Crowdsourcing vs “Intellectuals” and Totalitarians

May 9, 2023 Skip

From single massive mainframe computers (e.g., IBM 360/370, Multics) to networks of “minicomputers” (e.g., Digital Equipment, Wang Labs, Honeywell) to hordes of standalone Personal Computers, and now tablets, smartphones, and “the Cloud,” compute power has gone from expensive and centralized to cheaper and distributed. No one that I know of has said that this has … Read more

Disarm the IRS, De-Militarize the Bureaucracy, and Dismantle the Standing Army

May 9, 2023 Op-Ed

“There are instruments so dangerous to the rights of the nation and which place them so totally at the mercy of their governors that those governors, whether legislative or executive, should be restrained from keeping such instruments on foot but in well-defined cases. Such an instrument is a standing army.”
-Thomas Jefferson, 1789

Porn in Schools Update: Six-Year-Old Girl Forced Under a Desk to Perform a Sex Act (While Another Student Records It)

May 9, 2023May 9, 2023 Steve MacDonald

Parents and taxpayers are fighting with local school districts to remove sexually explicit, age-inappropriate material from public schools. Why? Because some kids might get the idea that it is okay to force a 6-year-old girl to perform a sex act under a school desk while someone records it.

Rep. Kelley Potenza’s Statement Regarding Anne Edwards’ Judicial Nomination

May 9, 2023 Op-Ed

I commend Rep. Kelley Potenza on her statement regarding Ann Edwards’ judicial nomination. It’s time to rip the bandaid off New Hampshire’s Court Corruption and reveal the extremely ugly truth about what is going on.

Let’s Put Kamala In Charge Of AI…Brilliant

May 8, 2023 Ray Cardello

Kamala Harris has failed every task assigned to her as Vice President. Border policy, voting rights, abortion, and even water policy have all been placed in her in-basket, and she has yet to respond. Harris was an unpopular AG in California. Her Senate career was a “whatever is popular” approach, often contradicting her AG decisions. Her Presidential run was a failure. She was polarizing in debates, sparring with Gabbard and even calling Biden a racist and sex offender. Harsh words for her future running mate. She dropped out of the race before the first primary vote was cast. With her record, you know the only reason she is VP is color and gender. Her performance has been consistent in the second chair-consistently inadequate.

California’s Million Dollar Conundrum

May 8, 2023 Ray Cardello

California, The Golden State, symbolized the spirit and curiosity of America for decades. California was the American dream. California now exemplifies much of what is wrong with America, and how it is declining could be a harbinger of America’s future.

Equity Kills Excellence

May 8, 2023 Skip

Today America is under attack from within. Among the battles being fought is equity versus meritocracy. This battle is ravaging American institutions. Wherever we look, from the arts to higher education, corporate America, and the sciences, the battle is exacting a high cost.

“No” to Settlements in Nashua RTK Cases

May 8, 2023 Laurie Ortolano

Court Settlements in Nashua are done in bad faith and are unreasonable. They are a ploy to ring up legal bills and produce no records. A settlement is not an admission of guilt, so settling results in no real improvement in the process. (In Nashua, winning in Court has resulted in no real improvement, either.)

Little Demon

May 8, 2023 Op-Ed

Recently after purchasing bananas at the DW Highway Shaw’s in Merrimack, NH, I noticed a Disney label attached to the Dole sticker. The sticker sparked a curiosity to do some research. Business enterprises offering good prices, quality, and service cannot overcome the harm that joining “woke corporate America” will do.

The Skip & Tom Weight Challenge – Week 9

May 8, 2023 Skip

Well, I almost lost all the weight I had gained last week. Helpful but I’m still “less there” than what I was two weeks ago. All I can say is that it’s now a new week so time to improve. Tom is telling me that while he’s moderated his intake, he’s also weight lifting on … Read more

The Pandora Papers, the Diocese of Manchester, Child Trafficking and the CIA …

September 20, 2024May 8, 2023 Claire Best

New Hampshire is home to $932.5 billion in Pandora Papers hidden accounts: Trusts, LLCs, and Non-Profits. The amount is staggering. The state is also home to a very serious opioid crisis, drug trafficking, arms trafficking, family court corruption, and close to 1000 suits of child sex abuse at the Sununu Youth Detention Center as well as several criminal indictments against state employees for child abuse.

Replacing Single-Use Plastic with Single-Use Paper Is Worse for The Planet™

May 8, 2023 Steve MacDonald

Democrats everywhere have a list of things. Once elected, appointed, or hired into the bureaucracy, the job is to check the boxes even if they make no sense or contradict the stated policy goal. And none of them make any sense, and all of them contradict the advertised outcome.

Concord Communists

May 8, 2023 Michael Moffett

On March 24, 1984, my Marine Corps infantry company took off on a night training mission in South Korea. Tragically, the CH-53 helicopter behind mine lost altitude and slammed into a mountaintop. Thirty-three Marines died. Memories endure of helping carry bodies down that mountain.

America Could Get Stuck With a Sununu-Like “Booby Prize”

November 12, 2024May 8, 2023 Jim Betti

The contest was about to start, and the two coin bank prizes were on display. One coin bank was the coolest ever. It was a mechanical Rooster that when presented with a coin, would reach down with its beak, pick up the coin and deposit it into a nest-like bank.

After Tuesday evening’s School Board meeting, I have been thinking about many of the issues discussed. I have been contacted by many concerned citizens in the city. Citizens are very concerned with the direction this district is heading and those that are at the helm. I raised some of these concerns at Tuesday’s meeting and … Read more

No Longer a Question Of “IF” But When Biden-Regime Indicts AND IMPRISONS Trump

May 7, 2023 Ed Mosca

The Biden-regime has been relentlessly imprisoning its political opponents … supposedly for the “J6 insurrection” (hoax) … but in reality to intimidate its political opponents from engaging in free speech AND to set the stage for indicting and imprisoning (pretrial detention) Trump. It’s happening AND it will be tacitly supported by many of the supposed … Read more

Hey Joe … Your “Good Friend,” Rosemarie, Is A Communist

May 8, 2023May 7, 2023 Ed Mosca

Joe Sweeney is supposedly one of the NHGOP’s “leaders,” “young-guns,” “the future of the Party” etc., etc., etc., … he’s much, much, much smarter than those boomer-GOP’rs … he knows how to win in New Hampshire … OR so he would like you to believe. Actually, Joe is simply regurgitating the failed, losing mantra of … Read more

What Will His Ardent State Rep “Anti Parental Rights Bill” Supporters Do Now That Sununu “Supports” SB272?

May 7, 2023 Skip

“Spank’em when they’re wrong but thank’em when they do right.” So yes, I have to be nice to NH Governor Chris Sununu (on a preliminary basis – the NH House hasn’t voted on SB272 yet but has passed the Senate) on this news:
