The Bill Binnie of NH CD-1?

Sean Mahoney is so politically popular that he has apparently had to loan himself some more money.  The Bill Binnie of NH-01 will have given his own campaign close to one million dollars.  Will that push him over the 90% self funded mark?  He was at 86% last time I did the math.  We’ll have … Read more

Obama’s “Real” Katrina

Do we need to bring our own weather stripping or does Obama supply it?Unemployment is up "unexpectedly."  It is up because the feds extended benefits and people came out of hiding to collect it.  That means very little has changed. Well, that’s not entirely true.  Add several trillion dollars in new and improved debt with job killing action, and a year of left wing rhetoric about how every bill that passed through congress was a jobs bill—

“Naming this pot hole after the ditch diggers daughter will create or save 850 Ka-trillion jillion jobs.”

—and we discover once again that the government can’t create meaningful jobs for American families even when it hires ditch diggers (or their more modern equivalent, home weatherizers).

Of course Obama is still working the "it could be worse shtick" which is predicated on a concept nonexistent during Republican administrations but no one is buying it.

 He’s only trying to save a few Senate seats because there can be no creating them.

Our Country is in the Hands of People without Insight..

…and without understanding. From an article at American Thinker, "The Party of Know-Nothings":

"From Geithner to Jarrett, all of Obama’s advisors have one thing in common: they have devoted their lives to the expansion of government. They believe — quite ‘passionately,’ as Axelrod has put it — that government is the solution to America’s problems….

"Most ordinary human beings know a great deal more than Obama’s circle of advisors. They understand that it is the private sector, not government, that produces goods and services. Instinctively, they know there’s something wrong with the idea that government ‘creates’ jobs….

Hodespocrisy– It’s Mr. Crowley

Paul Hodes knows Joe Crowley. He accepted a $2000.00 campaign donation from Crowley’s Job’s Opportunities & Education PAC. Crowley is the DCCC’s finance chairman which is actually kind of humorous given the ethics charges against him.

Another endorsement for Jack Kimball: Seacoast Freedom Network

The Boyd’s Go To Court

Duhhhhh...Jon Wesley and Theonia Boyd were in court to face charges related to an underage drinking party in Weare at which they were the "grown ups.".  As professors of Psychiatry and Pathology, there innocence hinges on their claim that they were "unaware any teenagers were drinking" the night of June 6th, this according to statements by Theonia Boyd.

I’d like to suggest that they ask for a refund on their, what must have been very expensive educations.

Here we have two Harvard medical professors having at least some familiarity with the college culture, from both personal experience and professional exposure, claiming expertise in the fields of Psychiatry and pathology, and yet it never occurred to them that people under the legal drinking age, congregated enmasse at a graduation party, at a private residence, might consume alcohol?

Let me guess.  College age kids don’t have sex either?

Morons.

Another Amended Filing in CD-1

Is it absurd to think that a guy who earned almost $400,000.00 last year, and probably something similar in preceding years, would have no additional income to declare to the Federal election Commission.  No savings accounts, no IRA’s no investments of any kind?

How about a guy who was also a lobbyist at least somewhat familiar with the election laws about money in politics?

Well don’t act surprised because NH-01 candidate Rich Ashooh will have to amend his FEC filing.  It appears he failed to list all his "secret" bank accounts on his original filing.  In fact, the filing fails to list any accounts, no investments, funds, savings, nothing–just his salary income, his mortgage, and the boards and committees on which he sits.  Rich Ashooh has no savings or investments? Where’s the false outrage?

Making Excuses For Mahoney

The Mahoney supporters seem unwilling to answer to the charge that Sean is playing games with his principles. 

Let me break down the problem as quickly as I can.

Mr. Mahoney is on the board of a foundation that has recently (as in since 2008) given upwards of $160,000.00 dollars to pro-abortion groups and abortion advocates.  But Mr. Mahoney is pro-life.  So to address this contradiction we shouldn’t really address it at all.

My favorite excuse so far is that Sean never inhaled.  That is to say that some supporters claim he may not have known or did not approve that spending personally.  Maybe, but he never approved the spending in the GOP that drove him to abandon his position as a committeeman on principle.  Why hold the GOP leadership to one standard, and the New Hampshire Charitable foundation (NHCF) leadership to another?  And more importantly, if Sean did not know about all that abortion money, despite his position on the board, how can we in good conscience send a guy to DC to look out for us when he can’t even smell the blood in the water at the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation?

Who owns you? The State does – thanks to Obama

Have to admit, between Kagan’s refusal to answer the question of "Can the Federal government force you to eat 3 fruits and veggies a day" and President Obama and his cast of socialists forcing each of us to buy something at THEIR behest (vs the freedom of each of us choosing for ourselves), Rep. Steve … Read more

President Obama: It isn’t what you say, it’s all about what you and your Sorry Socialist Society are doing…

Think I’m kidding?  Back in February, he was quoted as saying:

“You would be hard-pressed to identify a piece of legislation that we have proposed out there that, net, is not good for businesses,”…

…“We are pro-growth,” Obama said. “We are fierce advocates for a thriving, dynamic free market.”

Yeah, given the absolutely anemic economy, President "Never-worked-in-the-Private-Sector" Obama has certainly provided absolutely stellar (stellar, I tell you!) leadership.  Frankly, it is HIS policies, just like the FDR’s 70 years ago, that have locked things up into "stalled mode". Here’s a reaction to those words said a mere 6 months ago that can be summed up in a single word: uncertainty

…Mr. Loeb’s views, irrespective of their validity, point to a bigger problem for the economy: If business leaders have a such a distrust of government, they won’t invest in the country. And perception is becoming reality.

Just last week, Paul S. Otellini, chief executive of Intel, said at a dinner at the Aspen Forum of the Technology Policy Institute that “the next big thing will not be invented here. Jobs will not be created here.”

Mr. Otellini has overseen two big acquisitions in the last two weeks — the $7.7 billion takeover of the security software maker McAfee and the $1.4 billion deal for the wireless chip unit of Infineon Technologies. If he is true to his word, those deals will most likely lead to job cuts in the United States, not job creation.

…But it seems clear that he wrote the letter because so much of his fund’s investments were being driven by the impact of politics. It appears he is no longer betting that a chief executive will make his numbers; he’s betting on what legislation Congress will pass next…

Mr. Mahoney’s Contradiction On The Right To Life

Ronald Reagan believed in the right to life.  Sean Mahoney, who makes the claim that he came to the Republican Party under Ronald Reagan (before he and his checkbook flirted with the democrat party) has this to say about life on his campaign site.

Sean Mahoney is pro-life and will work to protect the lives of the unborn when he is in Congress. In addition, Sean Mahoney will work to promote healthy, pro-life option to abortion, like adoption. Sean Mahoney believes every human life is sacred and that the federal government has a responsibility to protect those lives.

This seems like a solid enough statement, and Sean seems proud of this position but that’s all he has to say.  So can he back it up in principle?  Principle, if you remember was part of what he claims drove him to abandon his GOP committeeman position a few weeks before announcing his run for Senate–no wait, Governor–no that’s not it, I mean congress.  So can his pro-life claims be backed up on principle?

Let’s Regulate Barney Frank’s Pay

Posted by David Boaz “Rep. Barney Frank, chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, said Tuesday that he will hold a hearing this fall to examine whether regulators are being tough enough in curbing pay practices at Wall Street firms that can lead to excessively risky practices,” writes Zachary Goldfarb in the Washington Post. Hmmm. “Pay practices that can … Read more
