This election cycle you have a clear choice. Do you want to be told what to do? Or do you want to be left alone? If you want to be left alone to go about your business with little to no government intrusion into all aspects of your life, then you value freedom.
It is Time to Repeal the Blaine Amendment in New Hampshire
The United States Supreme Court recently issued a ruling in a Maine case (Carson v. Makin) that is another major victory for parents trying to find the education option that best meets the needs of their children.
Is the Laconia Daily Sun in Cahoots with a Democrat Led Consortium of RINOs
I’d like to congratulate the Laconia Daily Sun on their addition of a new advertiser, Citizens for Belknap. No doubt they will be saturating the pages of the Sun in their attack on members of the county delegation. They will focus their smear campaign on members who stand for good government, free of corruption. Having … Read more
Why NH GOP RINOs Exist in 2022
Adversity is the greatest revealer of character. As author Robert McKee once said, “True character is revealed in the choices a human being makes under pressure – the greater the pressure, the deeper the revelation….” Our nation’s Constitution was wisely architected to ensure a God-centered compass for navigation during adverse times full of angst, anger, … Read more
“Citizens For Belknap” – A BIG Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing
I recently happened upon an article about a new Political PAC in Belknap County. Citizens for Belknap is a group of Leftists pretending to care about “Republicans.”
Upper Valley Homeless Hopefuls: Twin Pines
The problem of homelessness in America is plaguing many of its cities. On the west coast from Los Angeles to Seattle, the problem is growing. The southwest has similar issues from Phoenix to Dallas. However, one city has seen a decline in their homeless since developing a coordinated system that is streamlining intake and services … Read more
XIV: How the Fourteenth Amendment Ate the First Ten
I’m going to pimp my husband Ian Underwood’s first published book! If you’ve ever wondered why the government can search you in an airport or why there can be gun laws despite what’s in the 4th and 2nd amendments, if you’ve ever seen 400-page legal tomes and wished you could get the information in one sitting, if you enjoy reading Ian’s ‘Grok posts, this is the book for you.
So Democrat NH House Candidate Justin Borden Just Told Us That Government Comes First in Priority!
The 2022 NH House campaign has really leaped out of the starting block. Already, political signs are sprouting all over for county and State level races and folks are trying to build name recognition. The problem for some is that they are already going for the negative campaign. Like Democrat Justin Borden here, running in … Read more

Woke Rats in Our Midst
The conservative today might be flummoxed by the sudden appearance of all manner of popular society-destroying ideologies that seem to have appeared overnight. Critical Race Theory infecting our schools, Environmental Social Governance (ESG) scores infesting our largest corporations. Mumu-wearing Chief Diversity Officers at most any corporation of size. The insanity of boys calling themselves girls … Read more
Gunstock Area Commission – GAC Meeting Minutes and the Next Legal Review Report
First up are the notes of the non-public hybrid meeting held July 1. Right off the bat, Gary Kiedaisch was called out for acting on his own (again) without the consensus of the rest of the Commission. In reading through a number of the past meeting minutes and putting them together with the information in … Read more
Gunstock Area Commission: Finally, the Elephant in the Room Is Addressed – Part 3
The last video of that meeting (prior ones here and here). The last one, during the second Public Comment session was when Cindy Creteau-Miller, ally of Commissioner Gary Kiadaisch (who, based on my reading of the unredacted legal bills) seemingly spent $110,000 of Gunstock’s money on legal bills on political witchhunts against perceived political opponents … Read more
Gunstock Area Commission: Finally, the Elephant in the Room Is Addressed – Part 2
Yeah, late again. Seems to be par for the course, lately, for me. The first part of the July GAC meeting (6/23) is here and I promised that more was coming. Well, better late than never ESPECIALLY since a new legal report has come out and I’ll get that posted before I head down to … Read more
Democrats, Abandon Ship!
#WalkAway I’ve been saying and writing that what was once the Democratic Party of my youth is no longer that. The Party of Roosevelt and Kennedy is gone, highjacked by Marxist Socialists promoting an anti-American radical agenda, and robbing true Democrats and all Americans of our futures. Proof of this came from the Democratic Mayor … Read more
I Am A Pro-liberty Republican Running For The NH House Representatives
I am Larry Borland from Wolfeboro and I am running on the Republican ticket in the September primary for the New Hampshire House of Representatives for Carroll Co. District 6 (Wolfeboro & Tuftonboro).
Announcement: NH State Rep Mike Sylvia Running for Re-Election: The Truth About Oxygen
In a letter on Tuesday, July 5, 2022 my Democrat opponent for state representative in Belmont did his best to misdirect attention away from the disasters of the Biden administration. While he throws insults at the excellent management of our award-winning county nursing home, he diverts the public eye from the crisis of health care sweeping the … Read more
Misconduct of Supervisor of the Checklist Regis Roy – Electioneering on Duty
From the largest of NH Cities to the smallest of hamlets, corruption happens. Bad things happen – sometimes by accident but more often, on purpose. When Doug and I started GraniteGrok, we often said that “what is happening here is happening in your town (even if a bit different)”. Sure, you may have known your … Read more
Granite Staters Lose Rights When RINOs Run Wild
New Hampshire statesmen have always known our Constitutional Republic is fragile, and we need to stand firm to protect it. Benjamin Franklin said it best: We have “a Republic,” but only “if you can keep it.” Unfortunately, being the first Constitution framed by an American Commonwealth, we now find that our great State is far … Read more
Born Again on the Fourth of July
The United States of America was born of a minority of people overcoming seemingly impossible odds. Serious students of history tell us the founders who fought for their independence from tyrannical governance credited divine intervention throughout the Revolutionary War. Their enemy, the British Empire, boasted the greatest naval and military war machine on earth. The … Read more
I Didn’t Do It, I Have Everyone Else to Blame
Why am I reminded of the song “Cell Block Tango” from the great Broadway and movie musical “Chicago” (where all the lady killers sang and danced to “I didn’t do it, I didn’t do it”) each and every time Joe Biden gives a speech? Biden has decided it’s the responsibility of your local gas station … Read more
