Shea-Porter’s Anti-Millitary Stand

Help myself...help myself...Blue Hampshire has a nice post about how Carol Seiu-Porter, the daughter of a WWII vet,  married to a former serviceman, stands up for veterans and the military. (I have synopsized.)

Well if that is true, then the minute she gets back to DC for her lame duck session I expect her to initiate an investigation into why states run by democrats have such a hard time getting absentee ballots out to military personnel in the field, and getting them back and counted in time to matter. This is a problem that has gone on for years without any notice or action by the democrats or their so-called military supporters.

I Got Me Some Love From The NHDP

I have to say I’m flattered that the New Hampshire Democrat party would actually write a press release about something I wrote.  I’m touched.  Too bad it has the usual heavy handed ignorance that comes pre-configured in the left wing narrative. The object, as usual, was to get Republicans to decline Granite Grok’s endorsements or declare me to be the hateful misogynist they wish I was.  They seem to think this matters or will have any effect on their impending doom.

If it makes you feel any better it wont.  But this does prove that you are all still a bunch of raging hypocrites, which I will continue to go out of my way to point out at every opportunity.

So how badly has the NHDP muffed this would be smear.  It’s pretty bad.

More Gay Lobby Lunch Money For Lynch

Lynch has only raised 1.12 Million for the general election with his own loans. Take the loans out and he only has 350,000.00 from sources other than his own checkbook. Thirty five percent of whats left is from one special interest; gay marriage activists from Tim Gill’s Political Out Giving, the group he secretly slithered off to, to give a luncheon speech back in May.

Is Carol Shea-Porter anti-millitary?

Carol Seiu-Porter’s energy policy agenda actually costs the US military billions of dollars more per year in increased fuel and energy costs. Stephen Hayward at the Weekly Standard estimated that every $10/barrel added to the price of oil costs the defense department (and you) one billion dollars more per year.

Public Service Is About Trust

I’d just assume have a root canal without pain killer as suffer through an editorial by Carol Shea-Porter, but sometimes you have to take one for the team. So I have immersed myself in the last rights editorial of the soon to be former congresswoman from New Hampshire’s first district, which is ironically titled, ‘Public Service is about trust.’

Trust?

Before I proceed let me offer up a comment on Carol’s notion of trust.  In traditional progressive fashion the meaning of trust has had to have been tortured before admitting under duress and threat of death to its friends and family members, that Carol’s application of it’s meaning holds any relevance at all to the historical application.  In fact Carol’s willingness to even use the word in this context, nay–any context at all–in reference to what she refers to as her public service, is a public disservice to the word, the language, the people of the first district, and serves to cement the likelihood that she is the disconnected, ruling class political shill we suspect her to be, if not also clinically insane.

Karl Rove…Takes It To The Hole

Karl Rove, I know what’s up with the basketball references, lays out the hypocrisy over hidden donors and special interests.  I’m not a huge fan of Rove but the guy knows what he’s talking about here. As for the "taking it to the Hole" references, it’s all about scoring points right?  These are important points. … Read more

Liberalism’s Intolerance…

Filed under Hypocrisy

For all of the vaunted "tolerance" demanded by the Left, if nothing else, the curtain has been yanked aside and the smoke has been drawn out of the room by NPR’s firing of Juan Williams for speaking what millions feel inside.  As a frequent flier for decades, after 9/11 you BET that I looked at every person coming onto the plane – unless you are a sheeple and will accept any multiculti stream of pap thrown at you, I can tell you that *I* was scanned by everyone else as well.  Why?

Families at home – "Let’s roll!".  When confronted by a threat, most Americans will weigh the odds and then respond. From those on the Left (or those that of the CAIR persuasion), I point out Jesse Jackson’s and Obama’s own words – it is human nature to evaluate threats.

But I digress – Political Correctness will be the death of this nation.  The organized march to control, not only speech, but actual thoughts, are the end game.  For simply expressing a personal fear, Juan was cashiered.  Further, there are those on the Left, are demanding another scalp – how tolerant!

(H/T: John)

The Right?  Well, there the head of NRP, Vivian Schiller, who said that Juan’s outburst should be between him and his psychiatrist – how Stalinist of her?  I’d make an exception there.

