Defeat McCarthy
To the Editor;
Time has a way of fleeting, the days, months, years and seasons blending into each other. This past winter dragged on with little hope in sight. If you find summer has its problems, please think back to snow, ice and the long dark days.
Our trustees have done an excellent job dealing with issues which would have baffled ordinary men. There seem to have been few permanent solutions as nothing becomes easier. We deal with problems one after the other and I believe it is not in our nature to quit. We must come together to decide the future of this Village we love so well and, at the same time, focus on state, national and international issues. We are surrounded by those who wish to see us perish.
Our country is in as rotten a shape as I have seen since I was a boy. I am angry because over a period of years we have allowed it to happen. “The only thing necessary for evil to succeed is for good men to do nothing.” Oh yes, I know. “The American people wave the flag, beat the drums and play the bugles.” Sadly, the term “American people,” no longer rings in my heart.
The famous author who lives in Garden City had this to say through a character in his latest novel: “The American People are Corrupt, Decadent and Afraid.” So, What do you believe?
In November 2011 we will go to the polls to vote in the most important election of our lives. We, the voters in the fourth C.D. have the obligation to defeat a politician who has never represented us and who is absolutely unresponsive. This election is not about party affiliation. If you judge it necessary to defeat the incumbent of the party you support, do so. Vote for the candidate you believe will work to help us to get out of the mess we have created. As always, the ultimate responsibility lies with us.
Ms. McCarthy has thrown in with the Clintons and Obama. Heady stuff. Continuing McCarthy in the House is not to our benefit. At the very least we must force a political balance in Washington. Placing the political power and control in the hands on one party, any political party, is a disaster in the making.
Now is the time to cut the legs out from under Obama by denying him the control and support of the three parts of our government. We must first win in 2011 and then go on to win again in 2012.
Unless Obama resigns or is forced out before his term ends, he could be the presidential candidate in 2012. I believe the Democrats will risk revolution and will not allow Obama to run in 2012. I also believe the deal was cut in 2008, “One term for you, Obama, and then out. It will be Hillary’s turn in 2012.” (Although too horrible to contemplate). There is not a shred of difference between Clinton and Obama.
I will endorse a candidate to run against Mrs. McCarthy. He must first win in the Republican primary in September. His campaign will soon kick into high gear and I promise that you will learn much about Frank Scaturro that you will like. Please support him with your vote. Elect Frank to our House and once again, as played by Gary Cooper, Mr. Smith will go to Washington.
Frank is not the candidate of the Republican Party bosses. He is his own man, not a party hack. This should make him all the more attractive to you.
My mission is quite simple- defeat McCarthy, elect Frank Scaturro to the House and then on to 2012. At stake is the future of our country. We have made horrendous mistakes, perhaps fatal mistakes, but it may not be too late to rectify them.

About Frank
Frank Scaturro is a Republican candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives in New York’s 4th Congressional District. Frank believes our nation is at a tipping point, and if we do not turn things around, we could face many more years of decline. That is why he is offering the voters of Nassau County a real choice for principled new leadership that will finally represent the people.
As a principled new voice, Frank will work to make our Federal government accountable to the people again, reign in out-of-control spending, and reduce a crushing federal tax burden that hurts Long Island citizens and businesses.
Frank Scaturro was born in New York City in 1972 and raised in New Hyde Park following his family’s move to that community in 1973. His father, who had emigrated from Italy as a boy, was self-employed in a commercial air conditioning and refrigeration repair business for several years. He later became the supervisor of maintenance and operations at Bergdorf Goodman in New York City and then held a similar position at Chaminade High School in Mineola. His mother studied physical therapy at Nassau Community College and worked near home as a secretary at an insurance agency and several law firms. Read More
