Most people understand the limitations of their homes before sending out invitations. If you have seating at the table for 10, you do not invite 16; if you only have one spare bedroom that sleeps 2, you don’t invite 8. That is basic and falls under the strained category of common sense. Unfortunately, like reading … Read more
Maine is a beautiful state, blessed by God with a long and rocky shore with the Atlantic, incredible mountains for hikers and skiers, inland lakes for boaters, and a plethora of woodlands for campers.

On a cold, windy Sunday in March, hundreds of people, many festooned in rainbow garb, rallied on the Cumberland Commons, across the street from the Greeley Schools, in support of transgender athletes in girls’ sports. On the surface, you might say this was an impressive turnout for a worthy cause, except it is far from … Read more
The Democrats are now the Party of Haters and Destructors. There is nothing they stand for other than being anti-Trump. They have no policies or legislation to counter the MAGA initiative. Their stand is the opposite of whatever Trump and the Republicans push for the American people. The Trump haters do not understand a politician … Read more
Like their counterparts in Washington, the Democrats in Augusta are digging themselves a hole they may not escape for years. Through bad legislation and decision-making, they have taken a budget surplus they inherited and squandered it into a significant deficit.

According to a statement from the … Read more
While I agree with the late Tom Anderson, who said with a distinct Southern drawl, “Debating a liberal is as futile as putting talcum powder on a hog,” I occasionally do so. Not that I think that my reason and logic will change the mind of a liberal, but for others who may be reading or listening. … Read more
Maine Gov. Janet Mills emerged from seclusion on Monday to address corporate media reporters for the first time since she and her Chief of Staff Jeremy Kennedy put on a petulant and embarrassing display in Washington, DC.

Governor Janet Mills and House Speaker Ryan Fecteau are in over their heads. They are small-time actors trying to play a big-time game, and the two stunts they pulled this week indicate that this will not end well for these power-wannabes. They think they have made scores against the Republicans, but all they have done … Read more
Oh, Janet, I can tell by your actions of late that you are a bit confused about your role. You were able to parlay your political career to a seat in the corner office in Augusta, but that seat comes with responsibility, not privilege, as you see it. There are 1.4 million people in Maine, … Read more
Maine has not lost its way. Maine has lost its collective mind. I am speaking of the Democrats in Maine, but they are the ruling party today, and it was the voters of Maine that gave them the power to manipulate and control the state. Unless you reside under a rock, you must know how … Read more
For four years, millions of illegal and unvetted people came from all over the globe to our southern border that Biden had replaced with a welcome mat. These illegal migrants (they became illegal the moment they crossed the Rio Grande and violated our sovereignty) are not all bad people, but they tried to come to … Read more
The sun rises, the water is wet, and just like guns, Democrats hate nullification until they love it. Dems love guns as long as they control whoever controls the guns.
