AFP/NH Grand Opening Videos – Micro Interviews with NH State Reps JR Hoell and Mark Warden

Two of the hardest working State Reps for Individual Freedom and Liberty were also there last night: JR Hoell and Mark Warden.  They have one way of looking at things: where there is a place for a limited government (a status that Progressive Democrats think is akin to anarchy) they always advocate that power removed from Government and handed back to the Individual.  I have never known either one to back down from a fight for that outlook either.  The word “back benchers” could never be applied to them; they lead from the front.

AFP/NH Grand Opening Videos – Micro Interview with Free State Project President Carla Gericke

Last of the micro-interviews was a surprise – I had wandered around to find Mark Warden and found him talking to a few people that I had never seen before – but they certainly knew each other.  Of COURSE – FSPers from the Free State Project.  No, it is NOT as the NH Dems claim, a cause to take over the State of NH.  Rather, let them speak for themselves:

“Do you believe that adults have the right to make their own decisions about their own lives? Do you want to live in a place where adults are treated as adults? Where people take responsibility for their own actions, lives, and dealings with others? Where community is genuine and voluntary? Where your rights are fully respected, provided only that you equally respect the rights of others?”

“…have the right to make their own decisions about their own lives” – THAT’S why the Democrats hate them (and a few Progressive Republicans to boot)!  They refuse that silly Statist axiom that only the Collective can make the best decision for the serfs Individual.  So when I learned who was in front of me, I had to ask “would you spend a few minutes with GraniteGrok?”.  And Carla said yes!

Carla Gericke

President, Free State Project

Mike Gill Interview with Nashua Patch on FRM Cover Up

Mike Gill is naming names as he continues to seek accountability from those involved in New Hampshire’s  FRM banking scandal and beyond.  Elected officials, judges, members of the banking committee, friends and family of people in State Government, and the AG’s office, are all implicated by Mr. Gill in the scheme and its cover up.

We had Mike on GrokTALK! last week (I’ll post that individual segment up today) but you can listen to him here as well, in part one of two from an interview he did with Nashua Patch.

The RINO Report: Usual Suspects And Some Newly Minted

“Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice. And moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue.” —Barry Goldwater

 

Meh.
Meh.

HB 474 passed out of the house today on a roll call vote of 188 to 155. “Relative to eligibility for in-state tuition rates at the university system of New Hampshire,” as the bill is titled, provides in-state tuition rates for “crimaliens,” those who are not present in our State, much less our country, with the benefit of being here, legally. 

This bill is morally repugnant to so many who filled out forms, came to this nation and played by all the rules to be citizens and reap the benefits

Freaking gun-grabbers pull a fast one…HB 1589 Subcommittee Named

Email from the NH Firearms Coalition:
‘Dear Susan,

Earlier this week we told you about New Hampshire HB 1589.  A bill that will put you in prison for up to 7 years if you sell or loan a gun to a friend, shooting partner or hunting buddy.

The bill had a public hearing on Tuesday, January 21, 2014 and opponents outnumbered supporters by 30 – 1.  Nevertheless, instead of just killing the bill, Rep. Edward Butler, Chairman of the House Commerce and Consumer Affairs Committee has appointed himself and 2 other State Representatives to a “sub committee” to “study” the bill.

Here’s what you need to do:

Painting A Vote Fraud Conspiracy Portrait

NH Vote Fraud at Martha's Motel Martha Fuller Clark home to out of state vote stealersWhile it is not the only such location, 1200 Elm Street in Manchester has become the focus of vote-fraud reporting because it exemplifies the conspiratorial nature of this Democrat Party enterprise.

Multiple names, all from out of state, many far flung from each other, several of them with expensive homes in their home states, campaigners, lawyers, folks, registered to vote (and voting) from the same apartment numbers at 1200 Elm, Manchester, NH

Just as an example, if you owned and were paying taxes on a $2 million dollar home in another state why would you be in an apartment in NH, claiming to live here so you could vote?  We’ve got that.

Why all the different Democrat out of state campaigners, lawyers, and activists, calling the same apartments in the same apartment building home, all of whom have homes and drivers licenses and lives in other states, casting ballots in your local elections?

And it is not just 1200 Elm street in Manchester, though we will stay focused there for the moment because it paints a very ugly vote fraud portrait.

