Tyler Deaton used to work for the same people who paid Mo Baxley.  Baxley was a progressive shill for out-of-state, NYC based, liberal gay-rights money.    Deaton took over to push the same agenda, with the same money, but as a Republican.  Without getting too technical, the goal was to use political influence to normalize the homosexual lifestyle.  Under Deaton it would be about inclusion in the Republican Party.

Now, Deaton is with the Young Republicans, and he’s passing a verbal Gall stone over the “inclusion” of Rick Santorum in a conference designed to stimulate discussion about expanding the base of the GOP.

“It’s embarrassing for the New Hampshire Republican Party to associate itself with Rick Santorum, especially at a time when we have so much opportunity to be successful,” he told the Granite Status.

Connecticut has made thousands of gun owners into criminals by passing a law that criminalizes legal weapons owned by its “citizens”, or subjects.

And here is a quote from the guy who intends to make a name for himself disarming Connecticut ’s subjects – much like any king, dictator, or tyrant would, and have for centuries.

Here is an article that explains it.

According to Mike Lawlor, Connecticut ’s top official in criminal justice, the state could send residents who are in violation a letter to remind them that they must register their firearms. Such a campaign could increase the state’s registration numbers significantly, since many might not have realized that they had to register rifles by the end of 2013, Lawlor added.

However, Lawlor said that as of today, such unregistered guns are now illegal.

I have a good reason for following the political journey of Davis.  She was lifted up by the left on to a mountain of aborted babies, and surrounded by adoring progressives who wanted to stand with her based on their perception of her–for lack of a better word–principles.

As the newly appointed demi-goddess of late term abortions, Davis became the superstar of a murder cult.  But now that she is running for statewide office in Texas, her, for lack of a better word—principles—are evolving.

Wendy Davis said Tuesday that she would have supported a ban on abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy, if the law adequately deferred to a woman and her doctor.

Dallas Morning News

So if you stand with Wendy, are you now “standing” for a 20 week ban on abortion?

If New Hampshire were to expand the program, the federal government would pick up the full cost for the first three years and 90 percent over the long haul. New Hampshire’s health care providers would share in an estimated $2.4 billion over seven years.

The bipartisan agreement would end when federal funding drops below 100 percent in three years unless the Legislature voted to continue it.

…”the Legislature would EVER vote to” discontinue ANY new entitlement?  Riiight.  Once enacted, there will be NOTHING bipartisan about stopping it.  Democrats would NEVER vote to  take away an entitlement, any extension of the Welfare State and the Republicans would not stand up to do unless they had supermajorities in which they didn’t have to worry about a thing (or wait….we did have that, didn’t we?).  Face it, now that the NH State Senate  Republicans decided to build this on-ramp to a more socialized State,  they won’t EVAH have the stones to repeal this Obama stew.  Democrats will continue to ride this new Republican provided highway until they arrive at the sign that states:

With a miasmia not seen since the Carter Presidency, you’d think that those elected to Congress would actually attend to those things of national / world level.  We’re still at war, our allies are running away from us, our enemies are laughing at us, the economy is in the tank with unprecedented levels of labor UN-participation, a majority of folks believe the country is in bad shape, a military that is being hollowed out, and a President that leads from behind as he’s not only transforming America, he’s doing it by taking over Congress’ responsibility.  With an almost  New Normal of Misplaced Priorities, what do two CongressCritters believe is the best use of their time?  Not the above things, but things like what a football team is named: the Washington Redskins

The Oneida Nation wants it changed, the Political Correct Shut’er Uppers, and the Professional Outraged all want to do all they can to force a change to something they don’t own.  Really – don’t like the name?  Ante up the selling price and you too can own a pro team – and change the name to your heart’s content.  But not willing to put their money where their mouths are, Senator Maria Cantwell (D-WA) and US Rep. Tom Cole (R-Ok) (many times, buttinski-ness knows no Party boundary – or decency).  Instead, they decided with their lofty titles (instead of taking care of their own business – at which they are failing, IMHO) to put their noses where they don’t belong.

