Jeb Bush – part of the Bush Dynasty.  It certainly seems that the Establishment GOP is rolling out the carpet for him; here in NH, he’s about to be squired around the State on Friday by Congressman Frank Guinta and former and failed NH GOP Chair Fergus “The Fringe” Cullen.  The problem for me is, how is he going to be any different than a Hillary campaign.

Issue #1 – Illegal Immigration.  Jeb wants to reward them (and so does Hillary).  We just went THROUGH a Republican debacle in DC after they all campaigned against Obama’s illegal immigration Executive Order overreach – and what did we end up for a result (ignoring their words which turned out to be as hollow as a dead tree)?

In this clip (starting at 3:54), he’s for it:  Its not a felony, it’s an act of love, drivers licenses for illegals, in state tuition price for illegals, and a pathway to citizenship

So what’s the bottomline? “Heck, I don’t care if you broke the law to get here, have we got stuff I want to give you”!

Sgt Sean Haggerty has made a place for himself with the NH Conservatives crowd – and not necessary a “cool” one.  We DO resent someone who is being paid with our hard earned money advocate against our Rights (re: SB116).  And I WILL go that next point – I think the reverse is wrong, too.  I really don’t believe that someone in government, on the taxpayer dime, should be doing advocacy testimony.  Period.  Not their place and certainly not in their official capacity.  To give a straight laced, fact only report at the behest of our elected leaders?  Yes, and desired in some cases, but it should be completely devoid of any whispers of subjective opinion.  You want to do that – take a day off, show up in civvies, and announce your name and town rather than in uniform and badge (video after the jump).

But here’s another example (reformatted, emphasis mine) – Instapundit: “Taxpayer-Funded U. Wisconsin Chancellor Spends Her Days Lobbying Alumni Against Scott Walker“.

Rebecca Blank, the taxpayer-funded chancellor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, has sent a number of emails to alumni openly lobbying against a budget proposed by Republican Gov. Scott Walker that includes cuts to higher education.  A Feb. 18 email from Blank blatantly implores alumni to call state legislators to complain about the proposed education cuts.

 “If you choose to contact your legislator on behalf of the university, I encourage you to thank them for engaging in an active discussion about the university budget, tell them you recognize that the state is facing a difficult budget situation and that the university must do its share along with other state agencies, but that a budget cut of the magnitude called for in the proposed budget is just too big and will have a significant negative impact on UW-Madison and its students,” Blank propagandizes in the email obtained by The Daily Caller.

“You may benefit from the president’s failure to enforce the law today.  But I’ll make you this promise; there will come a day where you will cry out for the enforcement of the law. There will come a day when you long for the law to be the foundation of this Republic.  So you be careful what you do with the law today, because if you weaken it today, you weaken it forever.

UPDATE: It’s an annoying auto-play video so I’ve just put it after the jump.  You should listen to it because it perfectly encapsulates one of the biggest problems in the country today:

Getting near the end for posting up videos from the .223 Rally – 2015 Defending Your Rights on Saturday – in fact, this is the next to last post to cover them all.  Founder & owner of Government Oversite and now (Yay!) NH State Rep Ed Comeau talks about why he came to NH – he was tired of always having to ask “Nanny, may I” when it came to his Second Amendment Rights.   Also here is NH State Rep Dan Itse, NH’s Constitutional scholar and historian – you can’t figure out where yer goin’ if you don’t know where you’ve been and the make up of that foundational road!

Last call, last post.  Last speaker – that would be me.  Do our Rights come from God, or as CNN commentator Chris Cuomo holds, from men in collective compromises?  Always remember:

The Bigger The Government, the smaller the citizen

And Susan Olsen, organizer of this .223 Rally – 2015 Defending Your Rights event, closed out the afternoon – job well done:

Continuing on with the videos from the “.223 Rally – 2015 Defending Your Rights” rally! One of the most dedicated fighters for liberty is NH State Representative Carolyn McGuire.  Soft spoken should not be taken lightly with her – she means what she says.  On the other end of the spectrum, no one could accuse Kimberly Morin as being “sedate”.  In fact, Ben Sarro introduced her as “Da Fighter!”.  Do NOT cross her – you will find her to be more than a match for any Tasmanian devil in fierceness (and you will see a tad of that in the video):

You know, it just hit me.  I’ve already put up the videos of good, solid and conservative / liberty minded elected officials – this post has two more.  But what I did realize, even as there were other good, solid, and conservative / liberty minded elected officials in the .223 Rally – 2015 Defending Your Rights crowd, I did not see a single one that would have fit the description of “Establishment GOPer”.  Not a single one.  I hear, sometimes, they’re in favor of the Second Amendment….but put themselves out in the freezing cold?  Show their face to staunch supporters?

Show up and support those that had a big effect on the top of the ticket races this past November?  Sorry, no face time with you!

But both of these folks did and they were proud to have done so!  Thanks gents!

No response needed, NH State Senator Andrew Hosmer:

.223 Rally – 2015 Defending Your Rights – Susan Olsen on the NH Dept of Safety arguing against our RightsHow is it that our employees (for that is what Government workers are), paid with our tax dollars, can argue against our Constitutional Rights in front of our lawmakers?  Susan talks about the Letter that the Department of Safety sent in doing exactly that:
