The debates are contentious, with the results typically favoring the majority. When Democrats in the Texas legislature fled their state to avoid a … Read more

This week, I’ve got a story about the Associated Press and a so-called image licensing watchdog that was let off its leash (if it ever had one) and is trying to extort me, perhaps legally, but this has shakedown written all over it. Please use this link and donate. If you prefer to give by … Read more
A Letter to Nashua’s Ward 8 Constituents I am writing to you today as a concerned citizen and an active participant in our city’s legislative process.

I have some good news and some bad news regarding library legislation proposed here in New Hampshire this year. First, the bad news: a bill that would have prohibited obscene materials in public school libraries (HB324) was vetoed by Governor Kelly Ayotte last month. But here’s the good news: the governor did sign a bill … Read more
There is a voting rights suit moving up and down the judicial ladder in the Granite State. No, it’s not the typical left-wing, ACLU, students who can vote in other states should be allowed to vote here kind of thing. This one has already been to the State Supreme Court, back to the lower court, … Read more
A small group of residents in Hollis, NH, has been reviewing the town’s voter rolls and believes they may be overinflated. NH RSA wants voter rolls to be within 0 to 5% tolerance of error and we felt they were not based on our group doing some sampling of names. After conducting further research, we … Read more

On August 4th, I stood before Nashua’s Personnel and Administrative Affairs Committee to comment on a proposed ordinance that would conditionally ban signs, banners, and flags in the Aldermanic Chamber. I came with three 8.5” x 11” paper signs to test whether the City’s rule would be enforced fairly, or selectively. The signs were silent. … Read more
Delusions of grandeur are high on the diagnostic checklist for Narcissism. Just look at the DSM-3-R or any other authority on such matters. Former Rep Ming has shown similar behaviors during last year’s campaign season, such as claiming to be the first Asian rep when it simply wasn’t true. Now he’s outdone himself in his … Read more
This isn’t a fluff piece about menacing mutts—it’s a demand for justice. When dangerous dogs hurt people, it’s not a neighborly dog problem—it’s a community safety issue ripe for the New Hampshire Legislature to own up to. 1. Current Law Doesn’t Cut It: Civil Only? Not Enough Under RSA 466:19, New Hampshire imposes strict civil liability … Read more
Not so many years ago, it was a natural progression to graduate from high school, enter the military or college, get married, buy a house, have children, and roll the dice that all worked out. You had a rewarding life, with a comfortable retirement. It was all part of the American Dream that was still … Read more
Illegal Alien Drivers’ Licenses No Good in New Hampshire Kelly Ayotte just made it crystal clear: if you’re in this country illegally and holding one of those feel-good, law-dodging licenses from Vermont or California, you better keep on driving, right out of New Hampshire.

If you thought New Hampshire politics couldn’t get any messier, buckle up, because the Hantz Marconi case is proving that the state’s so-called “justice” system is less Lady Justice and more Jerry Springer.

HB 377 – Relative to health care professionals administering hormone treatments and puberty blockers. HB 712 – Limiting breast surgeries for minors.

It is not just incompetence or confusion, but the deliberate *channeling of power, privilege, and money* toward insiders while the rest of us foot the bill and fight over scraps. Whether it’s Claremont’s local swamp or the DNC’s national machine, the pattern is the same. You want to clean it up? You start by pulling … Read more
How a City Government Lost Its Mind, Its Grip, and Your Trust Let’s not sugar-coat it, folks: the Claremont city government couldn’t manage a lemonade stand, let alone a tax incentive program like RSA 79-E.

Some readers are already familiar with my most recent article, “The Future of Nashua’s Library,” which highlights a public comment opportunity on August 6.
