As many have been saying, people are on the move in America. Changing addresses, voting with their feet. And it is clear who the winners are, and the losers.

I Started to Say the Same Thing about Government Workers When I Became a Budget Committee Member
When I found out how my town’s government works (town, school district), I flat out said that it was unfair. Eyes bugged out and those looks of contempt were clearly aimed at me.
Men Are Getting Vasectomies to Protest Texas Abortion Law?
OK, I’ll go there: this is just nuts! Men Getting Vasectomies to Protest Texas Abortion Law. What?
Soups! Yeah, I Do Soups as a Regular Part of My Diet.
Yes, this is one of those posts that really has nothing to do with what we normally do here at GraniteGrok – but didn’t think it fit as a “Palate Cleanser” post either. So, here goes.
Palate Cleanser – Oh, I only WISH this had happened two days ago!
Seriously, it is clear that our society is lacking in real knowledge of how things could operate in America (Civics, Representative Republic) and the why of our country (History, founding Political Philosophy).
School District Finds Another Way to Lie to Parents
The Left has taken control of our schools. All over the nation, including in my town, School Boards are giving themselves the power to lie to Parents with respect to whether or not their child has gone “Trans” in school.
Promoted from the Comments – Biased against Parents
Ann Marie’s post “Teachers Who Sexualize Children in New Hampshire Schools,” which talked about how teachers are sexualizing their students, had a comment by BMW111 that sums up the feeling by many of we Parents and the state of Government Education:
Isn’t This Discrimination against Folks Coming Here Legally?
How stupid is this? “Biden requires stricter COVID testing of legal travelers even as illegal immigrants have gotten a pass.” So, any legal visitor from another country (in this case, anyone flying or “boating” to this country) has to observe more stringent regulations because of WuFlu / COVID than others.
Why Is Glad’s Chris Erchull So Interested in My Lawsuit against the Gilford School Board?
Last Tuesday was the latest hearing on my Policy JBAB lawsuit against the Gilford School Board. This is their implementation, via the NH School Board Association, of what was SB263 which made “gender identity” yet another Protected Class like religion, race, national origin (and the like) with respect to discrimination.
Data Point – Let’s Go Brandon! Illegal alien weekly arrests at US Southern Border
Already here! New records weekly! US Federal Government Ambassadors to NH Jeanne Shaheen, Maggie Hassan, Annie Kuster and Chris Pappas are just GREAT over this! They are all in on “replacing” us as voters with people who have no idea what our American values and philosophies are. They just know that when these illegal aliens … Read more
Prager U – Howard Zinn and the book that poisoned a generation
We’ve been mentioning Howard Zinn, who was a BU professor, that wrote the book, “A Peoples History of the United States”, that is the subject of the video below. It is the classic example of “how to make America hate itself”. And when you turn people against their own country, its history, its norms, you … Read more
Notable Quote – We’ve gone the wrong direction; REALLY wrong!
Somewhere along the way we lost our conviction that the best government was self-government. In our enthusiasm for turning over every social problem to the administrative bureaucracy for solution, we forgot that democracy is based on the maxim that the solution of the problem of social life is the business of the people themselves. Neither … Read more
Hey, Stupnagel Laconia School Board Chair Aaron Hayward – IT’S NOW A PUBLIC DOCUMENT!!!
So this nitwit Bully of a School Board member thinks that he can get away with threatening another sitting School Board member – with NO PROOF at all?
Blogline of the Day: They Really Are Good at Being Bullies – Just Ask David Ryan
The Trans Movement Only Survives by Bullying. “The fear of being dubbed a bigot and a transphobe compels many to perpetuate the insane notion that people can change genders. Only bullying is causing transgender ideology to be forced into the mainstream.”
Even Republicans Think We’re Imbeciles and Incapable of Self-Care: The COVID
I recently got the following from a NH Republican House Legislator (who asked for anonymity) lamenting our “political elite” on both sides of the aisle. You know, like NH State Rep Kris Roberts (D): “Government has to protect us from our own stupidity.” However, this is about the Republicans.
12 Days of Boosters
Hey, it’s still Christmas but given the yammering in our faces all the time of “wear a mask,” “get vaxxed,” get vaxxed AND wear a mask,” get your booster”….this, I think encapsulates all of our frustrations and the inanity that our “betters” are subjecting us to almost on an hourly basis.
Not Being a Scrooge, we’re (Probably) taking Christmas Easy – Posting Could be Light (or, maybe not!)
It’s Christmas – Family, Fun, Reverence, Joy, and Wonderment. A time for Faith, Reflection, and Fellowship.
Friday Open Thread – From GraniteGrok to our Readers: MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
You ALL are the Christmas Presents that we both want – and need. The fact that y’all think we write to your tastes gives us the smiles. And hopefully, we can do it all again during all of next year. So with that in mind, let me start off YOUR THREAD with this – feeling a … Read more
JR Hoell and Family – GiveSendGo Status
Steve reminded us of this. Jim Kofalt reminded us of this. Andrew Manuse reminded us of this. Now I am as well.
Update II – John Irish
It has been a couple of days since I heard back from John’s long-term girlfriend and a number of people have been emailing me about John so I dashed off a quick email asking her how both she and John were doing.
