Like Father, Like Son?

In the aftermath of Charles Barron's announcement of his run for governor and the formation of the Freedom Party, MSM has predictably missed the issue. The issue is what do Black voters, who have reliably voted Democrat for the last 50 years, expect to receive in exchange for their loyalty? During this year's elections, are Blacks expected to fall in line, and vote Democratic, because they have no choice? Should they have no expectation of parity, equitable distribution of resources, fair contracting opportunities, and policies that respect, not abuse, those voters?

Statement by Senator Rev. Rubén Díaz, Sr.

“Let me set the record straight once and for all.

“Senator Kevin Parker’s use of obscene language directed toward me did not
take place ‘member to member’ as he claimed.

“It happened in the Senate Chambers, publicly in full view of other
Senators and several Senate staff.

“First Kevin Parker used an obscenity and then he accused me of being a
liar when he suggested that the conversation took place only between the

For Immediate Release:June 22, 2010Contact: Office of Assemblyman Lancman: Jane Carey (301) 775-9956              Office of Senator Klein: Gwen Rocco (718) 822-2049/(410) 440-5808

 “Access to Justice in Lending Act” Passes Both Houses of Legislature
When Signed By
Governor, Legislation Will Level the Legal Playing Field for Homeowners
Facing Foreclosure by Allowing Successful Borrowers to Recover
Attorneys Fees Against Banks
    Assemblyman Rory Lancman (D-Queens) and Senate Deputy
Majority Leader Jeff Klein (D-Bronx) announce passage of the “Access to
Justice in Lending Act” (A.1239/S.2614)
by both houses of the legislature.    Virtually all mortgage agreements
require borrowers to pay attorneys fees to lenders who foreclose on
their mortgage, but borrowers don’t have the same contractual right. 
As a result, few homeowners are able to retain attorneys in foreclosure
proceedings – most default or try to represent themselves -- even
though many homeowners have valid defenses to foreclosure and could
save their homes with adequate legal representation.  To add insult to
injury, these homeowners then have the banks’ attorneys fees tacked on
to the overall amount they owe the bank, pushing desperate homeowners
further into debt.  This bill creates a reciprocal right to attorneys
fees for borrowers who successful defend against foreclosure where the
mortgage agreement gives such a right to lenders, and is modeled on an
existing provision of the law which give tenants the same reciprocal
rights to attorneys fees in residential leases.

MacArthur Park (McChrystal Blew Persuasion)

RICHARD HARRIS (or DONNA SUMMER): I will take my life into my hands and I will use it
I will win the worship in their eyes and I will lose it
I will have the things that I desire
And my passion flow like rivers through the sky…
…I'll be thinking of you
And wondering why.

MacArthur Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet, green icing flowing down...
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, no!
Oh, no
No, no
Oh NO!!
