Ambassadors To The Deficit

 

 The Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform (CFRR?) has been appointed by President Obama to deal with the deficit.  And in keeping with his commitment to partisanship it’s members are all pro-stimulus, big spending supporters of Dear Leader. 

Doing The Right Thing?

 

Majorie Smith cutting the budget reads like a prisoner forced to read a prepared statement just prior to their execution, that impugns their home country of ills for which they are about to be executed.

Then there is this.

"There are a lot of people who would not have believed the people in this room are supporting some of these cuts," [Smith] said. 

(Quoted from this mornings Union Leader.)

Unfortunately there were more cuts available but then there were not.  Democrats desperate to take whatever federal money Obama offered, to add to their three year spendapalooza--never in their wildest dreams thinking they'd actually have to cut back--got their buds nipped by Bud Fitch.

Poznanski, Leishman, Eaton, Et al

Terri Norelli isn't all that interested in ethics.  In the past few months several potentially high profile cases have gone softly into that good night with as little pomp as possible. 

The Tent Tax Party

What do you get when you mix 124 Donkeys and one RINO?  A list of NH House reps on the wrong side of a bill to repeal another stupid tax.

Linguists For Hodes

 

One of the joys of blogging is the anonymous commenters who drop the bottle of Booth's Dry Gin long enough to type something lucid. (Lucid is a stretch)   Most of these word-smiths are probably NHDP staffers who can't find anything better to do while they watch the party lose special election after special election on the road to being sent packing in November.

A.D.D.D.

 

There's this liberal talking point, it's spin actually, that anyone who does not disown Jim Bunning is an obstructionist.  It is founded on the premise that the Senator was against extending unemployment benefits.  The meme therefore goes; if you do not scold Jim Bunning you hate people who are unemployed and should burn in hell.

Hypocrats (again)

 

Being a liberal means never having to do better than whomever you can find that can be shown to be as bad or worse than whatever it is you are being accused of.  This, courtesy of Mike Brunelle, NHDP XO, as reported in this morning’s Union Leader, where Comrade Brunelle dismisses a request by the GOP to investigate Rep Dan Eaton (D-Spend first Tax later) as hypocrisy that knows no bounds. 

Taxaholics

 

 

It takes commitment to vote for a new tax, even one whose cover story was as unlikely to have any affect as HB 1679.  But there are those who like to tax and those who love it, and the supporters of the 'Soft Drink Tax' drew a line in the High Fructose Corn Syrup and stood their ground.

Low Hanging Fruit

 

Last week the New Hampshire House voted against a bill to let tax payers adopt charter provisions establishing limitations on the growth of budgets and taxes.  The actual short text reads as follows:

This bill authorizes cities and towns to adopt charter provisions establishing limitations on the growth of budgets and taxes.

What Does Hodes Know?

 

Remember last October when Paul Hodes tucked tail and ran to avoid an ethics vote that would implicate his democrat committee chariman (here)?  Well that Chairman, Edolphus Towns, has just been implicated in a missrepresentation of details that made Toyota look worse than was actually the case.

 

3 AM (Incompetence Revisited)

3 AM plus four days after getting the phone call the commenter in chief took a break from his vacation to tell us that the Terrorist we had already heard about was an isolated extremist.
