New Hampshire is not California. We are not California because with the exception of 2007-2010, we try to avoid letting Democrats run the entire state government. (We’re also not Massachusetts for that same reason.) And this is good, because while Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick has now implemented “cost controls” for Healthcare providers in his state, … Read more
Bill is probably a great guy, and I’m sure he never meant to violate Department of Defense regulations by posting images of himself in uniform on a campaign web site. But that’s not the only thing that caught my eye while I was there. Bill is also guilty of lying by omission. You see, while … Read more
The New Hampshire TEA Party Republican Legislature did a lot more than just eliminate the 800 Million dollar deficit Democrats willingly left behind, while writing a balanced budget, and estimating revenues that came in on target.

WordPress ate my post…. Sorry. I tried to add links from reports released in 2012 to the previous post and WordPress nuked me. I lost some stuff. It was a regular Shakespearean tragedy. But I’m not giving up so let’s try this again. New Hampshire is awesome and despite “TEA party Republicans” eliminating the 800 … Read more
There have been no reports of sexual harassment (that’s Her-Ass-Meant) during President Bill Clinton’s recent drive-by endorsement of New Hampshire Democrat Margret ‘Louisville Slugger’ Hassan. But Clinton did have enough time to say some stuff. “There’s a great plan for the future of the state of New Hampshire: Smoke more, learn less,” Clinton said. You’d think … Read more
Imagine welcoming the political endorsement of a perjurer and accused serial sex offender? Well that’s what Maggie Hassan has done. She is pleased as punch to have the endorsement of former President William Jefferson Clinton of the Lewinsky, cigar, bimbo eruptions, depends on what “is” is fame.

Hey. If we (the TEA party/Right wing activists, etc) are going to get blamed (by left wing radical Democrats) for making the New Hampshire House and Senate write and pass legislation (that reduces spending, taxes, regulation, and increases liberty and freedom), then we damn well deserve credit for this.

I listen to the highly rated “Morning Buzz” radio show on occasion, as I drive to work in the morning (WGIR-Manchester FM 101.1). Over the past few days, the crew has been talking about their invitation and attendance yesterday, to the inauguration of New Hampshire’s Governor, John Lynch. I’ve heard enough. The slobbering and celebrity … Read more
As promised, I now turn to the third reason—actually a "bundle of reasons"—why the new Speaker of the New Hampshire House of Representatives should be Bill O’Brien. But first, I must state that it is not my intent to launch a personal attack against Gene Chandler. He was the last "real" Republican Speaker of the House in 2003 and 2004, and is … Read more
