Co-founder of GraniteGrok, my concern is around Individual Liberty and Freedom and how the Government is taking that away. As an evangelical Christian and Conservative with small "L" libertarian leanings, my fight is with Progressives forcing a collectivized, secular humanistic future upon us. As a TEA Party activist, citizen journalist, and pundit!, my goal is to use the New Media to advance the radical notions of America's Founders back into our culture.

The “Earl of Metzler” Seeks Another Realm

The Earl of Metzler trying to scurry back to Massachusetts. Please, Randolph School District, take this incompetent fool and get him out of New Hampshire. The Randolph School Committee recently shared the scheduled district visits for the three finalists in its search for a new superintendent of schools: Earl Metzler, Thea Stovell and Bruce Pontbriand. … Read more

The relativism of the Left

Not relevance, just relativism. I’m getting to be at the point where I’m at a loss for words. I do dryly note that while the “man of 2018” above competed in a beauty contest and lost, he did beat out 20 actual women in the final rankings. Imagine being one of those ladies, trying one’s hardest, … Read more

Road Show – GraniteGrok at the NH GOP Convention

First road show event for GraniteGrok of the new year – and hoping all the new gear will help us to bring a lot of livestreaming of political yakking and coverage of what’s going on in the auditorium.  We can’t guarantee sparks and fireworks like there’s been in years past but hey, who knows what … Read more

Well, Nelle believes a Right is only when she says it is one

Commenter Nelle left some words for NH House Rep Jeanine Notter’s Op-Ed “Democrats removed a Constitutional Right from the NH House – what will they do to you?” Apparently, Nelle is in full agreement with what the Democrats have done – made a Right subject to the Collective and when Governments says when it is a … Read more

Data Point – Americans believe illegal immigration is a serious problem

Reformatted, emphasis mine: A new poll reveals that very few Americans say that illegal immigration is not a problem.  An Economist/YouGov …poll suggests that public worry is pronounced — almost two thirds says illegal immigration is a serious problem, with some predictable partisan divides: 40 percent of Americans overall say and agree that illegal immigration in … Read more

Science “Unsettled” – Pot contributes to schizophrenia?

With large studies in peer-reviewed journals showing that marijuana increases the risk of psychosis and schizophrenia, the scientific literature around the drug is far more negative than it was 20 years ago. Comparing two major reports from the National Academy of Medicine, the nonprofit group that advises the federal government on health and medicine, makes … Read more

It isn’t often that Government gets rid of a tax – Celebrate it!

Especially when it is on something we use everyday (reformatted, emphasis mine): Consumption tax axed With the new year came a little-noticed state tax repeal. It’s the electricity consumption tax, a charge on everyone’s electricity bill created back in 1978 after construction started on the Seabrook nuclear power plant…Lawmakers decided to make this tax go away … Read more

NH House Democrats: EVERY House Rep is Guilty before being Proven Innocent

Turning American jurisprudence on its head we have another case, along with the gun ban, that shows how the Democrats don’t trust anyone – including themselves. Mandatory Harassment Awareness Training. More like Collective Guilt. The vast majority of the #MeToo violators have been Democrats. Go ahead and show me 5 Conservatives in Hollywood, journalism, or … Read more

Sherry Frost – unveiling more than she thought

Such is the keen intellect of Democrat Rep. Sherry Frost. In one tweet she unmasks the left’s flawed argument for civilian disarmament. The fantasy about good guys with guns is hers, but they’ll disarm you anyway. And if you complain they’ll take to Twitter to feed tripe to their liberal followers who want citizen-victims dependent on a … Read more

Notable Quote – Victor Davis Hanson

Students now leave campus largely prepped by their professors to embrace a predictable menu: the glories of larger government, income redistribution, greater entitlements, radical environmentalism, abortion, multiculturalism, suspicion of traditional religion, and antipathy to the international role of the United States in the past and present. -Prof. Victor Davis Hanson (Indoctrination, not education) And Alexandria Ocasio-Ortez … Read more

Stalin – #2 undermine America’s morality

Having written my post that explored Communist Joe Stalin’s words as a riff on Steve’s post, I just stared when I saw this over at Instapundit: Morality?  As the Progressives increasing decide that subject after subject, issue after issue, that there should be “No Stigma” – what traditional social mores are left that keep that … Read more

They just CAN’T leave ANYone alone, can they?

UPDATE/BUMPED: In trying to find something else in our archives, I came across this from 2016-04-24.  That image is still as valid today as then and especially in light of my DISQUS Doodlings as well as on anything we report or opine on what the Left does.  They are the Borg and they will not stop in any way possible to assimilate the rest of us.  That is who they are. That is not what the rest of us aspire to be.  Just freaking leave the rest of us alone and stop using the force of Government to do otherwise.

*****

I am part of the Just Leave Me Alone Coalition – but the Left CANNOT stand anyone being outside of their notion of Collectivism.  It echos the mantra of Fascism as defined in Mussolini’s Italy in the 1930s/1940s: According to Benito Mussolini, this system politicizes everything spiritual and human: “Everything within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state.”  Liberals / Democrats / Progressives in the US are rapidly walking towards this faster and faster:

Conservatives vs ProgressivesAt the Democrat Convention: “Government is the only thing we all belong to“; another is  Government is the thing we all do together“.  Remember Hillary’s “It takes a Village”?  Everything is couched in terms of GroupThink and “everyone all in” or “we’re all in this together”.  Socialism (except, of course, you are the one at the top, the Primo Apparatchik).

It is ALWAYS the group we, the collective group, as if they believe we all are in this together.  But we’re not – but they insist and do every thing they can to make it so – there is NO freedom allowable to dissent.  By this yet additional datum, we see that they hate the US Constitution (re: free association held in the First Amendment):
