Do Moonbats Fly North?

After Obama-mania left New Hampshire, Howie Carr points out the evidence:

“New Hampshire is Blue Hampshire. It’s gone from the Granite State to the Granola State. From Live Free or Die to just plain Live Free. No wonder the Old Man of the Mountain toppled over. Who would have ever predicted that New Hampshire would someday send clones of Bernie Sanders and Cindy Sheehan to Congress?

“This is all very depressing to the Massachusetts natives who fled north thinking they could escape the insanity. ‘Where do I go next?’ one of them moaned to me Monday

“In 2004, many New Hampshire Republicans thought the state was stolen from George Bush by busloads of Bay State students who allegedly took advantage of notoriously lax same-day registration.

“Now the moonbats will be heading north, and they’ll be staying, at least until the presidential primary.

“But there is a silver lining to this dark cloud. This blue tidal wave should save the New Hampshire primary. New Hampshire is no longer out of the mainstream. It’s as nutty as everywhere else.”

I wasn’t too convinced after reading this piece, so I went looking for answers – and I found some.

1) They certainly teach in New Hampshire. Nutty Professor William Woodward “teaches” at the University of New Hampshire, spouting wild conspiracy theories surrounding 9/11 – at a public university, funded by taxpayer money. He’s a member of the unhinged wacko group “Scholars for 9/11 Truth” whose main contention is that 9/11 was an inside job. Peruse the website and try not to vomit. Here is one article that I HAD to read (and no I did NOT write it – can you TELL?):

“If the official story is wrong, then what did happen? As you might expect, there's quite a bit of dissension on this point. Like any movement, the Truth Movement is beset by internecine fights between different factions: those who subscribe to what are termed LIHOP theories (that the government "let it happen on purpose") and the more radical MIHOP ("made it happen on purpose") contingent. Even within these groups, there are divisions: Some believe the WTC was detonated with explosives after the planes hit and some don't even think there were any planes.

“To the extent that there is a unified theory of the nature of the conspiracy, it is based, in part, on the precedent of the Reichstag fire in Germany in the 1930s. The idea is that just as the Nazis staged a fire in the Reichstag in order to frighten the populace and consolidate power, the Bush Administration, military contractors, oil barons and the CIA staged 9/11 so as to provide cause and latitude to pursue its imperial ambitions unfettered by dissent and criticism.”

There’s that whole “Bush is a Nazi” thing again…

Here is more on Woodward’s moonbat antics.

2) They certainly vote that way in New Hampshire. Take a look at this op-ed from the Washington Post. The figures point to a staggering voting trend in New Hampshire – the inclination to vote Democrat. Hmmm…wonder why that is, since, as the column points out, the state hasn’t been under complete Democratic control since 1874…

Maybe because…

3) People from Massachusetts DO move there! Look at this staggering statistic:

“…on net, 78,201 former Massachusetts residents fled to the Granite State between 1990 and 2002 - with a sharp acceleration in movement over the last five years. In 1997-98, on net, the Bay State lost 5,014 residents; that number almost doubled to 9,953 by 2001-2002, a 98.5% increase.”

And we all know how blue a state Massachusetts is. But has the moonbattery affected all New Hampshire residents?

4) I don’t think so, but hopefully Republicans don’t follow the logic of Mary Maxwell, who calls herself a “Republican” – thankfully, she only won 11% of the vote in the Republican primary. From her website:

a) she is against increases in defense (read: “military”) spending
b) she is against the Patriot Act
c) she thinks, no, IS CERTAIN, that 9/11 was an inside job
d) she thinks Donald Rumsfeld is sociopathic

Sound like a Republican to you? More like a moonbat to me…

But at least now we know: Moonbats do indeed fly North…now, what to do about it…
