This is HILARIOUS! It seems that Berniece Van Der Berg, the Co-Founder – Vice President of Sales and Marketing for the Moonlight Meadery has a problem. She has brought us upon herself.

Data Point – Granite Stater’s Less likely to Take Out Loans to Get By During ‘Pandemic’
I didn’t expect to see this but it does bolster the idea that some folks in the Live Free or Die State are taking the idea of “Rugged Individualism-Self-Sufficiency” – of which being prepared is part of that ethos – fairly seriously.
Yeah, mailing in your votes is just SO secure….
Yeah, mailing in your votes is just SO secure. Ayup, no problem with any kind of fraud here – absolutely nothing can go wrong, right? Oopsies – Coronavirus Ballot Blues:
Notable Quote – Bjorn Lomberg
For decades, climate activists have exhorted people in the wealthy West to change their personal behavior to cut carbon emissions. We have been told to drive less, to stop flying and, in general, to reduce consumption—all in the name of saving the planet from ever higher temperatures.
And the Party of Government is?
The party of government is, of course, Democrats. The more, the merrier – and intrusive. It’s starting to reach that hackneyed level but the Democrat National Committee had it at their 2012 Convention:
Data Point – Economy surging
Reformatted: Retail sales skyrocketing by 18% in May as states began to reopen their economies. Economists projected that retail sales would increase 5.2% for June. Retail sales increased 7.5% in June, the U.S. Census Bureau reported on Thursday. retail and food services sales for June were $524.3 billion, which is not only a 7.5% increase … Read more
Is the United States “losing the war” Against the Coronavirus?
The perfidy of the American MSM. “Many media outlets have described the United States as “losing the war” against the coronavirus because of the number of cases keeps going up.” Are we? Losing the war?
I don’t Understand this Movement by American Indians to Erase Themselves
I really don’t “get” this Canceling subset of American Indians – Sidenote: no, I’m not going to use “Native Americans” for I am a native born American as well: second generation born on my Mom’s side, third generation on my Dad’s side (and for the curious, Swedish and Irish respectively but that’s my ancestry and … Read more
“Large public debts imply a redistribution between current generations and future ones who cannot vote”
Another line of argument against austerity is that public debt is not really a problem. This argument is especially popular now, given that interest rates are generally very low, so debt is not expensive.
BlogQuestion of the Day – with this overt display of racism, should CBS start lawyering up?
We are starting to become “life by race quotas” – no more will we have the traditional “hard work, grit, and entrepreneurial spirit” as the road to success in life. Sadly, the insanity that the Left has been brewing in the Socialist witches cauldron has spurted out from the colleges and into the rest of our lives.
Data Point – Gunfire; Gosh, I just can’t put my finger on just why the increase….
ShotSpotter has been tracking gunfire trends in response to the global pandemic followed by civil unrest in the US after the killing of George Floyd. The graph above shows gunfire per square mile per week across all ShotSpotter coverage areas in the US in the first half of 2020 and 2019. In 2020 gunfire appears … Read more
Data Point: A reminder: “we’ve run out of money”
We’ve run out of money. Well, not quite, but we are the brokest nation in the world’s history and the Government “smaht” people haven’t learned the lesson of that old Fram Oil commercial:
Without the COVID-19 Panic Democrats Cannot Easily Achieve…
Sundance over at The Conservative Treehouse has a good post about some of what is going on in the Democrat-led States that are seeing higher infection rates.
Blogline of the Day – Judge it to be true
It is easy to find the “man in the street” videos again (or, I’m just better at stumbling over them), especially those made by younger people asking (what should be rather easy questions) of their cohort. Easy being “at least in the ballpark.” Sadly,” easy” seems to really mean “unobtainable.”
Actors in Hollywood are no longer allowed to play “other” people?
Halle Berry recently had to recuse herself from playing a woman who thinks she’s a trans man because she is a normal woman. But she’s an actress. But she’s a woman. But the Left’s dogma says that would be oppressing gender dysphoric people by playing them.
They have no idea how special their First Amendment Right to Free Speech really is
It made me rather sad to watch this video. These young’uns not understanding the cost that is behind their Right to say what they want. I cringed when I heard how easily they’d be willing to give it up – emotion over reasoning:
Gun Sales: Thanks to BLM No One is Listening to the Civilian Disarmament Advocacy Groups
They pushed and pushed and SHOVED to make gun stores “non-essential” during the early part of the pandemic. But then the rush to purchase guns became so high that it looked like Obama was back and “selling guns” again.
LA Teachers Union: Can’t open schools unless charter schools shut down, police defunded, a wealth tax…
Who do these Union Teachers in LA think they are? The Medical industry, which feels like it can tell people when to stay home and when they go out? I’m sorry, like that old commercial, this isn’t how it works.
HB712 is not as “bi-partisan” as Democrat Dan Feltes Would Have you Believe.
HB712 is the Paid Family Medical Leave Act that is a Democrat agenda item. Another camel’s nose under the “Let’s Enlarge Government AGAIN!” tent. I’m glad to see that Gov. Sununu vetoed it. But this caught my eye in the Union Leader piece about it on Friday.
