KingCast oldie of the day for Franconia and NH State leaders on HB 1428: The Staple Sisters, "I'll take you there."

By Christopher King

I have direct knowledge that every NH statesman/woman has received emails from the Franconia Collective and others, including a retired JAG attorney decrying HB 1428. I have direct knowledge that I can sue to discover who opened the emails as well, so for those of you who don't pay attention I'll be able to discover that. I believe that I'm entitled to that information, but of course it's not entirely clear because NH AG Kelly Ayotte and her designee to the RSA 91-A Commission failed to ensure that a 2006 report issued (in violation of the law; it did not appear with Mr. Snuffleupagus) and the 2007 report (thanks for the advance copy, Alderman Teeboom) failed to substantively address the issues pertaining to electronic data and evidence but it did mention the likelihood of litigation.

You don't want to mess with KingCast or the Franconia Collective on the First Amendment and Right-to-Know.

BTW the Staples family is proud that Soulive is now leading STAX Records. Here is the STAX history. Missed them in New Year's Eve in Boston, too busy and too broke but that's quite all right. I was there in spirit, totally.

Here's the YouTube audio.

Related YouTube audio: "Let's do it again."

Mercy, Mercy..... I'll take you there..... Oh, oh, oh.... I'll take you there.... Snap your fingers to the rhythm, no sellouts allowed, keep on keepin' on. Growing up with Mother Ann, it was all about groups like the Staple Singers, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Al Green, Good God Lord-have-Mercy it was Golden. I don't like getting old but better that than to have missed that era of music. Too much electronica and perfection now. John Legend (and yes, R Kelly) is a badass though, totally. Kanye brings it right. And folks like Jill Scott and others as noted in the New Year's post.

Mother Ann did not know Liko Kenney or the Franconia area, probably never even heard of either one. But her first husband was a lawyer waaaaay before black folks had that privilege too often, and she did know right from wrong, and what was going on in Franconia with Law Enforcement Bruce McKay style was nothin' but wrong. And I'm gonna' keep on tellin' it until the story is told. I know she and Liko Kenney would have it no other way.

Note to Casey Sherman: As you write your book, know that I made it clearer for you.
