When you think of a car which was born incredibly masculine, tough and high-performance, muscle car definitely suits best. Muscle cars were masters of drag racing in 1960’s up to 1980’s and were usually powered by V8 engine. The design of the classic American muscle car is concerned around power [...]
Barack Obama’s stand on Pakistan is the correct one. We should not be afraid to violate Pakistan’s sovereignty to achieve our will and our goals when it comes to counter-terrorism.
When he first made his controversial position regarding incursions into Pakistani territory to chase bandits and Taliban, he was ridiculed by [...]
Apparently the chorus of Judge Martini-detractors is growing in the wake of Sharpe James’ absurdly light criminal sentencing. On Thursday, long-time State Sen. Gerald Cardinale (R-Demarest) struck the right chord in an extraordinarily articulate letter addressed to all of the state’s daily publications. Cardinale’s use of imagery is simply haunting- [...]
It’s not often, that I get to commend a Democrat for a job well done. Having said that, I have never been above giving credit where credit is due in the rare instance that a Democrat actually gets something right every once in a while.
On that note, I [...]
Today, Assembly Minority Leader Alex DeCroce and the Assembly Republican Office issued a press release on the bleak business enviornment in New Jersey. Unfortunately, too many elected officials just don’t get it. Thankfully, there are some legislators that do, and I sincerely hope the components of the Common Sense Plan [...]
It’s an impressive feat to leave yours truly without accompanying commentary. Jay Webber is a repeat offender, as the Morris County assemblyman possesses a rare understanding of the problems facing New Jersey and the solutions required to right the ship. Webber’s underlying calculus should be simple enough for even the [...]
Steve Lonegan, Americans for Prosperity NJ Director, filed a lawsuit to stop the state from borrowing of $3.9 billion for school construction without voter approval. $2.9 billion will go towards building projects in Abbott districts. The remaining $1 billion will be distributed as grants to other [...]
Lt. Col. Repya has eloquently articulated what Americans are gradually discovering: Barack Obama has little interest in being our next commander-in-chief. The freshman senator from Illinois wasted little time in the U.S. Senate before exploring a White House run. Apparently, Obama has since found himself unsatisfied by the prospect of [...]

Voters consistently rank “shares my values” as among the most important criteria for selecting a candidate. Luckily for the voters of New Jersey’s 3rd Congressional district, State Senator John Adler just offered a window into his personal political philosophy.

China plans to conduct its first manned spacewalk in October 2008. The ESA (European Space Agency) is building a roving robot to land on Mars. India recently launched a record 10 satellites into space on a single rocket!

I joined the throng of movie-goers this past weekend to see The Dark Knight and, never being one to just let myself enjoy something mindlessly, I immediately began contemplating the parallels between Bruce Wayne’s world and our own. Batman’s fictional home of Gotham City has developed in the popular culture [...]
Governor Corzine is heading to Israel this weekend for trade talks with various Israeli leaders and businessmen. To be fair, most of New Jersey’s contemporary governors have visited Israel on “trade missions”. Israel is actually one of New Jersey’s top ten trading partners. However, the last governor who visited the [...]
In the 2000 election, we found out it was Dick Cheney around July 24. Joe Lieberman was chosen as Gore’s running mate on August 7, 2000. John Edwards was officially picked July 6th, 2004.
Being that today is July 13, I would have to say that we will find out the [...]

The messy fallout from The University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey’s recent high-profile scandals has spilled over into the Gloucester County freeholder race.
The Republican team has leveled serious charges against former UMDNJ Stratford Dean and Democratic Freeholder Warren Wallace, alleging that his recent anti-discrimination suit against UMDNJ [...]

In a time where uncertainty and scarcity are most prevailant in today’s society, New Jersey’s representatives continue to oppose common sense measures that bolster
American security. For decades we have known about the problem of oil. In the 60s and 70s we only imported 30% of oil and [...]
I want to give James Hogan some credit for this post, entitled “Running for Congress: The Realization that the Sabrin line meant failure”, that he posted on his blog on June 25.

