grace

boborbill — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 02:41:44 GMT

Grace, (she is not her father or her sister both are great people<Manchester politics is impossible to understand without lots of unwritten history>
I have meet and personally like grace, but her actions trying to stop free speech<Joe Kelley/Steve valencourt> back in the day scares me.

Here is one example:

It is generally accepted in Manchester political circles that grace favors democrats with better coverage and more favorable coverage. Grace's channel tapes 2 debates for mayor between the rep. frank and Dem. tom.  In the first debate frank(R) destroys tom(D). she plays it 3 times. the second debate frank declined the invitation and did not go. Grace places an empty podium with franks name in front. This turned in to 1 hour of how great tom was and how bad frank was. Grace ran this debate more than 30 times.

I have no problem with grace supporting tom.  I in fact support her supporting and anyone who else gets involved.  I have a problem with grace taking my tax dollars and supporting one political party/or siphon it off to family favors(her MCTV rent).

In Manchester New Hampshire, low level very active political candidates should have equal government controlled media time.  For almost ten years she had no rules on what goes on the air.  She just made it up. It took a long time with many political subliminal attacks and sabotages under grace's belt before Joe Kelley and Steve could sue and force free access to government media, Instead of firing her nepotism gave us two stations, grace did do a lot for Dan O'Neil and Lopez (i am down with you guys) and the whole general political machine of Manchester so when Jim Roy asks "Whats the deal with this?" sitting on the board reviewing the budgets of the two station and a lackey from the school board sweeps our as Manchester citizens voters/candidates rights under the carpet with "Do we really want to get into that".


Does anyone have any you tube shots of grace in action? The "I am a DOCTOR" attack on Kathy L. would be great. I edited together 12 min. of grace in front of the school board for Joe Kelley back in the day. Seeing her in her real form is the only way to understand.

Lopez used N-Word against Obama

grapes — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 16:29:35 GMT

Maybe my pal Peter "the village idiot" Sullivan is on to something about Alderman at Large Mike Lopez. I was talking to a newly elected individual the other day and the big back story about being a the new vice chairman of the board concerns none other than double two face biggot Mike Lopez. Seems he voted for McCain because as Lopez stated to a friend he recently double crossed "no one is going to vote for that ni--er Obama or that bi-ch Hillary." I understand the guy who was told this would take a lie detector test too. The dems on the board are worried that this story about Lopez is going to hurt the board as a whole and want Lopez to step away from taking the vice chair back. I wonder if briggs or kelly have the guts to tell this one on their suposedly big show?

http://biggovernment.com/2009/11/16/how-andy-stern-got-around-obamas-no-lobbyist-policy-he-just-didnt-register/

"The evidence appears to put Mr. Stern in quite the pickle. The LDA defines a lobbyist as a person who spends over 20% of his time on lobbying activities and has two or more lobbying contacts. It is important to note that the calculation of the 20% of time spent on lobbying activities includes numerous activities beyond direct lobbying contacts, and is with respect to a calendar quarter of a year. A lobbyist must be registered by his or her employer and both must file reports disclosing their lobbying activities.

A lobbying contact includes any oral or written communication with certain individuals in the federal government (covered officials) regarding the formulation, modification or adoption of legislation, programs, policies or positions of the government, as well as government contracts or nominations of individuals subject to Senate confirmation. The public officials in government who are covered officials include any person in the White House and any Member, Senator or staff member of Congress.

Lobbying activity under LDA includes time spent on lobbying contacts as well as time spent by the individual on any efforts to support his or her, or anothers, lobbying contacts such as preparation or planning activities, research and other background work, as well as time spent coordinating the lobbying activities of others.

Failure to file accurate reports or to register under LDA is a violation of the Act, which provides for civil penalties of up to $200,000 and criminal penalties of up to 5 years in prison. Reports must be filed electronically with the Clerk of the House and Secretary of the Senate. Responsibility for enforcement of the Act rests with the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, under 2 U.S.C. 1605. In addition, the Government Accountability Office is required under the LDA to conduct random audits of filers. It does not appear that there has been an audit of the SEIU reports.

