Notable Quote – Buying Stuff but Using Someone Else’s Credit Card – And Then Say “See, We Did Something for You!”

June 14, 2022 Skip

Emphasis mine: Nothing so epitomizes contemporary liberalism as unfunded mandates, in which the federal government establishes programs and forces the states to pay for them. The very need to weigh benefits against costs – the essence of economics – is evaded by this irresponsible exercise of arrogance. It is like impulse buying and charging it to … Read more

Was it worth it to steal from an old man? The Blaze has the story but it’s a bit long and convoluted but here’s an abstract of it. Summary: they got greedy and paid for it bigly.

You had it correct, right from the start, US Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-WY). There are only two sexes – male and female. Him and Her. And you were right to state (reformatted, emphasis mine):

Skip’s Sauntering Snippets-#13-Biden: Affirm Transgenders in School or Poor Kids Get No Lunch

June 12, 2022 Skip

Or, Biden’s willing to let poor kids go hungry to force transgender affirmation on schools. Talk about strings attached! The US Department of Agriculture just mandated that if a school wishes to receive Federal money meant for school lunches for poor and low-income students, those schools MUST implement all of the Biden Administration’s “anti-discrimination” policies concerning LGBTQ, especially those experiencing gender dysphoria (transgenderism).

GrokPoll Results – Who do you think could or should be the next NH Governor?

June 11, 2022 Skip

In case you didn’t go back and check the poll results.. Well, I think that GraniteGrok and our readers are probably in that mix of “ultra-anti-government right” that Sununu mentioned when he signed up to run, again, for NH Governor. I dryly note that when such people say such things, they (Sununu) NEVER state the … Read more

Sununu files for a fourth term for NH Governor

June 11, 2022 Skip

“I never thought about doing a fourth term early on, but given where we are with the pandemic, given that we’re going to have some fiscal challenges ahead, we’re heading into a potential recession,” Sununu said. “We need good financial management. We’re doing great stuff on mental health. We’ve got to see those investments through.” … Read more

Data Point – Timely: Poll Says Younger Male Democrats More Willing to Assassinate Politicians

And the Left is ALWAYS stating that all Domestic Terrorism is committed by those on the Right?

Skip’s Sauntering Snippets #10- This summer – Brownouts? Blackouts? Why and by whom?

Yes, I’m still doing these out of order…sigh…either I will catch up to myself or I’ll be praying to God to slow the entire world down. Guess which one has any likelihood of happening?

He’s Not Wrong, You Know: Ian Freeman

Let’s be clear from the outset: while I can be friendly with Ian, I hate his stances.

GrokGauntlet – It Is Time! And Lots of People to Grill

June 7, 2022 Skip

And this is not just for Groksters and candidates this time around – readers, you have your role to play as well!

In our GrokGauntlets, we DON’T ask the same types of questions that other media journalists ask in their roundtable with candidates. We are Conservatarian political activists, first, that have built up a large mouthpiece in GraniteGrok – and our questions should, quite well, align with our readerships’ political viewpoints that generally do NOT align with most mainstream media. We want to figure out who you are, what you stand for, and how you view politics, how well you are grounded, and get a sense of what you’d do if you win both the Primary and General Elections.

Green Beret PAC – We Choose, among Others, One of Us – Don Bolduc

June 6, 2022June 5, 2022 Skip

I am constantly surfing the ‘Net. FAR too much for me to put up and, I must admit, I spend too much time surfing. Yes, it is part of this hobby/obsession that I’d be on top of a LOT of things but it does take time. But it does payoff and I think this time, given we are now seeing the intensification of the political campaigns, it did. From a story at MSN (who was reporting what Fox News had first) (reformatted, emphasis mine): Green Beret PAC and an announcement concerning Don Bolduc.

Yes, They (Transgender Militants/Evangelists) Are Grooming Our Kids in Kindergarten

June 5, 2022 Skip

They know no boundaries or limitations on what they believe they can do to our young ones. We’ve taught our kids to respect, sometimes revere, their teachers – and these sexual militants know it and are taking advantage of it. Once caught, they don’t take the blame for what they’ve done, they explode with anger and fury that WE say “no more”.
