“It appears that with the deadline for exile come and gone, Saddam Hussein has chosen to make military force the ultimate weapons inspections enforcement mechanism,” …“If so, the only exit strategy is victory. This is our common mission and the world’s cause. We’re in this together. We want to complete the mission while safeguarding our … Read more
I disagree with the job creation number in the post (150,000 / month) needed to keep up with population expansion as the numbers I have read vary from 200,00 at a minimum up to 300,000. But even at 150K, this ought to be a very sobering number that shows how poorly the Obama Administration has … Read more
In the final Segment Skip, Mike, Ed and Steve set the squirrels loose in an open format discussion that touches on Poland’s debt crisis and their decision to confiscate pensions so they can buy more debt; how the US is likley to play a similar hand to deal with its likely fiscal collapse; Cloward Piven; … Read more
Corruption exists – we often look at Illinois (Governors there), Massachuesetts (Hmm, Speakers of the House, Representatives); and of, the State of Huey Long (Louisiana). But in looking at this chart, based on the number of public officials jailed per 100,000 residents, who’da thunk that both North and South Dakota were hotbeds of public … Read more
I’ve said for years that the phrase “Determined Weakness” has been the hallmark of Obama’s intentions from from the get go. His view of his mission to “make this America better” is actually to make it weaker. Look at the results of his domestic policies (and not his words or “intent”):
High unemployment still
Worst labor participation percentage ever
Putting the Welfare State growth on steroids
Debt has soared $7 Trillion
Unconstitutional and illegal (as ruled by several courts) actions
Attempts to redefine the meanings of the plain language of the Constitution
The use of Government for retribution for identity groups that oppose him (Christians, TEA Party, Conservatives)
We can add the Vehicle Production Group (VPG) to the long list of central planning failures by the Federal government, proof again that national control is a recipe for waste, fraud, and abuse with your hard earned dollars.
You’ve probably heard of Soyndra ($500 million), Fisker ($192 Million), and there are dozens of others. Well add VPG who have defaulted on a paltry $50,000,000.00 dollar Green energy loan, money that will never pave a road or help a child learn to read or heal the sick or hungry, or be spent by the person who actually earned it, on useful products or services that would have kept a real business in business and employing people in real jobs we actually need.
To many Organizing for Acorn types (OFA) the day after election day in the Granite State is like an exorcism. It removes their “presence,” leaving behind only their names on checklists next to the addresses of prominent state Democrats or employee at the AG’s office, or are those sort-of/kind-of the same thing?
These names can linger for years despite efforts to cleanse them with stagecraft passed off as ritual purges, clinging to their tenuous hold on our ballot boxes…just in case they need to be summoned back to stuff them.
And we now know the media is aligned with the Democrat party and the NH AG’s office to direct traffic past the car-wreck that is New Hampshire Election law.
From Prager University: Why did America invade Iraq in 2003? The decision was controversial, but the reason was both clear and compelling. Renowned British historian, Andrew Roberts, explains. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=yi7RUO93dOI
Suddenly, and without warning, a secret diary pops up in the New York press and an irresistible young Robert F. Kennedy has some explaining to do.
I imagine the dust from his personal “hit” list of female Democrat sexual conquests will take longer than 2016 to settle down.
Wouldn’t you say?
I scanned the chatter about the secret Kennedy diary and found something interesting. Sure, Al Sharpton and Baby Daddy Jackson get slammed, along with Andrew Cuomo. Republicans are all stupid, foolish, etc, etc, Alinsky – you expect that from a Kennedy. And Bill Clinton himself is mentioned, but no slant was given as of yet.
The Groksters get serious over Syria, Libya, and the Middle Eastern fallout of the Obama Administrations foreign Policy–if policy is the right word, then segue into a new (old) parody ad that address a very real truth: the demonization by the left of anyone who does not or will not toe their progressive lie line.
Ellen Kolb joins us to discuss the upcoming Cornerstone event on Common Core at St. Anselms (Sept 17th) then talks about what Democrats (and Democrat Care) are doing to New Hampshire. The conversation shifts necessarily to fascism, corporatism, and a sole provider trying to survive the burden of central planners from DC.
Ed Naile fills in for the third segment with an update on the hot topic of every week; Vote Fraud. We thank the Democrats for uncovering a potetntial Republican whose implicated voting history exacerbates the holes in our current “lack of enforcement” regime. Mike Brown, John DiStaso, Ray Buckley, Neil Kurk, Molly Shaheen, Sebastian Bradley, Melissa Shohet, Martha Fuller Clark, Cindy Rosenwald and others get much needed mention.
In the final Segment we set the squirrels loose in an open format discussion that touches on Poland’s debt crisis and their decision to confiscate pensions so they can buy more debt; how the US is likley to play a similar hand to deal with its likely fiscal collapse; Cloward Piven; Can Federalism save us, Moon Bat Justice Sandra Day O’Conner and the civics void, vouchers, values, and more.
All that and everything else we could squeeze into two hours. It’s not your typical political talk program, it’s GrokTALK!

“[F]or this administration to redeem its credibility now would require a change of direction and method so radical it would be the national equivalent of the comeback of Lazarus: a miraculous revolution in the condition of an individual (President Obama), and a comparable metamorphosis (or a comprehensive replacement) of the astonishingly implausible claque around him.” … Read more
I had announced earlier this week that we would have a new PSA on the program but Friday night I came across another one, created in late 2011, that we had never had the opporuntiy to use. So not only did we add it into the rotation, we played it in the middle of segment … Read more
Yes, GrokGear! We’ve heard from a lot of readers “Where can I buy that hat? Can I get a T-Shirt? How about that rugby shirt”? Well, we listened – and spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to best do this. We’re bloggers – not a haberdashery. We’re purveyors of opinion – not cloth and thread. And when I travel to events, the vehicle is full of electronics – not display racks. But we are honored that folks would want to be identified with GraniteGrok, to agree with what we stand for, and to wear our logo(s).
Just as the Bomb Syria campaign was designed to take our eyes off the Benghazi Debacle-gate story, something HAS to be next. How can the Obama media come up with something juicy enough to stop everyone from having half an opinion on us bombing someone who hates the United states for bombing someone who hates … Read more
