Cardello: Are We Going To Be Sucked In Again

I would bet my last dollar that the answer is absolutely. We all want accountability. We know what happened, and all of our assumptions, which we instinctively feel are probably true. Still, we will never see a significant member of the Obama, Hillary, or Biden teams on a perp walk, and there are so many … Read more

De Mayo: Running Silent

The US Navy Submarine Service is also known as “The Silent Service” due to its stealth capabilities of “running silent,” allowing evasion of detection while underway in the world’s oceans. A majority of the Grafton County Commissioners seem to have joined the US Navy Submarine Service by “running silent” on the building of another courthouse. … Read more

Hohensee: Where Have All the Liberty Groups Gone?

No one’s left to defend educational freedom, except for a motley group of independent, unfunded homeschoolers teaching their kids at home. Given that they broke free of centralized control and approvals of their home programs, many have a healthy mistrust of state control over education. Most folks never read, or understood, history. They simply trust … Read more

Cline: How Both Sides Lost the Conval School Funding Case

The New Hampshire Supreme Court for the first time ordered the state to spend a minimum amount of money—$7,356.01 per pupil—to educate public school students.  The state therefore lost this landmark school funding case, Contoocook Valley School District v. State, as it had tried to avoid such a decree. But a closer read suggests that ConVal … Read more

CNHT: Ayotte Signs Away Single Family Neighborhoods

Claiming that it’s part of an effort to mitigate a (non-existent) housing ‘crisis’, Governor Ayotte has signed every single housing bill that made it to her desk, including the very damaging HB577, which eradicates the right of towns to create single-family zones. We are now no better than California. Despite being sent our petition daily … Read more

Mac Donald: Local Ambulance Service Issue Just Got Serious

Last December, we reported on an emergency meeting in Warren, New Hampshire, to discuss the extortion payment being demanded by a local private ambulance service covering Warren and Wenworth.

Underwood: The ConVal Decision Missed the Big Picture

Mark Twain is supposed to have said, “Never argue with an idiot, they will only drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.”   That’s how I feel about the New Hampshire Supreme Court’s decision on the ConVal case (and the Claremont cases, for that matter). Their reasoning is hard to follow, … Read more

Harrington: Vetoes Leave Residents at a Loss

When the people perform the arduous process of creating new state law through government, it works by starting in the State’s House of Representatives. A State Representative introduces the newly suggested law to their State’s House, and it gets voted (in or out) there first. If it gets voted IN through the State’s House of … Read more

Sims: A Missed Opportunity to Protect Women and Girls in New Hampshire

As a woman, athlete, and gymnastics coach dedicated to girls and women, I am disappointed by Governor Kelly Ayotte’s recent veto of House Bill 148, legislation designed to safeguard the rights, safety, and fairness for female athletes and women throughout New Hampshire. This bill was a necessary step toward protecting women’s single-sex spaces—ranging from locker … Read more

MacDonald: Americans Will Pick Berries

It’s been a while since I last wrote about the goings-on in my backyard. It’s usually wildlife or ticks or something. Last year, we had a lot of birds; this year, not so many, but the Catbird is still here. We’ve got more bunnies, which is what happens when you find you’ve got at least … Read more
