June 19, 2025 Hal Shurtleff

My late friend and mentor, Sam Blumenfeld, once remarked that the government school system is a “sick, obsolete dinosaur being propped up by powerful lobbyists like the National Education Association and government officials.” The truth of that statement was on full display recently at the Wolfeboro Library.

Debating a Liberal Is as Futile as Putting Talcum Powder on a Hog-but I Sometimes Still Do It

March 12, 2025March 11, 2025 Hal Shurtleff

While I agree with the late Tom Anderson, who said with a distinct Southern drawl, “Debating a liberal is as futile as putting talcum powder on a hog,” I occasionally do so. Not that I think that my reason and logic will change the mind of a liberal, but for others who may be reading or listening. … Read more

February 20, 2025 Hal Shurtleff

Back in the mid-1980s, while a mail handler working for the United States Postal Service at what was called the South Postal Annex, I had a conversation with a White liberal co-worker. I was trying to “Red Pill” him” by loaning him a book, “Hijacked,” the Anthony Bryant Story. Mr. Bryant was a Black Panther … Read more

Charlie Kirk is Wrong on Jimmy Carter

January 3, 2025 Hal Shurtleff

Charlie Kirk recently praised the late Jimmy Carter. In a recent post, he wrote: “Jimmy Carter represents a type of Democrat that no longer exists. Christian, loving husband, and a true patriot.

October 28, 2024 Hal Shurtleff

H. L. Menchen said, “Elections are nothing more than auctions for future stolen goods.” That maxim rings true when one looks at the promises that a particular candidate running for president of the United States has made. The candidate promises first-time homeowners a cool $25 grand. When this candidate wasn’t polling too high among Black … Read more

November 12, 2024August 10, 2024 Hal Shurtleff

For the first time ever, foreign countries are recommending that their citizens should no longer travel to the usually gentle and peaceable United Kingdom on the ground that the growing frequency of violent riots has made us a dangerous destination.