“Let’s Deface a Carol-Shea Porter Sign!” Contest

The Carol-Shea Porter campaign is not-surprisingly hypocritical. They use a video frame from a GraniteGrok YouTube video in one of their anti-Guinta commercials, and refuse to give credit – effectively stealing our material. Yet, when a citizen uses one of her signs, which he obtained legally, to protest her Progressive, destructive record in Congress, they call the police to make him take it down; pathetic. So in honor of the man, and in the style of “Draw Mohammed Day”, we are sponsoring a “Let’s Deface a Carol-Shea Porter Sign!” contest. Send us your entry to IAmAnExtremist@GraniteGrok.com

Hodes Nabbed For Push Poll

The big news this morning is that the democrats are eating crow.  Yes, after all the caterwauling about Republican complaints over a push-poll conducted for the Hodes campaign–which they were unwilling to admit they commissioned, or that it was even a push poll–has resulted in a fine of $20,000.00 against the firm that conducted the poll, and an admission by the Hodes campaign that they did pay the company to conduct the poll for which they were fined.

The Union leader reports that Mountain West Research has agreed to pay a $20,000.00 fine for violating New Hampshire state law by conducting a push-poll against Kelly Ayotte.

The ambassadors from Hodesistan have admitted to paying to have the poll done but still refuse to acknowledge that it was in fact, a push poll.  Sounds like bitter clinging to me.

It was a push poll.  So did you know it was a push poll?  Of course you did.

Carol’s Dirty Foreign Money

Carol Seiu-Porter gets her share of funding from unions with an international presence, but a new group has risen abruptly to the top of her donor list and it’s not a Union.  J Street PAC, a self proclaimed pro-Israel group, has produced donors to Carol to the tune of $16,500.00, and endorsed her as well.

J Street is self-proclaimed for several reasons.  They show their "support" for Israel by fighting sanctions against Iran and Hamas.  Their idea of peace is to lobby against Isreal’s right to self defense when attacked; as in, firing back prevents peace, just sit there and take it.  And J Street has been heavily funded by the anti-Israeli Soros family fortune, and other generous foreign donors including prominent Arab’s, their representatives, attaches, consultants, and hangers-on.

They do have US donors, but the democrats have made it clear that this no longer matters, nor does any existing regulation to separate foreign and domestic donations.

Using their rules Carol just took another $16,000.00 in "foreign contributions" for her "local election."  Contributions from people who it can be argued, don’t care all that much for our ally Israel.

Fiskal Konservative

…a diarist from the Daily KoS, expects you to believe that he is actually been undercover, hiding so far up under the left wing, that he would be permitted to keep and maintain a diary at the Daily KoS.

Hodes’ Foreign Money

But since the democrats are actually getting more foreign money than Republicans already, (here) would it matter if Paul Hodes had taken money from PAC’s with foreign donors directly into his campaign? He’d be spending it right here in New Hampshire to, how did he phrase it? affect local elections.

Sporting The Double Standard

Poor taste by associations is suitable grist for the mill so why not ask whether it is appropriate for a government union in a low budget, online political ad to place the pictures of prominent Republicans in an animated grandstand labeled ‘Teabagger’s section?"

That is what the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) has done.  (Aside from producing what may be the lowest budget ad I have ever seen.)  So would this classify as a crime under the Matthew Shepherd/Pentagon Funding Hate crimes legislation?  I mean, this should be insulting to the homosexual community, to have their civil right to ‘Tea-Bag’ ridiculed this way by associating it with evil, right wing, free market hatemongers. And since when is Mike Steele in the Tea Party? He’s not. So are they saying he is a homosexual? What are they trying to say?

And what about the association part?  The  AFGE donated $10,000.00 dollars to Paul Hodes and $3,000.00 to Carol Shea-Porter, and that just doesn’t seem right.  Isn’t Carol the one that actually used the word Teabagger in a sentence? Or did Paul Hodes say it alot when he blew off critical House Votes to hang out at NetRoots?  Either way, taking money from a Government union funded by taxpayer dollars, that spreads bigotry, hate and division…

THat says alot about you as a politician..unless you are a hypocrat.

I wonder if we could make a similar animated ad with Ray Buckley and Jim Splaine, and a few others in it, sitting in a grandstand, with a big banner over their heads proclaiming it the "Teabagger section?"

Carol could come out and call them teabaggers, and everyone would giggle…

Probably not?

