There are no ‘Hooters’ In Dearbornistan

Hooters Restaurants do not have to hire male servers. Curves, the largest chain of workout centers for women in the world, does not have to cater to men. So why aren’t leftist heads exploding? Shouldn’t this be headline news 24/7/365 until these gender-biased injustices are undone?  These are clearly an assault on someone’s sexual orientation. … Read more

Perhaps the answer is fewer Democrats?

John Stossel Hobby Lobby’s owners were represented in court by a group called the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty. Becket’s director, Kristina Arriaga, says Hobby Lobby isn’t stingy or cruel: “The Green family pays twice the minimum wage, closes on Sundays, gives very generous benefits to their employees, and they did not object to 16 … Read more

From Whittaker Chambers’ Review of Atlas Shrugged

An excerpt from Whittaker Chambers 1957 review of  Atlas Shrugged.  Ouch. Atlas Shrugged can be called a novel only by devaluing the term. It is a massive tract for the times. Its story merely serves Miss Rand to get the customers inside the tent, and as a soapbox for delivering her Message. The Message is … Read more

ICYMI – Job Creation Tax Credit Was Not Expanded by Legislature

Back in February while researching this article I came across a bill in the New Hampshire Legislature to expand a tax credit that was due to be evaluated in 2015 and that my research suggested had failed to achieved any of its intended goals.

The Coös County job creation tax credit is on the top of the committee’s list for evaluation in 2015.  The credit is also part of a new piece of legislation that would expand the program into a second New Hampshire County.

Clinton Campaign “Racist” Right Out Of The Gate

This is…priceless.

(TWS) The second-time presidential candidate wants to “make even small-dollar donors feel like they are part of the inner circle.” Based on the campaign’s website, however, expectations for those “small-dollar donors” who speak Spanish are considerably lower than those for their English-speaking counterparts.

The main donation page for the site includes preset amount buttons for $5, $25, $50, $100, $500, $1,000 and the maximum for the primary election cycle, $2,700. However, the preset amounts for the Spanish language version of the donation page are significantly less: $3, $5, $10, $25, $50, $100 and $250. Both pages includes an “other” button where donors can fill in a different amount.

Tussle in Tuftonboro

tuftonboro

(Union Leader) At their meeting Monday night, Selectmen Chairman Dan Duffy made it known that selectmen will not accept public input at their meetings. He announced “the board’s new policy” as Budget Committee member Steve Brinser was trying to air a grievance about information that he felt was omitted from this year’s town report.
“For the time being, we have, as a group, decided to act because there are some people who are mudslingers, who are anti-anything in this town,” Duffy said on Tuesday.
