NH GOP calls on Sen Shaheen to Condemn Joe Biden's Reckless comments about NH Primary Status
Friday, September 30, 2011 at 07:47AM 
Concord, NH – Joe Biden yesterday attempted to minimize the significance of the New Hampshire Presidential primary in response to Florida’s decision to break the rules and move their primary up. (You can see Joe Biden’s comments HERE.)
NH GOP Chair Wayne MacDonald released the following statement on the situation:
"Jeanne Shaheen and Ray Buckley should immediately condemn the Vice President for his statements and vigorously defend New Hampshire’s first-in-the-nation status. It is insulting that Joe Biden would insinuate that New Hampshire is a small and insignificant state in comparison to states like California and Florida.
“Jeanne Shaheen’s democrat party was quick to criticize New Hampshire Republicans for Florida’s move yesterday, yet remains silent while Vice President Joe Biden is in Florida undermining the importance of the New Hampshire Primary. Myself as well as the Republican members of the delegation, were quick to weigh-in in support of our Primary yesterday, we expect the same reaction from the Democrat party when it is one of thier own who attacks our First in the Nation status," said Wayne MacDonald.

Since it is the party of the Teachers Unions perhaps you should go ask them why people call it the Democrat Party!
Report back how many actually knew the real answer, that is if you know the real answer.

On an unrelated matter (or maybe it is related), I have to take exception to the description you give this website under the About Us link. You claim "NHInsider is a 'Multi-Partisan' not a 'Non-Partisan' website" and yet when people post differing opinions on some blogs, those posts are summarily deleted. This makes the website seem VERY (mono?)partisan. If you are only interested in Republican view points on this site maybe you should require people to show their voter registration before posting. If you disagree with what someone is saying, respond back to them with your reasons why. Or, if you feel it is a waste of your time, just igmore them. To delete them seems like the cowards way out. Censorship is NEVER the correct answer to a problem, in my opinion.

First you missed the point of my post, I told Chris to ask a teacher to explain why it is called the Democrat party by Republicans! They should be able to answer that simple question!
Second it was described as Multi-Partisan because we had bloggers that represented all political sides, Paul Hodes, Rep Splaine and Chaz Proulx were all bloggers hare at one time or another along with Mark Hounsell, Dan Pierce and Jim Rubens. Some just dropped off like Hodes when he ran for the US House others were told to get off by the Party apparatchik, sorry not much I can do about that.
Each Blogger has full editorial control over their blogs. They decide to censor or not, I strongly advise against it but it is their Blog!
Your item above was reposted because quite by accident I deleted it, I went to create this reply and got distracted, clicked and then went Oh Crap .. but being the webmaster here I found it and reposted it for you.
WHHF!

My bad. I was misinterpreting what you meant and I apologize. Also, thank you for your response to my post. I understand that I don't represent the major of posters on this website but I feel it's important that differing opinions be heard. Unfortunately, some people are not able to deal with the idea that not everyone agrees with them and that's a shame. No one person is right 100% of the time and it's through discourse that we all learn form our mistakes and others. That's just my 2 cents.
"Following his inauguration in 2001, President George W. Bush often used the noun-as-adjective when referring to the opposition party. Likewise, it has been used by former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, House Minority Leader John Boehner, Senator Charles Grassley,Congressman Steve Buyer, and other Republicans."
