The Pipedream of Senate Leadership by a Freshman Senator

A week or so ago at a rainy day gathering in Salem, New Hampshire, it was quite instructive to listen to the speeches of two declared candidates for the Republican nomination for US Senate, seeking to unseat Senator Jeanne Shaheen; as well as a non-speech by a then-undeclared candidate for the same office (who has … Read more

No Excuse Absentee Ballots = Increased Voter Fraud

Governor Sununu was serving the best interests of New Hampshire by vetoing the “no-excuse” absentee ballot law passed by the General Court on a mostly partisan (Democrat) basis. Absentee ballot fraud is endemic in our country, but never more so than in states with no-excuse absentee ballot laws. As a former resident of Florida for … Read more

The Government is here to help you with your Shower!

Did you ever stay at a hotel in which the room was very comfortable, the bed was superb, the flat panel TV was top of the line, the towels were generous and fluffy, and all was well with your world until you decided to take a shower? You turn on the shower and the flow … Read more

Kuster, Soros, Arafat & J Street- Birds of a Feather

Most of our “old sayings” usually have origins in fact and historical experience. Thus, we know that birds of a feather stick together. We also know that a person is judged by the company they keep. And the friend of my enemy is my enemy. When the US Congress recently considered resolutions condemning the BDS … Read more

Gun confiscation & Freedom- Some Thoughts

With apologies to the famous German Lutheran pastor Martin Niemöller, who wrote poignantly about the failure to speak out against the Nazis when there was still time to do so: First, they came for the assault weapons, and I did not speak out – Because I did not own any assault weapons. Then they came … Read more

Control of “Undesirable” Populations the RBG Way

Hypocrisy has no bounds. Most Americans who think of themselves as politically aware seem to view Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg of the Supreme Court of the United States as the embodiment of “progressive” or liberal thinking in the present era. Almost like a present-day Margaret Sanger. But one must digress briefly. Margaret Sanger was a … Read more

Death Penalty for Domestic Islamic Terrorists

The federal prosecutors have rightfully sought the death penalty in the Pittsburg synagogue shooting in which 11 people were killed, the deadliest attack on Jews in US history, notwithstanding statements from some rabbis from one of the more leftist denominations of Judaism. The classical statement of Jewish self-defense from the Talmud, the central text of … Read more

The Brennan Center: A Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing!

It would be my guess that not many people in New Hampshire have heard or know much about the Brennan Center organization whose representatives recently appeared in Concord to lobby our legislators into adopting a bill creating a so-called unelected “independent” redistricting commission for our state. Fortunately, Governor Sununu has vetoed that bill, leaving the … Read more

Mao No guns

The left’s ultimate goal is confiscation of our guns

As might be expected after the horrible mass murders in El Paso and Dayton, the hard-left Democrats are calling for bans on high-capacity magazines and so-called assault weapons. But let’s take a look at what that really means, with a look back to the not too distant past when we actually had such bans in … Read more

I’m from the Government and I’m here to help you!

Most of us have heard that very sad bad joke. Unfortunately, it is all too real in many aspects of our daily lives. A perfect example of this came up recently, courtesy of former President Obama, US Senator Elizabeth Warren, former US Senator Chris Dodd, and former US Representative Barney Frank- paragons of virtue all. … Read more

Whither Our Public Schools?

The Declaration of Independence: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” Deuteronomy 7: “  .  .  . you shall teach them diligently to your children and speak … Read more

Only got to vote once 550 x 402

Quick Thought on the recent election fraud case

Before and after serving for 2 years on the Election Law Committee of the NH House, I often heard from our friends on the left that there was no real need to attempt to tighten our flimsy election laws because there was actually no election fraud in New Hampshire.  So, I was very interested to … Read more

The Big Lie

For those too young to remember, the Big Lie is an expression for a propaganda technique coined by Adolf Hitler, when he dictated his 1925 book Mein Kampf, about the use of a lie so “colossal” that no one would believe that someone “could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously”. Well, times … Read more

The Death Penalty Does Deter!

Some of who are usually our more conservative/libertarian state house and senate members are once again trying to repeal New Hampshire’s very limited death penalty statute.   If they succeed again this time, the Governor should once again veto the repealing legislation. RSA 630:1 sets out the only circumstances that constitute “capital murder” that can be punished … Read more

Whither the Boy Scouts of America?

A major goal of the left and its fellow-travelling PC Police seems to be the demolition of most of the traditional pillars of American culture and family values.  The changes in the Boy Scouts of America, which used to be thought of as being like motherhood and apple pie, can serve as an excellent example … Read more

Religious Bigotry

Religious discrimination in NH

Anyone who thinks that anti-Catholic bias is only alive and well among the Democrats in the US Congress questioning prospective Supreme Court nominees needs to think again and look no further than our own beloved state of New Hampshire, which was originally settled in large part by French-Canadian Catholics migrating Southward. After the great Irish … Read more
