Bob Confer

CONFER: Gun control and the Mexican excuse

Two weeks ago, President Obama met with Mexico’s Felipe Calderon and Canada’s Stephen Harper in Mexico for a get-together of North America’s leaders. Since the inception of this annual meeting during the Bush presidency in 2005, many have rightly believed that the heads of state have used this powwow to sell-out the rights of their peoples in an effort to foster North American unity while forsaking national sovereignty.
This year’s meeting was no different. ....more>>

  • CONFER: The federal assault on farms
    As the recession presses on, in conjunction with the overblown fear of global warming, we witness the government continually changing the rules of the game to doing business.
  •  CONFER: Random thoughts from Bob
    Here are a few things that have been on my mind…. A few weeks ago President Obama visited Nellis Air Force Base where he applauded their 140-acre solar array. He said we need more solar energy systems just like that one.
  •  CONFER: Your cell phone as income
    Cell phones have become a ubiquitous part of the workday. Many businesses give them to their sales and service personnel so they can be in constant contact with their coworkers and customers.
  • CONFER: Monserrate and Espada: The GOP’s new best friends
    I’d like you to meet Hiram Monserrate and Pedro Espada Jr. They are the new faces of the Republican Senate in New York state, Democrat turncoats who were adopted by the GOP to help flip the balance of power in the legislature.
  •  CONFER: The significance of Scouting
    What do Gerald Ford, Neil Armstrong, Walter Cronkite, and William DeVries have in common?
  • CONFER: Tax freedom day
    April 25, was a big day for the working person. A holiday of sorts, it was Tax Freedom Day in New York.
  • CONFER: Charity is no easy task
    We’ve heard time and time again that giving back to the community is such an easy task. It may be for some folks somewhere, but it’s definitely not that easy in New York state.
  •  CONFER: Upstate becomes powerless
    The New York Power Authority’s mission hasn’t changed much through the years.
  •  CONFER: The economics of electricity
    Every year dozens of people ask me about our electrical expenses at Confer Plastics. They know we’re a heavy power user (it takes a lot of juice to melt down plastic) and, with our proximity to the Niagara River, they assume that we save a lot of money by operating in Western New York.
