Democrat NH House Passes Medicaid Expansion 186-155

No surprised.  Cindy Rosenwald’s amendment to add Medicaid Expansion without hearings or debate passed the NH House 186-155. I suspect that there were people registered as Republican that voted with the majority, but these would be the usual suspects.  The R’s who vote with Democrats most of the time anyway. Now it is on the …

Faith In The “Non-Falsifiable Hypothesis” of Global Warming Leads to “Settled Science Gore-tex”

Back in 2008 NH Democrat Jeanne Shaheen scared people with promises that Global Warming was real and that it would put an end to New Hampshire Winters–and our touristy-like winter wonderland of commerce.  It was settled science.  I heard that, didn’t you hear that? A few years later, after 15 years of flat or declining …

Our Recovery Is So Good…We Demand You Extend Unemployment Benefits

Snow and cold are a sign of global warming.   Income is a sign that you don’t pay enough taxes–unless you are a Democrat or in entertainment.  Opposition is a sign that you are a racist, a misognyst hater unless you oppose self-responsibility, affordable government, and low taxes (Republicans, or the TEA Party).   The Affordable …

“Just take the issue off the table” Applicable to NH? Sure! “GOP leaders said they still hope to find a compromise”

No one would ever mistake General “Blood N Guts” George Patton (“L’audace, toujours l’audace”) with an Establishment Republican.  Why?  Maha Rushie nails it: What they ought to do, the Republicans ought to just say, “Let’s just extend ’em for the rest of the year and put it off the table.” That’s the Republicans’ usual plan. …

President Obama complains about Income Inequality. How about your Cronies?

We all know that President Obama hates rich people (“I do think at a certain point you’ve made enough money“) and he sees “income inequality” as something to be done in additional to use as a political campaigning club.  Instead of trying to lift up the poor, he’s all about redistribution in a retributionist fashion …

Notable Quote – John Hayward

The real “fundamentally transformation” of America – it’s formerly “Can Do!” spirit! President Obama today declared that rallying behind the unemployed, by extending their emergency benefits again, is “who we are as Americans.” It was better when we were builders, explorers, and entrepreneurs. But our national identity is now defined by the food stamp, the …
