If we called Ben Rous’ home in Virginia and asked his wife where her husband ‘lives,’ do you think she’d  say 50 Adams Point Road in Durham New Hampshire?

Ben is the adult son of New Hampshire Democrat Emma Rous (Former Democrat House Rep).  Emma lives at 50 Adams Point Road in Durham New Hampshire?  Ben ‘lived’ at his mom’s house in 2012 long enough to register to vote there, before going back to Virgina where he happens to be a conductor for the Virginia Symphony Orchestra.  That’s one bitch of a commute to have to make just to get to work if you’re actually trying to convince anyone you are still  “living” in Durham New Hampshire…just so you can vote here.

Planned parenthood of New Hampshire has been ‘hired’ by Kath(lean-forward) Sebelius to hawk ObamaCare to the unwashed masses.

From Iowa Watchdog.org (emphasis theirs)

Planned Parenthood partners in three states – Montana, Iowa and New Hampshire – will receive money under the HHS navigator program.

The Montana-based Intermountain Planned Parenthood will receive $214,000, the Iowa-based Planned Parenthood of the Heartland gets $214,427 and the New Hampshire-based Planned Parenthood of Northern New England will pocket $145,461.

For $145,00o.oo dollars I might be willing to tell people about Obama-Care as well.

OK, I’d tell them to call their legislators and de-fund it, water-board it, end it, cancel it, give it end of life counseling, anything to make it go away or at the very least keep it out of the Granite State.  But that would be a bargain if it worked.  We’d save trillions for a pittance.

But that’s now it’s going to work.   They’re going to funnel more of your money into the crony-network of aiders and abetters.

In search of a second term defining plan, the Obama team is our running a PR campaign on an effort they claim is new and innovative–so much so that it may define Mr. Obama’s second term as President.

They want to spend billions on getting High Speed internet to every classroom in America, a program they are calling ConnectEd.  They are even willing to do it without congress if they have to (big suprise there), funding it through an increase in FCC fees on mobile phone users.

But they don’t have to.  Congress passed and Bill Clinton signed,  back in 1996, a plan that has empowered the FCC since 1997 to spend up 2.5 billion annually to do exactly what the Obama Team is trying to sell as a cutting edge idea today.

The LENCO Bearcat Armored Law Enforcement Tactical vehicle.  Seats 10-12 fully-equipped officers.   Price tag approximately $285,000.

Used to be, only the large urban metropolitan areas had a SWAT team.  Then, smaller cities got them.  Now, many small and medium-sized towns are thinking about it, working to raise the funds to buy gear, equipment, and weapons.

One has to ask: Why and what are they preparing for?

And why does Concord, NH need one of these?

Can I PLEASE put this under “even a stopped clock is right twice a day”?  Here’s the news at which, I have to admit, I just grimaced:

Senate President Peter Bragdon, R-Milford, on Tuesday accepted the $180,000-a-year job of running the Local Government Center, the controversial nonprofit that manages health and other insurance plans for cities and school districts across the state.

Bragdon, 50, signed a one-year contract and starts Wednesday as executive director, replacing George Bald, the former state development commissioner who took over at the LGC for the past six months.

…Bragdon said he will remain as Senate leader and intends to seek re-election as senator in 2014. He plans to remain a member of the Milford School Board for a term that runs another 18 months.

As for conflicts of interest, Bragdon said he would abstain from taking part on any legislation related to municipal and school insurance risk pools at the Statehouse and any insurance contracts when the LGC would be a bidder before the town’s school board

Right – the revolving door which has been used WAY too much lately – just another example of one hand of The Ruling Class greasing another hand – of the same Class.  I certainly can’t remember anything like this before (not that I’ve been watching this closely for all that long).  But really – this is just plain ugly.

So now we have the Super-Duper Sterling Political Optics of an NH GOP Chair who didn’t pay her Federal Taxes and now the highest ranking Republican in the State (Ayotte being Federal) getting paid by both sides (yes, $100 still counts as getting paid – taxes do get pulled from it) of the lobby scene – head of those that have to listen to the lobbyists, and then the head honcho that tells lobbyists

“Go sic’em“

Paint those optics black.  And yes, I can’t believe that I actually agree with
