Paul Hodes

A Problem For Oily Populists

Hope you got your permit to do that?Paul Hodes is scalp hunting BP over the Gulf Oil spill—even though BP ponied up 20 Billion already and has spent plenty trying to fix things besides.  Fine and dandy “but how do I use that for populist traction” cries Sugar Daddy Hodes.  “I need votes.”  His answer is another press release promising something or other—it doesn’t really matter with Hodes.  Anyway, what he should be doing, if in

Does 'Hodes' Mean Stupid In Some Other Language?

Duh.

 

Paul Hodes is singing to his choir again. This time he’s over at HuffPo wielding the party rhetoric like a drunk man with a fireplace poker.  It's nice to see him so comfortable in his own ignorance.  You really get the feeling he believes it.

Hodes Found Someone...

...he thinks he might be able to b'My chances of winning are actually smaller than this.'eat in the New Hampshire Senate race.  Lord knows he can't beat anyone actually running.  She polls better than he does, but she's not from New Hampshire, so that improves his odds a little bit.   That's right, Paul Hodes is now apparently running for the Senate....against Sarah Palin.

Hodes Anoints

Back in April Paul Hodes took the original tack of reminding us that Kelly Ayotte was 'picked' by the GOP establishment.  It's a common theme played up by the left so Hodes was just being a good democrat an repeating what he'd been told.

I don’t know what Ms. Ayotte, who was essentially picked by the Washington Republican establishment, thought she was going to get into when she got into the race. But it’s an active primary. New Hampshire has often confounded expectations,” he said. (emphasis mine.)

Hodes + BP + Lobbyist + Rhetoric

Hey That's My Subsidy

No one doubts that BP has a responsibility to clean up after themselves but Paul Hodes has taken the opportunity to play word games and politics. Yesterday he announced that because of BP's complicity in the release of the Lockerbie Bomber they are no longer entitled to the tax cuts the government gives them out of the goodness of its frozen black little heart. Hodes calls them 'Tax subsidies. '

Shabazz!

Good Ol' Two Face

June 24th 2010  Today, Paul Hodes fought to end the influence that corporate and foreign special interests have in American elections by supporting the DISCLOSE Act.

The House Passed It, Now Look At What's In It?

I hope Rath Young Pignatelli, Shaheen and Gordon, and all the other leftward Lawyerly types are prepared for a shot of mandatory diversity.  Those democrat congressmen from New Hampshire they like to donate to—so the government can make more law for lawyers to lawyer over—just passed more than a financial regulations bill when they voted for the Dodd-Frank financial regulation bill.  They passed mandatory race and gender diversity requirements for everyone who touches anything near the financial industry.

 

Hidey-Hodes

The Hodes campaign has made its priorities clear.  I’m referring to the attack ads on Republican primary candidate Kelly Ayotte, whom they have for whatever reason anointed as the primary winner.

What does this tell us about Paul Hodes?  Nothing we did not already know.

He intends to distort the facts in pursuit of political power.  He will lie either by omission or just outright.  He is unwilling to listen or wait for the will of the public.  He is sticking to the party talking points.  His campaign is so desperate that it has to go negative before he even has an opponent.  He needs an ignorant uninformed electorate to win.

Democrats Deem 2011 Budget Passed

According to Human Events late last night the Democrat majority Congress attached a document which 'Deemed as passed' a 1.12 trillion dollar budget.  The document was attached to the War supplemental bill and approved on partisan lines (despite bi-partisan objection) 215-210.

It will come as no surprise to New Hampshire residents that both Paul Hodes and Carol Shea-Porter voted to approve HR1500 and the 1.12 trillion dollar slush fund with which they apparently intend to continue the operation of the federal government.

The End Of The Road

 

Hat in hand, governor Lynch is looking for the feds to bail him out of the accumulated disaster of his administration. On the matter of extending federal unemployment benefits (from this morning’s Union Leader) the governor was emphatic.

Failure to do so (to extend federal benefits) will jeopardize the economic progress we've been making, Lynch said, warning that roughly 20,000 people in the state could run out of benefits in the next four months. Next week alone, 938 people will lose their benefits, he said.

Progress?

Sugar Daddy

Paul Hodes has a dirty little secret.  His ‘commitment’ to green energy has strings attached that lead directly to the sugar industry and a significant campaign cash “Thank You.” 

Back in 2007 and 2008 Congress waged an epic battle over the Farm Bill.  They didn’t call it the farm bill they called it the Food Nutrition and Bio-Energy Act.  What it was (or became) was a 288 billion dollar sop to the agriculture industry with a focus on approving billions into ethanol subsidies for the farm belt before the 2008 elections. 

Chicago On The Merrimack

 

The democrat party line on BP is to close ranks and paint Republicans as protecting big oil.  This is necessary to distract America from Obama’s incompetence and the democrat’s cozy relationship with the British energy company.  Both Carol Shea-Porter and Paul Hodes got the memo—they are on board—using tragedy for personal and political profit as each has sent out fundraising propaganda asking supporters to help them fend of the GOP and its defense of big oil.  These people are unbelievable. 

In a recent Hodes fundraising email staffer Valerie Martin claims that... 

"Republicans… are standing up for Big Oil, Big Insurance, and Big Banks. 

Elect Equality

 

Ray’s out trolling for more out of state money, which is fine because that’s his job, but since he’s such a hypocrite about it I’m not inclined to stop busting on him for it.  This time its for Carol and Paul, and the portal of choice is called Elect Equality, which describes itself as a program for LGBT Americans who want to influence the 2010 elections to elect and protect the candidates we need in office.” They want interested persons to go vote for any of 30 pro lgbt candidates the most popular of which they will donate to.
