Portions of Democrat states like Minnesota have been increasingly in play. Places the left saw as reliable are not. And while we may be adding a number of large urban areas (or even all of New York State where Trump is only down by as few as 5 points), classic blue-collar towns are choosing Donald Trump.
A victory for liberty, or the judiciary?
After reading Norm Silber’s piece, A Small Victory for Liberty, I want to make sure I’ve got this straight. Previously, the judiciary ruled that its ability to control its internal procedures allowed it to violate the fundamental constitutional right to keep and bear arms by forbidding people from bringing guns into courtrooms. The Speaker argued … Read more
GraniteGrok.com Endorses Karen Testerman for Governor of New Hampshire
As a matter of principle, we find ourselves faced with this question. Given the opportunity to advance the message of freedom in the face of what we see as an assault on citizens’ rights, do we sit on our hands or make a case for individual liberty?
A Back and Forth that Seems a Bit Sordid, and Needs Sorting Out
I would like to talk about the Executive Council and the District 5 primary race in particular. I am a proud, but relatively recent Granite Stater (6 years). If I had known about the free state project, I would have signed up before moving, having originally taken a job in Maskachussetts only after confirming I could handle the commute from up here in America.
“Here’s How Your Children Are Getting Indoctrinated by Leftist Ideology.”
This post by Doug Blair has been popping up in a number of places and I first found it at The Daily Signal. The days of the teacher, a wooden desk, a blackboard, and apple are long gone. We’ve posted examples of this indoctrination regime in the past – more of “higher Ed” than the lower grades.
Facts are stubborn things…….
So, Dave Wheeler and his acolytes seem to have convinced some NH folks that former Senator Bob Clegg, Wheeler’s opponent in the Executive Council 5 race, gave unilateral, dictatorial powers to whoever was sitting in the corner office when and if disaster struck when he sponsored HB 1461 following the 9-11 attacks on the United States.
Does the Left really understand what the French Revolution was about?
The Left is doing the provoking for a hot civil war, constantly probing and taking it to a hot Civil War. The guillotine is replacing the upraised Socialist fist that the Black Lives Matter movement has taken for its own (why not – its founders are self-proclaimed “trained Marxists”).
Technology, Society, Cyber-Culture, Privacy and Constitutions
Since well before we eagerly leapt into the world of technology, we gave very little thought to the possibility that someday we would find ourselves at a perilous fork in the road as a society, culture, and country.
LibertyBallot.com No Longer Promotes Liberty
When incumbent Governor Sununu went off the rails in March and suspended our Constitution and Bill of Rights, many liberty folks became seriously concerned. Sununu used unconstitutional powers “granted” him by the legislature in RSA 4:45 to destroy our economy.
“Now do Jeff Woodburn”
Bob Forsythe is a Republican NH State Rep that has a number of charges against him including domestic violence. For the last few days, the political establishment on both sides of the aisle has been calling for him to resign even as he was running for re-election. Yesterday, he did.
Pre-Primary Poll: Republican Nomination for Governor of New Hampshire
With the New Hampshire primary just ten days away it’s crunch time. Candidates are rolling out last-minute endorsements and pimping their political “wares.” One of those contests is to determine the Republican nominee for Governor of NH. Some say, what’s the point? I’m happy to explain.
Who Won Our Pre-Primary Poll for New Hampshire Exec. Council Dist 5?
The New Hampshire Republican Primary is on September 9th 8th, just over a week away. Between now and then, we plan to do a series of polls for significant or highly contested races. The first was Executive Council District five. The candidates are Bob Clegg and Dave Wheeler. So, who won the first Grok Pre-Primary Poll?
If You Want Trump Gone – Think About This
If you like the polished, professional, presentation of the Republican National Convention over the last few nights, you might be in luck. The RNC television production is what Trump TV will look like one day, after he is no longer President of the United States.
California or Bust … and Go Broke
California or Bust … and Go Broke. The Okies had it pretty much right. Today in the Golden State, 341,000 state and local government employees earn more than $100,000 in salary or pension payments. The statistics in this post come from OpenTheBooks.com and their article in RealClear Politics. Don’t worry; the HEROES Act will bail … Read more
New Hampshire’s Republican-Committeeman Chris Ager and Wife Accosted by BlackLivesMatter “Protesters” After Leaving Republican Convention … Silence From Sununu
Steve posted on this earlier. As did Michael Graham on “Inside Sources”. Here is the video (the second one): The Agers were not the only victims of the Black Lives Matter mob. Senator Rand Paul and his wife barely escaped: #WalkAway founder Brandon Straka was also a victim: As were many, many, many others. One … Read more
Socialism is Based on Greed – Capitalism is Based on Serving Others
Capitalism is based on one and only one thing – serving others. Capitalism, or you as a capitalist, cannot succeed unless you are serving customers’ needs or wants. Period.
Democrat National Committee Panelist – Our Aim is the Destruction of Capitalism
No longer does the question “What is the difference between a Democrat and a Socialist” have any relevance. There are none. One only has to understand what the Black Lives Matters movement has openly said about Capitalism and that the three founders are “trained Marxist.”
NH Dem Timothy Horrigan Tells Massachusetts They Should Tax Remote NH Workers
Timothy Horrigan is a staple of the New Hampshire Democrat Party. He’s been around a while, held numerous offices, and every now and then says something fascinating. Maybe more often than that, but often enough that we hear about it.
Cornerstone Throws Founder Karen Testerman Under the Bus
Earlier this summer NH Cornerstone Policy Research sent out candidate surveys to all state candidates, including Karen Testerman, who is running for Governor.
Personal Endorsement: Karen Testerman for Governor
Chalk me up as supporting Karen Testerman for Governor. Seems like I have known her forever. Lots of people run for office. I meet them every election cycle. Some are for real many just show up out of nowhere and ask for your support.
