After the re-counts took place in Nashua and the GOP candidates each added approx 20+ votes. This was due to the tabulators not reading ballots with check marks, stars, or x’s, that people put down instead of filling in the ovals.
Friday Open Thread – So, Has Everyone Calmed Down From Last Week? Or is “Cold Fury” Setting In?
Anger – but rationally directed. Not helpless, not a victim – but “self-righteous revenge” might work. The fury of “I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore” setting in with a determination of “Molon Labe” mixed with a Gandalfian “You Shall Not Pass” ‘tude. Or, is everything buttercups and fairy rainbows … Read more

2022 Election Cycle Leftovers
I have this habit, both good and bad depending on your point of view, of being a “tab hoarder”. I just don’t open up a few tabs for posts that I would LIKE to comment on – I have a lot. Right now, probably well over 800. I keep deluding myself that “I’ll get to … Read more
Speaker Maxwell Re-names Herself Miss America
Ahem. On November 17, GraniteGrok published two articles of mine. The one on Karoline Leavitt has got all the attention, while the hotter-than-hot one slipped away. Here it is, it’s about me trying to become Speaker of the US House.

In “Speech” About Post-Speaker Plans Pelosi “Admits” She is an Election Denier
Soon-to-again-be-former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi took the opportunity of being back in the minority to deliver a lengthy word salad about her plans moving forward. Blah, Blah, Blah, and oh, by the way, she admitted to being an election denier.

Did The COP 27 Climate Cult Promise Indonesia 20 Billion so It Could Buy Coal from China?
I guess Indonesia has a thriving steel industry. I didn’t know that. What I do know is that you can’t make steel without coal. I also know – thanks to PJ Media – that the COP27 Green Junkies are offering Indonesia 20 billion to give up coal. Smiling, fingers crossed behind their back, Indonesia says 20 billion? Sure!

Good news for New Hampshire. Vermont’s next mandatory minimum wage hike is set to go off on January 1st, 2023. That means fewer jobs and job creators across the river, a few of whom will consider jumping the border to set up shop in New Hampshire.
GrokApp – A Proposal
Steve has been driving the process for years to create a mobile GrokApp – and lately, I’ve been the bottleneck (truth be told) due to “other stuff.” However, now is the time.
Mitch McConnell Unveils His Agenda for 2023-2024 … Reelect Joe Biden
Not all, but a majority of Republicans in Congress do NOT want to win. More precisely, they define winning differently than the voters. The voters define winning as, for example, Republican control of the Senate.
November BCRC: General Members Only Meeting – Charges against Gregg Hough (Meeting Disruption)

I Think Karoline Leavitt Won on November 8, 2022
This article — if you could even call it an article — is based on pure, unadulterated hearsay. I’d like to go on record with my impression of the House race for Congress District 1. Ten Republicans vied for the primary nomination on September 13, 2022 (Prescott, Rondeau, Towne, Alciere, Baxter, Huff Brown, Killbane, Leavitt, … Read more
New England’s Shortsightedness on Energy Isn’t Just Bad for You, It is Bad for The Green Agenda
It is no longer a secret. Instead of letting consumers and markets drive energy decisions, environmental activists and special interests did. The byproduct of policymakers listening to moonbats is, ironically, going to be worse for the environment.
One Way To De-Westminsterize Congress: A Layperson Speaker of the House
On January 3, 2023, the 535 members of the 118th Congress will show up for duty on Capitol Hill. They owe nothing to any previous Congress. They can repeal or amend any law that was ever passed, going back to 1789.
Ask Multi-Jabbed Whoopi Goldberg. How’s The View From Your Second Case of COVID?
I remember being in my pediatrician’s office with my mom when I was a kid. He had a small desk, a white coat, a cup of coffee, and a lit cigarette dancing on his lips as he spoke. He was my health professional. And that was the norm.
Donald is in…..What’s Next
As much as I think the results of the Donald Trump Presidency will be considered one of the most successful in history, I hoped he would not re-enter the race for the White House.
