No “race to the bottom” with THESE Union Leaders!

I look at the rate of increase of compensation for these Union heads and immediately starting thinking:

  • Wow, there’s no “race to the bottom here” in these paychecks!
  • Gee, all of these amounts come from – union members!
  • Gee – have their respective unions grown in membership to warrant such remuneration?
  • (er, no – union membership in the private sector is at an all time low)
  • Have these same union members seen even a 25% increase in THEIR paychecks?
  • And does the regular Joe Union-Member aware that they’ve dinged his paycheck to fatten their’s up this much?

Listening to his campaign rhetoric, methinks Obama can go much lower

Community Organizers of the Saul Alinsky mold HAVE to have someone to demonize and to call “The Other” that is “taking away something” or “Keeping you away from something” – they are only successful when they can anger folks against somebody else.  And by this amusing little cartoon, we can see that Obama has been … Read more

NH Democrat Policies On Voter ID and Domicile Still Matter…Here’s Why. (Part 1)

More than a few folks are probably wondering why I keep talking about vote fraud and photo ID.  TEA Party Republicans more or less plugged up the domicile loophole that invited out of state influence in our local New Hampshire elections, and even passed a voter ID requirement.  So where’s the fire?

Democrats are still lying about the issue, and if permitted any kind of majority in state government will do everything in their power to reverse the protections we’ve managed to gain.  So it is essential that we reveal the half-truths and outright lies they will continue to peddle all the way to November and beyond.

The Natural Escalation of Leftism’s Evolution

In a post of mine a few weeks back, when Captain Psycho P.h.d Orange Hair shot up a movie theater and ABC News then reflexively exhorted, “Tea Party! Tea Party! Tea Party!” with Tourette-like self control, I touched on something that I’ve been observing most of my life and only realized what it was and have been able to recognize it these past few years.  It is that the core of leftist, or liberal, ideology consists of the belief that everything is open to and subject to politics. Everything can, should, and, eventually, must be politicized.  Once something becomes political, it’s open to debate and thus can be modified.  This is what drives them “Forward,” as Lenin and Obama would say.

Is the GOP Headed for Implosion?

Boehner The Clown

House Speaker John Boehner took part in an interview with Fox News this week and one of the topics, invariably, was VP-pick, Paul Ryan.  During the interview, Greta Van Susteren challenged Boehner about Ryan’s votes for TARP, the auto bailouts, and two 2008 stimulus programs, asking how, as a Conservative, he politically “sells that”.

Boehner responded with just about the stupidest, yet telling, remark possible…

“We Are Our Brother’s Keeper” Really?

“We are our brother’s keeper,” is frequently uttered by his Majesty, which often incites a racing chill up the spine of the unfortunate recipients of the utterance. The chill is especially acute to those who actually read the Bible.  Characteristically, however, it’s meant to be taken figuratively and not literally.  Or so it seems.  Because when the brother of Obama is in a pinch, his Majesty cannot be found (he’s too busy on the 19th hole I suspect).  Well, thank goodness there’s a conservatives who can lend an ear and  a few bucks.

From the director of “2016: Obama’s America” came help for the brother of the film’s subject matter.

The Delphi Technique

As we find ourselves more and more exposed to committee meetings, public meetings, and even private ones, particularly with bureaucrats, paper pushers, or local or state level government officials, this bit of news might come in handy.

It’s about the Delphi Technique. From Informed Citizens United

In group settings, the Delphi Technique is an unethical method of achieving consensus on controversial topics.  It requires well-trained professionals, known as “facilitators” or “change agents” who deliberately escalate tension among group members, pitting one faction against another to make a preordained viewpoint appear “sensible,” while making opposing views appear ridiculous.