That sounds like a double standard though doesn’t it?

 

This ridiculously bad ad is on the jump.

Muslim Brotherhood Declares War on US

Michael Totten at PJM points us to an article by Barry Rubin at Global Research in International Affairs in which Rubin alerts us that the newly elected leader of the Muslim Brotherhood has just endorsed a full blown Anti-American Jihad. Rubin explains the serious business that this is, with all the relevant consideration, but sums … Read more

Hodespocrisy –‘Chamber Of Commerce’ Edition

Uh....Paul Hodes gets an ‘A+’ for toeing the Pelosi/Obama Party line, and a least an ‘A’ for recycling the party talking points.  For example, Barack Obama has been wandering around claiming the Chamber of Commerce is using foreign money to affect local elections.  Paul Hodes has been wandering around New Hampshire saying the exact same thing.

Obama

“Just this week, we learned that one of the largest groups paying for these ads regularly takes in money from foreign corporations,” Mr. Obama said. “So groups that receive foreign money are spending huge sums to influence American elections.”

 

Hodes-From Roll Call

 “It could very well be that foreign money’s coming in to try to trample the voice of democracy,” Hodes said. “That’s a sad state of affairs.”

 

Hodes-again…

"… there are reports that the Chamber of Commerce is using money from foreign companies to influence New Hampshire elections."

I asked Hodes Lie-deflector Mark Bergman to show us the reports.  I guess Mark isn’t reading my blog, or he simply has no proof, but I know why he has no proof.

Hey Hodes Campaign- Choke On This!

Since it’s so darn important, just how much money from entities who have donors with foreign interests has poured into US political campaigns in 2010? Here’s an appetizer of a hint.  I bet neither Paul Hodes nor his media puppet Mark Bergman bothered to look before Mister "independent voice" just read it off the DNC … Read more

MilkingThe Union Cow

MooCarol Seiu-Porter gets 50% of her PAC money from Unions.  You remember the Unions?  Their leadership extorts taxpayer dollars away from the real workers to pay union employees then demands that they tithe  money to them for the privilege of doing it again.  Then they give some of it to Carol so she can help protect their interests.

That’s hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars filtered through union employees to a candidate they might not even support.

Carol also gets another 48% from congressional PAC’s, most of whom are heavily funded by unions.  These are congresspersons–some of them avowed socialists–who like Carol see no problem in giving the public sector employees more feed than those who work to feed them.

In exchange for that money Carol supports everything the unions want whether it is good for New Hampshire or not.  She loves their golden goose, card check, which would eliminate the secret ballot for organizing a union.  It allows unions to strong arm people into joining.  Unions do still do that.  Ask her AFL-CIO Buddy Richard Trumka. (and here).  And while I’m at it some of my own ruminations Here, Here, and Here. (and why not here as well).

Shea-Porter has amended 27 Seperate FEC filings.

If FEC disclosure amendments are really that big a deal, then why are we not discussing the fact that Carol Shea-Porter has had to amend her FEC filings 27 times. That’s one filing amended for ever 1.6 months in office. Is she that sloppy? Maybe she took advice from Nancy Pelosi instead of reading the filing rules herself –we know she’ not very good at reading things.

The Pot Calling The Kettle Black

This from the "Pot calling the kettle black" files: Ray Buckley is grinding his little Facebook propaganda mill again in an effort to get the liberal-regressive’s to put down the latte’s and lose the sad little faces from the implosion of Obama’s partisan, moonbeam,  Che Guevara cotillion and get their little rumps in gear to save his chairmanship.

This weeks episode: Citizens United destroyed campaign finance law because the democrats are (according to Buckley) being outspent 8 to 1.  The real problem is that others can now compete with unions and the lefts monster cash apparatus and Ray is just whining about the sudden appearance of real equality.

All one needs to do is sell their soul to a billionaire or industry that will spend millions destroying their opponent. That way the candidate will have only one master instead of those peksy constituents and $100 donors. But my point isn’t to state the obvious it is to slam the progressives unwilling to help.

And Ray would know all about that which is what makes this just so…damn…funny. So I’m clear on the hypocrisy part, (and by the way, when Republicans line up to object to liberal billionaire ATM’s that’s just nonsense) but I do have one question for Ray.  What is a "peksy" constituent?
