John Lynch Gets What's Been Coming

Blogging can be a weird hobby.  You never know when something you've planted will grow and bear fruit.  But back on May 28th of 2010 I planted this seed. It was about Mr. Lynch going to the Political OutGiving conference.

Get it Off Me Man!

I think I'll Name it PaulThere is ample evidence that Paul Hodes toes the line, is a Kool Aid drinker, and a reliable party hack.  Each effort to sell himself as having fiscal integrity or ethics is met with an abundance of contradictory evidence.   So to suggest that he is an independent thinker lacks veracity unless you mean independent from reality.  To further demonstrate this break Hodes spokesman Bergman (not Ingrid but Mark) defended his paymaster from a recent attack on his record.

Look For The Union Label

Look For The Union LabelUnions are historically more corrupt than the business community.  Yet when a corporation donates money in a manner some left wing fringe group finds unacceptable, we are treated to flash mobs and media hype.

Hodespocrisy-The Tale Of Dirty Dick

Dick Durbin, or Dirty Dick as we like to call him around the shop, is a prominent Senator from Illinois and another $10,000.00 donor to Paul Hodes.  Durbin has all the standard conflicts with the "New and Improved Hodes--With extra Hypocritical Action!, and coming in at 685 million in earmark requests since fiscal year 2008 (117 million in 2010), dirty Dick should fit nicely into Paul's stated mission to end earmark abuse in congress.

Under Norelli's Rule

Guh!?Yesterday Terie Norelli celebrated my Birthday by taking to the pages of the Keene Sentinel to talk about what a great job the New Hampshire democrat party has been doing with the state.  One of the things she’d like you to believe is that they have created (or saved?) a job friendly environment that has allowed the Granite State to recover more quickly than other states.  But is that really true, an

Character Bass-assination?

 

Bass Master CharlieSo how does this work for Charlie Bass? Back in 2005 C-Bass lead the school in an effort to get Tom DeLay to step down as Majority leader because of possible connections to Lobbyist Jack Abramoff. That's not exactly a way to instill confidence or support in the guy.  Well the DoJ just announced that DeLay is innocent of any wrong doing.

John And Terry Try To Try To Suppress Free Speech?

Granite Grok- Supporting racist vandals?Someone sent me a picture of a campaign sign with a sombrero on it.  It was a Mahoney for Congress sign.  It was, well...kind of funny, given that Mr.

Homo Depot

Celebrating DiversityHomo is considered a derogatory term in the gay community (though I beleive Gay Anthropoligists get a pass) so I called up an old friend of mine and asked him for permission to use it.  He's not an anthropologist if it matters.  He asked why and I told him.  I said, “Home depot promoted the gay lifestyle in a parade of some sort, but at about the same time wouldn’t let a guy who works in one of their stores wear a pin on his apron that said “One Nation under God.&rdq

It's All About What They Want

Image Credit: Tree HuggerErik Erickson offers up an interesting article on pursuing a constitutional convention, (here) but what caught my attention was the Rasmussen figuers on the differences in perception between the Hodesheaporters of the world and the rest of us.

 

Consider the Rasmussen surveys of late:

Hodespocrisy--The Menendez Chronicles

Being as concerned as they are about ethics and corruption (over at the offices of the New Hampshire Democrat Party) you’d think Paul 'Jersey' Hodes would have refused that $10,000.00 campaign contribution from Senator Robert Menendez (D-NJ).  Menendez is a long time benefactor of corrupt SEC violator Goldman Sachs (see below) and being from Jersey's most corrupt Hudson county Menendez has been linked to any number of ethical "misunderstandings" throu

You Want Us To Take This Seriously?

Yeah?  When pigs fly!Cynicism is the proper lens through which all political activity should be viewed--particularly by incumbents---so pardon my skepticism but this latest legislative effort by Paul Hodes strikes me as a bit hollow.

CONCORD — Members of Congress and federal regulators would be barred from working as lobbyists for a minimum of two years under a bill that U.S. Rep. Paul Hodes said yesterday he is sponsoring.

Where Do We Draw The Line?

No, It's not marraige.All you folks (regardless of your sexual disorientation) who’ve gone and gotten yourselves hitched by a JP or someone else who performs a legitimate civil union just got hosed by one federal judge in Northern California.  According to him, you’re not married.  That’s right, civil unions are not marriages. (That is to say, they are not contractually equivalent.)

Hodespocrisy--The Max Baucus Edition

Money money money money...Max Baucus, Democrat Senator from Montana, is the chairman of the Senate Finance committee and his Glacier PAC has donated $10,000.00 dollars to Paul Hodes for Senate.  Baucus may be best known for his influence on Health Care reform or Climate change legislation.  But what he should be known for is his relationship with lawyer/staffer Melo
