[caption id="attachment_2005" align="alignright" width="135" caption="9/11 Truther James von Brunn"][/caption] James W. von Brunn, the suspect in Wednesday’s shooting at the Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, DC, believed “that many grave and still unresolved crimes were committed by US officials prior to, during and after the events of 9/11” according to an online petition he signed. Von Brunn was the 9,196th person to sign the “Petition of Solidarity” hosted on the website Justicefor911.org, which claims it is sponsored in part by the organization 911Truth.org. According to the website over 16,600 people have signed the petition. The petition reads, “most of these apparent crimes [by ...
Gay Marriage Becomes Law in New Hampshire
The Democratic controlled New Hampshire legislature today overcame final hurdles to make the Granite State the sixth state in the nation to recognize gay marriage. By a vote of 14-10 in the Senate and 198-176 in the House, the legislature passed a series of amendments sought by Governor Lynch prior to his agreeing to sign the bill. The governor, a long time opponent of gay marriage who has recently walked back his previously held opinions under pressure from various constituencies, signed the legislation into law soon after passage. It will go into effect on January 1, 2010. Commenting on Lynch’s reversal, former New ...
Lester K’s Career-Best 12 Against Toronto
Jon Lester struck out a career-high twelve batters in Sunday’s 8-2 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays. "He was awesome," said teammate Dustin Pedroia of Lester. "I hope he builds on that and keeps it going. That's some of the best stuff in baseball that he threw out there today." Lester gave Sox fans a taste of his old (ironic since he’s only 25) self after struggling for much of the spring. His ERA currently sits at a lofty 5.65 and he only has four wins in eleven starts, but last year went 16-6 with a 3.21 ERA after a similar ...
Stimulus Job Numbers in Granite State Still a Mystery
The New Hampshire Office of Economic Recovery, the ad hoc agency constructed to oversee stimulus projects in New Hampshire, cannot say how many jobs the stimulus bill has created in the Granite State, despite President Barack Obama’s boast this week that the U.S. is “already seeing results” and that the stimulus has already “saved or created” roughly 150,000 jobs in its first hundred days. NowHampshire.com asked “stimulus czar” Orville “Bud” Fitch earlier this month if he could identify how many jobs the stimulus bill has created. “Not yet,” Fitch replied at the time. “We are still developing the capacity to aggregate ...
SHOCK: House Rejects Lynch’s Demands
Just last week legislation legalizing gay marriage was on the fast track to Gov. John Lynch’s desk, where it would be signed into law, provided the legislature make modest changes respecting the freedom of religion. The Senate accepted the changes today but the House did not. The Senate passed the changes by a vote of 14-10, but the House rejected them by a vote of 188-186. Swift passage by both chambers was expected. The House then voted to continue negotiations with the Senate in a conference committee. “Now even the Democrats are angry at Governor Lynch for trying to have it ...
Groups Asks Shaheen to Oppose Cap and Trade
Late last Friday the final draft of the Waxman-Markey bill was made public. The bill, aimed at promoting clean energy reform, would impose a “cap and trade” system that according to the bill would “provide a declining limit on global warming pollution and to hold industries accountable for pollution reduction under the limit.” Much of the bill is centered around implementing a system of so-called “carbon credits.” Under the proposed bill, a manufacturing facility, for example, would be given x-number of credits. These credits are measurements of gases such as carbon dioxide and methane - gases designated as greenhouse ...
