GrokTV Special Interview: Pam Tucker – NH House Deputy Speaker, Candidate NH GOP RNC Committeewoman – Question 1: Why?

Last night, GraniteGrok interviewed Pam Tucker who is the Deputy Speaker of the NH House of Representatives.  She is also running to be the next RNC (Republican National Committee) Committeewoman from NH, as Phyllis Woods is not seeking another term.  Meeting at The Draft in Concord, NH, she graciously took our questions. This is Question … Read more

“Then Sarah Palin tweeted.”

Mini-whine: Well, I was out last nite acquiring another interview and will start processing that video tonite.  And I just completed an audio interview a little bit ago this evening, so I have that to do.  The whine?  Steve beat me to the post I wanted to do on the Bristol Palin post (good on him!) – but I found it via another source:  The Corner and David French, whose wife runs the Patheos website Steve quoted.  David relays a bit of the back story – showing the power of social media as well as the Palin name:

Last week she added a young, single-mother blogger to the site, a person who could reach a wide audience and was experiencing life as a mother in the glare of unusually harsh publicity: Bristol Palin.

As an editor, Nancy often lives in the more mundane world of Internet punditry — posting blogs, correcting typos, monitoring traffic, and managing a group of talented and eclectic writers. But some days are less mundane than others.

Over the weekend, Bristol wrote a post that asked a simple question: “Mr. President, When Should I Expect Your Call?” Noting that President Obama had called Sandra Fluke after Rush Limbaugh’s now-famous insult, Bristol reminds the President that she’s been the target of much worse:

And he quotes what Bristol wrote, replicated in part by Steve’s post (yes, go read his and the actual post).  Then he adds this:

…After Bristol sent the post in, Nancy put it up shortly after midnight on Sunday night.

Nancy tweeted it to her few hundred followers (she and I have a rather pathetic contest for twitter followers; right now I’m barely in the lead with a whopping 776), and Bristol facebooked it. Within hours, it had been shared 8,000 times. Already it was taking off.

And then it exploded (emphasis mine):

Then Sarah Palin tweeted.

ONE Campaign to Rule Them All

I’ve been warning people about ONE Campaign, hapless New Hampshire Republican politicians in particular, for years now.  While they were lining up like fools for photo-ops, I outlined the global government agenda for ONE campaign.   I linked ONE to the UN’s corrupt, anti-liberty, anti-American Millennium development goals.  I even connected ONE to Senator Obama’s shared objective of a mandated tax on American GDP to fund the ONE campaign agenda and others like it (All of that can be found here).

One is just one of many corrupt, global, social justice frontmen for the same old socialist song and dance-the redistribution of other people’s wealth.  Just ask Bono.  He helped found ONE, asks other people to donate to it in large sums, supports those mandated taxes on all GDP to fund that agenda, then runs off to seek a tax haven to avoid…paying twice as much in taxes.

But we are not here today to talk about Bono’s tax hypocrisy.  Left-wing hypocrites are like pigeons in the park.  They are everywhere.  All they do is sh*t on you,  and surround you, look at you sideways and squawk at you until you cough up the free stuff, and then they sh*t on you some more.  (The #Occupy Wall Street freaks are just big pigeons, by the look of things.)

What we are here to talk about today is the corruption of ONE Campaign, and there is more than enough of that to go around.

Bristol Palin – Waiting for Her Phone Call From Obama

As the Democrats fabricated War on Women® continues to unravel under the weight of their own hypocrisy, another salvo has hit their defenses.  Bristol Palin, another casualty of the lefts abuse (with emphasis on Bill Maher the Misogyny Czar) want’s to know “When Should I expect Your Call?” You don’t know my telephone number, but … Read more

BE BREITBART: Right To Know Request – IT and HR records for NH DES employee, Richard de Seve

We’ve already posted a couple of times on the State employee Rickard “Dick” de Seve’ use of taxpayer paid time and computer services (Is A NH Public Employee Using The Internet to Sell his Political Agenda On Your Time?, So, what does the State of NH say about “Using The Internet to Sell his Political Agenda On Your Time?” and An Apology to the NH SEA/SEIU) on the subject, wondering about how a NH State employee (and former lawyer and present chapter VP in the NH SEIU [the Service Employees International Union, the union that represents most union employees employed by the State of NH]), could be posting so many political comments for such a long time on the NH taxpayer dime.

So last week we filed a NH RTK or Right To Know request,  identified in most other parts of the country as an FOIA or Freedom of Information Act request.   (Grokster Steve and I have been joined by Ed Naile of CNHT -the Coalition of New Hampshire Taxpayers in the effort.) We asked for not only HR records (to establish when he was supposed to be working and if he had indeed read and signed the department internet use policy, and/or any warnings that were constructed based on his use of NH State Property.  But that’s not all we asked for…

Having a MAHVELOUS day of governance, eh sport?

I missed this on Friday, and although I generally don’t repost an entire post by someone else, it loses something if I don’t.  From The Campaign Spot (I have reformatted it slightly): Nearly one-third of the nation’s drivers now fork out $4 or more for a gallon of gasoline. The cost of living is suddenly … Read more

So, Obama wants to make fun of a dead war hero and a past President, Rutherford B. Hayes? And gets the quote wrong?

