The legislature just doesn't get it. They didn't learn a thing from the election of Scott Brown. They don't seem to realize that the people of this state are sick to death of being pushed around, taken advantage of, and seeing people who lie, cheat, and steal get advantages that people who do the right thing do not get.
For example, they've reintroduced a bill that would allow illegal immigrants the right to pay in-state tuition at public colleges in the state. That's right, some kid comes here illegally and gets a discount but some kid from New Hampshire who plays by the rules, whose parents actually pay taxes, and who contribute to society, have to pay the full amount.
Howie Carr points out that the people who introduced this legislation have some hell of a nerve. They are former State Sen. Anthony Galluccio (who is currently serving time in the slammer for drinking while on probation) and State Rep. Marie St. Fleur. You may recall St. Fleur ran for lieutenant governor for about a day in 2006 until it came out that she didn't pay her taxes or her student loans. No wonder she is pushing for this bill!
See Howie's column here. Great stuff.
