Sister Mary LaHood – No Talking in Cars

by Steve MacDonald

(Originally posted Oct 11th, 2010 – Seem relevant to re-post this given that NH HB 1117 went to executive session yesterday.) Bloomberg reports that Transportation nanny Ray ‘Sister Mary’ LaHood believes that all cell phone use in motor-vehicles, including hands free, are distracting.  Well, no kidding Mr. Einstein.   Prior to the invention of the cell … Read more

Al Gore, Man-Bear-Pig And Global Warming

by Rick Olson

“America, how can I write a holy litany in your silly mood?” ~Allen Ginsberg “They pay pseudo-scientists to pretend to be scientists to put out the message: ‘This climate thing, it’s nonsense. Man-made CO2 doesn’t trap heat. It may be volcanoes.’ Bullshit! ‘It may be sun spots.’ Bullshit! ‘It’s not getting warmer.’ Bullshit!” “When you … Read more

If “Reproductive Rights” means…

If by “reproductive rights” the left means that a woman has the right to destroy a person just because it is still in her womb…

Sullivan’s New Hampshire

by Steve MacDonald

Sullivan's NH -Burning down the houseThe ‘Su’ in Suckly, Kathy Lawsuit’ Sullivan, has a regular editorial in the Union Leader.  I have no idea why but after reading it and taking a shower to get the brimstone smell off of me, I have to make an arbitrary decision as to whether I should comment.  Normally I do not.  Her template is the recipe for left wing baby formula and so unoriginal I could probably find it in every other paper in the country with the word New Hampshire replaced with (insert name of your state here.)  But this time she closed her ditty with the words…"They are about to destroy the New Hampshire we love."

This is red meat-bait for right wing carnivores.  It begs the obvious question, ‘"what New Hampshire do they love," they being Sullivan and the far left democrats, and history has been kind enough to provide us with an answer.

How Do You Say “Klaatu barada nikto” In Chinese?

by Steve MacDonald

One source inside the Shea-Porter camp who asked to remain anonymous because they were not authorized to speak publicly on the matter, admitted that the congresswoman was trying to learn to the phrase “Klaatu barada nikto” in Chinese. She claimed that if she spoke these words before the 2012 campaign that donations from the Chinese controlled conglomerates, to Caribbean front-companies, who would then move money into New Hampshire via a courier named “Falcon” traveling in a saucer shaped balloon, would stop and she would be able to win re-election.

Why I Need Your Tax Dollars, by Gary Hirshberg

by Steve MacDonald

Gary Hirshberg CE-Yo of Stonyfield Farms wants you to know what he thinks about a recent taxpayer investment in organic farming. His editorial in this mornings Union Leader goes on at great length extolling the virtues and benefits of organic farming. It will create jobs, better food, help grow the organic farms footprint and provide fresh local dairy products.
He never mentions that his fresh local dairy farm is owned by a huge multinational French conglomerate of which he is a prominent international player. (Big Dairy!)

A Letter From Crazy Aunt Nancy

by Steve MacDonald

I just received this in my email. [my comments bracketed and bold]

Palin Bashing

by Steve MacDonald

I stumbled across an open letter by (former?)’Young Democrat’ Douglas Lindner, a primary candidate for Manchester Ward 1 back in 2008.  Lindner narrowly lost the primary (his words).  Narrowly is 268 to 330,350 and 406 for three seats in Manchester Ward 1; I’m thinking he might not have been liberal enough.

But I believe he’s found a fix for that.

In his letter he first congratulates the Republicans on their victory (a very gracious set up), commends the Republicans for selecting the moderate train wreck John McCain in the past two presidential primaries, (even though it was the moderate/independents that swung those victories) and then proceeds to embark on a Palin bashing screed. 

I told you he was trying to up his cred.

A Word From The Chairman Of New Hampshire’s Super Minority Party

by Steve MacDonald

Over on Facebook last week the Chairman of the New Hampshire Democrat party wished we had this law on the books.

British Election Overturned Because of "False Statements"

The Independent reports that former British immigration minister Phil Woolas "lost his seat as an MP today after an election court ruled that he knowingly made false statements about an opponent in May’s general election."

Bloomberg notes Woolas was guilty of "an illegal practice" by making statements "he had no reasonable grounds for believing were true and did not believe were true."

