New England Right To Work just made a HUGE mistake concerning Tim Lang (candidate for NH Senate, District 2)

Bonehead – didn’t do his homework. That would be McKayne Boedeker who is the Executive Director of the New England Right to Work (out of Manchester, NH). Got a missive from him and like a lot of organizations this time of year (er, election time), it came with a hand outstreched for your wallet. Sounded … Read more

A plug for Network for Educational Opportunity

Network for Educational Opportunity (aka NEO)

Why shouldn’t be all about Freedom in Education – moving the Power from the teachers unions, school boards, and the Edu-Industrial Complex to the Parents? Why does Education have to be location dependent – why can’t we make it truly child centered? Here is the mission from NEO’s viewpoint:

“Scholarships from the Network for Educational Opportunity are building a bridge, for each child, from a bad situation to a better situation, from a school where a child is struggling, to a school where they have a chance to succeed.

Does the school system need reform? Absolutely. But a promise to work hard on reforming the school system won’t do anything for that child who’s struggling today. A NH Bridge Scholarship can help a child right now.

Thanks to a law passed by the New Hampshire legislature, businesses can receive a substantial tax credit 85% against BPT and/or BET for contributing to NH Bridge Scholarships from the Network for Educational Opportunity and help a child now.”

Their Vision and philosophy:

So, Dems in Belknap county, that would mean that you will spend a lot, ignore the Constitution, and grow Govt? AGAIN?

‘Tis the season of political surveys coming in on the phone. Today, I think I got five, and a whole bunch of hangups which I take to be auto-dials by such companies looking for folks to call later or that with “predictive dialing”, there wasn’t an agent ready when “it” thought there would be when it dialed the number. It is also the time for “mailers”; candidates trying to sell their message like these four Democrat ~~Pro~~Regressives: Kate Miller, Bill Johnson, Sandy Mucci, and MY fav Lisa DiMartino (she of the “my house is in the flight path – there might be a crash” fame. More on that later).

They are running as a team. That’s fine – my pick are the four Conservatives (that happen to be running on the Republican ticket) Colette Worseman, Herb Vadney, Bob Greemore, and my personal friend Kevin Leandro.

Back to the Dems – remember, the electorate (that would be you, the voters) decided that the Democrats were the extremists in 2010 – and told them emphatically that their social issue voting and their absolutely crazy spending were no longer to be tolerated. So, what did these qwazy quad send as a message? That would be on the flip side of the card:

Have I got a political / gun invite for Kate Miller – an NRA event here in NH!

Previously I had chided Kate Miller, a Democrat from Meredith running for the NH House, for kvetching about Republicans and jobs all the while buying her campaign signs from a firm in Massachusetts. At the very end of the post, I linked a comment she made at this post at Politico that plainly told us how she felt about firearms (emphasis mine, reformatted for bloggishness):

He should reopen the debate on assault weapons and commit to leading the way toward their banishment from the hands of ordinary citizens. Here in New Hampshire, our Republican-controlled legislature has just allowed the public and elected officials alike to carry weapons in our state House, on the House floor and in the public gallery. At least one elected official carries a Glock, in fact a pink one, and many have asserted that our state House is now safer. One nine-year-old’s death is one too many. School districts across New Hampshire are considering shelving the state House visits by 4th graders that have been part of the curriculum for decades rather than risk the children getting caught in state House cross fire. President Obama can help us move forward, here in New Hampshire and across the country, by leading the way toward the banishment of these heinous weapons.

Right…”state House cross fire.” Fits in well with her running mate, Lisa DiMartino….but I digress. I got this in the email in-box:

On Friday, October 19, 2012, NRA National President David A. Keene will be at the Londonderry Fish & Game Club to greet fellow NRA Members and talk about the up and coming elections and NRA’s role in supporting candidates that are pro-second amendment.

I am also told there is a possibility that Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre may make an appearance, but there has been no hard commitment on that aspect of Mr. Keene’s visit.

Can’t put your $$ where yer mouth is, eh Kate Miller (DEMOCRAT candidate for NH House, Belknap 2)??

Ever since this uber-Progressive from Meredith, NH got the boot from the NH House two years ago, I have had to put up with her screeds in the local papers about how NH Republicans have abandoned NH Values, how everything that has been done the last two years, how they hate the poor, hate seniors, hate the disadvantaged, have cut the budget to where it hurts the disadvantaged, they hate education, and….well, you get the idea. TEA Party, Free Staters….extremists all and none of them care about anyone else but themselves (those selfish bastards!). Words that have warmed the cockles of NHDP Chair Buckles, I would presume.

Frankly, she’s come across as an angry, sore loser that hates the limitations of the NH Constitution as well as the US Constitution. Your money is her money, and her interests in redistributing your formerly private property (the result of your labor) trumps your needs to provide for your family. She’s all about pushing that 47% to nose bleed levels. It has been a constant litany from this Progressive harpie on jobs – you know, the kind that the Dems weren’t interested: YOU Republicans promised us jobs! What are you doing that social stuff – that’s not JOB related!! Why are you cutting that tax – that’s not JOB related!! Where’s the jobs, jobs, jobs!

Never mind that the Dems didn’t campaign on social issues, but they sure legislated on ’em. Jobs became an afterthought. But one would think that with so much emphasis on her delusional daydream that Dems would do FAR better on creating jobs, she’d, you know, actually put her words to effect and helping a NH company with a NH job?

Oh Wait – what’s in that lower right hand corner of her sign?

Kate Miller needs a dictionary read to her to realize that “do nothing” is not a “further intrusion” (HB1659)

Both Steve and I had posts on HB1658, so when a local Democrat, Kate Miller (rather frustrated from having been tossed from the NH House in 2010 and has been writing very shrewish Letters to the Editor ever since) decided to decry even more “intrusion” into womens’ lives, I could not help myself:

“Laughter does the soul good”, or so the old adage goes. In that case, my soul is well indeed, especially after reading the latest dismalocumentary from Kate Miller (who seemingly is still smarting after being thrown out of the NH House for being a Democrat extremist by voters in 2010). Her personal jeremiad in attempting to paint the Republicans to where she’s already been cast borders on hysterical these last few months! One would think that she works in a plastics factory (the way she keeps grasping at straws)!
