Or they should – but Progressives have always worked to denature, debase, denigrate, and re-define our common language. Here’s a couple of examples to send them into orbit (Oooh! Targets for Trump’s new branch of the US Military – the US Space Force?)
Notable Quote – Kimberly Ross on “Christine Hallquist”
Reformatted, emphasis mine:
On Tuesday, Christine Hallquist won the Democratic primary in the state of Vermont and is officially the party’s gubernatorial candidate. Such a win would normally not receive much attention at all. However, Hallquist, who spent most of his life by the given name ‘David’, now lives as a transgender woman. As we’re well aware, that in itself launches him to a place of prominence among Leftists. As an actual, biological female, I find such obsessions not only irritating but downright insulting.
Why Democrats Don’t Trust You With Guns…
The typical Democrat reaction to anything relating to guns tells you a lot about them. Human beings filter things through the lens of their personal worldview and firearms are a great example of this.
The Democrat narrative claims that people can’t be trusted with firearms because at any moment they might snap and shoot everyone around them. In New Hampshire, a common theme when Liberals are trying to restrict firearms by limiting the places they can be carried is the old ‘Blood in the Streets’ narrative.
We can’t let them (continue to carry firearms here or there) it’ll be a wild west shoot out! Blood in the Streets!
It never happens but they do it anyway. Why?
Is Edwards just another fake Conservative?
Eddie Edwards announced that won’t participate in the Republican primary debate tonight because he refuses to commit to supporting Andy Sanborn should Sanborn win the Republican primary in the First Congressional District. How can anyone claiming to be a Conservative not fight to elect a Republican, let alone a proven Conservative Republican, versus what promises to be another leftist Democrat?
On Being “A True Granite Stater”
Cornerstone has issued its legislative scorecard for the 2017-18 session, bringing forth this reaction from the chairman of New Hampshire’s Democratic Party (which may account for an increase in the scorecard’s circulation):
As someone who has worked with Cornerstone (currently as a consultant), I think it’s worth looking at what Mr. Chairman considers “anathema to NH values.”
John Brennan Loses His Security Clearance, Usual Suspects Lose Their Minds
This is not surprising news to anyone but the media. Their devotion to the Trump Russia Collusion narrative (they created) makes them incapable of seeing the big picture. A picture that includes leading intelligence officials of yore who lied under oath and leaked classified intel to the press. One of them was John Brennan.
Brennan was a great choice to head Obama’s CIA because he is pompous, arrogant, and lies easily. Even under oath. Which is grounds for his clearance being revoked but that’s not why they did it.
Gosnell – Movie Trailer
Kermit Gosnell is no mystery to our readers but if you are new look here.
And, if you might be interested in the movie we have this from Phelim and Ann and the movie trailer on the jump.
Please watch and share with everyone you know and on social media. We need your help to get this important story the attention it has never received. The mainstream media don’t want anyone to see this movie, Planned Parenthood don’t want anyone to see this movie, Hollywood doesn’t want anyone to see this movie.
In 2014 Rick Dowd was a Republican for Democrat Peggy Gilmour
Peggy Gilmour is a progressive Democrat. She’s very progressive. She worships at all the progressive totems. Speaks the language of the left. She likes more taxes, more regulation, and less local control.
In 2014 Nashua Alderman Rick Dowd endorsed Democrat Peggy Gilmour. Dowd was a Republican for Peggy. He supported her instead of an actual Republican, Kevin Avard.
And now Rick is pretending to be both a Republican and Peggy Gilmour.
How we’ll get a state income tax
I was in the audience last night at Richards School in Newport for Andru Volinksy’s dog and pony show on school funding in New Hampshire.
I got the chance to ask a question, which was, roughly: Is there any interpretation that the Supreme Court could come up with, that is so outlandish, so contrary to common English usage — like deciding that from now on, ‘green’ actually means ‘blue’, or that in Article 19, the word ‘all’ now means ‘some’ — that the legislature would be justified in saying, ‘No, we’re not going to listen to you’?
The Gaystapo and the State of Colorado are Harassing Masterpiece Cakeshop Again
The Colorado Civil Rights Commission didn’t just target Masterpiece Cakeshop they were openly hostile to the owners religious beliefs and indifferent to the tenants of his faith. The reuslt was a sweeping rebuke by the U.S. Supreme Court that itemized the sins of the state.
Colorado didn’t care. They’re back, and shop owner Jack Phillips has to sue them to get them off his back.
This Saturday! SDGANH (School District Governance Association of NH) is having a Golf fundraiser
UPDATE: Bumped up from 6/5,7/9, 7/20, 8/2 as August 18th will soon be here; consider this a reminder!
Well, I do know which end of a golf club to hold, and I know the object is to put a small ball into a rather small hole, but that’s the extent of my knowledge of the game. However, the SDGANH is a relatively new conservative alternative to the Progressive-ly captured the New Hampshire School Boards Association and it is looking for new members (prior or currently elected School Board or Budget Committee members) and concerned citizens in support of their mission (“Helping School Board and Budget Committee members discover their Powers”), are looking to raise some funds:
Nashua Mayor Asks For 4 Million From Surplus None of it For Commuter Rail
I guess there are bigger priorities in Nashua than “Choo Choo.” Capital equipment. Playgrounds. Sidewalks. A few ‘plants’ to spiffy up the joint. Work on a community center. Repurposing technology and updating an online dashboard so residents can access information from about city projects and initiatives. Like choo choo?
