It is clear that the Editor of NH Journal doesn’t like this bastion of Conservative / Libertarian news and commentary, given that his veins run blue with Establishment Old Guard and all. After all, we’re just a bunch of ordinary schlubs here at GraniteGrok, bitter clingers to our guns, Bibles, and Conservative / Libertarian viewpoints – we’re just those icky types of folks who, unbelievably, actually have a core set of beliefs.
I guess that from his high perchdom of full time Editor and political operativeness, we don’t matter. Yet, there must be SOMETHING that we’re doing right because he decided to send a rather sneering email to me:

How is it the biggest opportunity to bash a Democrat/Liberal comes along and you guys have stories about snow storms on your site? Kuster dodging taxes is not big enough to cover?? You guys are lame. Keep going after everyone else. I suspect I was the only person who read your site today so you should thank me.

Nice to think that he thinks we’re missing the boat, that poor us just don’t know how to comment on the news that HE thinks is important. Sigh….we are just so forlorn about missing…
…Oh Wait! Mr. Shawn Millerick, luminary of the Intertubes, forgot to do his homework!

Good job on your weaselly “oppo”…..feeling embarrassed yet?
A simple Google search on GraniteGrok would have shown this right off the bat – Yo, Shawn, wanna discuss “lame” (picture, dictionary, and all that)? Yet again, another instance of unforced (and uninformed) stupidity. But, you know, there is a reason why the phrase “when in a hole, stop….” exists:

Nah, I don’t get embarrassed about anything, part of my charm I guess. Have a good night

Good to know, and seems par for the course, for political operatives in general. The response pretty much wrote itself:

That is rather obvious: nope, not much at all.
So, this self-assured Paragon of Journalism (which NH Journal attempts to pass itself off as being such) has made up news about a meeting that never happened out of thin air (even as the Establishment, for whom, it seems, he is a bumkisser (or is “rumpswab” a better fit?) extraordinaire, actually does start to talk about selecting the new NH GOP Chair) and then can’t even do the homework that a fifth grader would do? Shawn, this still hold true.
Sad, just really sad….especially since HE accuses us of not whacking a Democrat even as his wife, former NH GOP Chair Jayne Millerick, gave money to a PAC that gave it to Democrats…. If he is willing to whack us for supposedly not putting up a post about Democrat Kuster , what’s he saying / doing to his wife for actually GIVING money to national Democrats – as tax-cheat Annie Kuster now is?
