The “Big Switch” myth is something the Democrats and Progressives repeat over and over again in an attempt to rinse themselves of their rancid racist history. No doubt you heard it. It goes basically like this: Yes, yes, the Democrats were racist before 196o’s–what with all their votes against anti-lynching laws and the KKK teeming … Read more

The Concord Monitor had this little piece on the rise of gonorrhea in NH. Now, this was posted by their resident “geek”, David Brooks, and he had a bit of narrative along with his conclusion.
And he’s wrong. No, not about the chart – I’ll take that as a given – but his reasoning doesn’t stand up (reformatted, emphasis mine).
Maggie Hassan sent a press release that attempts to highlight her “Priorities for Women and Families” before Women’s Equality Day on Friday. Hassan makes her usual false claims that she’s essentially been making year after year after year. She never does follow through and she continues to patronize women and demean them by treating them as if they are unintelligent with her lies.
Larry Cleveland (who is on a mission to save Rindge, NH), writing in the Keene Sentinel, observes that Rep. Susan Emerson’s ‘recent record’ is not conservative. It’s not. After her second term, she went native.
Larry has made a note of this and said as much and Emerson, who is incapable of accepting criticism, doesn’t care for Larry’s accounting.
According to the website House Republican Alliance (nhhra.org), her rating in 2008 was at 100 percent. I supported her then, and voted for her. In 2012, her rating got as low as 37 percent. Now, in 2016, it is 48.1 percent. This means she votes against the party platform 51.9 percent of the time. Maybe more important is her attendance.
The enrichment [of the modern world] came mainly from bourgeois liberty and creativity unbridled, not from piling up constraints on voluntary deals or from redistributing what income we get from the deals. Wages and working conditions, after such shocking enrichment, are in fact determined largely by supply and demand, not by regulations passed by Congress … Read more

Jim Lawrence was at a “meet and greet” last week in Hudson, New Hampshire when he was asked a question about the issue of Medical Marijuana card holders losing their 2ndAmendment rights. Lawrence is a candidate running in the Republican primary for the 2ndCongressional District seat that is currently held by Democrat Annie Kuster. Lawrence discussed this and many other topics at the event, held at the home of Senator Bob Clegg.

Bruce is 40. He was using the Grindr App. The students were boys (you have to read way … Read more
Maggie Hassan’s role model has been exposed again for more pay-to-play corruption while Sec-o-State.
Hillary’s State Department fast-tracked a $10 million dollar government loan to a Clinton Foundation donor to build homes in Haiti. The donor used your money to prop up other scams. Not one home was built.
The bigger story is that, despite Osorio’s shady history, it appears that the Clinton State Department helped him get $10 million—which will never be repaid—because he was a Clinton Foundation donor. This connection was not made until years after Osorio got sentenced. After his 2013 sentencing in Miami, the area’s largest newspaper tied him to the Clintons and President Obama as a campaign donor who held fundraisers at his waterfront home, but the foundation was not mentioned.
What does the Fort Hood shooter, Edward Snowden, Chelsea Manning, and Hillary Clinton have in common? They’re all considered an Insider Threat. What you’re looking at is a “real training slide… to teach best practices for handling classified information” and threats. Insider Threats. You know, like Chelsea Manning and Major Hasan and Edward Snowden and, … Read more
As far as I’m concerned, good! I just happened across this and once again, there seems to be no stone unturned that can’t cause some outrage amongst the the continuously outraged and offended victimologists (re: part of the Democrat identity group coalition that are eternally oppressed by…well….sometimes themselves. But they complain even then).
Why Do Women’s Sports Even Exist?
My, my, there those feminists go, complaining again. This time the whining concerns supposedly “sexist” Olympics coverage. Their problem? Many journalists are, we’re told, using different language when talking about female athletes than when speaking of male ones. Oh, the humanity! There’s the guy who credited a female swimmer’s husband/coach for her success, the talk about a six-foot-three-inch South Korean woman volley ball player’s difficulty finding a boyfriend, and a reporter who called an equestrian rider “blondie.”
I’ll let that go for now. What I hadn’t heard before were a couple of examples that point out that men ARE superior to women in sports (well, if you paid any attention to sports, especially during the Olympics that just ended, you’d already now that men are faster, stronger, quicker, jump higher and longer….it’s simple biology and I guess the feminazis want us all to make these results be like “these are not the droids you are looking for”.
A government-backed bus service for seniors in Sullivan County, New Hampshire, is scheduled to stop running on September 9th because it will run out of money. According to the Union Leader, the ‘non-profit’ needs $775,000.00 a year to stay operational, and in the past money has come primarily from the Feds via the NHDOT and Sullivan County.
To be honest, I’m not sure why the feds are involved. We waste a fortune at the state level that could just as easily be directed toward other programs.
When you do the bidding of the Union Bosses they reward you. Hillary Clinton, Maggie Hassan, Carol Shea-Porter, Ann Kuster, Colin Van Ostern, Shawn Jasper. Republican NH House Speaker Shawn Jasper? Yup!
A Judge has blocked the Obama Administration’s genderless bathroom directive. On Sunday, [Federal Judge Reed] O’Connor ruled that the federal education law, Title IX, “is not ambiguous” about sex being defined as “the biological and anatomical differences between male and female students as determined at their birth.” O’Connor concurred with Texas Republican state leaders who argued … Read more
Theodore Dalrymple has some excellent thoughts on decriminalizing or legalizing drugs and why some ideas don’t seem like they will work because, people!
The philosophic argument is that, in a free society, adults should be permitted to do whatever they please, always provided that they are prepared to take the consequences of their own choices and that they cause no direct harm to others. The locus classicus for this point of view is John Stuart Mill’s famous essay On Liberty: “The only purpose for which power can be rightfully exercised over any member of the community, against his will, is to prevent harm to others,” Mill wrote. “His own good, either physical or moral, is not a sufficient warrant.”
For 2nd straight year, 2 fatal shootings mar Newark’s 24 Hours of Peace effort Those darned citizens – just not willing to go along!

