Amazingly, the colleges and universities where you think you would find the brightest thinkers of the next generation of leaders are dens of lemmings. Columbia, Yale, MIT, and Emerson College are some of these schools.
The Next Hottest Summer Ever Update
If the corporate media says it, the odds are good that it is misleading, an incomplete ‘truth,’ or a lie. But because they are so politically driven in their choices and coverage, you can almost glean the truth based on how hyperbolic their response is or how narrow their focus is.
Subsidies for Me, But Not for Thee
A recent post argued that NH taxpayers shouldn’t be ‘forced to fund irreversible surgeries for gender-confused kids.’
While I agree with that, I would note that Article 3 of the state constitution says that NH taxpayers can’t be forced to fund anything that doesn’t directly protect the rights of the people paying the taxes.
Night Cap: Hey Joe, Did You Ditch Bidenomics
Joe Biden was on a three-city tour of Pennsylvania this week. He started in his hometown of Scranton, though I am not sure many in Scranton want to claim Joe as one of their own. You see, for all Joe says he is doing for his homeys, his lousy policies are costing the good people … Read more
Help Stop State-Sanctioned Suicide
Quick reminder that tomorrow (Wed @ 10am) is the Senate Committee hearing for HB1283, a bill to legalize assisted suicide. It will be in NH’s Legislative Office Building, room 103 (note room change from earlier).
Massachusetts Is “Going After Everybody Who Has Money.”
It is unusual for a Democrat or uniparty stooge to say the quiet part out loud, but this isn’t new to Massachusetts. David Ismay, Charlie Baker’s undersecretary for Climate change (can’t be much of a ‘republican’ Gov. if you have one of those – and he wasn’t), said openly that they need to put the screws to everyone in the name of climate change.
Last Chance to Save the Soul of the Nation
The presidential campaign of 2008 marked a turning point in America.
Millions of voters were electrified by the prospect of the first African-American president. Even one of Barack Obama’s opposing candidates seemed mesmerized by the moment: “I mean, you’ve got the first sort of mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy.
Democrat Supermajority Has No Interest in Solving the Property Tax Mess They Made
Democrats in the State House were parading around this week with a banner insisting, “If you make a mess, you clean it up!” Yeah! Big talk! They think this should apply to oil companies regarding climate change (another story I’ll get to soon), but apply that message to themselves regarding the colossal property tax tsunami of a mess they’ve made for us. Well, not so much.
Food For Thought on Schooling
I just thought of something: how about testing when starting school? Then Some kids may start in 1st grade and some may start in 2nd grade or even third. Then every year they take their “Proficiency Test” as long as they test to the next grade off they go, if not they get held back. If they test ahead of their class again, they could skip a grade again if the parents agree.
Does Hate Really Have No Home in Goffstown?
If you’ve driven through any part of Goffstown or Pinardville, you may have seen the “Hate has no home in Goffstown” signs. At first glance, they seem well-intentioned and a wonderful idea. But upon further investigation, they are actually breeding much hate and division within the community.
Pay No Attention to the Man Behind the Curtain!
As the 2024 election season gets underway in earnest (although it has actually been going on for quite some time already), it is probably useful to look behind the curtain of (a) political “consultants” and (b) political contributions through organized groups.
G.E.T. R.E.A.L! T: Transportation Infrastructure (AKA Fix the Roads!)
G.E.T. R.E.A.L. is a solemn promise and a positive path forward for our state by Vermont Republicans focused on improving the quality of life of our people. It is a prescription of policy proposals, and this is the fourth in a series of essays explaining the program.
Congress Is A Disgrace
Here is a sure way to know when you have yet again been screwed by Congress. The corporate-media “covers” the screwing as “bipartisan” and UniParty-Republicans are “courageous” for ignoring the voters who put them there and instead “doing the right thing,” a lovely euphemism for what enriches the elites/globalists/corporatists/etc..
5 Incredible Retirement Gift Ideas for Long Term Employees
After decades of hard work and dedication, long term employees deserve special recognition and gifts upon their retirement. Coming up with retirement gift ideas for loyal, longtime workers can be challenging. Here are five incredible ideas to make your retiring employee feel valued and appreciated.
Night Cap: Assisted Suicide Will Start Out Well-Meaning, Then Gradually Revert To its Eugenic Roots
There is ample evidence throughout history, much of it recent, that claiming compassion to justify government-sanctioned suicide is a trap. Yes, chronic pain is terrible, but not nearly so much as the power of a State that inevitably sees it as a way to solve problems it created or just “problems.”
Carson, Gannon & Abbas Need to be Primaried. Here’s Why.
Let me start by saying something nice about all three Senate Judiciary Republicans. They’re all nice people and presumably decent people in their personal lives. I’ve had pleasant encounters with them, some leading to pleasant talk, sometimes more than once.
Elections Have Consequences: “Really, at this point in the game, they should all just say it out loud”
From the Editor: The phrase “elections have consequences” is not new, but Nashua resident Allison Dyer has made it her tagline, ending her Rumble videos with the words after sharing what can only be called evidence supporting the truth of those words.
HB1002 – Are We Punishing Everyone for The Behavior of a Few or Limiting Access to the Wealthy and Well-Connected? (Both!)
The Republican majority of the New Hampshire Legislature is on the verge of doing what Democrats do. Punish everyone for the alleged bad behavior of a few. Assuming the few are truly being cantankerous in their pursuit of public records. It is reminiscent of most, if not all, Left-Wing gun-grabbing legislation.
Sorry, Bitter-Clingers … The UniParty Is Real, And In New Hampshire
Alright. Altogether now: Republicans … GOOD. Democrats … BAD. Republicans … GOOD. Democrats … Bad. Louder. Louder. Republicans … GOOD. Democrats … BAD. Republicans … GOOD. Democrats … Bad.
Oppose HB1283 – The So-Called “End of Life Options” Bill
As the mother and primary caregiver for two adult sons with significant disability, the legally responsible daughter for my 87-yo mom suffering from the early stages of Alzheimer’s, and the widow to my husband, who lost his battle with pulmonary disease back in 2012, I’d like to give my perspective on HB 1283 Assisted Suicide.