"It is the first time in 99 years that an election has been overturned as a result of a candidate making false statements. Woolas told reporters he is applying for a judicial review of the decision."

Why?  Mr. Buckley claims that if we had this law…

"Hardly a Republican would hold office in New Hampshire if we had this law here…"

Komrad Karol SEIU-Porter-Constitutional Threat

by Steve MacDonald

Carol SEIU-Porter seems to think we need government.  That the Tea Party and others do not want any government.  That there is no role for government.  And while there is a minority of people within the various facets of the movement who might agree, most of us do not because anarchy leads to oligarchy and totalitarianism.  That’s just how people are wired.

So what’s Carol’s real problem?  She has several but lets focus on the fact that based on the context of yesterdays’ CD-1 debate she has more or less admitted to being one of Jonah Goldberg’s aptly defined ‘smiley-faced’ fascists.

What’s With The intimidation Tactics?

by Steve MacDonald

"urmnt urmnt, urmnmurmt murmnemen".Bill Wynne, a volunteer(?) for the Giuda campaign, made an interesting statement on the NHRVC Facebook page the other day. He’s talking about his favorite candidate knowing full well the NHRVC long ago endorsed Jennifer Horn.

"Hey Kevin, did you see Bob’s 4 30 sec spots I did for the campaign? I posted it to the Grok and they removed it because they do not believe in "freed of speech and expression". I have several vids ready to release about that group, but waiting for the general. They are not registered with the SOS and making endorsements. Not a good position to take. It’s too bad they are so biased. I saw that woman’s video Jennifer something on the 2nd amendment. I wouldn’t have published something of such poor quality not only in sound but video and fuzzy graphics. A real turn off for the viewer and tells what the inside of the campaign may look like putting something like that"

Emphasis mine

This is interesting for reasons you can’t even begin to imagine but first a bit of clarity.  The Grok started a Facebook page not long ago and Bill was one of our first “friends.”  He immediately challenged our judgment in choosing to endorse Horn (which is fine) but then proceeded to pee Giuda propaganda all over our Facebook page like a Bull Dog marking territory.  He essentially took it over for Bob.

Now I like Bob, and Bill, but let’s have some perspective here.  You don’t pirate someone’s fan page for your own purposes like a gay activist takes over Target.  It’s just not good form.  And Bill was still commenting on the page until yesterday after we confronted him about this comment.  He seems to have since taken his toys and gone home.

But we still need to explore this for reasons that I hope will become apparent.

To begin–in no particular order– Bill’s claim that we are biased is accurate only in that we are as much so as he is, accepting the caveat that we didn’t digitally flash mob someone else’s Facebook page to express our opinion—we use or create one of our own.

While that’s not much of an indictment, what follows might be.

It’s Train Wreck Week!

by Steve MacDonald

I'm supposed to read what first?

It’s Carol Shea-Porter week over at Boo-Hoo Hampshire. That means quality opinion about the antics of the 1st district congresspersonista from New Hampshire are the order of the day, every day, until next Monday. So the guys at Granite Grok are more than happy to embrace Carol’s stated commitment to bi-partisan support, an angle you are not going to find at Blue Hamster, by providing alternative commentary about her for the duration, in honor of her having voted with her party leadership 98% of the time.

By the way. Do you know why Carol only votes with her party 98% of the time? She’s missed 2% of the votes.

But to be fair, and we know Carol is all about fair, we’ll leave it up to Blue Dumpster to produce Carol’s bi-partisan record in congress.  That’s when she does not vote with the leadership PAC money that keeps coming her way for being such a good little do-bee.  (Remember what Frau Pelosi says..don’t be a "Dont Bee," be a "Do Bee.") So good luck to them.  I don’t think they can pull it off.  Carol is easily one of the most reliable votes for the expansion of the Nancy-State.

I’d also like to see them merge her voting record with the "Independent voice for New Hampshire" rhetoric, an equally challenging effort given the facts. Of course Dean is not looking for facts he’s looking for sympathy. He’s mounting this "give Carol a big ol’ hug" campaign to energize whatever is left of the base or it’s support for Carol Shea-Porter since the independent voice of the independent’s has jumped ship leaving him with his voice, the left wing church choir, and a handful of RINO’s lurking over at Red Hampshire.  So how much you want to bet we get more traffic on ‘CSP Week’ than he does?
