Behold – they all hate “involved” parents influence of their children:

A spokeswoman for the Planned Parenthood affiliate in Alaska is criticizing the state’s new sex education restrictions that require the curriculum to be approved by local school districts and open to review by parents.

Planned Parenthood Votes Northwest and Hawaii spokeswoman Jessica Cier said the legislation — which is becoming law without Gov. Bill Walker’s signature — is a “crushing blow for comprehensive and medically accurate sexual health education” because it will invite considerable scrutiny of the curriculum by parents and local boards of education.

Like I’ve said before, who owns my children?  According to Cier, it ain’t me and it ain’t you.  And look at that Progressive rail about Power being decentralized – why, how DARE they?  And don’t those local BoEs and parents just KNOW they are absolute rubes that that know nothing?  WE is the experts!

Recently it was reported that the Concord Monitor refused to allow their reporter, Nick Reid, to testify in court in Democrat operative Carl Gibson’s voter fraud case. They claimed it was a First Amendment right that Reid not testify even though Reid was the one who discovered that it was Gibson who sent a hoax email during Yvonne Dean-Bailey’s election back in 2014. Ironically, a majority of the articles have disappeared from the Monitor’s website.

One of the frauds attempted during the Democrat Convention is that Democrats want to reduce gun violence in America.  While I’m sure most Democrats consider themselves anti-violence, the party they support is the party of violence.  Democrat politicians and leaders, excuse, encourage, and use violence, successfully, to advance its political objectives.

While the sympathy displayed for the victims of gun violence and their families may have been sincere, the Democrat Party leadership willingly sacrifices people in their quest for power.  Democrat Party policies make America more violent, make law-abiding Americans more vulnerable to criminals and terrorists, and use violence to get support for, or at least acceptance of, their policies.

That last phrase courtesy of Glenn Reynolds at Instapundit.  We talked briefly about this state of affairs of the so-called “Press” and their utter contempt towards Republicans and then, Conservatives and Libertarians (Do NOT confuse the latter two groups with the first – I posit that fewer and fewer Republicans are Conservatives (even as they all call themselves that) and can’t stand Libertarians).

This is an example of their “byline” activity.

Two weeks ago at the Republican National Convention (RNC) a grieving mother blasted Hillary Clinton for the debacle of the 2012 Benghazi attack. Last Thursday, at the Democratic National Convention (DNC), grieving parents gave a speech criticizing Donald Trump for his statements against Muslims.

While all the grieving parents deserve sympathy, the Big Three (ABC, CBS, NBC) network evening and morning shows seemed to only care about the parents that showed up at the Democratic Convention. Khizr Khan and his wife Ghazla’s DNC appearance earned 55 minutes, 13 seconds of Big Three network coverage, nearly 50 times more than Pat Smith, whose RNC speech honoring her son earned just 70 seconds of airtime.

“The question we ask today is not whether our government is too big or too small, but whether it works — whether it helps families find jobs at a decent wage, care they can afford, a retirement that is dignified.” – President Obama, Inauguration (2009)

No, no about climate change this time.  No, it’s not about food and what the government keeps telling us what’s good for us and what’s not (butter bad…no good….fats bad….fats good….carbs good….carbs bad….sheesh).  But now it is flipping on the stuff they said we were supposed to do IF we were eating good or bad (reformatted, emphasis mine):

It’s one of the most universal recommendations in all of public health: Floss daily to prevent gum disease and cavities. Except there’s little proof that flossing works. The federal government has recommended flossing since 1979, first in a surgeon general’s report and later in the Dietary Guidelines for Americans issued every five years. The guidelines must be based on scientific evidence, under the law.

Scientific evidence, the hidey-hole of Progressives that maintain their ideology IS settled science..but!

On Friday it was reported by NHPR that New Hampshire’s useless Attorney General Joe Foster filed an amicus brief supporting Obama’s transgender ‘guidance’ to allow males who have gender identity issues to use female bathrooms, changing rooms and locker rooms and vice versa. The problem is that the majority of Granite Staters are absolutely against these new rules being handed down from the federal government.
