Jeff Woddburn’s arrest on nine counts of Domestic violence, he’s been laying low. So low that reposts suggest he has not been to any meetings or events (so we shouldn’t expect to see him at this one). There are few if any signs (literally) indicating he is running for public office even though he has refused to resign or drop his re-election bid.

Corporations are ‘People’ Too!
The left works hard on their corporate speech, corporations aren’t people, campaign finance reform song and dance narratives. But here’s a quick and easy way to explain to friends and family why it’s all just a bunch of left-wing hooey.
Are corporations – which are just a bunch of people working collectively toward a shared interest- subject to taxes and regulations? Yes?
So, who’s next?

Jane Cormier cut a 30-second radio spot today and we’d like to share it.
Govt.-Funded News Outlet Finds Most School Shootings in Fed Report Didn’t Occur
NPR went on a little crusade to explore school shooting data from a federal report only to discover that most of the ‘shootings’ never happened.
In an amusing story, a government-funded media outlet notorious for its liberal slant found that the overwhelming majority of school shootings listed in a federal report never occurred. The embarrassing blunder involves Department of Education (DOE) figures stating that schools around the U.S. reported an alarming 235 shootings in one year.
All Cornerstone Action Endorsements for the NH Republican Primary on Tuesday
In an email released yesterday Cornerstone Action PAC announced its endorsements in contested Republican primaries for state-level races. These are for the Executive Council, State Senate, and NH House. “The Cornerstone Action PAC is non-partisan and evaluates candidates without regard to party affiliation. Candidate party affiliation is noted below.”
Each of these candidates has a contested primary race. Endorsements are based on high scores on the Cornerstone candidate survey, on voting records, and on consistency between surveys and votes.
Here is a list of all their endorsements.
The Kavanaugh Compromise
Recent discussions regarding the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court seem to have centered largely around two issues: guns and abortion.
Judging from my own experience, conservatives tend to be both pro-gun and anti-abortion, while progressives tend to be both anti-gun and pro-abortion:
Pro-abortion Anti-abortion Pro-gun Conservative Anti-gun Progressive
So it occurs to me that the current juxtaposition of these two issues might represent an opportunity to make, albeit informally, a historic deal linking the two.
Let Teachers Be Armed..But Lets Not ‘Arm Teachers’
This is one of those rare occasions where I depart company with my fellow Groksters. This is hard for me to do. But it is one of those rare…very rare times where I sit here and think, “Guys, I happen to think I am right here!” Eddie is right on this issue. Here’s the deal…
Eddie Edwards is the candidate I am going to support. I hope at the end of September 11, he will be the Republican nominee. Eddie is SOLIDLY pro-second amendment. Eddie is anti-big government. Please see this video for proper perspective.
Dick’s Sales Drop 4 Percent After Its Embrace of the Liberal Narrative on Guns
Consumer confidence is reaching new heights and the economy is clicking along but not at Dick’s sporting goods.
In the Wall Street Journal report, Dick’s said that comparable store sales from the previous year had fallen 4 percent, and the company’s same-store sales from the previous year were down 1.9 percent.
The results, according to the report, were clearly weaker than expected — especially considering that consumer confidence for the month of August was the highest that it’s been in nearly two decades.
Before You Raise My Taxes, Do You Take any Deductions?
One of the highest forms of participation in society for the left is the obligation to pay taxes. It’s patriotic, it’s civic-minded, it’s all kinds of things, but most importantly it is a moral obligation.
And the left always wants everyone to give more because frankly there is no ceiling on how big their government can get or home mush it needs. So, you’ll hear all sorts of explanations for why we need more taxes or higher taxes. But before you let them off the hook ask that Democrat a few questions.
The Impact of Nike’s Embrace of Colin Kaepernick in One Image
Zero Hedge reports on the impact of Anthem kneeling, cops are pigs socks-wearing sometimes NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick. A four billion dollar loss in market value so far. That’s billion with a “B.”
I hope Colin already cashed the check because being the face of loss is one thing but being the face of massive loss is not a keeper even for virtue-signaling multi-national corporations.
Defensive Urban Rifle with John Farnam

So one week from Saturday, Londonderry Fish & Game Club will be hosting John Farnam for Defensive Urban Rifle Class. That is Saturday, September 15 and Sunday September 16 for the Moms Demand crowd.

