Comments made by New Hampshire Democratic Chairman Ray Buckley became the focus of a press conference by congressional candidate Jennifer Horn and Debbie Lee, a mother who lost her son in Iraq and who has been supporting Republican candidates in New Hampshire.
According to Lee, last night after a debate between U.S. Rep. Carol Shea-Porter (D-Rochester) and former U.S. Rep. Jeb Bradley (R-Wolfeboro), Buckley told Lee that she was "being used" by Bradley’s campaign. Earlier that day Lee had endorsed Bradley. "The statement he made to me was disgusting. He said at that point that I was being used, that my son’s sacrifices were being used by the campaign," said Lee, who is a member of the group Move America Forward.
Lee also said that Buckley told her, "We’ve all lost things."
The conversation between Buckley and Lee took place after Natalie Healy, who lost her son in Afghanistan, confronted Shea-Porter about why Shea-Porter had not returned her phone calls and letters.
Jeb Bradley will join us in studio and we’ll have Debbie Lee and Natalie via phone. We’ll hear their stories firsthand. Jeb has called for Chairman Buckley’s resignation. We agree. We’ll also discuss the real story behind the faulty national-level VFW endorsement of his opponent (yep- the cider-sippin’ peacenik-lovin’ antiwar lib) and what the locals have to say about this wrong from on high…

Doug & Skip discuss a few things, including a complaint by a NH citizen against Democratic front groups that was filed with the NH AG. Don’t forget the machine gun shoot Sunday.

Joining us for the second time here on MTNP radio is Mass Resistance’s John F. Russo, who tells us he has "publicly opposing the homosexual movement since 1993." A former Reading, MA school committee member, John has been writing newspaper articles, speaking on radio and TV, and has provided public testimony regarding the homosexual agenda and family values in both Massachusetts and NH. He also spends a great amount of time providing training and research to help grow the activist movement in defense of traditional family values. What triggered our invitation this time is tonight’s event being hosted by NH’s openly gay Episcopal "bishop" Gene Robinson right here in the ‘Grok’s hometown:
The Open Doors Fellowship will be presenting a Lakes Region-wide showing of Daniel Karslake’s film, "For The Bible Tells Me So," on Saturday, Oct. 25, at the First United Methodist Church in Gilford, and Episcopal Bishop V. Gene Robinson will be on hand to introduce the film and hold a question-and-answer session afterward.
Why can’t he just shut up and go about his "business" quietly? What kind of a "leader" is willing to destroy the very enterprise he heads? And worse, what kind of people are in his "flock" that would allow this to even happen? No wonder the "churches" are emptier and emptier every weekend. Why bother dragging your rear end down to "church" on Sunday when you can simply turn on MTV? Mr. Russo will attempt to give us the answer and what we should do. We’ll also ask him about certain Democrat politicians promiising a gay marriage bill in the next legislative session here in NH. What could that mean?

Fellow "Samspherian" Leslie Carbone is the author of Slaying Leviathan: The Moral Case for Tax Reform (Potomac, 2009) and blogs at www.lesliecarbone.blogspot.com. Her work has appeared in magazines including The Weekly Standard and The American Enterprise, in newspapers from The Philadelphia Inquirer to The San Francisco Chronicle, and on Web sites like BreakPoint and National Review Online. We’ll get her take on the ongoing tax debate sparked by Joe the Plumber and whether there’s any hope that we can "slay Leviathan"? We’ll also talk about the "Cornell versus Elena" story she covered in this excellent and eye-opening post. If you thought free speech and open-minded debate and discussion thrives on all college campuses, think again. We’ll also touch on the failed Hawaii universal health care experiment and what we should (but probably won’t) learn from it.
