North Country “Wood Welfare”

September 26, 2018July 6, 2018 Steve MacDonald

The legislature passes a policy that drives up the cost of a product or service to keep a favored business or industry afloat. Without this protection money, those who benefit may no longer be able to enjoy the lifestyle to which they’ve become accustomed.

This is the story of the green energy business. New Hampshire’s biggest player in this redistribution scheme is the timber industry which peddles “low grade” leftovers to biomass plants that convert it into expensive electricity the police-state forces on ratepayers.

Governor Sununu recently vetoed two bills passed by the legislature to foment this money laundering scheme and the “former” recipients of that plunder are not happy.

Chris Sununu’s New Hampshire Survey

September 26, 2018July 3, 2018 Steve MacDonald

Governor Sununu would like your input. To collect it he has an online survey. Perhaps you already received the link via email? If not you can take the Survey Here.

So what sort of questions will you find? Here’s a sample.

Governor Sununu Gets Punked By Boy In A Man Bun

September 26, 2018June 27, 2018

New voter rights “Super-enfranchised” student voters activist, Ben Kremer, DOB 02/02/1997 of 15 Goulart Drive in Bozrah, Connecticut 06334-1114 played our New Hampshire Governor like a one string banjo in this YouTube video.

Super-enfranchised voter Ben Kremer had a small statement he wanted to deliver to our governor about how much he wanted to make sure his voting rights to be registered in two states were upheld. Sadly, Governor Sununu agreed.

Family Separation Week – Governor Sununu Carries The Left’s Water

If you’ve been following us for Family Separation Week, you will know that the entire “separating families” narrative is hypocritical politized partisan progressive rubbish.

I guess Scala or Galdieri haven’t heard the latest, have they?

Social conservatives will grumble, but they don’t appear to have the juice to make the popular governor pay the price for this,” Scala added. “There just aren’t enough voters, even in a statewide Republican primary, who will vote on these issues. That was true when it came to repealing gay marriage, and it’s true today.”

-University of New Hampshire political science professor Dante Scala

“He feels like he is comfortably ahead enough that he can afford to lose a few social conservative votes,” Galdieri said.

-Saint Anselm College political science professor Christopher Galdieri

It may be amusing, both ways, what with the scuttlebutt that has been part and parcel of all the inbound calls and emails I received yesterday and today. When the idea started up, everyone that either mentioned it or heard it basically said: “yup, we could get behind that, RIGHT NOW”.

NH Dems to Sununu on Advancing Their Political Priorities – Sorry, But It’s Not Enough

September 26, 2018June 10, 2018 Steve MacDonald

There is no shortage of exposition on this blog site about the wasted effort on the part of Socially liberal Republicans to appease the left. This penchant culminated Friday when the Governor ‘quietly’ signed two bills that advance the Left’s cultural Marxist agenda putting rank and file Republican reelections at risk and by extension Gov. Sununu’s as well.

As I noted here. “Mr. Sununu needs to consider what happens to New Hampshire if he signs HB1319 because he won’t be the only Republican who suffers.”

Compelled Leadership = Our Government for Sale

September 26, 2018June 8, 2018 Op-Ed

By Ken Eyring

NH is open for business. But not like you may think.

When (then) Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi was campaigning to “sell” the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) to the American people, she said, “We have to pass the Bill to see what’s in it.” She wasn’t kidding. The ACA contained many unknowns. It was vaguely written and delegated the specifics and interpretations of the law to be defined by unelected bureaucrats AFTER Obamacare became law. The rest is history.

With the ideological Transgender “Bathroom Bill” HB1319, New Hampshire’s “Republican” Governor, Chris Sununu, is modeling his leadership after Democrat Speaker Pelosi.

Grok Poll – Will You Vote for Gov. Sununu After He Advanced The Radical Democrat Agenda?

September 26, 2018June 8, 2018 Steve MacDonald

It’s sad to say but New Hampshire’s ‘Republican’ Governor, Chris Sununu just signed two bills that should be challenged in court. One is a gag order that violates free speech and rights of conscience. The other deprives women of privacy in sex-specific spaces (not to mention a host of other issues). All to appease a sliver of the population that will never vote for him anyway.

