“Lefties: Always Ready to Dance on Children’s Graves”

“Dems are already blaming the deaths of Oklahoma children on Republicans, just as they did in Connecticut in December. It seems that there is nothing they like more than dead children to push their agenda.”   

Truly, are these people deranged?

“Democrats in the House and Senate are looking to stop what they say are deceptive advertising practices by anti-abortion health clinics that imply they offer abortion services, but instead encourage birth and promote adoption.” As opposed to Kermit Gosnell’s “Women’s Medical Society”? Are you freaking kidding me?

Are You Sure You Are Not Just a “Drug Mule” for the RPC’s Agenda?

Supports of SB11, and perhaps even the folks who are lining up to claim the bill will probably do no harm, should understand that the coincidences between what SB 11 says it wants to allow (and what it cannot clearly prohibit) and that which the Regional Planning Boards seek to implement after or through appropriate legislative action…are … Read more

Come At Me, Bro

“Graffiti is one of the few tools you have if you have almost nothing. And even if you don’t come up with a picture to cure world poverty you can make someone smile while they’re having a piss.”   — Banksy, Banging Your Head Against a Brick Wall

ronald-mcdonald_Come_At_Me_Bro_smallThe Union Leader on line this morning featured the headline, “Man gunned down on Manchester street was talented graffiti artist.” Now I am curious. A “Graffiti Artist.”  As for Graffiti, the Queen city is not lacking in it. According to the Manchester Police Website,

Graffiti is a crime. Graffiti is vandalism! Graffiti is a crime in Manchester! The term graffiti is used if it appears on property without permission. The term originated in the late 1960’s although unsolicited markings have been around forever. Each year, millions of dollars are spent

Pro-SB11 PR Campaign Underway…

Supporters of SB 11, the bill that would allow a new layer of bureaucracy for the purpose of taxing and managing intermunicipal water districts, are waging a public relations campaign on the premise that the opponents of the bill are seeing things that are not there.  Unfortunately for them, the real problem is that there is nothing in the bill to prevent any of the things we see.

Call us cynical but we do not trust rules-makers and bureaucrats to imagine limitations on their authority that are not spelled out clearly.  In fact, as proper cynics, we do not even give them much credit for constraining themselves when the language seems clear.  The language in SB11 fails on all counts.

So I have begun my own counter-campaign on that premise, and emailed the entire New Hampshire House Republican email list with the email below.  Feel free to use this premise or one similar as you reach out to your own representatives.

And a reminder.  Water, water rights, property rights, and fair taxation are not partisan issues.   It is your well, your water, your rain and run-off , and your money that could be taxed; no matter what we’d like the words in SB11 to mean, there is no specific language in it that seeks first and foremost to protect the people of New Hampshire.  Until such language does exist this effort must be opposed.

Belknap County Conservative Republicans’ Family Fun Day – interview with Greg Moore

The last interview from the Belknap County Conservative Republicans’ Family Fun Day was with Greg Moore, the Executive Director of the New Hampshire chapter of Americans for Prosperity.  His mission as Exec. Dir., as always, is to reach out to all kinds of groups, current and new (as the BCCR group is) and let them know what AFP is all about and see if there is common ground on which the groups might be able to collaborate.

This is a three part interview (split for time, and at the end, for technical issues (er, bad cable yielding lots of static – and again, apologies to Colette Worseman and Susan Olsen for the time they spent with me graciously doing interviews which will never be heard).

Parts 2 &  3 after the jump:

Oh please……..

“Growing up, I made quite a few myself,” Obama said. “Sometimes I wrote off my own failings as just another example of the world trying to keep a black man down. I had a tendency to make excuses for me not doing the right thing.”

Majority Report on SB152 The Casino Gambling Bill

Will Republians roll the dice on Gambling in New Hampshire

I don’t typically post reports from the House Journal because I am not flush with the time necessary to read them on any sort of regular basis. But the committee vote on SB152, the most recent effort to plop a Casino somewhere on the New Hampshire landscape, was close–and just happened to go my way.  What better incentive than that to report the results of that report…?

…to see what the bipartisan committee saw that inspired them to suggest, not so much that any Casino would be bad for New Hampshire–which is my position–but that SB152 was just a lousy effort at getting one even if you were in favor of it.

So here is the where and why of how the bill fails and should, by Rep Mary Jane Wallner.
