It’s Still Voter Fraud – Like It Or Not

Burning USS Raleigh on NH State FlagNew Hampshire has about 980,000 registered voters.

At least 5,300 of those voters:

  • Can’t legally register their dog in New Hampshire.
  • May not legally obtain a NH hunting license.
  • None of those “voters” are qualified to be called for jury duty in the Granite State.
  • Are paying out-of-state college tuition at NH State Colleges because they cannot legally sign the domicile statement on the NH Resident Tuition Form.

The same number used an out-of-state driver’s license as identification to help NH elect candidates.

Sununu Signs Bill To Allow Families to Opt Out of Statewide Assesments

HB1744 - Chaptered LawHB1744, an ACT authorizing a parent to exempt his or her child from participating in the statewide assessment program, is now Law in New Hampshire. It does a few things. It allows parents or legal guardians to exclude their children from any statewide assessment. It prohibits local districts form punishing parents or students for choosing to opt out. And it excludes the names of student’s and parents from Right to Know requests, protecting them from intimidation tactics by third parties.

Iowa Supreme Court Rules Civil Forfeiture Laws Violate Fifth Amendment

hundreddollarbills-money-cash-bloomberg-750xx1024-576-0-53From Forbes.com care of Kevin Bloom, the Iowa Supreme Court has ruled that the state’s Civil Asset Forfeiture laws violate the Fifth Amendment to the constitution.

Under state law, property owners who want to reclaim their seized property must fully disclose “the nature and extent” of their interest in the property, as well as “the date, the identity of the transferor, the circumstances of the claimant’s acquisition.” Refusing to comply can result in the property forfeited to the state. Yet those forced disclosures may reveal information that could incriminate the owner or trigger a perjury trap, which would violate the Fifth Amendment.

They Like to Try to Weaponize Our Morality Against Us

Go Pound SandKurt Schlichter has invested some time to help the peeps deal with progressive mic-drop rubbish designed to prevent debate or silence dissent. He calls them obnoxious liberal argument cheats. And he’s got a reliable answer for each that I’ve advocated for years. So read them all. But I wanted to share at least one of his scenarios because this one comes at us from all sides.

They like to try to weaponize our morality against us, which is hilarious since they hate morality almost as much as they hate us. They create some sort of moral test, usually out of thin air, and then announce you have failed it. One of the best was the recent “Splitting up families of undocumented workers is not who we are!” Except it is who we are. We split up the families of criminals all the time and we should – there’s no nursery in San Quentin for a reason.

Proving Once Again How Right I Am

HypocriteIf you’ve missed it, and to do that you’d have had never to read a word written here (which, don’t be surprised, is common among people passing judgment on my commentary), I’ve made the case that Democrats don’t actually care about women, children, blacks, Latinos, or any of the LGBTQ folks. Add to that teachers, single moms, cops, blue-collar backbones of America, working families, and even “immigrants” legal or otherwise whether white, black, gay, you get the picture? If you are not on Team Progressive, your tribal rights are revoked. Nothing about you entitles you for anything but derision if you dare to speak outside the approved narratives.

The latest example of this comes courtesy of Samantha Bee who is getting an award for ‘Social Change,’ after calling Ivanka Trump a, hang on. This needs to go after the jump.

Every election in NH is really a race in three parts: 1) for political activists to serve on campaigns, endorsements, and donors, 2) to win the primary election, and 3) to win the general election. That first race is nearing its end. We at the ‘Grok have been studying the candidates, listening to their words, and reading their campaign materials to evaluate where they stand in OUR eyes.

Blogline of the Day: Progressive Double Standard because she likes Trump

SHOT:  BREAKING: ABC cancels Roseanne after ‘abhorrent, repugnant’ tweet.

CHASER:   Question for investors: Should you risk your money on a network that will trash its most valuable property over a tweet?

So Hollywood, that pack of hypocritical moralizers that has constantly preached to we Normals how bad we were (and their actual beliefs gave rise to the #MeToo movement), decided to be like Progressives everywhere – see an existential threat to their agenda (e.g., NOT a Trump hater!) and search high and low for a reason, any reason at all, to get that person torched out of existence.  Sure, she GAVE them a reason but no amount of apologizing will suffice.  That’s their M.O. The cherry on top is that she’s KNOWN for this kind of outburst – except it used to be from the Left.

And another SJW at work (that is, making herself feel good about herself) but…

…hurting the ones she professes to believe to be oppressed and MUST be set free by Government Decree (emphasis mine):

Actress Sarah Jessica Parker recently held a gala to raise funds for the One Fair Wage campaign which is designed to raise wages for those in the restaurant industry.  Some tickets went for $50,000 and each dinner cost $500. This is did not sit well with many who happen to work in the restaurant business. Many within that industry fear that an increase in the minimum wage will result in job losses.

