Hey Lefty? Wassup With the Health Care Waivers?
Here’s a nice video to get you primed up and ready to de-fang a union near you. It’s all about ObamaScare and the Democrat-Crony Waiver wire. Unions, Democrats, Hypocrites, Together.
A Funding “Solution” For Democrats Concerned about Budget Cuts
Remember all that stuff we didn’t have to have in the New Hampshire budget before 2006 when the democrats started piling it up into what has become our Billion dollar budget deficit? I don’t either. I’m not even sure what they spent it on which is why I am convinced I can do without it. All this caterwauling is clearly just cover for keeping the bloated bureaucracy alive so they can milk it for union campaign contributions.
Hillary Clinton Edited Out Of ‘Iconic’ Photo
(First a Note: This is not the picture in question. It’s better)
That’s the Yahoo! News headline. Hillary Edited Out of Iconic Photo. Though I’m not particularly concerned about that. I’m more interested in the media narrative about a staged photo. The word iconic keeps popping up as an adjective to describe this "piece of…history."
Well, Iconic is defined by dictionary dot com as…
-Adj,
1. relating to, resembling, or having the character of an icon.
2. (of memorial sculptures, esp those depicting athletes of ancient Greece) having a fixed conventional style.
OK. Not much to work with there. How about Icon then?
| — n | |
| 1. | Also: ikon a representation of Christ, the Virgin Mary, or a saint, esp one painted in oil on a wooden panel, depicted in a traditional Byzantine style and venerated in the Eastern Church |
| 2. | an image, picture, representation, etc |
| 3. | a person or thing regarded as a symbol of a belief, nation, community, or cultural movement |
| 4. | a person regarded as a sex symbol or as a symbol of the latest fashion trends |
| 5. | a pictorial representation of a facility available on a computer system, that enables the facility to be activated by means of a screen cursor rather than by a textual instruction |
Which of these five do you think the media is shooting for?
Given the direction of public education, I think we will have to amalgamate these into a common perception. Something that fits the modern, western, collective unconscious, or in this case the media narrative about the current administration. Iconic implies a historical moment of great importance destined to define our nation and it’s leaders (so -depicted) for generations to come. Think- Sputnik moment!
Well lets work with that.
Quick Note To Those Seeking A Reasoned Political Debate
The first step would be to advance a theory where government didn’t have its fingers in every single pie. If the state left more decisions to local and individual control there would be a lot less to debate, and less heated rhetoric, because it would be none of the political classes damn business.
Follow The Big Blue Bread Crumbs
Democrats are hypocrites. Need more proof, just look to Obama care, and the billions it has handed out to big business, Big Union business in particular Yes, a union is a huge business, one that donates tens of millions to democrats.
Shea-Porter To Face Democrat Primary
The Concord Monitor is reporting that Portsmouth businesswoman Joanne Dowdell intends to challenge former Congresspersonista Carol SEIU-Porter for a shot at Frank Guinta in 2012.
On Missing Chris Matthews
You should read the entire post by Greg Opelka here (Breitbart’s Big Journalism.com), because it is about the left wings tunnel vision on the racism narrative, but before you do that I wanted to share a snipped from that post that borders on brilliant. It is the kind of writing I aspire to (missing miserably and often) so when I find it I have to share it.
No Labels – Why Are All Their “Leaders” Leftists?
No Labels, the latest of many left wing funded efforts to drag the right into the middle and the middle leftward, is looking for you to help them spread their message. But before you drop your values, abandon your principles, and jump into the center, you might want to know something about their latest pitchman, or should I say woman, Catherine “Kiki” McLean.
Pelosi Doesn’t Want To Fix It
Pelosi stood against reforming a bankrupt retirement scheme, and now she is taking the same tack here: Medicaid should not be reformed lest it appear as if it needs reform.
Meet Terie “Billion Dollar Deficit” Vu.
NH Journal is reporting more fear-mongering from the left, and from the usual suspects. Teri “Billion Dollar Deficit” Norelli (D- scaring women and children), is promising us that the Republican Budget will ‘put peoples lives at risk.
Political Incivility is Not the New Hampshire Way
“Political Incivility is Not the New Hampshire Way” is the title of Jeanne Shaheen’s Op-Ed in the Morning Sunday News. I can only assume she is not familiar with her own State Democrat Party leadership, some of the people who have helped her get elected like Kathy Sullivan, and others; people who are on the record saying any number of uncivil things.
Recovery From Irresponsible Democrat Budgets
To the Editor:
Every child knows which parent to approach for permission to do something risky, expensive, inappropriate, or too impractical. The parent who says “No” is called “mean”, “uncaring“, “selfish”, etc.
Some marriages have problems because over-spending threatens financial disaster, e.g., eviction, inability to purchase real needs like food and health insurance. Sometimes one spouse stands up to avoid the disaster, slashes expenses, sells expensive toys, cancels unessential services, etc. Family members enjoying the excess spending may call these cuts “extreme” and the responsible parent “mean”, “uncaring“, “selfish”, etc.
Across our country city, state, and federal governments have recklessly over-spent and over-committed future spending.
Democrats, Frat Boys, And Pimps, Oh My!
So the democrats were prepared to shut it all down to defend one big, international rent seeker. To pigeonhole women’s health issues to sex parts and intercourse. And to defend a major campaign contributor (the abortion industry) at all costs? Using women’s vagina’s for cash? Doesn’t that make them a bunch of pimps?
Ask Ray & Kathy…About Incest
Question: If consensual sex (without coercion) between any two adults is a protected right, (gay sex is defended on these grounds) does the state have a right to prohibit sex between adult relatives, regardless of how closely related?
NH Democrats New Talking Point: Subservience To The Crown
New Hampshire democrats are exposing their own hypocrisy again. Doesn’t take much, but this time it is over HCR 19 which reaffirms our states sovereign duty to nullify actions by the general government in defense of its residents.
Extremists? Sure, On The Left Aide Of The Aisle
NH Democrats and unions do not support New Hampshire workers rights. If they did they’d be defending the other 90% of the states workers from the inequality in pay and benefits afforded to public union employees. So this isn’t about workers rights, it is about protecting the big business of big Unions and democrat political campaign contributions, at the expense of 90% of New Hampshire’s workers. If anyone is being an extremist it’s the democrats and their union backed, taxpayer funded ponzi scheme.
Spoiled Brat Unions Don’t Want Parity – Again.
The measure states–if I understand it correctly–that if the union contract expires and has not been renewed, and no new contract is yet negotiated, those employees become at-will workers who can be treated (wait for it) like everyone else.
Roll Call-palooza – Another Democrat Taxpayer Swindle
New Hampshire Democrats, who benefit from taxpayer money laundered through public employee union dues into their campaign, are spending taxpayer dollars in the legislature to make sure they have sound bites and talking points to give to their union buddies to ensure the Aztec gold continues to flow moving forward.