During the first calendar quarter of 2009, Mr. Stern went to the White House on 11 separate days, including twice on February 18. In the second calendar quarter, Mr. Stern visited on 9 days, and twice on April 13 for a total of 10 visits. Since White House personnel, including the President and Vice President, are considered covered officials under LDA, all of Mr. Sterns communications with them during these 22 visits covering 20 days would constitute lobbying contacts. The time spent at the White House also constitutes lobbying activity time which must be captured for determining whether Mr. Stern spent more than 20% of his time during any calendar quarter engaged in lobbying. (Incidentally, in 2008, on his own LM-2 disclosure form filed with the U.S. Department of Labor, Mr. Stern disclosed that he spent at least 24% of his time on lobbying and political activities, without separating those two activities out.)"

Will we ever be able to take out the trash and reclaim our government? I'm so sick this garbage. Both parties are guilty - we need to clean house & keep cleaning it until we scrub these career politicians out. We also need to make it illegal for ex-congress & senators from being allowed to work as lobbyists once they're scrubbed from "public service".

Social Security Update

GreyGhost — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 00:48:19 GMT

HERE'S ANOTHER TID-BIT FOR YA . . .. THE REVO IS COMING . ..

For the first time in history, Congress will not allow an increase in  the social security COLA (cost of living adjustment). In fact, The  Henry J.. Kaiser Family Foundation predicts there may not be any COLA  for the next three years.. However, the per-person monthly Medicare  Insurance premium will be increased from the 2009 premium of $96.40 to  $104.20 in 2010 and to $ 120.20 for the year 2011.

Send this to all the seniors you know to remind them not to vote  for the incumbent senators and congressmen in the 2010 and the 2012  Elections.

And don't forget - CONGRESS GAVE THEMSELVES A PAY RAISE THIS YEAR...



2010 is an election year for 1/3 of the senate and all of thehouse of representatives. It would be nice if congress got the message; the voting taxpayers are in charge now.

Social Security 2009

LET US SHOW OUR LEADERS IN WASHINGTON "PEOPLE POWER" AND THE POWER OF THE INTERNET.

PLEASE FORWARD TO ALL OF YOUR FRIENDS.

IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU ARE REPUBLICAN OR DEMOCRAT!

KEEP IT GOING!!!!

Propose this in 2009:

START A MOVEMENT TO PLACE ALL POLITICIANS ON SOCIAL SECURITY

------------ --------- --------- ----

SOCIAL SECURITY:

(This is worth reading. It is short and to the point.)

Perhaps we are asking the wrong questions during election years.

Our Senators and Congresswomen do not pay into Social Security and, of course, they do not collect from it.

You see, Social Security benefits were not suitable for persons of their rare elevation in society. They felt they should have a special plan for themselves So, many years ago they voted in their ownbenefit plan.

In more recent years, no congress person has felt the need to change it. After all, it is a great plan.

For all practical purposes their plan works like this:

When they retire, they continue to draw the same pay until they die.
Except it may increase from time to time for cost of living adjustments. .....

For example, Senator Byrd and Congressman White and their wives may expect to draw $7, 800,000.00 (that's Seven Million, Eight-Hundred Thousand Dollars), with their wives drawing $275, 000..00 during the last years of their lives  This is calculated on an average life span for each of those Dignitaries.

Younger Dignitaries who retire at an early age, will receive much more during the rest of their lives.

Their cost for this excellent plan to them is $0.00. NADA!!   ZILCH!!!

This little perk they voted for themselves is free to them. You and I pick up the tab for this plan. The funds for this fine retirement plan come directly from the General Funds;

"OUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK"!

From our own Social Security Plan, which you and I pay (or have paid) into, every payday until we retire (which amount is matched by our employer), We can expect to get an average of
$1,000 per month after retirement.

Or, in other words, we would have to collect our average of $1,000 monthly benefits for 68 years and one (1) month to equal Senator Bill Bradley's benefits!

Social Security could be very good if only one small change were made.

That change would be to

Jerk the Golden Fleece Retirement Planfrom under the Senators and Congressmen. . Put them into the Social Security plan with the rest of us

Then sit back.....

And see how fast they would fix it!

ALSO ALLOW ONLY 8 YEARS OF SERVICE FOR CONGRESS AND 12 YEARS FOR SENATE

If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of awareness will be planted and maybe good changes will evolve.

How many people can YOU send this to?

Better yet......

How many people WILL you send this to ?

Following the precendent he set in the middle east, Obama bowed to the Emperor of Japan (something you would not see in the lamestream media).

No doubt he then apologized for our dropping the atomic bomb on Japan during WWII.

Ray Buckley's Past is coming home to Roost!

