Prior to September 25th 2009 Nashua Rep Brian Poznanski (D-Budweiser) filed an LSR (2010-H-2523-R) that would have allowed underage drinkers to seek medical help without fear of prosecution for breaking the State laws on alcohol. So what exactly does "allowing underage drinkers to seek medical help without fear of prosecution" really mean? [...]

The democrats have made their "next move" in the fiscal water boarding of New Hampshire. LLC profits used as compensation will now be taxed like dividends. On the face of it we are asked to see it as a fair and equitable change to place all businesses on the same playing field [...]

As predicted, the impending Christmas season has tweaked the unemployment rate (down two ticks). I’d like to be optimistic, but I actually read the BLS reports. What we find is no good reason to believe things are turning around, and we won’t really have solid evidence until February when holiday [...]

Back in 1908 Charles Dawson and a few others, claimed to have found the missing link. A skull that would solve an anthropological problem. And for the better part of forty years, this "discovery" (in one way or another) drove our cultural and scientific understanding of the evolution of mankind.

Impeached perjurer and serial sex offender William Jefferson Clinton was in town yesterday. Democrats of every sexual orientation smiled, and applauded, and glowed, hanging on his every word. I think that says a lot about the Democrat party in New Hampshire.
Warming is still cooling, despite new evidence that hiding [...]
Someone shared this letter from Seacoast Online with me. Catherine Jones, a Portsmouth resident, beleives that a public option is the best solution for what ails our states health insurance problems. I guess she's never heard of Jeanne Shaheen or SB 711.

Richard Ashooh is pondering a run at Congressional district One. And at first glance he looks good on paper but there is some potential baggage. His association with One Vote08 back in 2007/2008 and the One Campaign that drove it, is a problematic smudge on an otherwise impressive resume.
Back in 2007 [...]
You run across the darndest things sometimes. Like this press release from the NHDP back in late September chiding Frank Guinta's campaign for accepting $2500.00 dollars from the CIGNA PAC. Seems Mayor Guinta wrote an op-ed not long after in which he (according to the thrust of the NHDP press release) promoted CIGNA's' [...]
The rumors are that Mr. Obama will trickle 30,000 troops into Afghanistan over the next year. We won't know for sure until tonight. It is also speculated that he is going to show our hand and explain our exit strategy. That's a bad idea. You don't tell your 'enemies' the [...]

Mo Baxley made a sound bite stab last week at connecting every Republican in the state and chastising anyone who didn't stand up to her expectations of them. I wonder if she feels the same way about liberal progressives?

The Democrat House leadership could learn a lesson from Colby-Sawyer College. According to the New Hampshire Sunday News.

Hot air reports that the NY-23 election was never certified. Hoffman actually won a county called earlier for Owens. At his point Hoffman is only 3000 votes behind Owens with 10,200 absentee ballots still to be counted. A majority of those ballots will come from military personnel.

Unfinished blog posts abound but I can give you a few hints at what's coming. Hooksett has issues. They have a police chief who is hard to get along with. He’s been at the center of a handful of controversies, and officers keep leaving. If that’s not bad enough home break-ins are [...]
Paul Hodes and Carol Shea-Porter we're cheering Saturday after the Pelosi-Care bill passed, but before they voted in favor of that abomination, they tossed seniors under the bus in exchange for future favors (and no doubt campaign contributions) from trial lawyers.