“It is simply not for us to decide who should live and who should die.”
With those words, Speaker Joe Roberts celebrated the NJ Assembly’s 2007 44-56 vote to ban the death penalty. Contrast Roberts’ lofty rhetoric with his 85% positive rating from the Family [...]
As this year’s Presidential campaign remains in its formative stages, I can only keep asking my self the same question over and over again. Just how arrogant is Barack Obama? I even ponder the possibility from time to time that he could be doing it to see just [...]
In case you haven’t noticed the frequency of my posts have gone down as of late and there are a number of things I can attribute this to: summer classes (which already end on Thursday), a busy schedule, rebuilding the Monmouth YR’s, etc.
But the real reason is that I [...]
This is hilarious. Kudos to Rep. Thaddeus McCotter. He has decoded the rhetoric of the Democratic party.
“We use up words like “spiritual” so fast in this culture. Twenty years ago “spiritual” had a distinct meaning. But now there’s a lot of jack-off thinkers who just love to talk about the spiritual. And there is a lot of bogus — is “bogosity” a word? It [...]
President Bush, at his first media opportunity following the 2006 election, candidly admitted that the Republican Party had been “thumped”. While Bush never explicitly articulated a reason for his party’s defeat, the party faithful did not need to be reminded that the GOP had strayed from its core principles. In [...]
President Bush should appoint a US Attorney or a special prosecutor to investigate the Chriss Dodd Countrywide scandal. The Democrats always talk about how push has politicized the Justice Department, so he might as well politicize it. It is time to put the Democrats on the defensive.
And speaking of putting [...]

The “dream” US Senate Candidate that never was is back, this time with Republican activist Bill Spadea, in the launch of a new organization.
Crowley and Spadea, who are good friends, have joined forces to create “Building the New Majority“.

This is a great ad put out by the RNC a couple of weeks ago. It is basically Obama’s fellow democrats criticizing him on why he shouldn’t be President. For once I agree with Bill Clinton.
Enjoy!

During the 2007 Electoral Cycle, opposition candidates contested seats in less than half of New Jersey’s 40 legislative districts. The result? New Jersey’s well-funded Democrat machines have been able to focus their energies on fewer and fewer Republican hold-outs. Playing defense is proving to be a losing strategy for state [...]
I am a firm McCain supporter in this election. Obama scares me to death. Apparently, BHO dropped his public funding aide, claiming he’ll earn more than McCain will. We cannot let Obama win. McCain is the best for the job: he gas-tax holiday, his plan for drilling oil off our [...]
As if Barack Obama couldn’t be any more of a hypocrite, he has once again shown glimpses of his true colors.

“Come to think of it, that energy bill was the only time we’ve ever seen Senator Obama vote in favor of any tax break — and it was a tax break for the oil companies.”
[...]Republican US Senate Nominee Dick Zimmer released his first general election ad hitting liberal Senator Frank Lautenberg for not being able to solve and grasp our nation’s energy crisis.
The finale of what seems like a long and bizarre battle will happen tonight in Bergen County as the infamous County Committee members of the most crucial county in the state for deciding elections will choose who will lead the Republican organization for the next two years.
The reality is when [...]

Instead of stating why people shouldn’t support Bob Yudin, I’d like to expand on why I support Rob Ortiz for Chairman. I think it’s important to explain why I support someone so strongly with postives, instead of just saying it’s because Yudin brings so many negative.
They always say home [...]
In a tale of two counties I take an interest in, Monmouth County Republicans unanimously elected former Sheriff Joe Oxley as the new leader of the party after Adam Puharic stepped down to family obligations.

Here is Senator John McCain’s newest television ad:
It’s very simple: It’s about results, not endorsements. In the short time span Robert Ortiz has been Bergen County Chairman, Republicans won several key local races, the BCRO is out of debt and in the green, and Ortiz has worked hard to bring new groups [...]

For the most part, I’ve stayed far far farrrr away from the Congressional primaries in the 3rd and 7th Congressional Districts. Mostly because good friends of mine are involved on both sides in the 3rd and there are a number of quality candidates in the 7th that I would have [...]
The Record, the major newspaper in Bergen County, endorsed Dick Zimmer for US Senate today.
The endorsement, while not overwhelming, was a solid one:
New Jersey Republicans have spent much of the past several months defeating themselves in a quest to find an electable Senate candidate. State Sen. Joe Pennacchio [...]
In light of the recent appeals court ruling in California, with respect to the Pledge of Allegiance, the following recollection from Senator John McCain is very appropriate:

May be. While Murray Sabrin is currently running for the NJGOP nomination for the U.S. Senate, Sabrin’s ties to the Republican party are tenuous at best. Besides having run as a libertarian for governor, Sabrin has left the GOP twice, and he has been a staunch opponent of John [...]
