WDLNH “Hold the Line” Fifth Annual Gun Rally – Safety Check

You certainly wouldn’t hear these words at a Granite State Progress or Moms Demand Action rally – certainly not!  Even at the mention of the word, or a pencil drawing of said inanimate object, they’d quiver themselves into a heap like the Wicked Witch of the West (water not included or necessary). They believe that … Read more

WDLNH ‘Hold the Line” Fifth Annual Gun Rally – “the Family”

It has become a tradition – at the end of the gun rallies, first starting with the ones held on 2/23 (shush, the anti-Constitutionalists mostly won’t get the joke) and now under the WDLNH banner), the ending “talk” is all of the participants and attendees assembling on the State House steps for a “family” picture.  … Read more

On Tuesday I went down to Concord to testify on behalf of passing HB576, my “No means No” when Budget Committee use their fiscal policy setting Powers to tell Selectmen and School Boards that they don’t approve of those “purposes”.  I thought that I had prepared well, spoke well (I did ask some of the … Read more

Green New Deal - Socialism wrapped up in Environmentalism

The Green New Deal – cartoon style (Part 1 of 6)

Just found this over at Powerline – quite cute and quite to the point.  The Green New Deal is nothing more than a Eco-Socialists nocturnal emission.  It has nothing to do with “greenness”, nothing about “saving the Earth”. Instead, it is all about money and all about control.  Here’s a series that even Democrats should … Read more
