Statement from NHDP Executive Director Mike Brunelle in Response to John Stephen's Tax Day Tirade

by: DRicher

Thu Apr 15, 2010 at 14:34:36 PM EDT


Concord - New Hampshire Democratic Party Executive Director Mike Brunelle issued the following statement in response to John Stephen's "Tax Day" tirade on state spending.

"John Stephen lecturing about fiscal management is like Tiger Woods lecturing about fidelity.  Stephen is not a fiscal conservative, he is a fiscal incompetent."

"As Health and Human Services Commissioner, John Stephen consistently asked for double-digit increases in his budget. In fact, he even double-counted money creating a $70 million hole in the state budget. Now, federal auditors are demanding that Health and Human Services repay nearly $35 million federal funds spent during his tenure.

"When it comes to being fiscally responsible, John Stephen has no credibility."

(Posted by Derek Richer, press secretary for the New Hampshire Democratic Party.)

Poor Johnny (4.00 / 1)
I bet he was hoping that Governor Lynch would opt out of running again.  

In the last couple of weeks, Republicans were spreading a rumor that the governor would not run again. They seemed to be hoping that if Governor Lynch announced he was not running, some other Republicans would run.

Have you written a letter to the editor today? Have you donated today? Have you put up signs? Have you made calls? Have you talked to your neighbors?
