The Ronald Reagan Award, repealing Health Care, getting the ” cons” out of Congress. I was definately in the right place for the Queens County GOP Fundraiser.

Being a political junkie myself it was indeed a night of bold ideas and fresh blood. Come this November there is quite a bit of political real estate in play. The newly elected Dan Halloran who came into the City Council after a David and Goliath type race with Kevin Kim had the honor of giving Congressman Peter King his Ronald Reagan award. Mr. King a very humble man when it comes to his own achievments but a frieght train of conservatism when it comes to policy. In a time where our Attorney General winces at the phrase “Radical Islamic” it is quite refreshing to hear the lucid bare knuckle voice of Congressman King. Always being on the Right Side of the issue especially concerning Terror Trials and Miranda rights for Terrorists there is no mincing of words. He is the ranking member of the Republican Party at the Homeland Security Committee and that fact does give me and alot of other New Yorkers comfort.

Congressman Gary Ackerman of district 5 faces a newcomer after 14 terms. Mr. Ackerman who has embraced this White House and Congress with all it’s recklessness and radical ideology is certainly the epitome of the urgency for ” True Change”. The Hope and Change of the Obama Administration was absolutely what the Doctor did not order! and speaking of Doctors his opponent is Dr. James Milano a heart specialist with an agenda of his own…. to restore this country back to it’s former glory and prosperity. Enough with this Nanny State and its’ cradle to grave mentality. You want that? go to Greece. Things over there a glimpse of what could happen here if not addressed immediately and I believe the good Doctor can respond to the will of the people unlike our present leadership and guide us back to our founders who warned against this type of soft dictatorship.

Above you will see an interview with Dr. Milano at the GOP fundraiser.

Another shining event of the night was Senator Marty Golden my fellow Irishman from Bay Ridge Brooklyn representing district 22. His rallying cry was one of the highlights of the evening. Never shying away from the spotlight Marty hit it out of the park. Between the Tea Parties and the feeling of mistrust in the present leadership in D.C. the Republicans and Independants feel the winds of change are in the air yet they seem careful not to peak too early and lose that very important momentum that it would take to reclaim majorities in both houses.

These are very extreme times we live in and I believe what happens this November will forever impact the rest of our political and personal lives.
