| A Democratic state lawmaker´s recent web post critical of the libertarian-leaning Free State Project has gone virtually viral in the past few days and, as one might expect, has drawn criticism. Reacting to reports that the Free State Project is aggressively trying to bring 20,000 supporters to live in the state over the next two years, Rep. Cynthia Chase, D-Keene, wrote on BlueHampshire.com: “In the opinion of this Democrat, Free Staters are the single biggest threat the state is facing today.”

Comments: I would vote for making NH unwelcoming to Massachusetts liberals moving north to escape the liberal lunacy that is Massachusetts. Unfortunately, no one elected me Dictator. The Free State Project is trying to show that Libertarian concepts of small government and individual freedoms lead to a high quality of life. See http://freestateproject.org/ for more information. Social engineers like Ms. Chase hate these ideas.

Cynthia Chase is what the NH Democrat party and BlueHampshire.com is all about pompous elitist who think they know better than you. They are also control freaks and they hate freedom lovers.

I think this is the same nut Rush was talking about yesterday. No wonder it got national attention,overnight.
it would actually be pretty simple to create a liberal free state,simply by dumping welfare programs.

Don´t minimize what she´s saying, use it against ALL democrats - it´s what they´d do, right?
Yes, Democrats want to restrict the freedoms of anyone not a liberal Dem.
This is how Hilter did it - one group at a time.

Saying she "looks like a Teamster" is an insult to Teamsters everywhere. She really look more like "Jabba the Hut", which I suppose is an insult to Huts everywhere.

Jabba is much more attractive!! He is also more feminine!
I think it is great that the leftists feel safe in expressing their real views now. It shows people what they are really like. Some people are still blind to it, but I believe some others are starting to realize that they have been sold a bill of rotten goods. Now, if only we can make that work for us...

We have had our political Ups/Downs and right now we are in a real New Hampshire Downer!
Not only did ‘WE’ vote for Obama twice but we put an incredibly stupid woman in as NH governor, changed control of the house from GOP to Donkycraps and replaced our two GOP US Reps with screaming liberal JackAss woman whose total focus is birth control and child welfare and instituting a state income and sales tax.
A friend of mine who professes to be a Conservative Libertarian voted for these three Left Wing Witches because his property taxes are too high. Go figure!
It is obvious who went to the polls in NH and who stayed home last November. The NH GOP was totally outclassed by the Dem’s organization and Obama’s tidal wave.
And now we see that one of our second term NH state reps is a Flipping Fascist!!!!!!!!!!
Being elected from Keene, AKA San-Fran-East, it is no wonder that the gays/perverts/druggies/Marxist and college students from Keene would reelect her.
Several years ago I was enthusiastic about Free Staters congregating in NH but the Libertarian focus of the movement that focuses on eradicating most all drug laws is a total nonstarter for me. If they would disavow the drug law BS, I would reconsider.
Druggies have infested the Libertarians who dominate the Free Staters which is a real shame.
Unfortunately, Libertarian does not equal Conservative.

There seems to be a real problem with "We the People" defining all of US, not just one Party.
Yesterday´s photo looked like Cynthia was wearing fatigues. Wonder if she wears arm boots.
Someone posted her email address yesterday. Wonder how many emails she received.

Yes, #8 I have seen a picture.
She is not young. She does not have a good hair dresser. She wears glasses similar to the granny glasses of the 1960s. She looks very tired. She does not have a nice smile. She does have more than one chin.
Other than that, I would caution you. The picture is as Rush described. Her unflattering photo was on Breitbart yesterday I believe.

#11, I wouldn´t let that stop you...druggies will be around whether or not the drugs are legal. That will not change. Look at what a total disaster the "War on Drugs" is. All it did was turn our law enforcement into jackbooted thugs, corrupt our entire criminal justice system, fill our prisons with hundreds of thousands of simple addicts (instead of providing treatment), and create an even bigger drug and gang problem than before. Maybe the Libertarians aren´t so wrong on this issue after all.

With demonrats running NH now, I´m looking forward to some of the stupidity of CO coming to pass in NH. The CO legislature (infested by libtards fleeing CA) is considering a law requiring all dogs to wear life vests when in the water and a mandate that a certified lifeguard be present. Or maybe some of CA´s stupid laws and taxes (for which NY always always follows their lead).

With Washington gripped by a trio of exploding scandals this week – from Benghazi to government spying on news outlets to thug tactics by the Internal Revenue Service – Senate Democrats seem to be hoping that if they just yell loud enough then voters will overlook a key role they played in at least one of them. (Snip) Over the last three years, Democratic senators repeatedly and publicly pressured the IRS to engage in the very activities that they are only now condemning today. At the same time, Republicans repeatedly and publicly warned against this abuse of government power

BELCHERTOWN – Shortly after midnight Tuesday, seven people were caught trespassing at the Quabbin Reservoir. State Police say the five men and two women are from Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and Singapore, and “cited their education and career interests” for being in the area. The men told police they were chemical engineers and recent college graduates. The Quabbin, in Belchertown, is one of the country’s largest man-made public water supplies.

CONCORD - Representatives of the hospitality industry are expected to turn out in force today to support a Senate proposal that would block state tax collectors from using tips to calculate a business owner´s tax bill. (Snip) For a profitable restaurant, the change would increase the deduction against the business profits tax, and could be a wash. But for an unprofitable or break-even business, the change would mean a significant increase in taxes.

The recent bombings at the Boston marathon finishing line once again reminded Americans of their vulnerability to terrorist acts. Fresh in the collective public awareness is also the issue of gun violence. Congress is at the same time wrestling with immigration reform. It is very interesting to note that while background checks are considered the major method to control gun violence, with regard to immigration Democrats have very aggressively fought the existing Federal background checks required for persons entering the U.S.

Gun control has been driving the news this week, or at least the mail. In recent weeks readers have been encouraging me to dive into the morass. There is so much noise on this issue that I don´t know where to begin. (Snip) There are abundant gun laws on the books. If they were enforced and followed up we might be able to make a dent in gun violence. But laws don´t curb the lawless.

Today the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Economic Analysis released their 2012 personal income estimates. Personal income is an important economic measure of a state’s well-being. (Snip) Since 1950, Maine has increased taxes and spending dramatically with the introduction of the sales tax in 1951 and the income tax in 1969. New Hampshire, on the other hand, did not. Increasing taxes on the private sector has two consequences. First, higher taxes will mean less money in the pockets of individuals and businesses which will reduce their ability to invest for the future.

Many who march in the army of the president say that all they want is to return to the good old days when Bill Clinton rode the range and rich people paid their fair share of taxes. Back then, they say, all was good. In 2000, the top tax rate was 39.6 percent and there was a 2.9 percent Medicare tax on top of that. (Snip) This means that the top stated rate for taxes is now 43.4 percent — a rate that is higher than that paid in Clintonian times.

WASHINGTON – The Internal Revenue Serviced scandal today spread further within the White House and closer to President Obama. White House spokesman Jay Carney today disclosed that Obama’s chief of staff, Dennis McDonough, and other top White House officials had advance warning that the IRS was targeting conservative groups. But he insisted McDonough and the other White House officials purposely kept Obama out of the loop.McDonough “rightly chose not to take action” to inform Obama, Carney told reporters at the daily White House briefing.

The Washington Post on Monday reported that Obama’s Department of Justice was investigating journalists before they started wiretapping the Associated Press – for one, Fox News correspondent James Rosen in 2010. Their headline wasn´t "Obama Team Also Spied on Fox News." Fox wasn´t in the headline, on A-1 or on A-12, where the story continued. Newly obtained court documents “reveal how deeply investigators explored the private communications of a working journalist — and raise the question of how often journalists have been investigated as closely as Rosen was in 2010.” Reporter Ann Marimow began:

The wheels came off the Obama administration yesterday. We learned of a startling assault on freedom of the press by the Department of Justice, following the revelation last week of the unprecedented information-gathering foray by that department against The Associated Press. Then, a few minutes later, the Justice Department’s inspector general released a report declaring that the US attorney in Arizona used the leak of a confidential memo to try to discredit a whistleblower in the notorious “gun-walking” scandal known as Fast and Furious (which got two federal agents killed). The leak was called “egregious.”

WASHINGTON – A top IRS official in the division that reviews nonprofit groups will invoke the Fifth Amendment and refuse to answer questions before a House committee investigating the agency’s improper screening of conservative nonprofit groups. Lois Lerner, the head of the exempt organizations division of the IRS, won’t answer questions about what she knew about the improper screening – or why she didn’t reveal it to Congress, according to a letter from her defense lawyer, William W. Taylor 3rd. Lerner was scheduled to appear before the House Oversight committee Wednesday.

A senior adviser to President Obama mounted a combative defense of the administration on Sunday, saying the controversies enveloping the White House were the result of Republican lawmakers’ trying to “drag Washington into a swamp of partisan fishing expeditions, trumped-up hearings and false allegations.”The remarks came from Dan Pfeiffer, a member of the president’s inner circle, as he appeared on all five major Sunday morning talk shows in an effort to move the administration past what commentators have described as a “hell week” of controversy and missteps.

Stuart Varney said this morning on "Varney & Co." that one of his producers was given a questionnaire with some surprisingly intrusive questions on it when he switched doctors. One of the questions was whether he/she was concerned about unsecured weapons in the home. Another asked whether he/she was "in a relationship in which you have been physically hurt or are you afraid of your partner?" Judge Andrew Napolitano explained that the question about guns comes out of a post-Sandy Hook executive order by President Obama, but it will be required under Obamacare. Varney expressed amazement

While many Americans were tuned into news coverage of the massive damage from tornadoes ravaging the state of Oklahoma, Rhode Island Democratic Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse took to the Senate floor to rail against his Republican colleagues for denying the theory of anthropogenic global warming. Whitehouse spent 15 minutes chastising GOP senators and justified his remarks by alluding to states that seek federal assistance in the wake of natural disasters. “So, you may have a question for me,” Whitehouse said. “Why do you care? Why do you, Sheldon Whitehouse, Democrat of Rhode Island, care