GrokTV: Conservative Republican Candidate Home Event – Herb Vadney

Last of the three Candidates from Meredith speaking at Barbara Aichinger’s home (and the only non-incumbent of the three) was Herb Vadney.  Although he has never been in the NH House, he has been a long time Selectman in Meredith and like the others, believes that while this past session has been a good start to undo the Democrats growing State government  into Concord, growing the size of the budget, and growing the resulting Command and Control Leviathan; a return to Live Free or Die vs a Live under Govt and Wither:

Shooting in DC – Lefty Media in No Particular Rush to Cover It.

Family Research Council in the cross-hairsFloyd Corkins II, of Hendron Virgina, walked in to the Family Rights Council offices in Washington DC and proceeded to shoot a security guard before the same guard subdued him (some reports say with help), preventing him from getting past the lobby of the building.

Corkins  “had been volunteering at a community center for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people,” according to AP and CBS news.  He is also reported to have shouted disagreements with the work the Christian group does before opening fire.

To their credit, Glaad, representing several gay rights groups, quickly released a statement condemning the shooting.  The shooter is in custody, and no one was seriously injured in the incident, so the bigger story is the lack of wall to wall media coverage of a shooting in the heart of Washington DC.

When Can We Cut the Other 50%?

University of NewHampshire SealThere is a lovely new candidate survey being mailed out to New Hampshire candidates from the Concord Monitor.  While most of the questions are loaded to demarcate the right left divide in state politics–have to make sure we know who the “TEA Party Extremists” are–one question in particular stood out.

“Do you support last year’s 50% cut in university Funding…”

How To Keep An Economy Down..

It is hard to beat the annual burden of government regulation for keeping the economy down.  It’s also a great way to keep unemployment up.  If Businesses have to spend more money to comply with regulations there is less to invest in the business or more employees.  And what’s even better is that this…(see chart on the jump)…is something the government did create.  Forty-six billion dollars ($46,000,000,000.00) in new additional regulatory costs per year!, heaped on business owners–during a recession– thanks to Barry “Big Bureaucracy” Obama…in just three years.

(I wonder if the idea came out of one of those job summit break-out session?)

GrokTV: Conservative Republican Candidate Home Event – Bob Greemore

Staying with the Conservative Candidates running for the NH House in Belknap 5 (Meredith and Gilford) is Bob Greemore.  Yet another small business owner, he too is not happy how the State of NH has drifted from being a biz friendly place – his business is down because a lot of his customers are not in business.  Someone who has fought hard as a member of the Belknap County delegation, he has fought to keepsafe taxpayers wallets:

No Bullies, Like Union Bullies

Below is text taken from N.H. House Speaker William O’Brien’s Facebook page:

Here’s what union-controlled government has become in New Hampshire:

Union operatives are pulling my yard signs from public areas and replacing some of them with union signs. Union thugs have twice gone into a general store in my town and threatened the woman who owns it with a boycott if she doesn’t take down a yard sign supporting me.

Unions also have promised to put $50,000 into my district, which has about 8,000 people, to defeat me. My opponents’ efforts are beginning to show that kind of spending.

Taxpayers Now Out 25 Billion

The Government Buy-up and Bail-out of General Motors saved union jobs while arbitrarily eliminating  tens of thousands of non-union jobs at dealerships, put taxpayers on the hook, and at present will cost us at least 25 Billion in losses as the value of the automaker “we own” a part of continues to decline. Had they … Read more

GrokTV Event: Belknap County Republican Committee “Contested Primaries” – NH State Senate District 7

In Belknap County, there is a second NH State Senate race – that in District 7.  Here, Josh Youseff and Bill Grimm are vying to be the Republican nominee to take on the Democrat contender.  In my estimation, there is a certain divide between the two – Josh is more the Liberty & Freedom guy (and the last of our interview series with him is here; follow it backwards) while Grimm is more the Establishment guy.  Also, as you listen to the video, it is plain that Grimm is not exactly “heads on and out front” on his answers; too much equivocation for me.  And his unwillingness to commit to The Pledge is similar to one of the Democrats, Jackie Cilley (while less than that of Bill Kennedy who is opening arguing for a broadbased income tax here in NH).

No, that is not Josh in the video; instead, a surrogate stood in for him.
