From one Republican to another at a Republican event – and Larry Hogan (rumored to have looked in a mirror and said to his image “YOU could be President!“): “I didn’t know you were going to have Lockdown Larry when I bought a ticket to RINOfest. Good job finding the ONLY Republican governor in the … Read more
Very interesting, what a little birdie whispered in my ear… True to his word, newly chosen NH GOP Chair Chris Ager did what he said he would do – get a vote as to his replacement (he’s not going to hold both the Chair and RNC Committeeman positions – setting an example that should be … Read more
Like almost all developed nations, America’s fertility rate has gone below “replacement” which is 2.1 births/woman (and NO, it’s not “birthing people” or “people who give birth” or “people with uteruses”). Lots of theories have been put forward with one example being all of the manmade chemicals interfering with hormonal processes. Another is that as … Read more
…his email has now been posted up on GraniteGrok. as it wasn’t clear that it had been posted already (I left a voice mail for Mike asking him as we generally put up hate mail sent in so our readers can chortle over it and make sport of them.
Well, I thought that the posts I put up over the past few days made some points and let our readership why they didn’t see any live reporting from the NHGOP annual meeting or afterward. I figured that was that – that event was over. Then I got a surprise call.
Commenter Mike Remski left a humorous comment on my “I’m Agreeing With NH Senator Cindy Rosenwald (D-Nashua)?? Why, Yes I Am” post concerning personal privacy vs the State trying to hoover up data on Moms that had just given birth. Had nothing directly to do with the post’s topic – except for “other questions” that … Read more
The thought that immediately came to mind was “When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. When the government fears the people, there is liberty.” Yet, here we are where The People are starting to believe that Government is the largest problem in their lives. In a new survey conducted in January, Americans said … Read more
Instapundit had these tweets from Michael Shellenberger (not in his Twitter feed anymore) on information from Pew Research on how US Journalists see their jobs vs. how the Public see how they SHOULD be doing it.
Again, from the same post from TH: Are British Conservatives Really Committed to Climate Action? Note the nuance of the structure of the post title – can we TRUST Conservatives? Do they really accept Climate Change – and are willing to use Government (in this case, the new and then quickly former Prime Minister Liz … Read more
While Treehugger is still alive, barely, it isn’t the harder hitting / deeper posts of the past. Thus, I’m spending far less time there and I’m just going to put up the last comment threads from some of the posts I thought were worth keeping. This set is both timeless, in the past, and kinda … Read more
Passing this legislation in Florida would mean that over half the US states hew to the second amendment’s restriction on government. As in, “the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”
Instead of themselves. We’ve written in the past that Paypal, because of our writing, restricted the use of our own money for six months. We could look at it, and run reports against account activity, but no money could be added in at all (either by you folks, our sponsors, or even ourselves) or expended. … Read more
You can call it “The hubris of high office”, the “Insolence of a long-term office holder”, or “Progressives on Parade”. Or all three at once but these two short paragraphs show that these folks have no interest in governing, they believe that you are ruled by them. And they have no problem in letting you … Read more
Again, if you believe that our Constitution is our most foundational Law (and our Social Contract – see what I did there SJWs?), this is actually needed. Landrigan has the story.
What is WRONG with the Left in trying to excuse any of their tax increases by simply stating “it’s for the common good” and “what’s fair”? And we go “How MUCH is fair?”. And we never get an answer – well, except for one person.
It seems that by publishing that first post on “NH GOP Annual Meeting Observations”, Pandora’s Box got opened – and keeps getting wider: Hi Skip I cannot agree more, with your comments on Maya Harvey’s role in choosing the press outlets covering the annual NH GOP mtg on Saturday. I sat in the front row … Read more
It’ll Cost You $95 to Hear Bernie Sanders Tell You Why Capitalism is Bad
Yeah, right. This is the guy that has always advocated for Government to be bigger and more intrusive, has said that if he had the power, he’d get rid of all charities (Government should do EVERYTHING), and honeymooned in Moscow.
I’m a bit late on this but since I went to the meeting, I figured I’d post the bits that I was interested in: Town Beach Regulation (beach pass policy “returned” back to be residents (+ their guests) and not STR (Short Term Rentals like AirBnB, VRBO, et al, and hotels. The town culvert failure … Read more
Like before, another submitter has asked to be anonymous – which is perfectly fine by me. And yes, some light editing by me but not in changing the message. Emphasis mine -Skip Hi Skip, I saw your GG piece about being denied entry into the GOP meeting. FYI, I was a State Committee Member so … Read more
