Dominating the Political Bandwidth in New Hampshire
  • Mr Clean Makes a Sweep, Thankyou BarryO
    As the final caucus results roll in on this first Tuesday night in February, it is looking more and more like  Rick Santorum will sweep Missouri, Minnesota, and come close, if not first in Colorado. Santorum trounced poor Mittens by 30% in MO, 18% in MN, and was running neck and neck in CO, with [...]

  • America’s Democrat Mayors Ruining the Country for Decades
    “In a state where corruption abounds, laws must be very numerous.” —Tacitus Forbes.com’s  Kurt Badenhausen detailed America’s Most Miserable Cities, 2012 last week.  In formulating his thesis, Badenhausen writes,  We looked at the 200 largest metropolitan statistical areas and divisions in the U.S. to determine America’s Most Miserable Cities. The minimum population to be eligible was 256,000. [...]

  • Blue Hampshire: Title 1-When the Logic Train runs off the rails Title 2: Your right to “Choice” ends at my wallet (and your use of Govt to open that wallet).
    Remember: the Bigger the Government, the smaller the citizen.  And we are seeing this played now in the MSM as it is too explosive of a hack job by Obama to go unnoticed.  This is not a topic that is going to go away any time soon - given the nature of Obama and HHS [...]

  • Project Veritas just wants to let you know (on the day of the Minnesota Caucuses) – Voter ID for Tim Tebow and Tom Brady? Not needed in MN to register
    You want to register?  No ID needed.  Even if you use the names of star quarterbacks!   Lovely! “We are not the police“……  Who else is getting disenfranchised today?  After what happened here in NH, why hasn’t the MSM been digging into this with all of their armies of investigative reporters, fact checkers, editors, and political [...]

  • Sen. Ayotte thinks she’s helping. She’s not.
    The federal government is spending over a trillion dollars into debt every year—a trillion dollar deficit every year!—and Sen. Ayotte wants more federal money spent on a “job corps center” in Manchester…just without the unions getting their place at the trough. She misses the point: The “job corps center” shouldn’t be built at all. We [...]

  • If the economy is getting better…(Part 4)
    …then why is the percentage of Americans living in “extreme poverty” at an all-time high? Nothing says economic recovery like rising poverty.  Not just poverty but extreme poverty.  What, you hadn’t heard about that? Then maybe you hadn’t heard this either.  Joblessness begets dependence, begets poverty, begets slaves to the will of the government.  Big [...]

  • Why did M.I.A. Flip off my 11 Year Old Daughter?
    I know that media and entertainment people live in intersecting bubbles where hordes of grovelers kiss their backsides 24/7/365 for the chance to ride on the coat-tails other peoples fame.  I get that even the most grounded among them will begin to believe that everything they do and say is as great as all the [...]

  • If the economy is getting better…(Part 3)
    …then why has the number of Americans on food stamps increased by 3 million since this time last year and by more than 14 million since Barack Obama entered the White House? There’s something to put on your resume. “When I was President (pause) we created or saved (pause) a kajillion billion jobs (pause) but [...]

  • So, our two NH based US Senators had the chance to vote on getting rid of earmarks; how’d they do?
    Yeah, pretty much as expected: when voting on an amendment that would have banned earmarks (and hopefully, the corruption and self-serving pandering that often comes from it), we had a disparity in voting from our two US Senators.  As far as I am concerned, earmarks are nothing but giveaways to the politically connected.  Beseech a [...]

  • Pathetic journalistic lies from the Concord Monitor
    What a sad bunch of foolish, prejudiced people are running the Concord Monitor these days. They seem to bend over ever more readily to lick the shoes of their friends in the New Hampshire Democrat Party. Here’s the latest prevarication from the Monitor, which every day looks more and more like nothing more than a [...]
