They concoct Rube … Read more

Memo to the NHGOP gubernatorial candidates: The NH-Communists Democrats running for Governor, with a few exceptions, stopped pushing “broad-based” taxes in 1996.

February 6, 2021 Ed Mosca

So I have read that Education Savings Accounts are going to lead to a “broad-based” tax because the cost may rise to $103 million. Sounds like a lot of money … until you look at the State budget.

If you spent only 5 minutes looking at the recent voting record of New Hampshire Democrats, you would be appalled. Presuming you are a sensible person with a healthy level of common sense.

December 22, 2024August 11, 2020 Steve MacDonald

February 13, 2020 Steve MacDonald

First off, let me remind Governor Sununu to use the word ‘beclown’ in his State of the State. Pet mission.

December 23, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Democrats Propose a NH Sales Tax – For the Children!

December 4, 2019

Governor Sununu was forced to veto a slew of bills in 2019 that would have increased or created taxes. In 2020, he’ll likely be made to do it again.

October 29, 2019October 29, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Updated: Richard Burr is, in fact, a Republican Senator from North Carolina, not a Democrat.