Rep. Ben Sasse Talks About the Kavanaugh Confirmation Circus
Senator Ben Sasse felt the need to use his time on day one of the Kavanaugh confirmation hearing to explain a few things about the confirmation process, the role of the Court, the legislature. Basic stuff you’d think sitting US Senators should have figured out.
I guess not.
Senator Boutin – “Get off my lawn!”
BUMPED: from 11/20/13 – Regardless of Boutin’s word, it is clear that he voted to bring Obama’s Medicaid Expansion into New Hampshire willingly and knowingly. He increased the size and cost of Government, contra the NH GOP Platform. He voted with the State Senate Leadership over Republican Principles. His financial slight of hand did not go unnoticed. Please vote for Bill Kuch in the Republican Primary on Sept 11, 2018.
**********************
H/T Brian Tilton:
“Concord, NH – State Senator David Boutin, R- Hooksett, issued the following statement this morning prior to Governor Hassan’s event in support of ObamaCare:
Jeff Woodburn Should Introduce Alec Baldwin at the NH Dem’s “Identity-Crisis” Dinner
Tone deafness isn’t intentionally written into the New Hampshire Democrat Party Platform, but hypocrisy is. So, it makes sense that the same so-called “party of women” thought it would be a great idea to re-name their Jefferson-Jackson dinner (Men who had slaves!) the Kennedy-Clinton Dinner (Men who had sex slaves.)
This year the Democrats identity-crisis dinner is named after Eleanor Roosevelt (I guess Weiner Weinstein was out of the question?) but then invited Alec Baldwin as their keynote speaker.
Of Militia
Americans suffer from a political disability. They no longer understand the intent of the most fundamental organs of our government. If you as the typical American ask what a militia is, they will tell likely you that it is a group of people playing army in the woods. Or even worse, they will tell that it is people organizing to fight the government. If you ask them how a militia is formed, they will reply that someone just gets a bunch of friends to follow them. Appoints himself as leader and others as subordinate officers. All of this seems to proceed out of a mythology surrounding the American War for Independence.
There is an idea that local leaders simply decided to form militia companies, and other local people fell in behind them. Then they all just marched off to fight the British. Nothing could be further from the truth.
“I fully support the Second Amendment!” – no you don’t, Mr. Edwards (Republican candidate for NH CD-1)
First, let me state this: Groksters have decided to not put out an endorsement in the Republican Primary race in NH First Congressional District. We’ve basically said “a pox on both their houses” for the dumpster fire that has become the norm this go around. We interviewed both; an hour and a half with Andy Sanborn and two and a half with Eddie Edwards. Both were gracious and we were allowed to ask pretty much any question that popped into our heads. Both allowed us to video record their entire times and it was relayed that since not all of the Groksters couldn’t attend the sessions, we wanted them to be able to form their own views from the interviews. We were also given permission, by both, to post the videos if we wanted to. To date, we have not.
Which brings me to the sign above. It became clear that Mr. Edwards did not agree with it during our interview; I grow weary of politicians saying different things to different audiences. In this case, to we Groksters and then to others.
If it isn’t on “google”…….
Some guy on Facebook was berating me because, instead of simply asking the Attorney General’s himself office for copies of the recently released NH Senate investigation transcripts, the fact he couldn’t “google” them meant they didn’t exist. He even suggested I might have made the whole thing up. So, for any of you who also … Read more
But Bernie, didn’t you Democrats already do that?
“We will not allow Trump or anybody else to divide us up based on the color of our skin, our religion, our nation and nationality, or our sexual orientation.”
-Bernie Sanders at the annual AFL-CIO Labor Day breakfast (WMUR News 9/3/2018)
Gosh, doesn’t that sounds exactly like the definition of the Democrat Identity Politics Totem Poll – everybody is segregated by skin color, nationality / multiculture, and sexual orientation on which they base their voting and priority messaging? Oh wait – that religion part? Dems don’t much care for religion generally, unless you see their proclivities for socialism / humanism as a religion in and of itself replete with its own sacred texts, songs, assorted readings, chants, and high Priests. And then there’s these observations:
Illegal Aliens, Devious Politicians, and Hidden Agendas
As the mid-term election approaches, the subject of illegal immigration is again heating up. The two major parties, once in general agreement on the issue, now have diametrically opposing views. Republicans want to eliminate illegal immigration, while welcoming legal immigrants. On the other side, Democrats are resisting all efforts to control our borders. Though they … Read more
