It took four years and a lot of intense lobbying, but New York state will finally provide funding for a low-income senior citizen apartment complex in the town of Southport.

Because, you know, all that empty Senior Citizen Housing in Elmira doesn’t really get the job done.

The Elmira man accused of shooting someone in the face will spend 15-and-a-half years in state prison.

One more scumbag off the streets, a couple of hundred left to go.

ROBERT NOVAK: Obama’s Dodge on Handguns:

While Scalia’s opinion for now saves Obama from defending a court that had emasculated gun rights, one inconvenient truth confronts the candidate. He has made clear that as president he would nominate Supreme Court justices who agree with the minority of four that the Second Amendment is meaningless. Would he want a reconstituted court to roll back the D.C. decision when the Chicago case gets there?

Yes he would.
