The gift that keeps on giving has given more. I know, how does Representative Jan Schmidt do it? She has taken to Facebook, opened her precious yap, and is now dumbfounded by the response to her sharing “a joke” about crucifying another human being.
Once again, NH Reps want to destroy Parental Authority “for a minor without parental consent.”
NH State Rep. Susan Almy (D) said, “Well, you don’t get to decide what is Constitutional and I don’t get to decide what is Constitutional, the judiciary decides what is Constitutional.” Translation: It ain’t my job, even when drawing up new laws that YOU are subject to, to consider if it is “legal” or not.
Road Usage Fee – an ‘Un’Gas Tax
For decades we have been told to reduce our carbon footprint, reduce emissions, and be better stewards of the environment. It was so important, we were told, that the Government actually subsidized some of these goals. Hybrid cars and high efficiency vehicles (better MPG) were touted as the way forward – and the government would … Read more
DC Delenda Est
Cato famously said in the Roman Senate “Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam.” It’s been shortened to Carthago delenda est. I say, DC Delenda Est. In English it translates plainly to “DC must be defeated.” Today, the US House is voting to impeach the third president in the history of our country. This will be the … Read more
Notable Quote – Gender Dysphoric / Transgender pronouns have gone too far
Emphasis mine: I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: I have no idea why the Republicans are so damned silent on wokeness, including the transgender madness. No doubt about it, the American people have accepted gay marriage and gay rights, broadly. But the Left will not accept this victory in the culture war. … Read more
Comrade Volinsky Shoots at Edelblut to One-Up Feltes
Children be damned, Volinsky wants Edelblut’s scalp. Why? Because he did his job. Also, because Feltes got the first shot in by making the motion to reject the $46 million education grant. So, now Comrade Volinsky shoots at Edelblut to one-up Feltes. Related: Why NH Democrats Didn’t Jump at 46 Million in Federal Grant Money … Read more
Gun Confiscation Battle Could Pit National Guard Against Virginia County Militia
The incoming Democrat majority in the Virginia State legislature has stated intentions to pass gun control confiscation in January to address the Governor’s call for “common-sense public safety laws” — including universal background checks and bans on assault-style weapons and bump stocks. 75 Virginia counties pushed back and preemptively declared themselves Second Amendment sanctuaries in … Read more

Some Science Behind “Sexual Identity” & Calls for Special Protections
There continues to be a lot of discussion and controversy about providing special “protections” for persons who consider themselves, or whose parents may believe them, to be “transgender.” School boards across the state have been encouraged by, among all things, an organization of school boards supported by tax money, and which lobbies the legislature for … Read more

We demand that 2+2 = 5 – “‘Genital preferences’ are transphobic.”
The first time I read this post, I was very confused: gays, lesbians, and gender dysphoric males, gender dysphoric females. Attraction, sex, and epithets thrown all around because the different groups won’t play well with each other. It made my head hurt and I blame the Left for, once again, bastardizing our common language.
Sidenote: I’m tired of having to use the Left’s language in any kind of debate or discussion so I’m no longer going to use transgender. After all, he who controls the language, controls both the ideas, the debates, and the outcomes. So I refuse to play by their rules anymore. Deal with it. Other Conservatives should consider this idea – and then follow suit.
The Guys’ Guide to Politically Correct Gift Giving
In case you missed it, the people who sell the very high end, expensive Peloton exercise bike have been taking heat in recent days over the ad they have run for holiday giving, in which a fictional husband surprises his wife with a gift of a Peloton, with which she is ecstatic. The PC Police … Read more
I guess the Gilford School Board missed this one. Victimized by the NHSBA and the NH ACLU, I guess
“There is nothing in the law that requires schools to follow one practice or another. They have discretion.” Was it on bad advice from the NH School Board association? After all, the NHSBA thought that a mere political subdivision of the State (school board) had authorizing Legislation that gave it the Power (Government has Powers, … Read more
Students Deserve the Best Education Possible
All our state’s students deserve the best education possible, and many people contribute to making that happen. Parents, teachers and school officials are all critical in the effort to educate our kids and help them unlock their potential.

2+2 = 5 “Lies Are Informing Public Policy” The Gilford School Board, as a result of one family’s complaints about their child suffering from gender dysphoria (I’m not going to use the Left’s language anymore if at all possible – you loose the debate right off the bat) and of the passage of NH SB263, … Read more
A $540 million Fee Increase – By a Republican?
You know that we Groksters will call out malice on either side of the aisle when appropriate, and this time it’s a Republican who has earned the spotlight. A representative from one of the most republican districts in New Hampshire has put in two very, very, anti-liberty bills. One of those bills will create a … Read more
Democrats’ campaign ideas never make it in practice
While it’s on my mind I should comment on a couple of letters in the Laconia Daily Sun where the writers lament our failure to buy into their climate change hysteria. Seems they believe all the disaster scenarios produced over the past 20-some years are cascading into reality. Frankly, I do not see it.
The Decline & Fall of The Union Leader- a morality tale as to why print media is dying or is already dead
I used to subscribe to The Union Leader for delivery to my home in Gilford 6 days a week. But not anymore. For two major reasons. First, starting with occasional failures to deliver the paper a couple of years ago, their very frequent failure to deliver their product to my mailbox on a regular basis, … Read more
Waste-to-energy is the solution to the trash problem
