Before beginning, this needs to be said: the reasons Hamas has control of Palestinian areas are that it has terrorized Palestinians into voting for it in “fair elections,” and it has been “educating” children into a deep hatred of Israel from the time they were born.

How To Fix the “Student Loan” Problem
One only needs to check the news occasionally to know that there is at least a half-trillion dollars of noncollectable student loan debt out there. Those loans, a huge percentage of them being owed to non-government entities, may never be fully repaid.
Yes, We NEED to Teach Cursive Writing
There’s something at stake in education that most people are ignoring. Schools are drifting away (sometimes running away) from teaching cursive writing. All sorts of excuses have been given: “It’s old.” “It’s hard to teach.” “We don’t need it any more.”
Welcome to (blue) New Hampshire
So, the 2022 elections are over, and NH decided that it had no intention of bringing about a change in political direction in Washington, DC.
When Life Imitates Art
I’m not one to compare a movie to life, but I remember one movie that seemed to foreshadow what we’re seeing today. The story is about a man who is accused of a crime without knowing what crime he has been accused of committing.
Is Canada’s Government Still Legitimate?
In all the Canadian government’s furor over the truck driver protest, one event is missing: any reports of clear-cut violence committed by the truck drivers or their supporters. I have been scouring American, Canadian, and international news sites to find a verified report – any report – of a Canadian truck driver who has physically attacked anyone else.
Truck Drivers vs. the “New World Order” – NWO Loses Big-Time
As we watch Canadian truck drivers shut down fully 25% of cross-border trade because they oppose vax mandates, and as we watch the rumblings of a possible similar action here in the United States, we see the long-expected result of the “elite” attempt to bring about a “New World Order.”
Repeal the 17th Amendment
The Constitution describes 3 branches of the federal government: the Legislative, Executive, and Judicial. It also originally indicated that the rules to elect Senators and Representatives “… shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof” (emphasis mine) and that Senators were elected by each State’s Legislature.
WV vs Bette Midler
Just a comment regarding Bette Midler’s comments about West Virginia: In 1997, Polaroid rolled out a Driver License/ID system that implemented the first facial image recognition system in any state-level program in the United States. I was the tech lead/manager on the program, so I know we did it.
Why Are We Still Counting COVID “Cases”?
Just a quick thought: if college football stadiums filled with un-vaccinated people have not been proven to be super-spreader events, why not? What about inside sports venues where people don’t wear masks?
Voting is a Citizen’s Duty – DO YOUR DUTY!!!
Nashua calls itself the “Gate City.” One thing about gates: they allow admission and they also enforce exclusion. Looking at the current political environment in Nashua, the key seems to be the enforcement of exclusion – but in this case, exclusion of residents – and especially parents – from the political process.
“But it’s Only a Vaccine…”
The year is 2021. The place is the United States of America. If you aren’t immunized, you may be shunned or forced out of your job, forbidden to socialize in public, banned from restaurants or other venues, and possibly be restricted from receiving emergency medical care at a hospital.
Nashua Public Servants… are our Masters?
Elections in Nashua are held every year. In “even” years, candidates for federal office are on the ballot. In “odd” years, candidates for local and state offices are on the ballot. But because local elections don’t generate the excitement and (sometimes) national coverage of elections for federal offices, Nashua residents rarely show up at the polls.
Nashua Isn’t Nashua Anymore
I moved into Nashua in 1982 the week after I was honorably discharged from the US Navy. It was still a relatively small “city” just north of the Massachusetts border. Main Street had a movie theater, there were practice soccer fields on Amherst Street, and the only mall was just off Exit 6.
Ending UnConstitutional Actions
I write in response to another article on the Grok that discussed the past and present failures of McConnell, McCarthy, and the rest of the GOPe’s failure to do anything about Benghazi, “Big Tech,” or (most likely) Afghanistan.
COVID “Variants” and an Unchanging Vaccine
The CDC, FDA, and multiple pharma companies raced toward the development of a new class of Covid-19 vaccines in 2020 in the hope of reducing the spread of the virus.
Biden Has Become Nixon
I never want to hear another word from any Democrat, liberal, or progressive about how evil Nixon was. Biden allowed (supported?) corruption of the political process when he was vice president. As president, he has done his utmost best to reverse economic and foreign policies that made the US safer and more prosperous.
They Don’t Want a Republic. They Want a King.
Let’s face it: the “process” is now totally corrupt. Members of Congress, both in the House of Representatives and the Senate, are now considering a bill to pay for “infrastructure.”
It Couldn’t Happen Here… Right?
“Stars on clothing. It’s coming. The vaccinated get into restaurants, bars, concerts, supermarkets, planes, and trains. They keep their jobs. The rest of us are marked as “subhuman” for life. That’s the star. That’s 1938.”