Nashua has four million dollars (leftover) and not a penny of it earmarked for another rail study.
They did earmark some to remove invasive species. No, not out-of-state Massachusetts voters living in Dem. Rep. Cindy Rosenwald’s house; plants by the river, or something.
Democrats More Positive About Socialism Than Capitalism
As some Democrats look for ways to run away from the reality of their political baggage Gallup comes along and shoots them in the kneecaps.
For the first time in Gallup’s measurement over the past decade, Democrats have a more positive image of socialism than they do of capitalism.
The problem? The indoctrination is working. But the professional left isn’t ready to come out of the closet quite yet.
Sales Tax in NH – A Constitutional & NH House take on S. Dakota vs Wayfair SCOTUS decision
Recently, the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) handed down an opinion in the South Dakota versus Wayfair (SD v Wayfair). The South Dakota Legislature had passed a law that enabled South Dakota to go after taxes on purchases citizens had made from Wayfair. The S. D. Supreme Court held that the law was unconstitutional, and it was appealed to SCOTUS. Previously, SCOTUS had held the opinion that no taxes could be collected if the retailer had no substantial physical presence in the State seeking the tax revenue.
Parallel to this an organization has grown up.
Dave Boutin Sides with Accused Heroin Trafficker To Attack Primary Opponent
In a recent mailer, which will take several posts to “depose” State Senate Candidate David Boutin came out smearing Republican Primary opponent Bill Kuch.
Boutin claims (see above) that his primary opponent, Bill Kuch, is extreme for voting against Marsy’s law. Hello! Dave? The New Hampshire House voted 284 – 51 against CACR22 (Marsy’s Law).
Dave Boutin thinks that’s extreme. As opposed to this?
A Reminder of Why We Need to Fight New Hampshire’s Many Cartels
New Hampshire has some obscene licensing rules that increase costs and prohibit or at least limit competition. Everyone agrees, except the cartel owners, and we’ve seen minor improvements in recent years. But we could do a lot better. So, I’m wondering if there’s leverage to be found in recent rulings against taxi cartels that deny them their monopoly.
In a resounding win for innovation and economic liberty, the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously ruled on Monday that taxi owners in Miami-Dade County have “no right to block competition” from ride-hailing firms like Lyft and Uber.
Proof That the New Hampshire Firearms Coalition Survey is Meaningless; Alan Rice has emptied his mag in going to a gun fight
Back on July 30, I caught wind of how the NH Firearms Coalition had decided that IF you didn’t answer their questionaire or didn’t answer all of their questions, you were automatically ruled to be “anti-gun” or “anti-Second Amendment” (above). Steve had more here as well. And yes, I’ve also caught a lot of flack over posting it. No matter, don’t care. Well, I do care – about those that were about to be slimed worse than the celebrities that venture onto some Nickelodeon; at least on those shows, its all good, green gooey slime in fun. With the NHFC, think of the opposite – and I blame, not the good folks that I know that are a part of it but the guy that signed the above – Alan Rice. IMHO? Power trip. With this little stunt to self-aggrandize himself, he’s not only diminished himself but the group he thinks serves, not the gun community, but himself. Almost all of we Groksters shoot and certainly all defend the Second Amendment and supporters that work, in way or another, to keep the REAL anti-gunners (that’s you, NH State Rep Katherine Rogers, you convicted assaulter!).
But with the above, Rice shows that he’s the equivalent of a crew served dual Ma Dueces on top of an MRAP controlled from inside (like the Youngest did) – but with a haywire control system that’s shooting at anything in sight. Just out of control! How else can one countenance the idea that if you failed to respond, in part or in all, you’d get an “F”? And here in NH, getting that in the Conservative community is like a whipping (and it seemingly makes Rice come off as some medieval enforcer – with a smile on his face.
IRS Recognizes Church of Modern Witchcraft
Anti-Trans feminists have created their own church, recognized by the IRS. Its recognition as a church allows it to be very specific about who can join this non-profit organization.
A woman is an adult female human. A girl is a minor female human. The Pussy Church serves Women and Girls only. Males are not permitted to participate, regardless of how they identify. We expressly reject the concepts of gender identity, transgenderism, and gender as being meaningful to defining what a Woman or Girl is.
Has the University of New Hampshire Been ‘Colluding’ With the Chinese Government?
In March of this year, the CIA issued a classified report labeling Confucious institutes as a threat.
The CIA has issued a classified report detailing China’s far-reaching foreign influence operations campaign in the United States, which imparts financial incentives as leverage to permeate American institutions.
The University of New Hampshire has had theirs since 2010. But according to the US Intelligence community, these arrangements may “provide ‘strings-attached’ funding to academic institutions and think tanks to deter research that casts (China) in a negative light,”
Democrats Don’t Give a Crap About “The Poor” – Part ….(It’s a Really Big Number)
When Ann Kuster (and the rest of New Hampshire’s All Gurl Congressional Delegation) voted against tax reform on purely ideological grounds (based on fake news and flawed data), they voted to continue a punishing regressive tax on low-income families.
Republicans included in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act a provision reducing the Obamacare penalty for not purchasing “qualifying” health insurance to $0, beginning in January 2019. This move was particularly important for working-class families because IRS tax data show of the 6.6 million filers required to pay the Obamacare penalty in 2015, the most recent year for which data are available, 36 percent had an adjusted gross income of $10,000 to $25,000.
