Hour One:
Jack Kimball from the Granite State Patriots came on to talk about this past week's Tea Party event at the State House on Wednesday - we listen to his reading of the NH Tea Party Coalition's Citizens' Pledge (video here of the speeches; more to come - The Citizens' Pledge is also after the jump and we encourage you to read it, download it, sign it, and stick it on your 'fridge to remind yourself come voting day!). Part 1 Part 2
Michael Kitch from the Laconia Daily Sun has been doing a bang up job on reporting on the State's attempt to steal "the excess" monies from the Joint Underwriting Association - simply put, a fund financied by the premiums by healthcare providers. If the providers are successful on blocking this raid on this fund, the State has to go back and redo the budget due to this "loss" of $110 million. Part 1 Part 2
Hour Two:
Amil Imari returns to the MTNP airways to discuss the happenings in Iran over the mullahs' theocratic ways to steal the Presidential election away from the people (imagine that, they can count 10s of millions of paper ballots in a couple of hours and declare Mahmoud Ahmadinejad the winner. We talk about how brutal the regime is to its own citizens and the stories around it. Part 1 Part 2
The guys talk about the US House of Representatives pass the "Tax on all Americans Who Use Energy" bill - and the ramifications of what will happen. Nope, the gang takes the stand that this will NOT make us energy independent, it will NOT create jobs, and engender prosperity.
It WILL, however, make China and India much wealthier. We also talk about Carol Shea-Porter canned release. Part 1 Part 2
