Democrat saying that the electorate is “too stupid to vote”

Maggie Toulouse NM Sec of State
Once again we see the Democrats showing their “bigotry of low expectations” – y’all are STUPID! What is in the water that these Progressives are drinking that makes them believe such stuff? Oh, yeah, their over-stuffed sense of elitism that drives them to believe “we must ‘evolve’ everyone else (we’re already woke and evolved) – they can’t live their lives without us telling them how to live it” (emphasis mine, reformatted):

It appears that New Mexico’s Secretary of State believe voters are “too stupid to fill out ballots.” I kid you not.

[Secretary of State Maggie Toulouse] Oliver argues picking the candidates voters want is “long and complicated,” and therefore they need to be told who to vote for based on party (emphasis mine). She said having voters choose every candidate they are voting for is “voter suppression.” “Simply put: the decision to end straight ticket voting in New Mexico was a cynical partisan attempt to make it more difficult for New Mexicans to vote,” Oliver said. Oliver also claims voting is too difficult, unless voters can just check the “Democrat” box.

Data Point – Trump is more popular now than Obama

…at the same time in their Presidencies. 50% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Forty-nine percent (49%) disapprove. 33% who Strongly Approve of the way the president is performing and 39% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of -6.

Notable Quote – Don Surber

Once again we see liberalism as a religion. The liberals’ high opinion of themselves is amusing. I forget who said it first, but when you lose a sense your other senses become more intense; thus when you lose your sense of humor, your sense of self-importance grows. –Don Surber Talking about a sense of humor … Read more

I oft said that Liberals can only win when they redefine the language. Merriam-Webster just did exactly that. For the Left.

My AR-15 identifies as a single shot bolt actionSo now we know where one of the premier English language dictionaries, Merriam-Webster, lies on the political spectrum – full Progressive. As the post notes, here is the “definition” for “assault rifle”

noun: any of various automatic or semiautomatic rifles with large capacity magazines designed for military use.

I have big problems with this – it’s still wrong, of course. The quick “gunsplainin'” is that 30 round mags are Standard capacity, not 10, not 7, nor 5. The proper term is “selective fire” which doesn’t even appear in their definition: full automatic (pull trigger once, rounds keep firing), burst mode (standard US is one trigger pull, three rounds fired), or semiautomatic (1 trigger pull, 1 round fired). “Or” is a red-herring in the above. Let me add that an AR-15 is NOT designed for military use.

Now, “after Parkland” (in fact, redefined March 31, 2018), we see that Merriam-Webster has decided to choose political sides:

Did Dennis Senibaldi violate Election law as a Windham Town Employee?

joanisrekartsenibaldiBUMPED (from 3/27/15): Ah now, we’re getting a tad closer as to the activities of one Dennis Senibaldi last month during Windham’s town elections. No, not quite the same but of the same nature. More soon! -Skip

******************

During the recent Windham School Board elections there was a photo posted on Mike Joanis’ campaign Facebook page at the Windham Transfer Station that shows he and Jerome Rekart campaigning with a photo of Dennis Senibaldi. No big deal right?

Did Windham’s Dennis Senibaldi violate the state computer crime law?

BUMPED: First posted on 3/24/15. Well, it seems that Dennis Senibaldi may have gotten himself into a peck of a place during this past election – and I’m not just talking about the blizzard we got. Our intrepid Kimberly was all over this – and it makes a great reminder of what current School Board member (and Windham Transfer Station guy) did – and how he may have acted during this just past election (birdies, birdies – they all tweet at me!). -Skip

**********************

There is new information concerning the shenanigans pulled by Windham School Board member Dennis Senibaldi last week during the school board meeting.

“here’s the million-dollar question: What the hell are they waiting for? Go on, chaps. Bloody well do it. Seriously, try it. Start the process.””

From now on, the Democrats can NEVER say “we’re not going to take your guns”. With the signs at the March for Lesser Rights Our Lives, the rhetoric from 17 and younger teens (free from Constitutional meaning), the media, and of course, former Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stephens have all made it clear – nothing less than complete disarmament is acceptable. I’ve seen the calls for the taking, the total confiscation, of “Assault Weapons” – even as there are far more lethal long guns in the hands of millions than the AR-15s that give the Socialist Progressives (and the unknown “can’t tell them much” child-students) the DTs and vapor (and they still believe that AR stands for “Assault Rifle”). I’ve also seen groups advocating that ALL semi-automatic firearms, long guns AND handguns, be turned in and banned.

Now comes this from about as high in the Democrat Party as one can get and makes it clear what the Democrat Party truly stands for:

Scott Pruitt and EPA Scrap Obama Era Fuel Efficiency Mandates

EPAEPA chief Scott Pruitt just sent a message to consumers and car makers that he’s okay with them deciding what sort of fuel efficiency they want in a motor vehicle.

He just scrapped Obama’s Federal CAFE Standards.

In a statement, Mr. Pruitt said the program, known as the Corporate Average Fuel Economy, or CAFE standards, fell victim to politics during the final days of the Obama administration. He said his predecessors at the EPA rushed through rules governing fuel economy for model years 2022 through 2025, and that those rules simply aren’t realistic.

First, the end of our Journey with DCYF – Part 1

Adoption certificateWho knew, 33 years after the first time, that TMEW and I would be parents again – it is now official!

Please note that the original is much better looking, out for framing, and I’ve “touched it up” word-wise as well (hey, can you tell?). Not only granting and finishing this journey at the FINAL (Woo-hoo!) hearing a couple of weeks ago, “The Judge” did another nice thing (almost as nice and as important as the “so ordered” above), he lifted the gag order that he had placed on this lowly blogger once he knew who I was and how I was connected to GraniteGrok.

That, however, will be another Part because I think how he found out was rather amusing.

Democrat Party Drooling Over Malaysian Law – Fake News Could Get You 6 Months In Jail

Malaysian law equals jail for sharing fake news
Image Credit: Business Insider

From the ‘They’d never do this here‘ files, yes they would.

Malaysia on Monday approved a law against “fake news” that would allow for prison of up to six years for offenders, shrugging off critics who say it was aimed at curbing dissent and free speech ahead of a general election.

And yes, this is always an imposition to silence political dissent the ruling class doesn’t want shared. Always.

Rewind: Trump’s Polling A Month Before the 2016 Election

Will This Legislation End Statewide Assessment Tyranny?

Broken PencilStudent testing, statewide testing, has been an issue for years. Parents can opt their children out of these tests, and there is ample support for this right. But administrators obsessed with participation rates have no legal disincentives.

“…school districts and administrators are getting more aggressive with parents and children who do not participate in the statewide assessments. Examples of intimidation and harassment have been documented across the Granite State.”

Even the Republicans are LYING about the Paid Family Medical Leave (HB628)

HB628 killing the NH AdvantageIn addition to checking the verbiage of a new bill, always check the “Fiscal Note” part of the analysis – how much is this going to cost tax payers. I long ago posted what the Medicaid Expansion was eventually going to cost us as Obamacare is wound down. And now, the NH GOP elected officials in the House and Senate are basically legislating a close form of Obamacare’s Individual Mandate for this Paid Family Leave Act – you WILL be mandated to participate and your wages will be docked if you don’t know how to opt-out (and the bureaucratic nonsense that will be involved) – HB628 is going to do the same thing. Three things:

  1. It is being presented as something that is NEEDED to attract younger workers and families
  2. It is completely being marketed as self-paying
  3. It is being LIED about in that the State of NH is saying that there are no Free Market alternatives or offerings

My rebuttal:
