There was a movie from the 1970s with Peter Finch, Sean Connery, Hardy Kruger about an Italian expedition to the North Pole with a zeppelin, which crashes and the survivor’s huddle in a tattered ‘Red Tent’, the movie’s title.
Today, it seems that all the Democrat Party can offer us in the Live Free or Die state is a tattered Red Tent thanks to the increasingly empty shelves in our supermarkets, our increasing gasoline prices, our chilly homes.
You see, we are getting the slightest kiss of socialism here in The Granite State, a kiss made even less tasteful thanks to our two far-left federal senators.
One, Madame Shaheen, has called for “Révolution!” should we stop murdering infants able to live outside the womb, while the other, Madame Hassan, has just brought us pap out of a trillion dollars, such is her vast amount of “influence.”

Now we know, according to our president for life, Middle-Class Joe Biden, who regularly reaps the Chinese bumper money crop, that our junior senator, Maggie Hassan, is allegedly responsible for bringing NH across the ‘Build It Back Better’ finish line. Albeit dead last. But she dragged us across that line like a dead horse going to the knackers.
Perhaps the ‘Magster’, as folks in East Derry, North Londonderry, and points nor-nor-east call Madame Hassan, could have used a few of these men identifying as women who are tearing up the athletic records once held by the ‘women folk’, as John Wayne so daintily described the opposite sex in “She Wore A Yellow Ribbon.”
“Womenfolk to the rear,” the Duke hollered to Victor McLaglen, as his cavalry troop readied for action on the Technicolor screen. We’ll have no more of that kind of talk if the ‘Magster’ and her woke cohorts continue on their path towards all things race-related, Democrat, and proscribed by the foregoing.
In today’s rush for money, we don’t have and, for the record, it’s a series of sums so vast, so exorbitant that we can rest assured that the Red Chinese don’t have it either, which means we’ll do it the Weimar, Germany, way. We’ll just print money. And if inflation continues to grow exponentially, we’ll simply print the bills on just one side to save “money.”
But it sure was grand to see our entire congressional delegation, Sens. Shaheen, Hassan, and Reps. Kuster and Pappas, with ‘Tio Pepe’ Biden, as his friends from south of the border, call him, leading the pod, marching by the NH 175 bridge in Woodstock.
Strange, but that same bridge was just upgraded by NH DOT in November of 2020, according to the DOT website, with renovations to the bridge deck. Were Biden, his government money, and Hassan and her bringing NH in dead last really needed there? Well, you know federal contractors always do it better than our own Continental Paving.
In the biting words of NRSC Spokesman T.W. Arrighi: “Maggie Hassan’s record is so bad that she has resorted to touting a bill that gives her state the least amount of money in the country. So, it’s not hard to see why the numbers are so bad for President Biden, his agenda, and his Democrat allies in Congress – they have all failed the Granite State and are working to make their problems worse.” And working very hard to make it worse.
Ah, Maggie Hassan, hardly working for the hard-working folk in the Granite State.