Germany to tell people to stockpile food and water in case of attacks.
For the first time since the end of the Cold War, the German government plans to tell citizens to stockpile food and water in case of an attack or catastrophe, the Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung newspaper reported on Sunday. Germany is currently on high alert after two Islamist attacks and a shooting rampage by a mentally unstable teenager last month. Berlin announced measures earlier this month to spend considerably more on its police and security forces and to create a special unit to counter cyber crime and terrorism.
“The population will be obliged to hold an individual supply of food for ten days,” the newspaper quoted the government’s “Concept for Civil Defence” – which has been prepared by the Interior Ministry – as saying.
Another report states “People will be required to stockpile enough drinking water to last for five days, according to the plan, the paper said.”
I think that “man-made disaster” certainly fits Germany right now – or would that be “Prime Minister-made disaster” be better put seeing that Angela Merkel in deciding to go all open borders to mostly economic, mostly Muslim, mostly ill-educated, and mostly military-aged men. But for 10 days, that’s a long time to shelter in place for an Islamic attack – or are they thinking of a much bigger attack coordinated in lots of locations around the country that would necessitate martial law?
Frankly folks, the old Boy Scout motto “Be Prepared” (I have no idea what it is now since Progressives / Leftists have now infiltrated and taken over that “societal institution” as the Frankfurt School started back in the 1920s) still holds water because you don’t know when, where, or how this “insurance” might be needed….
THE HILL: A tale of two Louisiana disasters and media bias. “A very simple question, if George W. Bush was president right now and playing golf with celebrities in one of the richest zip codes in the country, would the headlines again be everywhere that portray him as insensitive, out-of-touch, even a racist president be the same now as they were 2005? Of course they would. Instead, President Obama continues his vacation that includes fundraising events for Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton and the relative silence is deafening.”
But then again, if Obama was a Republican, would he would be getting the “Media BDS” (Bush Derangement Syndrome”)?
While Oblunder golfs, or at least tries, some 85,000 residents of Louisiana were washed out of their homes by a deluge. As usual he’s apathetic and couldn’t care less. If it doesn’t pay political dividends, it’s not worth his time. But maybe he could figure out a way to golf…hmmm… But hey, it’s not like … Read more
Check out a video taking place at night in a city run by Democrats for over a half a century. This should enlighten the deniers, but it won’t. They’ll make more excuses and ignore the empirical. https://twitter.com/hautedamn/status/766442356233019392 Detroit. It’s what Democrats do!
