So, some dumbass NH State Rep made some asinine comment and should resign<\/a>. I’m even willing to accept that. Fine. (Actually, no I’m not. The more I read about it the less I care that this guy said it. Especially since this Rep is a Marine Corps veteran and former Sergeant.) <\/p>\n

But, let’s put this in context. VoteVets is a supposed national organization of millions of vets and supporters that really has it’s finger on the pulse of the country.<\/p>\n

So they go after a state rep from NH? I was going to do my own math, because I actually knew this little factoid, but I wanted to share something from wiki:<\/p>\n

The New Hampshire House of Representatives is the lower house in the New Hampshire General Court. The House of Representatives consists of 400 members coming from 103 districts across the state, created from divisions of the state’s counties. On average, each legislator represents about 3,300 residents. If the same level of representation were present in the U.S. Congress, that body would have approximately 99,000 members, according to current population estimates. Members are paid a salary of $200 per biennium, as are New Hampshire State Senators.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So, this ultra powerful VoteVets has picked a fight with a dude who represents 3,000 people? This from the same group that endorsed a Congressman who went on to sexually harrass his employees, and VoteVets stood by and said jack shit?<\/p>\n

Wow, they sure are powerful. Don’t look directly at them, they can make you disappear. Like Costra Nostra they are.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
