The scandal that wont go away keeps getting better. It looks like we can now speculate as to what Obama was doing while his Libyan Ambassador was under assault. Plotting his political out. Via Gateway Pundit: I think there is a bigger story here that will in time come out. The biggest scandal of all, … Read more
Many think not: Will the IRS eventually give the TEA Party another huge testosterone (altho, sometimes the estrogen ladies of the TEA Party of the ones to be feared when riled) boost? Especially when it starts handing out all of the fees and fines if you DARE cross their line? Remember, while IRS bureaucrats can … Read more
During the Belknap County Conservative Republicans’ Family Fun Day (at least, the time I was there), the Chair of the Blackwater Conservative Republican Committee (and fellow Grokster) Susan Olsen addressed the crowd on the topic and importance of the Second Amendment: See more from Susan both here on the ‘Grok and at Protect the … Read more
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).
After doing GrokTALK! first thing in the morning in Concord, I headed up to Laconia to Funspot where the Belknap County Conservative Republicans were having their Family Fun Day – under the tent, free food, and opening up their arms to the public at large to talk about the Republican Party Platform, Constitutional values, and conservative values. One example of their literature contained information on their mission, who they are, where they stand, and an answer to those that disagree that their group should even exist (full info after the jump). While I was there, I took the opportunity to get a couple of interviews. This first one with is long time conservative activist and co-founder of the group, Don Walker:
Technical note: normally I just use a shotgun mic on the camera but the ambient noise level was just too high for that configuration. Instead, we were wearing headsets due to the noise level and then trying to pipe that into the camera via a soundboard – something I have seldomly done in the past. Post-processing, it became clear that one of the cables used to do this went bad – I apologize to Susan Olsen and Colette Worseman as their interviews were too static-y to use, and I had to edit Greg Moore’s near the end as well.
You know, I can’t remember the last time that the “official” Belknap County Republican Committee had such an event – estimates were that between 125 – 175 people came over at some point during the day.
CNN’s Piers Morgan, the Brit Twit who decided that taking on Pro-Second Amendment folks during the run up to the Senate’s attempt to pass stricter gun laws to boost his ratings (er, #FAIL), is seemingly having a change of mind about it all. You see, after poo-pooing (or screaming, taking your pick) that that these … Read more
Note: be sure to listen to the resounding applause he got at this Congressional hearing concerning the IRS scandal of “punish your enemies” [Obama] in presenting actual Tyranny to those groups and individuals that expressed a political thought against the ruling regime of President Obama and the Progressives he represents.
Listen to the description of the IRS that is given by Kelly and ask yourself:
“This reconfirms everything that the American public believes. This is a HUGE blow to the faith and trust the American people have in their government.
Is there ANY limit to the scope of where you folks can go?….Is there anything at all? Is there anyway that we can ask you, is there any question that you shouldn’t have asked, Mike? Goodness, how much money do you have in your wallet? Who do you get emails from? Whose sign do you put up in your front yard?
This is a tax question? You don’t think that’s intimidating? it’s sure as hell intimidating!”
“The batwing-shaped craft, known as the X-47B Unmanned Combat Air System, or UCAS, on May 14 was catapulted 11:18 a.m. local time from the deck of the USS George H.W. Bush in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Virginia Beach, Va., according to the service. …The drone, made by Northrop Grumman Corp., was controlled … Read more
For many, the answer is “er, somewhere in there”. For others, it’s an inside joke (watch and find out). I agree with the Professor – what has come to pass was never written at all. This is splendid discussion of what I have posited in the past – that perhaps it is time to bring … Read more
I don’t watch Jay Leno too often lately – perhaps with this, I should. Powerline (H/T) called this “delightful”. I did find amusing and caught myself laughing at times and found it to be one of those “nice” types of videos for a 5 minute view of someone taken by surprise – and then “going … Read more
We’ll be talking about this tomorrow on GrokTALK! – (Podcast is posted on Sunday.) Whether you listen to our dicussion or not, find some time to watch this if you can. It is long so watch it in segments if you must. But please try to make time to watch at least some of it.
We should keep track of who among our Democrat ‘friends’ comes to the aid of Hillary Clinton. It is known that she knew it was an attack not a protest. A terrorist attack. It involved al Qaeda. That there were assets in range to help. And she did nothing. Obama did nothing. Unless orchestrating a cover-up counts as doing something. For weeks at a time. On National Television In ads played in foreign countries. Even in front of the caskets of those who died as a result of their….um…leadership.
“We’ve seen rage and violence directed at American embassies over an awful Internet video that we had nothing do to with.”
Make note of who serves the left’s masters like ideological chattel so they can all go down together.
Terrafugia already has a flying car – a startup having done what many more well funded could not. However, it does look more plane than car. Now they have a better idea – they are talking about one that comes even closer to a real flying car (more car looking than plane looking). No, the … Read more
On This Week with George Stephanopolous, the round table turned to gun control and politics. Mary Matilan, a long term Republican political operative and strategists, said that she had just done something because of how the Progressives have poisoned the debate on guns. While she is explaining, listen for the word “Good!”. Yeah, listen to the nervous laughter over the attempt to cover up this “national TV gaffe”.
Exhibit A. Barack Obama. My, he looks so uncomfortable “skeet” shooting (one of those photo-ops trying to show him trying to “be one of the guys”). Then there is a guy who actually knows how to shoot a long gun; of course, it’s the guy from Texas: It was unfortunate how his run for President … Read more
…he finds out that, thanks to Obama, he can’t get a short-barrel AR-15 OR a .45 automatic. Damn. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=NhbV06V1yQo
