The more you know about voter fraud in NH the more the smell of dead fish comes to mind.

Remember that “exoneration” of the clearly out-of-state campaign workers who from 2008 – 2012 were registered at NH State Senator Martha Fuller Clark’s voter fraud flophouse in Portsmouth?  Now, never say I have had an issue with her grown children who look like they live somewhere else but vote from her home. I am not even sure I remember their names, irrelevant to me, but this deal about the NH Attorney General’s Office “exonerating” Senator Clark – that is interesting, really interesting.

If The NH AG is investigating voter fraud, using their own special standards, not our laws, then their actions regarding the State Senator Clark voter fraud flophouse make sense.  Here is why:

Years ago, one of the Left’s favorite bumper sticker said that they would have achieved their goal when instead of schools having bake sales, the Department of Defense had to have one.  The idea was also summed up by the phrase “Make Love Not War”.  Now, education, peace, and love are nice things, important things – but so is the ability to defend oneself. Well, from a great new interactive tool from the CATO Institute comes this chart that shows spending for Federal Departments from 1970 to 2013 that shows that those Leftist nostrums are now coming true.  I picked:

• Social Security Administration (due to the Boomers retiring)
• Department of Defense (to see the effects of Obama as C-in-C)
• Department of Health and Human Services (as I have felt that our welfare state has been growing out of control, especially under Obama)
• Department of the Treasury (to see the effects of the “stimulus” spending and if it has slowed)
• International Aid Programs (because it seems every TEA Party rally has folks railing against this kind of spending)

Yeah, but this is what happens when it doesn’t work:

RULE 4: “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules. (This is a serious rule. The besieged entity’s very credibility and reputation is at stake, because if activists catch it lying or not living up to its commitments, they can continue to chip away at the damage.)

It seems, however, that Obama has assumed that everyone would play by his playbook and, well, have “a book” that he could turn against them.  For his fumbling concerning Syria, this may be his Waterloo.  Prattling on about a “Red line” and “moral authority”  Obama has tried to make others just fall into line like good little doobies (no, not the kind that the Choom Gang was familiar with) with his use of RULE 10 (“If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive.”).  He tried it with the American people who have rightly seen through it.  He has tried to force the Congress to “live up to its rule book”  but having been ignored, slighted, and bullied by him, it looks like they are growing a few hundred pair.  Plus, all of these elected officials are rightly worried about being seen  as favoring the same people that attacked us, Al Qaeda, and started us into 2 wars – and given how they have or are turning out, they are more concerned with their butts than Obama’s legacy or Presidency.

Or, have the blinders finally come off?

Did you hear that the Manchester Paper has a story about NH State senator Jeb Bradley’s son voting in Colorado where he went to college – and by absentee here in NH? Well I did.

And I was thinking, how did the “investigative journalist” at the Manchester Paper get that kind of info from an out of state source? Most states do not give it out over the phone – so I called.

The people in Colorado, at the Laramire County Clerk’s Office, are very nice. They were more than ready to tell me how the Bradley boy voted but wondered about all the calls regarding this one voter.

Huh?

“Conservatives believe Liberals are misguided; Liberals think Conservatives are EVIL!“

And old phrase – but when you have been watching not only what Liberals / Progressives say but also what they DO and behave, it is clear that Katrina vandenHeuval is not kidding:

Maybe we could launch intervention in those states which are waging war vs. democracy, rolling back voting rights?

— Katrina vandenHeuvel (@KatrinaNation) September 4, 2013

You see, EVIL must be stamped out – and anyone or ANYTHING that disagrees with them, their agenda (bordering on religious heterodoxy), or their politics must be wiped out completely.  How often have you seen Conservatives hounded and driven out, not only the area in which that Conservative “has sinned” but everything in which that Conservative participates?  And she wants to step that up by using the US Military?

Yesterday I posted this about the bomb that Anthem laid concerning healthcare under Obamacare rules – and the rules laid down by our own State bureaucrats:

Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield confirmed that nearly half of the hospitals in its network will not be taking part in the program. Understanding what the rules are at the Insurance Department around network adequacy, we determined we had to come up with an appropriate balance between access and affordability,” said Paula Rogers of Anthem.

Well, as I figured, a little more came out today:

“We are well aware the concept of a narrow network is new to New Hampshire,” Rogers said. “Do we need 26 hospitals to serve our plan? We decided we didn’t.” The network for Anthem individual policy holders who do not purchase through the exchange will be limited as well when current policies expire.

