Kyle Tasker’s “Client” List
The existence of the Kyle Tasker client list is still the subject of much speculation. The NH AG, as reported by the Union Leader on May 18th, doesn’t know anything about a credible list.
“I don’t know where this thing about a list is coming from,” said Attorney General Joseph Foster. “I’ve heard rumors, but as far as keeping a black book, I’ve not heard that … I’ve never heard from any credible source that (Tasker) has a list.”

The 50 Worst “Yes-Men” In the New Hampshire House
c/o Spec Bowers
Spec just emailed out a list of the worst “Democrat-elected-Speaker-Jasper leadership-following” rubber-stamp (r)epublicans in the New Hampshire House, and we like to share.

Washington Redskins. It’s not just “not that big a deal” to Native Americans, most of them couldn’t care less. These findings show that the fight has wasted lots and lots of time, money, and especially attention. It’s a non-crisis, a made-for-media controversy that matters to very, very few people.

About that Title IX Thing…
Mario Loyola, writing at National Review, evaluates the Orwellian stylings of the Obama Transgender Bathroom ‘Dear Colleague Letter,’ but I thought this was the money quote. Naturally, the last thing anyone in Congress (or anywhere) thought in 1972 was that for purposes of federal law, students would get to decide what gender they feel like on … Read more