Just A Reminder To Gov. Sununu About What HB1319 Will Do If He Signs It…

Too Bad Frank Edelblut Won’t Run For Governor This Year…

September 26, 2018June 2, 2018 Steve MacDonald

Originally posted May 11th, 2018

In 2016 Mr. Sununu barely survived a primary win against Frank Edelblut. Gov. Sununu offered a job as the state commissioner of Education to Frank, and he may be the best one we’ve had in decades. So we can give Chris credit for listening when someone tells him what might be a smart move for him politically.

That’s important because Frank doesn’t strike me as the sort of guy who would undercut his “boss” in that circumstance so I don’t see him accepting any offer or encouragement to primary Governor Sununu in 2018. But if Chris Sununu signs HB1319, Frank would win easily.

There’s a message in that reality. Here’s another one.

From Cornerstone Action: The Gender Bills Are On You, Governor Sununu

September 26, 2018May 23, 2018 Op-Ed

By Cornerstone:

Chris Sununu is no victim. He is a man of purpose and intention. It took such a person to wrest control of the State House from the Democrats who had held the corner office for so long.

And now, as he is poised to sign destructive legislation on gender, he and his surrogates are putting out the message that opponents of these bills had “terrible messaging,” and that the “terrible messaging” was why the bills landed on the Governor’s desk.

Message: it’s your fault, people. It shouldn’t have gotten here.

Mr. Sununu, shame on you.

Republican Legisalture Gives NH Gov. Another Opportunity to Redistribute Wealth

September 26, 2018May 20, 2018 Steve MacDonald

The NH House and Senate have delivered three ‘energy bills’ to Governor Sununu that favor so-called green generation that drives up electric rates. One (SB446) expands net metering which means more pricey power from a wider range of sources. The second (SB365) prop up wood-burning plants. The third (SB577) subsidizes the Berlin Bio-Mass plant. All three divert money via higher rates to other people’s pockets.

At least one of them claims to save jobs, but as armchair economists know this doesn’t happen in a vacuum. The state through legislative force is taking money from the marketplace (job creators, consumers, and even municipalities) to prop up their mandates. Money that would otherwise find more productive uses.

Maybe Chris Sununu Can Get Re-Elected if He Signs HB1319, But What About Everyone Else?

Status report: the gender identity bill (HB 1319) and therapy ban bill (HB 587) will be on the Governor’s desk soon, but first they have to go through a process called “enrollment.” This is a bureaucratic process that could take anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks.

Lack of Character in the Corner Office

September 26, 2018May 13, 2018 Op-Ed

By Ken Eyring

George Washington was a reluctant, selfless first President. He put his personal life on hold to serve as our nation’s first leader. He could have served as America’s President for life but didn’t. Having fought for the Rights and virtues that were written in the Declaration of Independence, and subsequently, in our Constitution, George Washington genuinely understood their meaning and their values. When his service as President of our country was over, he returned home to resume his civilian life. He was a true public servant – and not a career politician. George Washington put what was best for our country ahead of his personal interests.

Our founding fathers were acutely aware that this selfless form of service to our Government would be the greatest means to serve the American people.

Regrettably, George Washington’s virtues (and those of our Founding Fathers) are now only found in a few elected representatives… and NH’s Governor Chris Sununu is not one of them. Instead, Mr. Sununu is more interested in being re-elected to the Governor’s office for life, rather than respecting the GOP Platform and the promises he made during his campaign (view 29:13 of this debate).

NH Dems Blame Koch Brothers for Sununu Refusing To Advance Undercover Tax Scheme

September 26, 2018April 22, 2018 Steve MacDonald

I think it’s kind of cute that the NH Democrats continue to pretend this had anything to do with offering Family Medical Leave Insurance (FMLI) to New Hampshire Families. Or that Governor Sununu would accept “FMLI” in any form the legislature coughed up.

Here governor, sign this thing that happens to have family medical leave insurance in the name or else we’ll call you names and blame the Koch Brothers.

He didn’t so that’s what they did.
