In segment three Jane Cormier finishes up with her priorities for the NH Senate before Kevin Bloom and Kirk McNeil step in to begin our End of Session Round up. Where do we start? Industrial hemp. Rope, Fabric, hempcrete, you can feed parts of it to dairy cows and it’s good for them and their … Read more

As Iraq unravels and emperor Obama reminds congress he’s got the authority to act already, lets recall the cloying hypocrisy of Democrat rhetoric–as we take a left turn down memory hole lane. You probably remember Democrats opposing action in Iraq, in 2004, 2006 and 2008. It was the bad war, after all. If Obama decides … Read more

WND.com Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton initially obliged Tuesday when she was stopped by a man in Washington, D.C., who asked if she could autograph her new book, “Hard Choices,” but she was stunned by the man’s brazen request when he asked her to make it out to “Christopher Stevens.” The exchange between Clinton … Read more
The killing of coal by the Administration that I wrote about here? Simply because:
In doing so, they will go well past “fundamentally transform” the United States – they are going to completely move us to a Second World nation. And for what?
All this for what will amount to 0.018 degrees F by 2100.
Yeah, only a 0.018 difference in the temperature of the Earth. Anything that is done here in the US will be totally swamped out of focus by both Russia and China (not to mention all the developing nations all aspiring to be First World.
The president and CEO of Simon and Schuster had to have been one of the people who signed off on Hillary Clinton’s fourteen million dollar book deal pay-day; a book that is being summarily trashed; a book tour that is being ridiculed.
But when you’ve got a thing for the candidate….
Carolyn Reidy, former manager at CBS, and current president and CEO of Simon & Schuster, is a Hillary Supporter. When Mrs. Bill Clinton ran in 2008 Ms. Reidy made at least three donations totaling $2,300.00 dollars to Hillary Clinton for President. I’m sure as a manager at CBS, a period that has overlapped her leadership at S&S, she provides input on the standard media in-kind contribution to politicians she favors. Maybe?
Whatever the relationship, Reidy can’t be the only stiff in S&S leadership who has a thing for Hillary. Fourteen Million? They think America likes her that much?
Bubble. Big bubble.
Does it make you uneasy and mad that the rules that are set down for us can be ignored by those that impose them upon us? Shades of Ian Underwood’s testimony:
The first is that a bill like this undermines respect for the very rule of law itself. After all, if the legislature isn’t going to respect the limits placed on it by the NH Constitution, then why should individuals respect the limits placed on them by that legislature — whether regarding guns, or schools, or traffic laws, or anything else?
Or in this case, the Bureaucracy? If it cannot obey its authorizing statutes, laws, and regulations, why do we need to follow them? Otherwise, we are left with “Government by Hypocrisy” – and millions did not sacrifice and die for that.
“This illustrates the futility of the entire global warming enterprise. Trying to compel the use of inefficient, impractical energy sources is like trying to push water uphill. The global warming hysterics can, and will, cause a lot of money to change hands, but they aren’t going to prevent CO2 from entering the atmosphere. Fortunately, the … Read more
We got more of that Republican ‘Unity’ the other day. You will recognize it right away. It is the same Republican unity that resulted in a New Hampshire Republican sponsored expansion of ObamaCare in NH. A gas tax. Support for a speech chilling, anti-first amendment bill, an anti-gun rights bill and others.
The unity of which I speak comes from Republican Party Chairman Jennifer Horn. She showed her true color, Brown, when she publicly tore into Jim Rubens and Bob Smith for not immediately signing a letter of support for whichever of them won the GOP Primary to challenge Democrat Jeanne Shaheen. Horn stated that their refusal suggests they could later choose to support a third party or even Democrat candidate instead of the Republican primary winner.
That’s amusing coming from a state party with a habitual tendency to ignore and even impede the effort of Republican candidates that have not fallen close enough to the NH-GOP ruling class tree.
In an interview with Fox News, Hillary Clinton actually stood by lying liar Susan Rice’s comments regarding the (known immediately) terrorist attack on Benghazi occurring over a youtube video. The woman is clearly mentally incapacitated and not due to drugs but due to being a Democrat with no conscience. Video c/o video.foxnews.com Watch the … Read more
Why? When I circulated this around to the other Groksters, Steve immediately replied:
“Guy who barely voted with Republicans 6 out of 10 times supports Scott Brown who voted with Democrats 6 out of 10 times.”
Indeed! NH Rep. Rick Ladd, Grafton 4, had an HRA score of 64.2% – FAR less in line with the NH GOP Platform than that “Reagan magic number” of 70-80% “with me” and well within that margin of RINOland. Consistency and Trust – as a Republican, are you feeling good about being able to Trust his Consistency on his votes to give him yours? If you are voting for a Republican, is it not a decent expectation for that Republican to support Republican Principles? Why the reason for the move?
Rep. Rick Ladd, R-Haverhill, said in a statement that he initially supported Rubens’ and is now “disappointed” by Rubens’ initial refusal to pledge to support Brown should Brown win the GOP Senate nomination.
…In a statement from Ladd released by the Brown campaign, Ladd says, “Jim Rubens is a good person and thoughtful candidate. I initially supported Jim’s candidacy, but am disappointed that he has refused to commit to endorsing our eventual nominee for Senate.
Ah! Another “Republican Republican for the sake of the Party” – a Gene
“Maybe (Scott Brown is) the Republican version of a Kardashian. Famous for being famous. You know, he was that guy with the (R) after his name who sat in Ted Kennedy’s Senate seat long enough to vote like a Kennedy 62% of the time. Not really a Republican, not even able to debate one, just … Read more
Bill Maher: “Some people called it a war on coal. I hope it is a war on coal. Is it?”
Gina McCarthy: “That’s exactly what this is.”
For some perspective, a Heritage Foundation analysis of anti-coal policies found that they will destroy more than 500,000 jobs, slash the income of a typical family of four more than $1,400 a year, and increase electricity prices at least 20 percent. Price spikes could be much higher in states that depend heavily on coal-fired power plants, especially in the Midwest. Coal still produces 37% of the nation’s electricity.
All this for what will amount to 0.018 degrees F by 2100. Trillions spent for a result that can’t be told from “signal noise?”
You read that right. Poo Flinging Mayor Resigns. (It is not a CNN/MSNBC top story because the mayor is not a Republican.) Democrat Dennis Kneier (kuh-NEER’), was the mayor of San Marino, California, until he was caught on surveillance video tossing dog poop onto a political opponents yard. To have fallen so far. Less than … Read more
Is it just me or does anyone else think the Obama administration is dumping illegals all over the place to create pressure for some form of quick and easy immigration reform? They tried to run guns into Mexico so they could make the case that US guns ended up in the hands of drug lords. … Read more
The definiton of “How to be a ‘Good’ Democrat” is to continuously reward poor results with other peoples money.
In segment two Jane Cormier joins the program to talk about her NH State Senate campaign (Dist 16), the issues, constituent expectations, and when Republicans legislate out of fear rather than principle. Before that, Skip, Mike, Ed, and Rick revisit the significance of Eric Cantor’s loss, RINO’s and the Concord Flu, a second Bill O’Brien … Read more
The most transparent administration (evah!) announce that it has lost emails from six other IRS employees (who just so happened to be) involved in the IRS targeting scandal. Must have happened when they were trying to clean out the browser histories with all the links to porn sites. (Wait- that was the SEC.) It’s not … Read more
Most anyone who is planning to run for the NH House has already signed up to do so. Many of them will have served previously, some of those will be involved in primaries, so it pays to know how your sitting House members rate when it come to voting the Republican platform. One of the … Read more
