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?

John Lynch Gets What’s Been Coming

Blogging can be a weird hobby.  You never know when something you’ve planted will grow and bear fruit.  But back on May 28th of 2010 I planted this seed.

NH 9-12 Liberty Picnic – General John Stark Birthday Bash – Report Part 6: CAT and NRA

Last Saturday, the Rochester and DOver 9-12 Project groups held a picnic at the Guppy Pool complex in Dover, NH. A number of speakers were there addressing the crowd. Two of these were Matt Murphy and Steve DeMascus.

Matt Murphy is a friend of mine; a long term activist who has served in a number of capacities in a number of advocacy groups.  He has just joined the NRA where he will helping to mobilize NRA members and other Second Amendment loving folks and inform them as to the Second Amendment leanings and history off the candidates in both NH First and Second Districts (one of the few States in which this is happening – this should tell you something about the current incumbents).

This is Steve DeMascus who owns a series of martial arts studios here in New England.  He is starting a new venture: Citizens Against Terrorism (CAT); listen up!

Obamamturism of the day

Hot Air has an Obamaturism of the day, an example of how or why on the job training is probably a bad idea for POTUS, and I’d suggest also, how the training isn’t working.  Ed Morrissey posts these on Hot Air and at the end of every week you can vote on a weekly winner.  This weeks is here.

There is also list of past winners of the week, which provides an interesting time line of Obama actions destined to make a few of you shake your heads.  I was just scrolling through it, and figured you might find it amusing.

 

See the list…on the jump.

The Republican Liberty Caucus of New Hampshire Endorses Rep. Bill O’Brien for Speaker of the House

The position of Speaker of the House of Representatives in the Free State of New Hampshire is one of the most important political positions in our state, second only to the governorship itself. The Speaker is generally one of the leaders of his or her political party in the state, and very much helps guide the party from a philosophical standpoint as well as being a legislative tactician. This is why it’s such an important position.

Rep. Bill O’Brien, out of the town of Mont Vernon, is the state representative destined to take that position. Accordingly…

…the RLCNH has just mailed out the following letter to every Republican running as a candidate for the NH State House. Those who prevail over their Democrat opponents will join the emerging GOP majority in New Hampshire, and will vote to elect a new Speaker of the House in Concord. There are many reasons they should vote for Rep. Bill O’Brien, for whom I have great respect and admiration. The letter that follows
details some of them….

Yes Virgina, There Is A Tax Man

Hodes Will Shake You DownThe first thing you have to understand is that to support Mr. Hodes position on letting tax cuts expire you have to be of the opinion that your property is only yours because the government allows you to keep it.   This is a pillar of democrat fiscal policy.  It explains why they berate anyone who dares allow a disfavored class to keep their own earnings.  The phrase "irresponsible tax cuts" or any similar rhetoric, proliferate throughout the lefts discourse.   So at its core the Hodes position is that the legal acquisition of wealth is little more than a royal indulgence that could expire at any moment.  Put more simply, democrats cannot believe in individual property rights which should be a problem for anyone running for elected office in a constitutional republic but for some reason has not been a significant impediment.
