Carol Shea Porter vs Facts

Lately Carol Shea Porter has been pushing letter after letter to any NH related website or newspaper willing to print them.

One of her last rants she criticized Frank Guinta for taking money away from students health care screenings instead of taxing millionaires.  I found this to be a rather shocking assertion so unlike most people I choose to actually dig into facts and find out what exactly she was going on about.

It turns out that the bill she's referring too was the Interest Rate Reduction Act, which passed with both Republican and Democratic party support.   And for the record both Republicans and Democrats voted against it as well making it a fairly bipartisan bill.

Without the act of Congress student loan rates were set to double, increating from 3.4% to 6.8%.

What I find interesting is that while Carol is blasting Frank for supporting this bill Obama was attempting to play the other side of the field touring colleges claiming Republicans opposed keeping loan rates low.

Of course Carol's real issue isn't that Frank Guinta choose to keep loan rates low, it's how he voted to do it.  Carol Shea Porter's answer is higher taxes.

Frank Guinta's answer was to cut a "health" fund which according to The Hill has spent it's money on "bike paths and jungle gyms, ad campaigns against junk food, free spaying and neutering for pets, and even lobbying".

Carol and others would have you believe that without that money kids will be no longer be immunized or women would no longer have breast cancer screenings.

Carol also ignores that president Obama's own budget called to cut $4 billion from that very same fund Republicans choose to cut in order to fund the decreased loan rates.

Apparently Carol doesn't wish you to learn the full story because the facts don't support her attacks.

As with most pols, Carol Portâge, The Vapid One, is a mile wide and paper thin on a great variety of topics which she feels compelled to lift pen to paper and copy the latest from the DNC pulp fiction factory. Must be that liberal arts education at work: B.S.ing her way through anything to secure a position of power within the political ruling class.

Whereas Feckless Fraudulent Frank is a true man of the people, and NOT desperate to secure a position of power within the political ruling class?

He's no Ron Paul, that's for sure.

Bill,
Frank does have his warts (see my other article about him supporting the bill Obama just signed that outlaws political protesting) but warts and all he's still 100% better the Carol Shea Porter.

Given the time I plan to write a comparison between Carol and Frank showing good and bad of both and explain what even though Frank has his faults he's still far better then Carol.

And thus continues the cycles of lesser evils. How come the Grate State of NH doesn't have any Ron Paul's? We are the "live free, or die" State, for Liberty's Sake!

C. Dog, we do on the state level. I'd urge you to look close at state rep Dick Barry. I've told him on more then one occasion I'd love to see him run for higher offices but because he doesn't always walk lock step with the town Republicans they would rather see "team players".

If I had more time I actually wanted to write up an article about one vote in particular in which Dick was the ONLY no vote in the whole state house. I've been the sole opposing vote on some smaller town committees but it's a lot different to be the 1 against 6 or 10 people then it is to be the 1 against a couple hundred opposing votes. We need more people like that who stand up for what's right even when their own party doesn't support them.

Thanks for the tip, Rick –
I look forward to your write-up on Mr. Barry, and as a general rule respect anyone willing to swim against the tide, especially when attempting a rescue of Lady Liberty.

Put your money where mouth is
Carol Shea-Porter never served in our military. She is a nightmare that just wants to spend taxpayer’s dollars. The editors believe the words of a US Military Veteran with 4 disabilities, three being combat related must be silenced for the safety of the community. My wife and I put up our life savings last week to buy land to start a Veteran Resort-Chapel to help and support US Military Veterans come home mentally and physically free to the US Military Veteran. We did not have to do this but my wife supports my dream to help those that gave so much for the USA. I cannot let what so many gave for you to live free and safe to be in VAIN. It hurts my wife every time the police, editors or the public tells others what a danger to the community that I am. People tend to believe the bad and do not see that I volunteer every day to help other US citizens that I do not even know. It can be seen (as like those that people like Carol live of the backs of the men and women in our Armed Services that help US citizens that they will never know or talk to) using Veteran issues to benefit self-image. I put my money where my mouth is as a US Marine fighting for you and now helping those coming home. The editor’s censor my side.
Response letters just like this one will be censored because it will tell the other side which the editors do not want seen. The opinion of the people to expose government wrongs no longer exists. The NH Supreme Court refuses to hear a case where Judge Peter Fauver criminally violated the Constitution to intentionally harm other natural born US Citizens. NH and the VA stop my medical care for Combat related disabilities to stop my free speech. Carol has me arrested when I ask her for help when she was a U. S. elected official. The voters right to be well informed about candidates running for elected government position is censored. I am running for NH State Senate District 21 do the voters have a right to read my opinion letters of wrongs in government. To censor letters like this one harms all those that could be helped by a Veteran Resort-Chapel. A veteran helping other Veterans is a start.
The NH SC refuses to speak with a disabled US Military Veteran willing to tell the truth about a criminal judge in their command. The case was presented and rejected by the NH SC. Talk about what the United States Armed Services since the creation of the United States of America gave being in VAIN is letting these elite leaders using the trusted power of the people to stop the disabled right to freely speak. About ninety percent of the people never serve in our US Military but because we that do are so few does people like Carol have the right to use us.
The Veteran Resort-Chapel is a US Military Veteran helping other US Military Veterans with the support of my wife and children.
Freedom of Speech stopped by Freedom of the Press under government control.