I have no problem with a private company making decisions in how it runs that business – after all, it is “private property” which the owners control and the First Amendment gives them the Right to associate with whom they wish – and who they don’t.  If a Free Marketplace truly existed, there would be competition in a heartbeat to fill the vacuum left by this decision to join up the OTHER 1/2 of the hospitals left out of Anthem’s plan.  Unfortunately, as opposed to Progressives trying to mask the government control over healthcare by making it seem that there is a “real marketplace”, there isn’t one and anyone who says otherwise is either woefully stupid or crassly lying to you.  Anthem has this to do CYA:

We are heading toward a record lack of hurricanes… is it due to Global Warming?

The number of named storms is on pace to fall within the range several seasonal forecasts have projected. On average, however, the season should have seen its first hurricane by now, and none has emerged. Indeed, the first major hurricane, with maximum sustained winds of 111 miles an hour or more, typically appears around Sept. 4, notes Dennis Felgen, spokesmen for the National Hurricane Center.

If the first hurricane fails to appear until after 8 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time Sept. 15, this will be the most hurricane-free first half of a season since satellites began tracking the storms in 1967, he notes in an e-mail.

The Union Leader is reporting that while in college in Colorado, Sebastian Bradley, son of New Hampshire Republican Jeb Bradley, voted in Colorado–where he was attending College, and also voted absentee in New Hampshire.

If it is true he needs to suffer for that.  We’ve made it clear that we have zero tolerance for this crap no matter who does it.   But the more important point is this: there are thousands and thousands of double registered voters in New Hampshire who have been told it is OK to vote here even if they live out of state.   Given the porous nature of voting laws in many states, any number of people could be double-voting, or appear to be double voting.

Today I found out from an article in the Manchester Paper that there was another “investigation” into voter fraud by someone.

Good grief!  The article I read doesn’t even say who investigated this example of voter fraud. Read on readers:  This time it was, again, a Republican being accused of voter fraud.  How interesting.  Here is what I know from reading the news story about this investigation that doesn’t mention the NH AG’s Office.

State Senator Jeb Bradley has a son who voted in NH in 2008 and records from other states indicate that his son also voted from his college residence at Colorado State in the same year.

Another big story from the same investigative reporter at the Manchester Paper was about State Rep. Neil Kurk, who’s daughter lives in Hawaii , but votes here in Weare, New Hampshire; not Hawaii .

She has a NH driver’s license and considers NH her home.  She has done this for years and I knew about it – having a NH driver’s license kind of dropped that issue for me.   I am more interested in non-resident voters who have no business voting here, no relatives, no connection.  I keep finding non-residents from the Obama campaign voting here illegally, something the AG and the investigative reporter from the Manchester Paper never seem to stumble across.

Imagine my surprise to find out that the NH Attorney General is not quoted in the recent article about voter fraud.

Investigative Journalist John DiStaso, Union Leader, has had a knack for “uncovering and reporting” potential evidence of Vote Fraud committed by family members of New Hampshire Republicans.

He was all over Neil Kirk’s daughter, who has a New Hampshire’s Driver’s license, but never mentions if Jeanne Shaheen’s daughter Molly, whom he mentions as having voted here,  has one as well.  We don’t know that answer.  He either didn’t investigate that or withheld the answer.

There has also been a dearth of similar reporting by Investigative Reporter DiStaso on prominent Democrats…and now we know why.   John DiStaso’s source for these ‘stories’ is the OFA/NHDP Press spokes-person/propaganda Minister Harrell Kirstein from the New Hampshire Democrat Party.

Call it skullduggery, chicanery, legerdemain or plain old hucksterism, they all last only so long before the mountebank that projects them finds his charade dissolving and evaporating into a brown, fetid mist leaving him hemming, hawing and clutching his well placed fig leaf. And so it is with our mountebank that occupies The White House.

Obama once told Richard Wolffe, “You know, I actually believe my own bulls**t“.  Well he’s not alone. His bulls**t fueled the emotional engine and fed the pathos craving Left and many other Americans long enough to earn him his stay at the White House. However, it’s starting to rot white and crumble in a spectacular way and on the world stage.

Of course it didn’t help him any when he decided to serve another course of bull scat and baldy, laughably, embarrassingly state that the red line was not his. Though he’s said it several times. Everyone know he’s lying and seeking a political CYA. Everyone. What’s more embarrassing is what he expects us to buy.
