Going along with my previous observations about WMUR – a tilt; Part 2: So “Diversity” really means “Democrat”?

Democrats yammer all day about about diversity this, diversity, there, diversity there…but I’m wondering how “diverse” their voting records will be for all that talk about “diversity”?  Do that really mean diversity in thought?  Diversity in legislation?

No, “Diversity” on the Democrat side is only skin-deep on the outside and mono-thought culture on the inside:

I bring that, partly as a younger person. I’m also a Latino and we could also use some more diversity in the Legislature from that perspective as well.

My question is this: Why?  If you are a Democrat, and you speak like a Democrat, and you vote like a Democrat, what does being a Latino have to do with anything?  What does having others around you look like you have to do with anything if you all act the same in the Democrat mode? From my perch outside of both Parties, it simply devolves to

Going along with my previous observations about WMUR – a tilt?

On yesterday’s WMUR News9 at 5pm, they ran a piece on the new legislators, newly elected on November 6th, as they were going through their 3 day State House orientation:

Like the political junkie I am, I watched it…and went “wait…what?”  Diversity? Methinks WMUR’s Adam Sexton went tilt on “diversity”.

If this is happening in Merrimack schools without Parental Notification, it’s probably happening in your’s.

“New Hampshire schools have redirected the purpose of school, and the primary focus is not on academics.”

Marge Chiafery, Superintendent of Schools;

I appreciate your response that you have provided and appreciate the open dialogue about data collection and social, emotional, and behavioral programming (SEL) in the state of New Hampshire. After reading the regulations for FERPA, it appears that personally identifiable information (PII) collected at the local school district level in the state of New Hampshire (i4See Data Collection system) can be shared without parents knowing about it. Knowing that social, emotional and behavioral programming is being initiated in the state, I believe the sheer magnitude of sharing sensitive, personal, and private data brings the legal issues of privacy, safety, and security to the front of my concerns. I’m sure you would agree.

Although it appears that schools and the New Hampshire Department of Education tell parents and communities that the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), 20 U.S.C. §1232g, is a Federal Privacy law designed to protect the privacy of students’ educational records. Regrettably, regulations were changed without Congressional authority where data mining of our children is permitted for research and development without the knowledge and consent of the parents. I believe it is important that parents are informed about this loophole in the regulations. Protecting children and families should be of utmost importance particularly if children are being used as research subjects. When you stated in your letter, “We have been, and will continue to be methodical in our research and in the application of research into practice….” your comment sheds light on exactly what is happening in our classrooms…methodical research into practice. Professional ethical protocols require informed consent when researching, assessing and treating subjects.

MSNBC Screen Grab Caravan Border

MSNBC Reporter Destroys MSNBC Narrative on Caravan

MSNBC does its best to carry the water for the Democrat party narratives. Heck, we could debate who is carrying who’s water. But at the end of the day it all stinks and here’s a tiny slice of heaven to prove that point. In an attempt to debunk Trump’s claim that the migrant caravan was … Read more

The Kids ‘Climate Case’ Is Not Alright

Recent legal gymnastics may have rung a death knell for a climate case with a presumptuous goal. Force the government to do something today to address the prophesied future effects of climate change, to protect children including (presumably) those not yet born. The Juliana case is likely the most ambitious and aggressive climate change suit filed to date. Filed … Read more

Illegals storming US Border

So, WMUR ran this now debunked “Mom and two kids in diapers at the border” picture

Ask yourself – what loving mother is gonna put her babies into such a dangerous situation, after being “penniless” and walking 2880 miles to end up in a “spontaneous” picture where 500 hard core, mostly male, illegal aliens trying to break into the US AFTER being warned that the border will be defended? And now are being deported by Mexico back to their home countries?  Shades of the  Israel / Gaza Strip border as the Palestinians Antifa movement has a history of staged pictures, videos, and Narrative.

And WMUR has led with the story, with this now discredited pic, during their 5pm, 6pm, and 11pm newscasts last nite.  Yeah, layers upon layers of fact checkers and editor at this Hearst outlet. News or Narrative?  “As it happens” or propaganda?  Proving the ideological bent of most newsrooms around the country don’t swing Right but have no problems with Open Borders.

Sidenote: as much as the UL has been creeping leftward, is anyone beside me thinking WMUR is sprinting in that direction the last couple of years??

And there’s more!

Boston University has failed Miserably

By Jim Johnson

Alexandria Ocasio-Ortiz (Graduated with a bachelor’s degree in economics and international relations from Boston University):

What we had was an existential threat in the context of a war. We had a direct existential threat with another nation, this time it was Nazi Germany, and the Axis, who explicitly made the United States as an enemy, as an enemy.

Me:

Wrong, the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor President Roosevelt proclaimed:

“Yesterday, December seventh, 1941, a date which will live in infamy, the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan”. The U.S. declared war on Japan December 8, 1941. Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy, Japan’s Axis partners declared war on the U.S December 11,1941.

The Clintons and the NFL just don’t get it

By Jim Johnson

We won’t get fooled Again

We’ll be fighting in the streets
With our children at our feet
And the morals that they worship will be gone
And the men who spurred us on
Sit in judgement of all wrong

-The Who

Bill and Hillary have finally failed, their much ballyhooed 13 city Tour has been forsaken for lack of attendance. There are still a few loyal supporters, but their unable to afford the ridiculous cost of admission. The Clinton’s penchant for other peoples’ money has caught up with them.

John Locke

Of Treatises of Government

At the outset, I defined this effort as a discussion of John Locke’s Second Treatise of Government. Of course, as the name suggests, there is also a First Treatise of Government which I had not as yet read. Therefore, I set to reading Locke’s First Treatise to find out what its relationship is to the Second. Was it a first draft supplanted by the Second or was the Second a continuation of the First.

Locke’s First Treatise of Government is in fact a rebuttal to a work by Sir Robert Fuller who sought to justify divine right kings. He found Fuller’s work to be generally absurd, and proceeded to spend great effort to expose those absurdities. Locke accuses Fuller of making vague and repetitive arguments, which in turn causes Locke’s rebuttal to be repetitive as well. Having satisfied with himself that he had debunked Fuller’s work, Locke set about defining what in fact does constitute legitimate government. Lock had in fact at least begun his Second Treatise when he was writing the last chapters of his First Treatise since he makes direct reference to the Sixth Chapter of his Second Treatise regarding paternal power.
