A Country in Crisis: To all those who fear the country is going in the wrong direction, that government is too big, too expensive, way too intrusive, and that unless we change course soon and retrieve our founding principles, we will continue to court calamity for ourselves and for generations not yet born, ask yourself:
The following Letter to the Editor, in honor of Veterans Day, November 11th, 2014, submitted by Queens Village Republican Club member, Fred Bedell was published in the Queens Ledger and Queens Tribune.
Congressman Steve Israel is “joined at the hip” to President Obama. A vote for Steve Israel is a vote against the State of Israel. It’s a vote for the development of Iran’s nuclear weapons; it’s a vote for the burgeoning menace of ISIS; it’s a vote for the rearming of Hamas in preparation for another war against the Jewish state; it’s a vote for continued chaos and bloodshed in the Middle East without a coherent strategy in sight. The national security of the United States and the State of Israel are at stake here.
Freedom isn’t free. The barbarians are at our gates, in our city’s streets, in our Operas, infiltrating our government and crossing our borders. We have no choice but to fight back by rousing our fellow Republicans and Conservatives and all those who have awakened, and get them out to the polls to vote for Grant Lally, Rob Astorino and all our Republican statewide candidates on November 4.
“The people of our great nation are compassionate, caring and considerate. They will rise up and take our nation back. It begins with you, an individual. One vote counts, one vote matters, one person can change the course of history. Election Day is November 4th, 2014 and your nation is calling upon its citizens to set the course of history straight once again. “
The following is the third letter in a debate series in the “Readers Write” section on the Opinion Page of the TimesLedger Newspapers.

In his rebuttal to my letter on political divisiveness, Robert LaRosa proves my point that partisan rancor has intensified since the 2000 presidential elections. My message to Mr. LaRosa and the small vocal minority, who still feel cheated after 14 years, is to move on. Bush vs. Gore is an outdated political dispute involving a complex Supreme Court decision that would go on forever if the hapless souls who felt embittered by the outcome of our Democratic process had their way, as well as the dubious claims that voters were stricken from the roles which were later proven false. My point was, instead of continuing a campaign of malice to destroy the opposition by falsely accusing the GOP of racism, extremism, a “war on women,” and an “illegal takeover of the White House,” as Mr. LaRosa declares, let’s move on. It’s a distraction and we’ve got bigger fish to fry.
The revolting New York Post cover from Thursday Oct. 2nd shows Governor Andrew Cuomo kissing the ring at the altar of Al Sharpton. Cuomo, Mayor de Blasio, and other Democrat political big shots left in the middle of the Catholic Church’s annual Al Smith Dinner to see the man they really worship, Rev. Al Sharpton who was celebrating his 60th birthday the same night. It is sickening but it’s true. Falling all over each other to sing Sharpton’s praises, Cuomo declared: “He’s no longer just New York’s Al Sharpton, he’s the nation’s Rev. Sharpton – and the nation is better for it.”
“We need to go out and wake up our local Republican and Conservative friends and neighbors. They must not stay home on November 4th. We need to energize and encourage them and even drive them to the polls if necessary. It’s a person to person, block by block education and awareness campaign.”
