This government and indeed, this State, is all about more. More taxes. More spending. More debt. More unemployment. More crime. More corruption. More misery.

As long as Democrats are running the show, one thing is certain: we can continue to expect more: more of the same.

U.S. District Judge Linda Reade issued a ruling on October 27, 2010 denying a motion for new trial for Rabbi Sholom Rubashkin – a former meatpacking executive who was convicted in 2009 of financial fraud following an immigration raid on his family’s Postville, Iowa company, known then as Agriprocessors.

Understanding the past is critical to understanding the present. Attention to history slows the racings of contemporary life. It lends context to confusion and provides the lens which sharpens our perspective.

So let us survey the plains of the past. Let us gather ourselves about the hearth of lore and legend and perhaps be enlightened.

The three Bochurim being stopped and ticketed Sunday night.

Yesterday was a beautiful day in the city. The sun was shining bright, the leaves were whirling in the street corners, and the birds were chirping. Everyone was doing their errands, be it on Kingston Ave. or Fulton Street in Manhattan. I even talked to a very friendly officer as I was going into the subway.

So why does everyone feel and think that there is so much bad in the world? Why today did I not feel or see any of it? Well the reason is because there is lots of good in the world, but there are a bunch of problems too. Just like people, a person is mostly good but they can have a couple of problems which can make a relationship not work. The same applies to a job, for example being a police officer. For the most part they are doing their job, but there are some glaring issues as well.

GOP Gains May Cloud Mideast Picture

By James D. Besser for the Jewish Press
Republican wins could produce domestic gridlock, uncertainty for Obama peace plans.

WASHINGTON, DC — A big Republican victory on Nov. 2 could bring the Obama administration’s troubled domestic agenda to a dead stop — but it is unlikely to do the same for its faltering Middle East peace efforts, which some Israelis argue favor the Palestinians.
