New York’s Legislature Steals $2.75 Per Pack of Cigarettes »

I’ve been busy lately–really busy–hence no words of wisdom on this blog for the past couple of weeks. During that time, a breathtaking development has occurred–more of our freedoms have disappeared.

Mayor Matt Ryan Raises the Gay Pride Flag — Again »

Once again, as he does each year, Binghamton Mayor Matt Ryan presided at raising the so-called “gay pride” flag over City Hall yesterday. From the City’s official press release on this, here are some of Ryan’s remarks:
