Elizabeth Warren has little respect for Massachusetts Voters

By Kimberly Morin


Elizabeth Warren (Democrat) is running for the Senate seat in Massachusetts currently held by Scott Brown (Republican).  As her candidacy has unfolded, so has her past of fraudulence and continual lies.  Those things apparently aren’t bad enough.  Warren now wants to continue lying only it’s about Scott Brown and Republicans.  Rather than discuss the issues, she has chosen to outright lie about what legislation represents and not tell the truth about other policies.  Elizabeth Warren is originally from Oklahoma, maybe that’s why she has no respect for Massachusetts voters.

Below is a list of her recent lies and the actual truth, because the people in Massachusetts (and the entire country) deserve better:

Warren:  “Scott Brown voted against equal pay for women.”

The Equal Pay Act was voted on and passed in 1964 – long before Scott Brown was working in the Senate.  As a matter of fact, he was just a kid when that Act was passed (NOTE: only Democrats voted against it).  What Warren must be referring to is the Paycheck Fairness Act which is about lawsuits and forcing businesses to allow all employees to openly discuss what they are paid.  In fact, the Paycheck Fairness Act would actually hurt women  if it had passed.   Historical facts seem to be above Warren’s pay grade (earning millions does not make a person smarter).

Warren:  “Scott Brown voted to protect tax breaks for oil companies.”

There are no special tax breaks for oil companies.  “They are the standard relief afforded manufacturers, mining companies and other businesses to help recognize the costs of operations”  Increasing taxes on any company during a recession when unemployment has remained over an 8% high (thanks to Warren’s own political party) for 3 years would be voting for killing more jobs.    Apparently Warren doesn’t understand how business, the economy or the tax code works.  Scott Brown did the right thing for his constituents and the country by not voting to kill more jobs.

Warren:  “Scott Brown voted against three jobs bills.”

The ‘jobs bills’ Warren is referring to weren’t job creation bills but more spending bills.  After the debacle of the Stimulus that spent almost a trillion taxpayer dollars, Warren should know better than to think voters are willing to waste even more money.  The average cost per job ‘created or saved’ from the Stimulus bill was $300,000.  The private sector needs to create jobs and the House, with bi-partisan votes, has passed over 25 bills    that would not cost the taxpayers any money but would help create jobs in the private sector.  It is Democrat Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid that has refused to bring the bills to the Senate floor.  Maybe Warren should start hammering Reid over this.

Warren:  “The Republican agenda is to limit women’s access to health care services.”

Warren is referring to the fight over forcing religious institutions to provide contraception to employees even though it is against their religious beliefs.  Funny thing, ‘Liberal Lion’ Teddy Kennedy agrees with Scott Brown and many others, including Democrats and the Constitution that the government not be allowed to force this upon these institutions.  No one is limiting access to health care services.  Women are free to go into their local pharmacy and purchase birth control at very cheap prices.  Apparently Warren believes women are too helpless to be personally responsible for their own actions.

Debbie Wasserman-Schultz is a Breastfeeding Mommy Hater

By Kimberly Morin

Apparently Debbie Wasserman-Schultz isn’t a big fan of small children or breastfeeding Mommies.

According to the Washington Post:

A number of local chapters of the National Organization for Women are denouncing  the DNC convention rules, saying that they unfairly exclude mothers with young  children. …

The group of southern California chapters of NOW are  pointing to the lack of childcare at the conventions, as well as the difficulty  female delegates have in bringing children to the convention floor. According to  the activists, the DNC is requiring young children to have credentials to come  onto the convention floor with their parents.

“Moms with young children 6  years of age and under who cannot be left at home, some of whom are  breastfeeding, are relegated to second-class status within the Democratic  Convention, unable to participate as a delegate due to antiquated policies and  inadequate accommodations that were apparently in place before Women’s  suffrage,” Susie Shannon, a delegate to the 2012 DNC Convention.

Exactly what type of credentials does Debbie expect children to have?  Is she going to demand ID like the Massachusetts Democrats did at their convention?

Joe Kennedy III will raise your taxes and thinks you’ll like it

By Kimberly Morin


Joe Kennedy III, of the Massachusetts Kennedy clan, is running for State Representative in Massachusetts District 4 (which includes towns like Fall River, Brookline and Mildford). In an interview on August 20th with WickedLocal, Kennedy told the editorial staff that he is:

 …open to new taxes, but said Congress needs to use a balanced approach that includes spending cuts and targets new revenue. The candidate said that he thinks people will be willing to spend more on taxes if there is a clear, certain plan to get the economy on track. [emphasis added]

The trust fund baby who has never had to worry about money a minute in his life believes that voters in his district, who are having a hard time putting food on the table, will be okay with higher taxes? He actually believes that people want to shell out more cash for a government that is already over bloated and extremely wasteful. Kennedy proves that he is completely out-of-touch with the realities of working and middle class people.

It’s almost egregious that he would mention raising taxes on people with a steady unemployment rate of 8.3% thanks to Democrat policies; foreclosures still happening and people with mortgages under water; food prices and gas prices continuing to rise and finally the fact that Massachusetts residents already pay a lot in taxes! Not to mention that he’d be raising taxes on the entire country, not just a district that would be insane enough to actually vote for him.

A disturbing trend with Democrats in New Hampshire

By Kimberly Morin

With the upcoming primaries only weeks away and the general election only a few months away, campaigns are in high gear all across New Hampshire. Both Democrats and Republicans are attending fairs and meeting constituents; talking to people about issues and explaining their platforms.  Most people are positive and excited to talk about their candidacy and why they are the right person for the State Legislature but there is a disturbing and very negative trend among Democrats that is the antithesis of what New Hampshire residents represent – negativity and lies about their opposition.   It seems that Obama’s and the national Democrats’ negative, smearing campaign style has ‘trickled down’ into the state and local level.

At the Kingston Days event this weekend both Democrats and Republicans had tents to provide information to voters.  The Rockingham Republican Committee had information available for candidates in Rockingham County as well as the gubernatorial candidates, Kevin Smith and Ovide Lamontagne.  They also had Romney signs and information.  The Kingston Democrats (no website found) had some information regarding candidates but they also had printed up lies about State Senator Russell Prescott’s votes in the legislature.  The information about the Democrat running against him, Carol Croteau, was simply a piece of paper asking for a donation with a website listed and nothing else.

The Democrats also had signs on their tent like ‘Don’t Touch My Medicare’, which is amusing since Obama cut $500 billion from Medicare in Obamacare.  They of course had the union solidarity sign (because public sector unions are all about bigger government and higher taxes, just like Democrats) and even an ‘I Stand with Planned Parenthood’ sign because Democrats love wasting taxpayer dollars on organizations that don’t need it.  The worst part is that they were lying about a State Senator rather than telling the truth or promoting their own candidate.  And he probably wasn’t the only one.

Misogynist Bill Clinton to endorse Maggie Hassan

By Kimberly Morin

Democrats and hypocrisy are nothing new but Maggie Hassan takes it to a new low with her announcement that Bill Clinton will be supporting her run for New Hampshire Governor on the Democrat ticket . There’s no doubt that Bill Clinton is a misogynist. His abuse of women with his power as a politician was clear throughout his career, including as President of the United States. No interns were safe from the predator-in-chief (note: Monica Lewinsky was just one of many according to the book ‘The Whistleblower’ by Marinka Peschmann). How is it that women who are Democrats can continually hold this man up as some type of ‘women’s rights’ hero after all that he has done to prove otherwise. A woman who claims to fight for women’s rights has one of the biggest misogynists in political history backing her and she believes that’s a good thing?

It’s not that Bill Clinton only had one case of ‘inappropriate behavior’, there were several. It’s not that ‘Slick Willy’ lied about his sexual affair with intern Monica Lewinsky; it’s that he abused his power. Apparently liberal women can ignore the fact that the man (using that term loosely) held the highest position in the United States and was married. What they cannot ignore is his continuous misogynistic behavior throughout his career and the abhorrent way in which he and his political machine sought to destroy any woman who tried to tell the truth about it. How any woman can support such a man in general is questionable but the fact that they seek his support at all shows how little they really care about women’s rights.

The hypocrisy of NH State Rep Chris Serlin

By Kimberly Morin

Recently there was a big brouhaha over Speaker O’Brien not allowing a couple of Concord Monitor reporters into a press conference due to the Monitor’s printing of a cartoon depicting O’Brien as a Nazi.  The event was an “invite only” one in which only those with invitations were welcome to the proceedings.  Democrats ripped O’Brien for “punishing” the reporters.  Apparently some representatives were conversing back and forth via email that they should rally around O’Brien’s decision.  Then an interesting thing happened, as reported in the miscellanyblue blog – Democrat Representative Chris Serlin added his two cents, chiding the representatives (you can see his full email here):

It’s incredible to watch this train wreck unfold. So many of you calling for the wagons to be circled around the Speaker for the Press has DARED to paint him in an unfavorable light in a cartoon. The HORROR!

If the Press “behaves” then they are afforded access. Oh how rich! As if the people and the Press work for us – or are our peers. What is this — a Banana Republic, where the politicians tell the press what they should and should not do?

We work for the people of New Hampshire, which includes the Press. There is nothing that the press or the citizens of NH owe us. We owe THEM. We owe it to them all to be just a wee bit less sensitive to any who may insult us. A cartoon — from May — really? How ridiculous.

Why is this interesting and completely hypocritical on Representative Serlin’s part?  For two reasons:  #1 – back April during the public lynching of George Zimmerman, Rep Serlin tried and convicted Zimmerman on Twitter.  Not very adult behavior and not very professional behavior for a New Hampshire Representative.  #2 – After this author published the article alerting the public to Serlin’s outrageous behavior; she was blocked by him on Twitter.  Yes the very same Representative who is chiding his colleagues in the above email also blocked a member of the Press and a citizen of NH over his own egregious behavior.

Obama’s Economic “war on women” continues

By Kimberly Morin

 

According to the latest Bureau of Labor Statistic numbers published today, there are now 780,000 women collecting unemployment.  That number continues to rise with no end in sight.  Obama’s economic policies continue to fail and are continuing to hurt women.  There are more women out of the workforce than there were when Obama took office and that number keeps growing as well.  Unemployment for women is at 8% (in Bush’s last month in office it was only at 6.5%).  It’s clear that Obama’s economic “war on women” continues.

The participation percentage rate of women over 16 years old in the workforce is at one of its all-time lows.  The other all-time low since before 2002 was also during Obama’s reign.  It’s currently at 57.8%; the low under Obama was 57.6%.  This means that only 57.8% of women are participating in the workforce out of the 100% that could.  A number even more startling is the fact that almost 4 million women are out of the workforce since Obama took office.  These are women who could be working but are not and are not collecting unemployment.

New Hampshire passes voter ID despite the usual whining from Democrats

By Kimberly Morin

Today the Senate and House compromised on their bills and finally passed a voter ID bill that will be in effect for the November 2012 elections.  It’s long overdue that this bill was passed but at least it finally has gotten done and with a veto-proof majority.  Governor Lynch (D) was able to veto the last voter ID that was passed with a simple majority.  Many states are passing voter ID. laws because the majority of voters want these laws in place.  Fully 75%   of voters or more want voter ID. – Democrats, Republicans and Independents alike.  It seems that only the far, far left wing progressives are the ones who do not want voter id.  From the Union Leader:

The House voted 255-103 for a compromise bill requiring photo identification for voters at the polls beginning with November’s general election.

The agreement reached by negotiators combines the Senate and House versions of the bill, with the more lenient Senate version serving as a 15-month transition period and the more restrictive House version in place after Sept. 1, 2013. Voters would be required to present a photo ID at the November general election or sign an affidavit.
