I’m talking about the decision of the NH State Senate Republicans (Jeb Bradley, Chuck Morse, Nancy Stiles, Odell (whatever his first name, although after the next election, it may really be “whatever it was”) to help carry President Obama’s water in implementing Obamacare’s Medicare Expansion. Regardless of their claim of “it’s not Medicaid – we’re putting them onto private insurance!”, it is lipstick on a pig. Regardless of their claim that it doesn’t impact NH taxpayers, it hoovers money out of us NH citizens that are Federal taxpayers. They say it will sunset in 3 years unless the Legislators vote it back in; the lame message is “Wait, we’ve given us ALL a way out of this!” – but why is it that I have the visualization of the Democrats as being Junkyard Dogs snarling and drooling over their brand new bone – “Sure, go ahead and try to take it away!”
The only even lamer excuse for them to be doing this is “to take it off the table” with the elections coming up. Only Massive Stupidity says “let’s advance the Democrats FAVORITE agenda in order to get re-elected”. Note to the Silly: trying to make the Democrats your base has had only one result: torquing off your PRESENT Republican base and those Independents that used to be Republicans (and congrats, you may well be making more of the latter from the former).
So the question is, with the vote of “NO CONFIDENCE” from the Rockingham, Manchester, Strafford, Bedford, Merrimack, and Plaistow (and a whole raft more from what I understand) in resolutions basically saying “HELL no!”, are these Rogue Republicans