BobM — Sun, 15 Nov 2009 22:50:47 GMT

Raymond Buckley's past allegations of being a pedophile seem to be coming home to roost. As many of you may or may not know Ray Buckley's 15 year roommate stated that his former roomate had a "penchant for pedophilia" The roomate also stated that Buckley used to watch sexually explicit video of male minors and had brought home pedophilia from Amsterdam (Holland) . The ultra-liberal website BlueHampshire is calling for an appology from Doug Lambert for speaking the truth and for lambasting Buckley for being what everyone with any common sense knows Buckley is A PERVERT that runs the democratic state party in NH. Great job electing Buckley NH democrats.

After his radio show "Meet the New Press" ended today, GraniteGrok.com co-founder Doug Lambert looked into a live web-streaming camera, mockingly wished state Democratic Party Chairman Ray Buckley a Happy Birthday and then called Buckley a "faggot" before basically wishing him dead. Buckley is the only openly gay chair of a state party in the country. He is also the first openly gay male vice chair of the Democratic National Committee. After co-host Skip Murphy said that he should probably shut off the feed, Lambert looked into the camera and said, "Speaking of gays, Happy Birthday Ray Buckley. Are you going to Holland or taking another trip with your buddies?" He then dances in a way meant to mock a gay male and says:" Yeah you Faggot. That's right I said it and I meant it. You are reprobate. How the people, the Democrats, I think of some of the gray haired ladies and older people from the old party would stand behind you is beyond me. You are a disgrace to yourself to humanity to mankind and to your party."Other than that Happy Birthday Ray and many more -- not," Lambert continued before the feed was quickly shut off.

Fire Grace Sullivan NOW!

casper — Sun, 15 Nov 2009 22:37:48 GMT

Grace Sullivan must be fired, when she is gone the whole issue over mcam and mctv will be finalized once and for all. When all three stations were one, there were three lawsuits filee solely because of Grace Sullivans actions. In my opinion, she is a liar and a fraud and a mean person with an ax to grind and is the reaosn for all of this acrimony. Since mcam left there has not been any lawsuits and none are on the horizon, but of course, Grace the loon and her pals at mctv are ramped up to sue the city if they dont get their way. Typical grace sullivan move, stamp her feet and act like a complete idiot and a cry baby pointing fingers at everyone but herself. Just fire her and let this crap rest once and for all. Grace Sullivan IS the PROBLEM! no one else, if she would have been fired years ago, none of this would be going on today and maybe the city could solve some real problems. This whole thing is disgusting me and many others who have had enough of manchesters biggest public embarrassment.

Lou Dobbs Quits CNN

SaveNH — Thur, 12 Nov 2009 15:13:47 GMT

Tired of being constantly told to censor his opinions, Lou Dobbs last night quit CNN after his nightly broadcast. He says he will be pursuing other avenues to speak his mind on the issues he believes in. Immigrant groups and supporters had long called for his ouster because he was outspoken on illegal aliens, and now they seem to be celebrating CNN's loss of its possibly highest drawing on air personality.

Political Correctness gone awry

SaveNH — Thur, 12 Nov 2009 01:48:45 GMT

The slaying of 14 American Soldiers at Ft. Hood Texas is the result of Political Correctness gone awry. When people are afraid to classify somebody as a threat because they are a Muslim, this is what can happen. I'm not saying Muslims are bad people, I'm saying that loonies are bad people, and when we are afraid to confront and deal with them head on, because they are a minority or of another Faith, then we fail our country and its people. And that is what happened in Ft. Hood.

Many people noted how off the wall this Hassan was, but because he was Muslim, felt it politically incorrect to treat him as the nut-job he is. 14 Americans died to find out that Political Correctness can kill. Let this be a lesson and a turning oint.

WTF? New Hampshire gov buys newspaper?!?

gormans — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 21:10:20 GMT

Disgusting.

__________________________________

The state of New Hampshire last week agreed to guarantee 75 percent of a $250,000 loan from an Upper Valley bank to the new owner of the Eagle Times, an unusual deal because it involves a daily newspaper and the government it covers.

The Executive Council on Wednesday unanimously approved without debate the working capital loan guarantee, which would be administered by the New Hampshire Business Finance Authority.

Under the deal, the BFA and the state would be liable to pay up to $187,500 to Connecticut River Bank if Eagle Printing & Publishing LLC defaulted on the $250,000 line of credit it would receive from the bank.
