It is not a recovery unless by recovery you mean that we have been put into a coma…for reasons you are free to speculate on yourselves.

“Household incomes are still down 4.4% since the recession ended four years ago…”

“…the inflation-adjusted median household income remains $2,380 below where it stood when the Obama “recovery” officially started in June 2009.”

“Census Bureau’s Current Population Survey, show that incomes fell more in the year after the recovery started than it did during the recession itself. And household incomes have basically flat-lined ever since.”

“The most vulnerable groups — blacks, Hispanics, female-headed families and the young — have fared far worse under Obama than everyone else.”

More?  Sure.  And keep this in mind.  New Hampshire US Senator Jeanne Shaheen (the Part-Time Employment Queen) has been in office over exactly the same period of time as Obama, so I made some editing adjustments to the following list from Zero Hedge (About the economy under Obama) to give it some New Hampshire flavor.

We have long argued that there is a great deal of hate being manufactured by the left.  It is their stock in trade, if not as kindling for the fires that drive them personally, then as accelerant to divide the nation into bits they can then pander too in pursuit of power.  Well here is what may well be a premier example of Democrat hate at work.

Since last February there has been an ongoing debate about Race and Hate at Oberlin College after a series of…well, see for yourself…

Daily Caller:  One of the two students removed from Oberlin College earlier this year for allegedly circulating virulently racist, anti-Jewish and anti-gay messages around campus  is an ardent leftist and committed supporter of President Obama, The Daily Caller News Foundation has learned.

I’m working on re-associating myself with Twitter.  As part of that commitment to wasting more of my time–in all honesty I have collected a decent news feed through my Twitter acquisitions–sometimes I wander off onto other peoples streams to see what they are sharing in 140 characters or less.

I found this very entertaining.

It’s an old UPS tag line, What can Brown Do for You, but now it has so many meanings I’m not sure where to begin.  Maybe we’ll just go with this:  UPS is a Teamster shop, their pilots and their mechanics are all in unions.  Unions pushed hard and spent much in blood and treasure to support the lie of ObamCare, and to support Democrats who would vote for it, defend it and implement it, and now the reality of what this all really means  has come knocking on their door.

So we spent trillions more and added 7 trillion to the deficit, and all we ever really need was a Job Corps Center?

“The Manchester Job Corps Center will equip low-income youth with the skills they need to be successful in the workplace. The result will pay dividends for not only these young people but for our economy as a whole,” Sen. Jeanne Shaheen said.

By now it might be apparent that there is a small but determined group of people in NH who are fed up with voter fraud – and who are able to do something about it. “Thinking Outside the Ballot Box” is what I call it, for lack of a better term. And today we offer up on the slab another dissection of a young political career.

Janice Rottenberg, Come On Down!!!

Oh Janice, you naughty thing, voting from State Representative Cindy Rosenwald’s single family home in Nashua, while you were up here with Organizing for America (A.C.O.R.N.). Did someone tell you it was ok to slip onto New Hampshire for a political campaign, stay at the home of a NH State Representative while she was running for re-election, and steal a vote from a real, taxpaying citizen?

Last week in a post titled “It’s kind of like Constitutional Carry” I reported an observation from that weeks GrokTalk! in which Evan Nappen noted: the New Hampshire State Supreme Court Ruling (On what the definition of a loaded gun is in RSA 159:4) got us closer to Constitutional carry.

My actual words were, “…we are happy to report that with a bit of a twist, New Hampshire now has, sort of, kind of, …almost, constitutional carry.”

It is not ‘Constitutional Carry,’ which is the right of any law abiding citizen to carry and conceal a loaded weapon with a chambered round, without a government issued ‘permit,’ but it is a great step in the right direction and here’s why.
