It is our teachers and public education, writ large, that have failed the country; by not teaching Civics and History correctly or adequately. For not turning the barbarians-in-training into knowledgeable and invested Citizens. Instead, they have turned YOUR children against this nation and its history.

“Some rob you with a gun, while others rob you with a pen – We ain’t paying crap.”
Civil Disobedience – it’s always a “thing” with the Left. Don’t like something, especially when a Republican is in charge? Demonstrate, protest, break the law – usually for some type of Left-wing mantra that will leave the rest of us poorer, take freedoms away, or lower our standard of living.
Notable Quote – JFK was a RACIST!!!! Black LIVELIHOODS Matter
…One of the most tragic regulations ever imposed on black people in the United States in the 20th century was the federal minimum wage, which Franklin D. Roosevelt’s administration introduced in 1938. Why tragic? Because a requirement that an employer pay a minimum wage makes it less likely that he will hire an unskilled or … Read more
Tom Thompson, what’s the difference between “bailouts” for forestry and “bailouts” for Government schools?
Alternate Title: So, what’s the difference between “bailouts” for forestry and “bailouts” for Government schools? None – they both raise taxes and benefit only a few.
FB Doodlings – Treehugger wants to make the Dodge Durango Hellcat illegal
Which is par for the course as Lloyd hates all “fossil fuel” cars and barely tolerates electric ones. Being a “sustainability” professor, he does believe in stuffing us all into “cities” with “walkable” neighborhoods where you would work, shop, and play. Gotta move around? Walk it or bike it – or Public transportation. Small apartments … Read more
Data Point – NH Businesses will NOT see a tax hike this year; NH Democrats reluctantly stop salivating
The NH Business Profit Tax (“If you made money, we demand some vigorish” tax) and the NH Business Enterprise Tax (“Simply because you want to do business in NH” tax) will no longer be automatically heading upward.
THIS SHOULD SCARE THE CRAP out of Parents with Elementary Age Kids in Public Schools
I’ve been putting up “Man in the street” interviews ever since our humble beginnings. And I am never surprised by how illiterate young people are about our history and how the Government (which DEPENDS on citizens knowing its form) works.
Democrat City Councilor Decides that Laws are for the Little People
Progressives (and those with something to hide) have got to “Progress.” In this case, Zandra Rice-Hawkins, City Councilor in Concord, and the Exec. Director of the out-of-state-funded Granite State Progress (who seeks to “fundamentally transform” New Hampshire) decided that Laws are for the little people.
Do you Conservatives know who Socialist Antonio Gramsci was? You ought to.
“While everyone was distracted by Saul Alinsky, it turns out the real action was Antonio Gramsci.”
FB Doodlings – Black Lives Matter Event – Gilford, New Hampshire – Part 4 Whose Privilege is it?
Yeah, the Left is ALL about Privilege? They’re always asking about it – and you are their target. Well, I’ve gotten a bit tired of that bit of Moral Superiority (can’t you tell) and (again), I’ve gotten to the age where I no longer suffer self-assured incompetents (e.g., fools) much anymore. Like this guy concerning … Read more
FB Doodlings – Black Lives Matter Event – Gilford, New Hampshire – Part 3 You WILL be made to care
You know, this is going to be SO revealing of how the folks, preponderance being Liberals and Progressives think in Gilford concerning the Black Lives Matter movement. I’ve already video’d some of the leaders’ thoughts and now it is time to figure out what Gilford residents are thinking and speaking. Or demanding. I’m sure that … Read more
Notable Quote – from Regina Barnes
Quote of the weekend, thanks to a dear friend for sharing some #wordtruth “If you cancel your 4th of July plans because the government is forcing you to, then you are missing the whole point of Independence Day“ –Regina Barnes (candidate, NH State Senate District 24)
Notable Quote – Democrats Now Stand For The Exact Opposite Of The Declaration Of Independence
When the elected delegates went off to the Continental Congress to represent the people of the 13 colonies, and eventually to sign the Declaration of Independence, everyone in America was a “subject.” However, alive in the hearts of those “subjects” who were delegates to the Continental Congress was a unique vision; a vision of life … Read more
Notable Quote – Harlan Hill
What America is going through right now is not merely another, more intense round of “cancel culture.” We’re now in the midst of a full-force, totalitarian remolding of our society, one that seeks to place the petty resentments of an outraged minority of leftist activists above everything else in American life. Because of their willingness … Read more
Blogline of The Day – so “included” is now “segregated”?
Students demand segregated ‘Black House’ so they can ‘feel included.’ …The identity of all but two students who helped compose the letter was intentionally withheld “to protect the anonymity of Black students who may not feel comfortable with their name attached to a stated demand.” The letter states the list of demands “has been in … Read more
“End the Panic Porn” – some good news about the Wu Flu
That first part of the title comes at the end of this post at PJ Media about what most of the public may not know because not much of it is coming out in the MSM. I’ve known about most of them but this post encapsulates most of the information that the evening news just … Read more
A taste of Saul Alinsky from our commenters – heh!
Our commenters can be rather amusing at times even if their comments have a bit of a barb to them. This is sort of like the meme I saw on Facebook a while ago (no, I can’t find it) going along the lines of: We HAVE to put in Voter ID – We can’t allow … Read more
Quick Thought – it means that the US has returned to the Rule of Kings
This caught my eye: The Supreme Court held today that President Obama’s DACA program is clearly illegal. That should have been the end of the inquiry. If a president can’t undo the illegal acts of his predecessor, that can lead only to ever-expanding executive power.https://t.co/yCpa4mUdRe — Mike Lee (@SenMikeLee) June 18, 2020 Let me repeat … Read more
Notable Quote – Dan Dickneite
Work and reward for work is essential to the human spirit. There is nothing that can replace the satisfaction and pride felt by someone who has done a good job, or the accolades that come from observers of a job well done, regardless of the task at hand. -Dan Dickneite (on Facebook)
FB Doodlings – Black Lives Matter Event – Gilford, New Hampshire – Part 2
As I noted, Black Lives Matter has come to my hamlet and it is literally tearing the town into three parts: Those that see it at the surface level as being goodness Those that have done a lot more research into what BLM, what it really stands for, and its organization And a third part … Read more
