NH Democrats Painted Into A Racist Corner?

To Round out the Carol SEIU Porter Post hat trick (it is hockey season) I wanted to address a pressing problem for the left wing, identity-politics, Buckleycrats in the NH CD-1 primary.  One of the primary contestants, Joanne Dowdell, is black.

With Dowdell being ideologically identical to Snowflake Shea-Porter, and given that the super-majority of people casting ballots in the primary contest will be white, will voting against Joann in the Democrat primary be considered racist, or will voting for her be considered racist?

The people constantly subjected to your ridiculously hypocritical narratives would appreciate an answer.

Follow up question: Will racist Democrats avoid this problem by simply not donating enough to sustain Dowdell's campaign,(91% of her current donors are from outside NH) and if so, is donating or not donating to her campaign racist?

Shea-Porter To Face Democrat Primary

The Concord Monitor is reporting that Portsmouth businesswoman Joanne Dowdell intends to challenge former Congresspersonista Carol SEIU-Porter for a shot at Frank Guinta in 2012.

She characterized her political outlook as similar to that of Shea-Porter, saying it would be up to voters to discern the differences.

"I think you would find that ideologically we're both progressive Democrats," she said. "This is democracy, from my point of view. This is the process in action, and that will be for voters to decide."

CSP 2.0.1?

And she says some very amusing things like...

"Washington politicians have been making life harder for families here in New Hampshire and throughout the country,"

We noticed that and responded in November 2010, but being a Democrat Committeewoman at large, and as a major Obama-Zombie, does CSP 2.0.1 want us to believe she had no idea that her party did that on purpose?

Dowdell said she was not ready to commit to specific policy positions but intends to speak extensively with residents of the district to learn about their concerns.

"I'll know better when I get out and talk to them and listen to what they have to say," she said.

Maybe we'll get the "I am a blank canvass" shtick?  I am what people make me out to be.  Sure but all the roads still lead to top-down, state-controlled, central planning.  

For those unfamiliar, the left-wing-salad bar-policy-buffet is a progressive core-value; until she's told what talking points to use to advance the current set of feelings about the next best path to socialism, by someone above her pay grade, she won't have the slightest idea what to tell you she believes.  But we already know.  She says she is just like Carol.  That makes her a Marxist pawn of the party leadership.

So the next question is, is this a real challenge or is there some other game afoot?  Is Dowdell meant to play extremist so CSP looks dull and moderate by comparison?  Or can we expect some kind of massive, left wing cat-fight? And what will all of Carol's doting fans do? (They do love her so.)

I can't wait to watch and find out.

Granite State Progress Goes Tucson

GraniteGrok has a weekly on-line internet broadcast called GrokTalk! that streams every Saturday from 9am - 11am--posting pod-casts after.   I do some behind the scenes production work, occasionally co-host, and every now and then call in.

This week I did a call-in because last week Zandra Rice Hawkins of Granite State Progress attended Congressman Guinta's town hall in Laconia, and at one point decided to storm up towards the podium to 'set the record straight.'  She was not tackled, tasered or shot.  In fact she spoke her mind--as liberals are wont to do--without interruption and was even given a chance to ask questions despite essentially hijacking the event.

While I have to wonder if she was hoping for some sign of violence it did not occur.  In fact she was not  escorted out, arrested, or even asked to leave.  The congressman listened and responded, allowing follow ups as he had throughout the event.

Compare that to the behavior of our former, ever-paranoid and remarkably unstable Carol Shea-Porter, keeper of the egg timer, refuser of follow ups, and high horse evictor of conscientious objectors who dare to disagree with her in any tone she finds unworthy.  Rude and elitist only scratches the surface.

Mr. Guinta, so far, has shown a lot more class than the woman he replaced.  You don't have to agree with him politically to appreciate that.

So back to Hawkins.

In celebration of her going Tucson (that's charging a sitting member of congress) just weeks after that tragedy,  and given ex-Kongresswoman Carol Che-Porter's history at Town halls on both sides of the podium, I threw together a "Public Service Announcement" about Zandra and the group she leads to commemorate the event.

Skip plays it in this segment from GrokTalk! this past Saturday, and we discuss it briefly after.

NPR Gets It Right For A Change

Sometimes NPR's web site aggregates links based on a topic, like Carol Shea-Porter's Chinese Connection, and then puts up a page and fills it with related content.  I don't always notice but today, "Google Alerts" pulled in WMUR's fact check of NH Journal and dropped it in my In-Box.  When I went there (here) I discovered that the lead piece was a post from Boo Hoo Hamster, followed below by a handful of "related" posts which appear to be collected at random based on a keyword search similar to the topic in the lead.

There's a link to an NPR story, a second BH post, something from Seacoast Online, a great post from RedState (Which does a fine job of pinning Carol to her original comment) and then a cross post of mine picked up from the Free State Blog which is actually irrelevant but web crawlers are not perfect.

Nice work, but that is not what I wanted to share.   In the right column of the NPR page (which I saved) is a picture exactly like the one to the left, where Nancy Pelosi's face is shown with Carol Shea-Porter's name under it.

Never has NPR, to my knowledge, ever gotten something as right as this.

I would like to thank them for providing me with material (for Carol's likely stumble to lose reelection to her former seat in 2012) which clearly exemplifies one of many reasons why she should never be permitted to represent anyone in any position of power, ever again.

Low Road To China

Our very own Moonbat Shea-Porter has responded to comments she made about about Chinese influence peddling, specifically that she was implying that the Chinese may have cost her re-election.

“It’s not taken out of context, it’s a lie,” Shea-Porter said. “I never said the Chinese defeated me. I never said anything of the sort.”

To Carol's credit this is about a lie but not the one she imagines.  The real lie is the same lie she and most of her party have been selling as truth since the Supreme court ruling on Citizen United.  That this ruling changed how international contributions are handled. 

Carol believes what she has been told by Nancy Pelosi and the influence peddlers in her own party, believes it so strongly that she could never be bothered to accept that the truth was anything more than the opposition "pushing back."

The ruling did not touch regulations on foreign contributions.  And all the rules for legal contributions apply equally to all parties.  So Shea-Porter's endless screed on special interest foreign money is the rambling of an idiot, posing as a lawmaker, who is either ignorant of the law, or so blinded by ideology as to be incapable of seeing the truth.

The real lie is the one she keeps telling and the irony is that special interests did cost her the election.  Her own.