Lessons Society Never Seems To Learn

‘Crazy’ is a term of art; ‘Insane’ is a term of law. Remember that, and you will save yourself a lot of trouble.   —Hunter S. Thompson

oulson-tmagArticleOn January 13, Curtis Reeves, a 71-year-old retired police captain shot and killed Chad Oulson with a .38 caliber revolver, over what media accounts claim was thrown popcorn and an argument because Oulson would not shut off his cell phone. Oulson and his wife Nicole were at the Wesley Chapel Theater for a, “date night.” Media accounts state that Reeves was annoyed by Oulson’s cell phone use and Oulson refused to shut off his cell phone when the movie previews began. Chad and Nicole have a 22-month-old daughter.

NH Democrat Sylvia Larsen – “Hey, Let’s Scare Employers Away From and Out Of New Hampshire!”

Kimberly Morin has a very revealing piece at Examiner.com in which she parses NH Democrat Sylvia Larsen’s proposed Senate Bill SB207.

Larsen, hewing to her progressive busy-body roots, is set on something she calls ‘paycheck equality,’ but as Morin observes, it is not just a ridiculous idea that attempts to patronize to populist ignornace to fix a problem that does not even exist, it will probably end up hurting women more than helping them.

In all scenarios (with SB 207), women lose. When employers are forced to make hiring and salary decisions based on the possibility of frivolous lawsuits, they must tread lightly in order to avoid spending hundreds of thousands of dollars in lawyer’s fees. This takes the advantages that women have gained over the decades out of their hands. Women aren’t weak little flowers that don’t know how to negotiate. They have been negotiating for higher salary, better benefits and flexible work schedules for years now. What the New Hampshire Democrats’ ‘Paycheck Fairness Act’ achieves is to set women in the workforce back decades.

Larsen is pandering without regard to the consequences.

How Does This Democrat Vote Fraud Grab You?

We’re breaking significant vote fraud news today, and it starts with Caitlin Ann Legacki.

NIf you thnk lrtting proplr from out of state Vote in NH if OK youre Gonna have a bad timeew Hampshire Democrats know who Caitlin A. Legacki is.  She worked for Jeanne Shahenn’s 2008 Senate campaign.  She even voted from New Hampshire in 2008.  But Caitlin isn’t from New Hampshire.  She is a significant player in Democrat campaigns and politics, just like all the other transient voters who drift in, steal your votes, and then leave.

Caitlin is from Alaska, where her activism started in 2004.  She went to UNC, worked for John Edwards in Iowa circa 2007, for Jeanne Shaheen in 2008, was a paid congressional staffer for Congressman Burce Braley in Iowa (where she violated House Rules by campaigning for the congressman while on his staff), worked for Kay Hagan in NC, and most recently for Clair McCaskill in Missouri in the 2012 cycle and is currently in the employ of  the OFA catch drain called Precision Strategies with the infamous Stephanie Cutter.

So what about that big vote fraud news I mentioned in the title? Hold on to you ballot stuffing Transient Democrat Obama Voters, it’s a big one.

NH Democrat Majority House – Yes, Let’s Give Illegal Alien’s Taxpayer Supported In-State Tuition Rates

The vote has been cast.   New Hampshire Democrats want you to finance in-state tuition for illegal immigrants. Slap!

(Full breakdown of the Roll Call available on the jump)

HB 474 passed 188 Yea 155 Nay, with 8 “republicans” joining the Democrat majority.  The usual suspects, of course, Kidder, Gargasz, Lockwood, and a few others.

It moves to the NH Senate now where last years much more reliable stop gap for left-wing stupidity has crumbled heading into this session.  So there are no guarantees that they will stand up and stop it.

If you ask me, if UNH want’s this they can fund raise.  They can eat the difference.  Better yet.  Since Democrats want it so bad, how about some of those very well-funded liberal NGO’s and the so-called non-partisan non-profit groups that get all that out of state money (and spend it on electing Democrats), create a scholarship reimbursement program to help fund the difference for in-state tuition for illegal aliens in NH?

No?  You’d rather put taxpayers on the hook for that?

Giving the Store Away…

No In-State Tuition for Illegals

HB474 just passed the NH House, which would provide illegal immigrants the benefit of in-state tuition rates, provided they have attended 3 years of NH High School and have been domiciled in NH, and “promise” to gain legal residency.

The Roll Call for this bill shows that one of *my* Republican Reps, Bob Willette, voted “YEA”.

I am shocked and in disbelief why Rep. Willette and a handful of other “Republicans” voted for such utter nonsense.
