Part of my “libertarian leanings” as a Conservatarian is for Government’s hands and intrusiveness to be hands-off. Let people, let Individuals, decide for themselves what is best for themselves.

Promoted From the Comments – the Elitism Is Strong Within Her…..and Her Brother.
Democrat Jeanne Dietsch wants Government to choose for you. Denise Ricciardi, her Republican opponent in NH State Senate District 9, wants YOU to make choices for you and yours. Should be an easy pick but let me get on with the Comments.
And in Her Fevered State of Being, I’m Betting Jennifer Horn Thought This One Up
Stupidity on a stick – well, that fits, doesn’t it? Fevered emotion, and a fevered need for yet one more dollar on a string. Who’d they have to fleece to make this self-aggrandizing video? Jennifer Horn really does fit in well with this bunch.
Blogline of the Day, v2.0 – Not Much Self-Awareness at All, Chuckie
Don’t you mean, generations that will NEVER have a chance to be born if the Democrats achieve Power again? Little babies that will only suffer within the darkness of the womb – but only for a few terrifying minutes.
Blogline of the Day – “Black Man Swears in Woman Appointed by Racist Misogynist.”
All we’ve heard for years about Trump is that he hates Jews (both his daughter and son-in-law are Jewish), hates women, is a racist, is a homophobe, and all of the rest of the slurs the Left can muster.
If a Law Falls in the Woods, and No One Is There to Enforce It, Is There Really a Law?
The Manchester City Council did the right thing on masks, sorta, after dumping the original proposal that would have mandated full-time mask-wearing in Manchester, all buildings, inside and outside.
Blogline of the Day – “It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society!”
Steve, in a post titled, “A Culture So Poisoned That They Can’t Help but Do Wrong,” where he talked about emergent college ethos to SILENCE anyone that brings up ideas or speech to which they disagree and proceeded to bring that analogy to the now censorious Social Media Big Tech firms.
Progressives Want Us to Be More Like Europe – “EU Coronavirus Cases Twice As Bad As US”
A lot of us just want to be left alone but Progressives refuse to do so. As reported before, they keep yammering that we need to be more like Europe. Especially in terms of WuFlu where lockdowns and mask mandates have been almost universal.
Data Point – WuFlu survival rates by age groups
Covid’s Risks My always wise friend and sometime co-author Lyle Albaugh has from the start understood that Covid, while certainly no nothingburger, is not remotely close to being the extraordinary monster that it has become in the popular mind. And so he’s having the following information printed on business-card-sized notices: COVID-19 INFECTION SURVIVAL RATES (per CDC) Ages … Read more
Weekend at Biden’s Movie Trailer…
Heh! Sound familiar?
“All we have to do is get him elected and we can do whatever we want,”
Notable Quote: Nothing lasts forever – especially monopolies
Warning against “monopoly fatalism,” the Cato Institute’s Ryan Bourne says: Time was, the A&P grocery chain was the entrenched “Amazon of its day,” with almost 15,000 stores by 1935. Seen one recently? Between 1976 and 1978, the government worried that IBM might have a monopoly on the “office typewriter industry.” A November 2007 Forbes cover … Read more
BlogQuestion of the Day – Did the Democrats Really Know in Advance?
Is The Biden Scandal The Reason Democrats Pushed Voters To Cast Ballots Before Election Day?
No, but it is certainly true it is helping them right now given how late this Hunter/Joe Biden pay-to-play years-long quid-pro-Joe.
Always remember: Joe Biden is the best that the Democrats had to offer
Nothing else needs to be said…an exemplary demonstration of oratorical mastery. So now you know what Joe means, right? (H/T: Powerline)
The Perfect Trifecta for the Left: Progressive, Privilege, Projection
It’s always a talking point on the Left that, until ACB, any Republican is ALWAYS guilty of some sexual wrongdoing – and note that it is always the Democrats making the accusations. And that’s the game, isn’t it – ANY accusation by a Democrat HAS to be credible.
The Jury Trial: Guilty as Sin but the State Didn’t Make the Case Part 1
Old Joke: What do you call the doctor who was last in their class? “Doctor.” That works for lawyers, too – both of them were losers, in our minds. It was the State’s case to lose – and it did! The defense lawyer won only because the prosecutor lost.
Friday Open Thread – The Day is Done!
Conversation starter: So, what did you learn outside of GraniteGrok this week? As always, talk about what you want to or need to!

Palate Cleanser – More Tales From My Just Finished Jury Duty
Here’s something I forgot to mention in my earlier post about serving on the jury. A liberal lady who kept hectoring everyone who didn’t hold her view that the defendant was innocent, said,
Notable Quote – An unelected US Parliament?
As government has grown bigger in size, scope, and pretensions, it has become more attentive to small factions that do not claim to represent the will of the majority. The most that each faction claims is that a majority would favor what the faction favors if the majority were thinking clearly. Or that it knows … Read more