Obama said this about Civil War General (and hero) during a campaign speech: One of my predecessors, Rutherford B. Hayes, reportedly said about the telephone, ‘It’s a great invention, but who would ever want to use one?‘ That’s why he’s not on Mount Rushmore. Reality? Stephen A. Hayes, a great-great-grandson of the former president and … Read more

An Apology to the NH SEA/SEIU

No one understands the problems of perception like the Democrat Party.  They invest a good deal of time and money into hiding what they are truly up to.  Almost as much time as they spend painting pictures of their opponents for the main stream media to hang on your living room walls.  So we should not be surprised when a prominent member of the New Hampshire SEA, a chapter president with the local SEIU, sees the kind of perception issues he creates when we uncovered months, even years of online comments, posted during office hours, while he was supposed to be performing state business, on the taxpayer dime, from the Department of Environmental Services, where he is employed by you and I.

Perception is a problem but not nearly as much of a problem as reality.

HHS to Insurers – Required to Cover Sterilization

Margret Sanger, the founder of planned parenthood, cut her eugenic teeth on encouraging the use of contraction–giving it out herself if I’m not mistaken–for the purpose of wiping out inferior classes of people.  Lesser persons would be able to have sex without having babies and would eventually fall below replacement rates of fertility and simply … Read more

Notable Quote – from the Eldest’s T-Shirt

OK, so it’s no one knowable that has it.  But I smiled when I saw it. TACT Is for people not witty enough to be sarcastic BTW?  The Eldest has no observable tact unless I poke him in the ribs.  So if you know him, you know the validity of this operative phrase: “like a … Read more

We Just Learned The Proper Way To Cancel Your Carbonite Subscription

Following my post on David Friend and Carbonite’s likley ties to Media Matters and the lefts AstroTurf factory, I received this comment from Mark in California,

Great article. I just tried to cancel my service to Carbonite and when I told them it was due to the advertising pull on Limbaugh, they said, “too late, your service has been restarted.  If you had told me it was due to a technical error or problem with Carbonite I could cancel your service and offer a refund.”  I asked for a Manager and some guy named Jim got on and played the corporate policy line on me. When I asked who his boss was he told me David Friend.

I cancelled the service back on the 7th of March knowing my subscription was set to run out on 3/18.  Carbonite claims our e chat was not a sufficient request for cancelling service. However after telling me a technical problem would be sufficient, you tend to think this is political more than anything else. I hope their stock slide continues. Thanks for posting the alternative companies to this sham organization.

Emphasis mine.

Carbonite sounds desperate, clinging to their subscribers by all means possible.  Even if it means being as dishonest to their customers as David Friend seems to have been about pulling his advertising off Rush Limbaugh’s radio program.  But there is a lesson learned here.

“I did not run for this office just to get back to where we were. I ran for this office to get us to where we need to be.”

That was a line from one of Obama’s recent campaign speeches.  Now if you took it at face value, it sounds like what any politician would be.  Further, most Americans, steeped in the traditional values of Americana would do the “fill in the blank” – and this is exactly how that phrase was supposed to be taken.  But how come the Media never asks  “”and where is ‘where’?”

“I ran for this office to get us to where we need to be.”

What’s the context?  This:  “we are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America.”  But we know where he is going – he’s told us.  “We Can’t Wait”…if Congress won’t act…his use of Executive Orders….his agencies and departments choosing to make rulings, regulations, and statutes that far exceed their authorizing legislation.  Add to that an almost complete regard to rulings of the court system. Obama rails on the outside, but with a smile on the inside.  You see, it is an inside job.  Added by Harry Reid and the other Progressive and Democrat Socialists in the Senate and the House, they are making Congress irrelevant (what is it, 1200 days since the Senate passed an operating budget?).   Government has grown larger, has inserted itself into almost every aspect of our lives because of the actions of past and present Democrats – and Republicans.  Under the guise of “helping” and “we have DO something!”, bit by bit,  Govt ended up doing more and more.

Expectations are being set.  If you know no different, then what is the loss?  We still are the Land of the Free, right?  Er….sigh….is the water boiling yet?

I think that the most succinct definition of Obama’s “where we need to be” was here:

What was That Obama Said About Production Being Up?

I think Mr. Obama said something about us drilling more now than before he was president.  Drilling for what, Bull S**t? And just to reiterate a point I, and many others, have made previously about “subsidies, tax breaks, and special Federal deals for energy companies, and let me add ‘any’ companies–don’t just stop subsidies for … Read more

Bill Maher: A Cultural Icon…Not!

“An effeminate education weakens both the mind and the body.”  —Edgar Quinet

Chief Lefty Kool-Aid Drinker

So How about that Bill Maher? He calls Governor Sarah Palin a “c*nt and gets a pass on it from the Hollywood elite, so say my fellow conservatives. Me? not so much. My impression of Bill Maher is that he the type of male species, folks from all walks of life find distasteful and elect not to give Maher’s rants too much face time, letting him stand as the elitist pandering retard he truly is.  Is it any great surprise that he would equivocate in comparisons to Rush Limbaugh’s recent analysis on Sandra Fluke?

Carbonite CEO’s Real Problem is Not Rush Limbaugh It’s His Liberalism

Why did David Friend really pull his companies advertising from the Rush Limbaugh program?  We are meant to believe that it was because of what Limbaugh said about Sandra Fluke.  That the words ‘slut’ and ‘prostitute’ were discussion terms he was not interested in associating  with himself or his company.  But this is coming from a man who gives his own cash-money to groups like MoveOn.org, and a host of Democrat candidates.  People who denigrate women on an almost daily basis.  He wasn’t outraged at all,  and as it turns out, was merely ‘activated’ like some suicidal sleeper agent.

Recent reports have revealed that the entire ‘advertiser outrage’ was planned and orchestrated by Media Matters.  Carbonite yanking it’s advertising was just part of the show.
