As Steve laid out here and here, we have an Uber-GunGrabber now in deep sneakers: Democrat Leland Yee has been indicted for gun running. Yup, gun running – he may be against “gun violence” here in the US but two-facedly has no qualms about making a profit from “gun violence” somewhere else. It is stunning, … Read more

From the acclaim of hundreds of thousands in stadium settings to a lonely clap; I don’t think that I have EVER seen a US President give a speech or a joint presser only get a single person clapping. Slowly. And everyone else just wanting to get out of the area. I watched it several times … Read more
Leland Yee deserves the coverage he has gotten here and elsewhere because he is a typical ruling class Democrat. “We” must have laws that limit you, but I can do whatever the hell I want. And it appears he did. Bribery. Influence peddling. There’s a hint of drug trafficking in there, and of course gun-running. … Read more
Can someone point me to the sections in the NH Republican Party Platform that support Obamacare, Common Core, excessive gas taxes, gun regulation, and are anti Right to Work? If not, can someone please forward the platform to the Republican Reps and Senators that voted for such legislation? Also from Aaron… “Had great meetings in … Read more
The NH State Senate has passed a hike in the gas tax which is guaranteed to pass through the NH House like s**t through a goose. This will extract an estimated 32 million dollars out of the New Hampshire economy, affecting tourism, jobs, and wages. So as we approach November, in a year expected to … Read more
More evidence that the Orange One needs to be removed. From TheDC (all emphasis mine).
Some conservatives were up in arms over a hurried Thursday vote on the so-called “doc fix” for Medicare, which some felt leadership tried to slip by them, after it passed in a thirty-second voice vote with very few members on the House floor.
By its own definition the Southern Poverty Law Center has always been a hate group. One it excluded from its own list of so-called hate groups. A list that was nothing more than a ledger to which the Haters at the SPLC added whomever they ideologically disagreed–or with whom their benefactors disagreed.
Whether the list was ever meant to be anything other than a dark corner to segregate ideological enemies in is open to debate but that is what is has become.

More of Oblunder’s faux toughness on display. The other day he was preaching to the Western Europeans about Gay Rights, yeah that’s tough, real courageous. Kind of like preaching the wonders and merits of a meatless diet to a flock of vegetarians. Big man. Let’s see you use those Brunswick 16’s you swing around the … Read more
I have considered shooting video of me fertilizing ‘my lawn.’ It would encompass a camera recording me as I walk a spreader across the yard, with little green and off-white pellets skittering across the top of a 12 inch pack of ice and snow. Fertilizer is kind of expensive, though, and I don’t feel like … Read more
In the end, that is: (H/T: The Blaze)
The questions is: will the American Public hold him responsible for the riches promised but not delivered? Who will be held accountable? What was promised, enjoying a robust rip-roaring economy if we just followed Obama’s proscriptions and policies, have delivered less than half than “better future to come”. Remember, he and his accomplicies decided that … Read more
Now, I wait all summer for February as I do prefer the colder weather. However, I have had it – enough! . Here in NH, it has been downright all winter long – it got cold and stayed cold. ALL winter time. I can’t remember the last time that we had single digit temps in the … Read more
“Patience is power. Patience is not an absence of action; rather it is “timing” it waits on the right time to act, for the right principles and in the right way.” ? Fulton J. Sheen
Senate Bill 244 began as a bill sponsored by Democratic Senator David Watters. The bill established all sorts of confusing and ambiguous provisions to submit names of the “mentally ill” to the exclusionary provisions of NICS. Additionally, the bill was purported to deal due process provisions for the removal of ones’ name from the NICS exclusion list. Actually, As of this day, there are few who can truly articulate…succinctly…what the bill now accomplishes in the wake of the numerous amendments….so numerous folks have lost count. Summarily, I cannot tell readers factually what the gist of the bill is because as I write this, amendments still abound.
Bill Barry took to the pages of the Union Leader today to advocate for SB244. In the UL, Barry writes,
In segment Four long time Grok friend Pete Ingemi, Da Tech Guy on Da Radio, joins us to talk about the Northeast Republican Leadership Conference, and of course the Elephant in the room – the Scott Brown candidacy. Is he right for New Hampshire? Will a Scott Brown primary-win suppress the down-ticket base vote … Read more
Chuck Schumer’s shield law is meant to protect journalists from being dragged into court or intimidated by the legal system into giving up their confidential sources (among other things). In reality, this is nothing more than the closing chapter of a ‘drama’ by which Democrats create statute that allows the government to define who gets … Read more
My kids watch a lot of anime and ‘those with power’ often have more than one form. That means they have a final form. For elected Democrats, that final form increasingly appears to be one where they are being led away in handcuffs. Mayor Patrick Cannon, a 47-year-old Democrat who rose from the city’s public … Read more

The affidavit charges that the $2 million worth of weapons to have been secreted into the country from the Philippines included rocket launchers and machine guns, some of which Yee himself had fired while on Mindanao.
