January 1^st is usually a day of reflection for many people over the previous year. It’s also a day where people create New Year’s Resolutions to make some sort of change in the new year. Political Buzz decided it might be a good time to create a New Year’s Resolution for politicians in New Hampshire, of any political affiliation, to stop lying to voters.

It’s really quite simple. If you want to pass legislation, use facts about it to explain why to voters. If you oppose legislation, use facts about it to explain why to voters.

Unfortunately, there are too many politicians who chose to lie about legislation to voters. That has to stop. Voters deserve better than to have elected officials lie to them about changes they seek to make in New Hampshire laws. Lying does no one any good and it keeps voters uninformed. That’s simply not fair to Granite Staters.

I am by NO means a gun expert but this headline at Fox was guffaw bait:

Man found with small arsenal on Houston Hyatt Regency’s top floor before New Year’s Eve celebration, police say.

Don’t worry, Fox, other media outlets had similar headlines but being more of a conservative outlet, you had NO one there to double check the copy first (that is, if he or she could stop laughing first)?  You know – facts?  Correct description?  Then I saw what constituted a “small arsenal”:

Heh!

Do you notice the irony of a giant tax cut motivating big companies to institute a $15/hour minimum wage for their workers? Could we at least get an “Amen!” from the Fight for 15 people?

Remember a while ago that agitators from various unions, especially the SEIU, were flogging and picketing fast food chains like McDonalds, Wendy’s, and Burger King, especially in bigger cities?  They wanted the employees to step out of their stores and demand far more than what they were worth at the time.  Led by union organizers from the SEUI (who could have cared less about their future members – they spent millions in trying to acquire millions of new dues paying members), they made it a national news story.  While the cameras were out front, the unions were getting their faces into their Democrat elected officials to get their economic demands codified into law – notably in California and New York (who knew?) with the expected results now that the minimum wages are skyrocketing. So I have to laugh – Trump has screwed them all over.  Instead of

That would be the Democrats and are well known as the Party of Government.  Why not? It seems that most of the employees are tilted towards one Party and it aint the Republicans.  Like this department:

VIRTUALLY EVERY DAY OF 2016, SOMEBODY IN DOJ DC WAS GIVING MONEY TO HILLARY: More than 2,600 individual donations were to the Clinton campaign by donors who listed the Department of Justice or one of its elements, like the FBI, as their employers. Their contributions totaled more than $416,000. Trump got a little more than $20,000 from a mere 61 such employees.

Only 268 of them lived in the Washington, D.C. but their combined total of more than $242,000 was half of all the DOJ/FBI donors to Clinton. That’s a drop in the bucket of $1.2 billion that Clinton spent in losing to Donald Trump but the huge gulf between DOJ backers of Clinton and Trump sheds additional light on why congressional Republicans are raising a growing stink about partisan bias in DOJ and the FBI.

I guess they did put their money where their mouths were –

It’s a new year, and we have the same problems humans have faced forever. Some have more than others. One solution seems to be redistributing what “everyone” has until everyone is “happy.”

Not that long ago such an attempt was made in an oil-rich country in South America.

After all, at every turn our all Democrat Congressional delegation (e.g., Jeanne “Obamacare” Shaheen, Maggie “The Red” Hassan, Annie “I’m the most Progressive” Kuster, and Carol SEIU-Porter) denounced Republiacn Judge Ray Moore who was running to fill former US Senator and now US Attorney General Jeff Session’s Senate seat from Alabama on the basis of the allegations of sexual harassment.  Frankly, I’m betting that it was mostly because he said he’d really support Trump’s agenda and would be a reliable vote.  But now, we may really find out if the sexual harassment part was primary because now one of their own (a Democrat) is planning on running for Congress from Pennsylvania (emphasis mine):

A former Philadelphia judge named Willie Singletary has been in the public eye for quite a while and unfortunately for him, it’s not all been good. First, he was forced to resign after it was discovered that he sexually harassed a city cashier and sent her pictures of his genitals. He was suspected, and forced to resign after an investigation revealed some unsavory details.

Yesterday, the out-of-state organization known as “Let America Vote” announced they will be setting up shop in New Hampshire in order to interfere with the 2018 elections.

They are an organization that is run by former Missouri Secretary of State Jason Kander and his wife. Their board is a “who’s who” of far-left wing extremists from across the country, including Planned Parenthood Action Fund President Cecile Richards and former Obama White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest.
