  • Democrats and their juvenile sign tactics

    Number of comments: 5

    Over the past couple of days, I noticed something that I had hoped wouldn’t happen this year. I was wrong, it’s happening, and it seems to be happening earlier than in the past. It’s called “sandwiching”.

    For those who don’t know what I’m writing about, what happens is one candidate puts [...]

  • Crystal Clear Partisan Politics - at it's worst!

    Number of comments: 1

    Every day, households throughout this city are forced to make tough decisions about how we spend our hard earned dollars. We decide which cell phone plans we will choose, how often we will eat dinner out, whether to repair our existing vehicle or purchase a new one, and how [...]

  • NHAC: Why NH now needs CARC24 to stop an Income Tax

    Number of comments: 5

    [This was written by my colleague Mike Biundo - I couldn't have said it better.] 

    CACR24, a constitutional amendment prohibiting an income tax is coming up for a vote on Wednesday February 13th. Now I was thinking of going with the whole early Valentines gift for the taxpayers’ argument but have [...]

  • A Tax on Energy Companies is a Tax on Us All

    Number of comments: 3

    Like a mid-winter thaw, politicians with plans for boosting revenue by raising taxes on energy always seem to surface around now. During the dead of winter, when homeowners bemoan the escalating cost of heating oil, tax-hungry legislators always seem to haul out the anti-energy, pro-tax language.

    They will tell you [...]

  • Two Negatives Do Not Make a Positive

    In politics, I’m not even sure that one negative makes a positive. And I believe the average voter would agree with me.

    With less than 72 hours before those of us involved in the Manchester election process drag ourselves out from under our warm, cozy blankets to venture out for a [...]

  • Murphy’s Taproom - What might very well be the best bar in Manchester

    No, I’m not the Phantom Gourmet. No, I don’t have a financial interest in Murphy’s. I’m just a fan of the place...for a lot of reasons. Great, but you might be wondering - why I’d blog about it?

    Recently there has been a lot of attention on Murphy's [...]

  • Post Ames – Now it’s REALLY the NH Primary

    Number of comments: 5

    For Republicans in New Hampshire, today starts a new chapter in this cycle of the New Hampshire primary. This is, of course, because of yesterday’s Ames Straw Poll.

    As expected Mitt Romney took 1st. That really isn’t the story of the day – Romney really only would have been the [...]

  • Responsible Recreation

    Number of comments: 5

    It’s almost the weekend and I’m pondering what to do to entertain myself in the coming days.

    I’m not that big of a baseball fan, but I was thinking maybe I’d take in a Fisher Cats game.

    As a kid I followed baseball closely – although I’ll admit that I [...]

  • Controversy sells newspapers....

    Number of comments: 5

    We all know that controversy sells newspapers. Maybe that is why the Union Leader has decided that somehow it is the GOP’s fault that we’re one step closer to an income tax ion this state….because saying so goes against what would normally be the UL’s more conservative nature….and that [...]

  • I Pledge Allegiance to the Flag....

    Number of comments: 5

    I pledge allegiance to my Flag and the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

    That’s the original version of the Pledge of Allegiance from 1892. We’ve added words along the way, but the message is still the same. We all know the [...]

  • The more things change, the more they stay the same....

    Number of comments: 5

    Amid all of the Memorial Day festivities last weekend, a friend of mine brought me a newspaper because there was an article in it that he thought might be of interest to me. There on the front page of the June 2 edition was an article titled “House in Fight [...]
