderate rather than someone who just doesn’t have a long enough paper trail to be pinned down. – Dick Young

Murkowski Resolution Update – Nan Swift, FreedomWorks.org
Without the passage of the Murkowski Resolution unelected bureaucrats will run roughshod over the rights of Americans. The EPA will be given the authority to regulate CO2 emissions, allowing them to cripple the economy through cap and trade measures not even passed by Congress. – Dick Young
