EMail Doodlings: So, will this go down as the worst political debacle in a couple of decades?

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

“You’re dreaming”

Well, just after I wrote this, I saw that John Distaso’s latest popped up on my Google watch list.  And NH GOP Chair Jennifer Horn had this to say about this (emphasis mine):

State GOP chair Jennifer Horn told us today, “There is a healthy debate about the Senate’s health care compromise taking place among Republicans. This sort of debate and discussion within a political party is natural and nothing new.

“As we’ve always done, I am confident that come November, Republicans will unite behind our candidates and rally around our fiscally responsible solutions to address the difficult issues facing our state and our nation,” she said.

Happy talk.  JENNIFER!  Medicaid Expansion is NOT a “fiscally responsible solution” – and you can’t put lipstick on this pig. Medicaid Expansion is NOT something that Republicans are going to “rally around“, is it (its rather plain to see now)?  There is another political leader that makes these King Canute type statements – and for this country, there is no success there either.  Maybe it IS me, but Jennifer, you are facing a revolt;

Kerry Does The Kennedy Hit And Run

Kerry Kennedy is going to court for driving while drugged and leaving the scene of an accident.  I guess she didn’t have a local police commissioner on speed dial who could help her hide for 18 hours. She fled the scene of the accident and subsequently tested positive for Ambien several hours later, police said … Read more

Record High Number of Uninsured View ObamaCare Unfavorably

They are probably all Republicans though or on the take from the Koch brothers so what they think or say doesn’t count, right Zandra? Kaiser Family Foundation’s monthly health tracking poll found that in February, 56 percent of the uninsured view the Affordable Care Act unfavorably. The percentage of uninsured with a positive view reached … Read more

Notable Quote – Frederic Bastiat: “Lawful Plunder”

“It is in the nature of men to rise against the injustice of which they are the victims.  When, therfore, plunder is organized by law, for the profit of those who perpetrate it, all the plundered classes tend, either by peaceful or revolutionary means, to enter in some way into the manufacturing of laws.  These … Read more

VP Biden Speaks

Of all the people to come out against Photo I.D. to vote we have the U.S. Vice President Joe Biden. It probably isn’t news to Biden that we caught his niece Alana Biden voting illegally here in NH from the 145 Steinmetz St. voter fraud nest owned by the Kalik family. There is really not … Read more

The Cost of Medicaid Has Increased 31,212 %

If NH Senate Republicans would like to do some more math on just how much that best-case scenario 10% is going to cost their New Hampshire constituents over the long haul, (Democrats don’t care, by the way) they might want to factor this in as well. c/o The Daily Caller Using government data, in his … Read more

The Global Warming “Problem” In Sochi, Russia

Sochi as seen from the black sea
Sochi Russia, is a humid sub-trpoical coastal resort.

It was a matter of Climate alarmist pride that there were “issues” with the warm weather in Sochi for the Winter Olympics.  Well, I’m here to punch your pride full of holes with some help from Joe Bastardi at Weatherbell – writing over at the PatriotPost.us.

“…even the Olympics are now being turned into a propaganda message, as we are hearing about how warm it is. Hello, McFly, Sochi’s normal high is 52 degrees in winter.

Here is what Wikipedia has to say about Sochi:

According to the 2010 Census, the city had a permanent population of 343,334, up from 328,809 recorded in the 2002 Census, making it Russia’s largest resort city. It is one of the very few places in Russia with a subtropical climate, with warm to hot summers and mild winters.

Do I need to quote Homer Simpson?

Democrats Passed And Support Health Care Suppression

If asking for an ID to vote is voter suppression then needing an ID to access your ObamaCare health services must be health Care suppression, yes? You are required to provide a government issued photo ID to access your ObamaCare Services.  You can’t get them without it. I guess that means Democrats have to admit … Read more

GrokTV: 223 Day of Resistance rally – Speaker O’Brien, Ian Underwood

The speaker after Susan was former Speaker of the NH House (and ‘Grok friend) Bill O’Brien to discuss more of our history and why it is important: Ian Underwood followed Bill O’Brien and achieved his goal of “I would like you to think about something” – and my head still hurts.  His previous thought provoking … Read more

GrokTV: 223 Day of Resistance rally – NH State Reps Laura Jones and JR Hoell

A number of NH State Reps spoke at the rally.  Each has the dedication to the principle that people should be held above the Government (as opposed to people like this one that believe Government should control the people), that Individual Rights should trump the collective, and that our natural Rights pre-date Government, and that … Read more

GrokTV: 223 Day of Resistance rally – NH State Rep. Al Baldasaro, Jack Kimball, and the New Hampshire Family Photo

You ALWAYS get the straight talk from Al!  A former long term Marine, he has that straight ahead point of view that demands “no surrender” – and demands it of everyone around him.  And one of those points of views is the Right to bear and keep arms – and you can tell that “forceful” is the only gear he’s got! BTW, that was me that asked him “How much??” – pay attention as you watch – and I’m still waiting for an answer, Al!

Jack Kimball also was in attendance and came on at the end of the program to let people know about Operation American Spring:

Belknap County Convention Budget Meeting

I haven’t been going very often, even as I should be, but can’t do everything.  As it was, I was a few minutes late to this meeting last night but did catch the ending of NH State Rep Dennis Fields ranting about the last meeting, his voting, the blizzard, his phone(s) – just a hot mess.  And from what I hear, this was one of his better behaved nites (and yes, I have recorded him before at such a meeting – a hotter mess).  All that said, it was rather a benign nite all around (except for County Administrator Debbie Shackett’s rather snippy said “Your welcome”‘s, especially back to Chair Collette Worseman – you know the phrasing and tonation: seeming very polite words but promising knives).

It is very obvious who the folks are that are trying to protect the taxpayers’ wallets – and who are not.  It is also rather easy to tell, having watched this go-round before, who puts Government first.
