Jan Schmidt – if it wasn’t for double standards towards women…

This saga never seems to end – I had put up a screenshot of where Nashua’s Jan Schmidt (and NH State Rep as well as Nashua Alderman) is attempting to, true to Democrat identity politics, turn herself into a victim.  It really is what they do (standard M.O.?) – from the Democrat Prez Wannabees to … Read more

Notable Quote – Gerrit Wormhoudt

Notable Quote – Steven Pinker

The doctrine of sustainability assumes that current rates of use of a resource may be extrapolated into the future until it rams into a ceiling.
