Rep. Kanzler is a Democrat from the town of North Conway, New Hampshire. He is (recently) famous for trying to make a distinction between an income tax and a tax on your wages. As it turns out, that is not the only thing he’s confused about. Campaign finance as it relates to election law seems to include a deficit as well.

Shaheen Received Money from IRS Employees Union
Open Secrets identifies the National Treasury Employees Union, which covers the IRS, as Liberal. Go figure?
They only donate to Democrats, which includes New Hampshire Senator Jeanne Shaheen, according to this recent press release…
Senate Democrats received more than $570,000 from IRS Union
Washington, D.C. – This week news broke that Senate Democrats were guilty of pressuring the IRS to target many of the conservative groups that the embattled agency now stands accused of doing. But, a closer look reveals further evidence of Jeanne Shaheen’s feigning outrage: Shaheen was reaping the benefits from Democrats’ close relationship with the IRS, receiving $5,000 from the IRS Employees Union.
“While Democrats were pushing the IRS to target conservatives and other political enemies, their campaigns benefited from more than half a million dollars in campaign contributions from the IRS union,” said NRSC Communications Director Brad Dayspring. “After years of pressuring the IRS to crackdown on their political opponents, Jeanne Shaheen and her Democratic colleagues must be honest with taxpayers and return the IRS union’s contributions immediately.”
Senator Shaheen has been backtracking, back-peddling, disavowing any partisanship on the 501(c)(4) IRS scandal, but given how partisan she is, that’s hard to swallow. you’d be hard pressed to find her supporting the rights of TEA party groups anywhere, let alone New Hampshire.
So would you be surprised to know that she isn’t the only hyper-partisan New Hampshire Democrat who has taken issue with third party issue advocacy and targeted TEA Party groups (though not in writing to the IRS–that we are aw are of) and has also taken money from their union.
Is NH Superior Court Justice John Lewis’ Wife Named Cindy? (Updated and bumped)
[Update: Yes, Virgina, Democrat donor Cindy Lewis, IS Judge Lewis’ wife. I wonder what other left wing connections we will find if we keep looking?]
Judge John ‘The Fixer” Lewis threw the State constitution under the bus when he announced Monday that, ‘Hell yeah out of state students with no plans to remain in New Hampshire can and should vote here…even on amendments to the New Hampshire State Constitution.
Nothing quite like a judge who is probably sworn to protect it, doing their part to make sure anyone from anywhere gets to vote on what goes in it.
In the interest of public disclosure, seeing as this particular judge from Durham, very promptly decided the matter in the favor of left leaning advocacy groups representing a traditionally Democrat voting block, wishing to exert outside influence on local elections, I went looking for some campaign donation history on the Lewis family.
If Cindy Lewis of Durham NH is Judge Lewis’ wife, well we’ve got something to talk about.
