He’s such a pleasant fellow, isn’t he? But I don’t think his Anger Management classes have quite made the grade if you watch his expression at the end. At least he didn’t totally lose control of anger as he did here (scroll down to the middle of the post here starting at 18:00). His message rings hollow especially given how he himself has denigrated fellow Republicans and Gunstock Area Commissioners Peter Ness and Dr. David Strang over and over and over and…well, just call it continuously over months to get them to resign (see my Gunstock videos). And he just bad-mouthed the BCRCExecutive Committee to their faces just before this outburst (video to be up soon).
This is just another Doug Lambert technique in making himself be “the good guy”, the “white as the driven snow dude” (how appropriate!) but he keeps forgetting the sneering attitude he employs while doing so. He really does think he’s rather clever in insulting people to their faces without using their names as in this case (he’s done this often in the past and is resurrecting it once again). He also conveniently forgot to mention how MANY of his posts here on GraniteGrok where he [politically] also took shots at anyone (including LOTS of Republicans) he didn’t like for years. Sorry Doug, you don’t get to wash your hands of your own actions and get away with it.
It will be clear that he’s just posturing when I gather them all up. But I do thank him for reminding me that I had unfinished business – which, I point out to him AGAIN, I didn’t start – Tim Lang did.
That would be current NH State Rep Tim Lang and who is running for NH State Senate. He also cosponsored the amendment to HB1397 which would have removed oversight by anyone of what the Gunstock Area Commission had over the operations of Gunstock Mountain Resort. He has also accepted Union PAC money (via Brodie Deshaies’ Common Sense PAC). He also took umbrage at the fact that I had taken NH State Rep Harry Bean’s LtE to the Daily Sun that said that Republicans need to learn to compromise with Independents and Democrats. Yes, head-scratcher so in my response, I asked Bean several questions that begged “and how do you compromise with THESE Democrat policies?” (near the bottom of the post).
But Lang took exception to that with this email:

As I said here:
Well, that bit about Bean was news to me and after my post had been published. While I get informed about a lot of things, it would be hubristic of me to assume that I know everything and Lang assumed I did. I’m not putting the details in this post but his condition is dicey and prayers go out to him to get better.
So I got called out for something I knew nothing about at the time of my writing. But I still stand by it because if someone puts something out into the public arena, it’s free to be commented on. And I did – and asked a lot of questions about on topics on which he’d compromise – and I would have a hard time to figure HOW to come to ANY compromise on anything. Tim Lang decided to ignore all that with his email when I responded with:

So even though he took note of the post, he declined to defend Bean’s supposition and simply retorted with…hold off a sec. So I asked him more questions:
So, I challenge you NOW, in an abbreviated written fashion rather than our oral version. Here are the same questions that were asked of Harry – now they are yours to answer albeit in a somewhat different construction:
- Given that you were acting in concert with Democrat leaning Citizens for Gunstock group/Citizens for Belknap PAC and laundered money from Democrat leaning Union PACs, how would you vote on a bill that would institute an income tax, a sales tax, or any other broadbased tax?
- Given that you were acting in concert with Democrat leaning Citizens for Gunstock group/Citizens for Belknap PAC and laundered money from Democrat leaning Union PACs – what’s your compromise on the Second Amendment where the Democrats want to put stringent restrictions on citizens bordering on complete civilian disarmement (think David Meuse) – how many of your firearms are you willing to compromise on?
- Given that you were acting in concert with Democrat leaning Citizens for Gunstock group/Citizens for Belknap PAC and laundered money from Democrat leaning Union PACs – How about your compromise on Parental Rights? Both Democrat Congresstwits Kuster and Pappas just voted down legislation, sponsored by Republicans, that would put Parents TOTALLY back into control of the education and health concerns of their children. That members of your “Lang Gang” either voted for or took a walk?
- Abortion? Republicans want to save the life of that unborn child. How can you compromise with Democrats that are perfectly fine with killing it?
- Charter schools? Homeschooling? Other alternatives? Education money to follow the child instead of remaining in a given zip code for teachers unions? What’s your answer?
After all, being a potential constituent, his website is TOTALLY devoid of any substantive information on how he stands on the issues of the day. I am sorry to report that the only answer I received from Lang was this:

You’re concern for Harry is noted.

You made yourself the new center of my attention by emailing me out of the blue – not Harry. No one reading this has any idea what your agenda will be. Unfortunately, too many Republicans have the only thought that he has. He’s forgotten what comes next (rather, doesn’t want to tell us).
Winning is only a precursor; what comes AFTERWARDS is the most important
