Marines are less worthy than Mariah Carey

When I first heard about the Empire State Building dissing Mother Theresa, I heard the explanation that they do not honor religious figures and if they had honored Mother Theresa then what would stop the Scientologists from demanding L. Ron Hubburd being honored. Then I looked at who else has been honored, as well as who has been snubbed. Red China, Mariah Carey (as part of the promotion of her CD release), Wizard of OZ (as part of a DVD relaease), have all been honored with a night or more ESB lighting love. While Mother Theresa and the United Marine Corps are not in Empire State Building Lighting Partners' humble opinion as deserving as Mao, Mimi, & munchkins.

Loyalty is fleeting

Just received a mailer that coincides with this email former Chief of staff of disgraced and expelled State Senator Hiram Monserrate, Julissa Ferreras endorsing Monserrate's opponent, Jose Peralta, in the special election March 16th to fill the 13th Senate Seat that Monserrate was expelled from as well as attempting to recapture.

Can't wait to vote against the domestic abusing, tax-payer robbing, party flip-flopping, scumbag that is Hiram Monserrate on March 16th. If you live in 13th District find out your poll site by calling 311 or visiting the NYC Board of election poll site finder: http://gis.nyc.gov/vote/ps/index.htm

New CBO Cost Estimate for Health Care Legislation

$597 Billion to cover the all Americans under proper health insurance, hmm seems pricey but worthwhile for about the same price as the Defense budget every but instead designing new and expensive ways to kill people.

But wait it gets better. The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office's price tag of $597 Billion isn't for one year but the cost through 2019! That's rigtht $59.7 Billion cost per year to ensure health insurance for 310 million Americans. That makes the cost per person $192 a year, $0.53 a day! Seriously what cheapass person could possibly be against throwing their pocket change so that every man, woman, and child have universal access to affordable health care.