Well, it turns out that the owner of the team, Synder, is getting real tired of other people telling him to “think right” and let off a “mind yer own biz first” corker

“A hypocrite is the kind of politician who would cut down a redwood tree, then mount the stump and make a speech for conservation.”   —Adlai E. Stevenson

Gun-Grabbing, anti-second amendment activist who vocally advocated for New York’s SAFE Act was arrested February 6…for carrying a firearm on school premises. Despite the fact that Ferguson, who does in fact possess a permit to carry a gun while seeking to take guns from others, The Empire States draconian gun laws do not permit the carrying on school properties.

Now, the SAFE Act proponent faces felony charges for violating the very law he himself had a hand in creating.

And that is because as you bump up against the Government subsidy levels, one additional dollar of income can result in thousands or tens of thousands of healthcare insurance costs that were formerly paid for – by others with their tax dollars.  Beeler nails it:

The Obama Administration proclaims “Less Job Lock” (staying at a job for its healthcare)!  “More Freedom, More Choice!” – but fails to be fully transparent by not admitting that this new found entitlement Obama derived Freedom  is only possible for some “choose” only by having  many more having to work MORE – or having THEIR standard of living intentionally lowered by having to pay more taxes to pay for those  who have decided to be less self-reliant and more dependent on Government.

Beeler gets it right – we will see the fruits of the ACORN / Obama Cloward-Piven strategy

HB1255, up for a vote today in the New Hampshire House, will probably fail.  HB1255 would make students whose name appear on the voter checklist eligible for in-state tuition rates at schools in the university system of New Hampshire.  It will fail because Democrats control that body and require the inequality that HB1255 would correct, remain in place.  What is this inequality?  It is the demand by Democrats that out of state students be allowed to vote as if they live in NH, while still requiring them to pay out of state tuition.

The Union Leader, Clarifies it for us.

Democrats insist, as Rep. Anne Grassie, D-Rochester, did, that “there is no correlation” between voting and in-state tuition. Then how does she explain that the University of New Hampshire considers voting registration to be an indication of residency for determining a student’s tuition rate?

Despite what you may have heard, the Kochtopus isn’t much to look at when it comes to the influence of money in politics.  According to the center for Responsive Politics, which tilts left by the way, Koch industries came in at a pathetic 59th place on their list of Top All Time Donors.

So who are the actual big dispensers of political money? The real cash-cow interlopers buying up votes and elections?  Unions.  Guess who they are donating to?

The cost of doing business has a direct effect on your ability to hire, retain, and reward employees.  The more time and money you must expend interfacing with the bureaucracy, and the army of flying compliance monkeys being waved out the castle window by successive Democrat run governments, the fewer resources you have left over for anything else.  Then there are the taxes and fees Democrats love, which nibble (or perhaps chew) at your success, leaving you less to grow your business with.

You can’t create jobs, or reward employees, or expand a business when your earnings are tied up by legislative mandate or bureaucratic fiat.  But Democrats love to pig pile more cost burdens on New Hampshire businesses every year.  To borrow a phrase from Roger Simon, It’s the Democrats’ war on work.

HB1589, which would have added background checks to our background checks, failed in the NH House today.

This is all due to the hard work of Grassroots activists, and we’d like to extend our thanks to them and the legislators who voted to kill this.

And I’d like to give a special thanks to Minnesota based Progress Now’s, Zandra Rice Hawkins.  Her painfully long-winded email, weighted down with tired left wing talking points, sent to everyone in the NH House, probably helped win the day for Second Amendment Supporters.

Thank You Zandra.

Most Democrats won’t give up abortion for anything.  They wouldn’t even trade it for an end to capital punishment.

Democrats try to pass legislation making it difficult to protest abortion, even though the right to protest–organizing to protest–is the foundation of every left wing change movement.

But NH HB 1503 doesn’t say anything about abortion.  And it says nothing about the “right to protest.”  It asks a question.  Do Women who want to keep the baby deserve civil and criminal “rights” when choosing life is denied them by a criminal act?

I was prepared for something strange when this crossed by digital desk, but what I found was just bizarre.

The ONG 52nd Civil Support Team training scenario involved a plot from local school district employees to use biological weapons in order to advance their beliefs about “protecting Gun Rights and Second Amendment rights.”

Portsmouth Chief of Police Bill Raisin told NBC 3 WSAZ-TV in Huntington, West Virginia that the drill accurately represented “the reality of the world we live in,” adding that such training “helps us all be prepared.”

Local school district employees? Defending the Second Amendment?
