I’m quite sure that every Party has their annual awards given out and in the case of the NH GOP, they are for the volunteers that do the grunt work necessary to make the Party functional. The Norris Cotton awards are given out at the County level – was glad to see that Grokster Chris … Read more
Although not contiguous in time during the meeting, part of the requirement is for the officials (Secretary, Treasurer, the Chair and VChair, et al) to give their reports of what has happened this past year. Money in the bank is up and a lot of field work is being done. A LOT of it! Anyways, … Read more
I’m still waiting for Wendy’s to roll out their “Where’s the BEEF” campaign again… Seriously – while Burger King does sell chicken sandwiches and other stuff, they are a BURGER joint. Burgers – that’s their bread and butter (tee-hee!). Burgers – a bun, condiments – and BEEF! That’s a hamburger and not a “plant sandwich”. … Read more
Surprise! Not everyone is willing to grovel and appease aggressors. Those bullies need something to remind them that:
These kinds of meetings break down like this: Intro Speeches / Reports from NH GOP leadership positions Speeches from candidates (Federal, State wide) NH GOP elected official races Bylines / Platform fights Here are more of the NH GOP “notables”: NH State Senate Minority Leader Chuck Morse and NH House Republican Leader Dick Hinch: We’ll … Read more
Yesterday was the 2020 Annual NH GOP Annual Meeting and certainly GraniteGrok was representing: I was there “in uniform” but Jim Kofault, Norm Silber, and Judy Aron were present. One thing was for sure – there were going to be some lively debating going on and I wasn’t talking about the NH GOP Committeeman race … Read more
A defense of the true meaning of “Life Free or Die”. I was surprised to see that the Keene Sentinel ran a rather even handed piece on a rather new ‘Grok Friend of ours (he even asked us to come and speak to the Dublin Area GOP!), Leo Plante. It’s tough out there in that … Read more
I dunno if this was given a “green light” by someone or if this was just Tammy Simmons (past Chair of the Manchester Republican Committee) shoving this out there in order to “guilt” people into voting for Steve Duprey. Emphasis mine: From: Tammy Simmons <xxxxxxxx@gmail.com> Sent: Thursday, January 23, 2020 10:34 AM To: undisclosed-recipients: Subject: … Read more
New Impeachment Video ????: The Senate Exists for Moments Like This #HoldTheLine pic.twitter.com/k1Bif5M2JR — Senate Republicans (@NRSC) January 21, 2020 If one goes by the strict interpretation of “Impeachment”, it cannot start until a President starts his term. Yet, before Trump was even sworn in, the Democrats started the process and laying down their Narrative … Read more
From Bloomberg: U.S. consumer confidence advanced last week to the highest level in more than 19 years on increased optimism about the economy, personal finances and the buying climate. Bloomberg’s index of consumer comfort rose to 66 in the week ended Jan. 12, the best reading since October 2000, from 65.1, according to a report … Read more
Count this calorie, count that carbon unit – always in fear of doing the right thing. At least for weight loss, it can be a right thing IF you’re not obsessing over it. With the eco-Socialists, this obsession in calculating your carbon footprint is well past annoying (and well passed Annoying Nannyism as well). Don’t … Read more
I’ve been blogging about what has been going on in my home town that just put up the “Scott Dunn monument to Economic Illiteracy” and the Mandatory Recycling mandate in order to make “The Plan” work. You can’t use the new Recycle Center (“RC”), just built for the amount of $1.3 Million dollar, unless YOU … Read more
We see this just like the Platform fights – a stark difference to make and a question to be answered: who is the Party for? Is it for the perennial NH GOP Elites, or is it for the rank-and-file delegates, activists, and voters?
…it looks like Politicians, as an entire class, are being seen for how they act. Imagine that! Compared to Criminals who break laws. Actually, in a lot of cases, that sign is apt. We see elected officials all the time, on both sides of the aisle here in NH, break not only their actual oaths … Read more
This LA Law prof ( John Villasenor (UCLA)) “…It’s not that I don’t recognize the advantages of recording. For a student forced to miss class for a legitimate reason, such as illness, having access to a video can make it easier and more efficient to catch up. I also recognize that in large lecture-hall courses … Read more
Jack Wilson was the man that stood up when the murderer in his church killed two of the parishioners. Jack stopped him with one shot to the head. A Sheepdog, a hero. He, and the others that were armed that Sunday morning, were willing to lay down their lives to protect their flock. Yes, their flock.
Shades of Rush Limbaugh, all over again. Years ago, he tried to have his follows work a miracle for Hillary Clinton against Barack Obama in the primaries: Republicans to vote for her, where possible, in the Democrat primaries. Why do I bring this up?
Meghan Markel’s Dad on #Megxit: She’s ‘Turning Royal Family Into Walmart With a Crown.’ (H/T: Instapundit) UPDATE: Wow, just wow about the lack of irony: In hilarious self-own, Warren asks ‘How could the American people want someone who lies to them?’
I just don’t understand how Biden’s self-admission ON VIDEO of withholding $1 billion from Ukraine if the state prosecutor that was investigating his son (Hunter) wasn’t fired (“son of a b****, he got fired!”) just hasn’t gotten much play.
So, we now have another Transracial person in the news: “I’m not white Hispanic, I’m black!” Well, given that “white Hispanic” really only became a thing when the MSM decided.