For heaven’s sake, that’s NEVER happened before!  Just ask those in San Francisco and Seattle and other places where they’ve “lifted up the oppressed by making SURE they earn more”.

In fact, Joshua Chiasson, a representative for the Restaurant Workers of America, had this take on the gala:

Let’s keep him…

…and not just because he’s earned the bags under his eyes; when he uses that word “annihilated“, it’s like Patton all over again. Not mincing words – boffo!  Or as the Left says, speaking truth to power. Sidenote: what does the German Defence Minister actually do?  Hardly anything military of theirs even works!

A Boost from Ed’s post: “So, Governor, You Want to Talk About the Constitutionality of HB 1264? Let’s Talk.”

voted-by- mail vote absentee in your own stateI thought these comments get to the nub and heart of the problem – seemingly, Progressives can’t understand it at all.  I guess it’s the same bigotry of low expectations when they scream and holler that requiring “oppressed, minority, and underrepresented communities” can’t do the same things to get an ID like everyone else.  What is so dang hard about out of state tuition?

Liberal Conservative • 2 days ago
This is not complicated in any way. Here’s the test: do you pay out of state tuition? Yes. Then vote via absentee ballot from your state of residence because you can’t vote in NH. I just don’t understand what is so difficult about this.

Bryan W  Liberal Conservative • 6 hours ago
It’s not difficult. I know I’ve posted here before – when my daughters decided to become Utah residents so they could get in-state tuition there, the process there was simple, but could take up to a year: 1) Establish yourself at an address. 2) Get a Utah drivers license or non-drivers ID. 3) Register your car(s) in Utah if you have any. 4) Register to vote using that ID. 5) Pay in-state income tax or property tax (even if you don’t owe anything). You have to satisfy 3 out of 5 tests, then you can get in-state tuition. Gaining residency for voting purposes here should be no less stringent.

But Progressives say “that’s too HAAAaaarrdd” for college students to do.  After all, a WHOLE YEAR??  Oh wait – they’re here for four, right? So let me get this straight:

Starbucks wants to lecture you

And given the latest policy from Starbuck as they go all out self-flagellating over “unconscious bias and latent racism” by ALL their employees:

The Women’s Defense League should hold meetings at Starbucks

That would be the Women’s Defense League of NH. Remember, Starbucks made “a request”, not a demand and not a policy of “get out”.  What, they want another PR Black Eye?

Sidenote: Hmmm, pun wasn’t intended as I was typing it, but why not pile on Starbucks right now?  After all, by requiring ALL of their employees to attend this meeting, and telling their baristas a while ago that Starbucks was a place for them to engage their customers in talks about race (Huh?  Trying to have it BOTH ways. Again?)

Go in and have a great meeting on the finer points of REAL gun control

Media Face-palm – Blames Trump for Pics of Kids In Cages…from Obama Era

Obama-middle-finger-725x375The media went nutty (as I expect did the Never-Trumpers) over photos of children in cages attributed to Mr. Trump’s border enforcement but the images were taken…during the Obama administration.

The photos appeared in the Arizona Republic in 2014 during former President Barack Obama’s second term to illustrate the over 1,000 children detained by authorities trying to cross the border. Mr. Obama’s former speech writer Jon Favreau also tweeted out the pictures saying this is “happening right now” and the government needs to be forced to put families back together. He has since deleted the tweet.

Democrat’s Hypocritical Reaction to Gas Prices Revisited

pumping gasOn March 20th, 2014 I produced (what I thought was) a useful visual aid. It demonstrated the truth about Democrat “feelings” and “concern” for the impact of average US retail gas prices on “Working Americans” and or “American Families.” They don’t care.

It showed how, when George Bush was President, it was a huge issue. Democrats running for office in 2008 ran on it. While Gas was between three and four-dollars per gallon under Obama, four approximately four years, Democrats had nothing to say. They didn’t talk about it. It didn’t concern them.

History repeats itself, so it’s time for a new visual aid to help demonstrate the truth about the left and the cost of motor fuel.

Notable Quote – Prof. Don Broudreau

Economic competition is the most reliable and incorruptible form of regulation. If in free markets that are unsullied by government favoritism an airline mistreats its passengers or a bank is careless with its customers’ deposits, the market punishes these firms with losses and, if they don’t mend their ways, with bankruptcy. In other words, when markets are free, the ability of consumers to withhold their spending is a source of what I believe to be the most strict means of regulation.

In contrast, so-called regulation by government has the opposite effect. Although sold as government efforts to ensure that businesses better serve the public, far too many government “regulations” are really devious schemes to give politically powerful industry incumbents protection against competition from upstart entrepreneurs and politically weak firms.
