“It’s finished and it’s FAST….so fast its the worlds fastest as approved by Guinness World Records This 600cc monster is the work of hours of shed time working out how to squeeze a sports bike and so wheels into a dodgem shell without making a death trap, but surprisingly in a straight line it’s actually … Read more
“What happens when a 200-ton boulder slides onto the road, completely blocking traffic? Well, absent Paul Bunyan, you have to blow that up, just to show Nature who’s boss. Which is precisely what the Oregon Department of Transportation did yesterday near the small town of Glide. The Oregonian posted video footage of the explosion on … Read more
You know that old political saw: once given an entitlement, it’s almost impossible to take it back. In this case, Obamacare and its real payload, Expanded Medicaid. We’d expect Democrats to defend it – it is THE way to continue to have Government insert itself more and more into the healthcare space. Presto – universal socialized medicine by incremental stealth.
And the Democrats baked this cake:

What floors me is the vigor with which some Republicans,
From The Mark Steyn Show, here’s a SteynPost that starts with Mark’s famous observation on the left’s standard slur – that, when everybody’s Hitler, nobody’s Hitler. By way of illustration, he examines a particularly feeble charge against a Trump counselor. © 2017 Oak Hill Media Inc/Mark Steyn Enterprises (US) Inc. All rights reserved. One of … Read more
“Small businesses employ over 57 million Americans. And yet, the government’s taxes and regulations overwhelmingly favor big businesses at the expense of small ones. Why? Find out in this short video.” Hint: go ask your Democrat Federal office holder why – watch them bend like a pretzal. (H/T: Liberty Unyielding)
“If there is no God, urder isn’t wrong”
Is murder wrong? How do you know? In this video (below), Dennis Prager shows why, unless there is a God who says murder is wrong, believing murder is immoral is, well, just an opinion.
And what happens when entire societies stop believing in God? As Dennis explains, the 20th century provides some tragic answers.
Those societies that have “thrown of” God and religion – how have they fared? Those that have made The State their religion, their God? Not so much. We see that now in the US where being a Christian, whose values are absolute (or supposed to be, anyways), instead of the relativism that Progressives, Socialist, and Cultural Marxists peddle, know what right and wrong are even if they do not practice what they profess.
It speaks for itself – enjoy this at the expense of all those Precious Snowflakes! (H/T: Hollywood in Toto)
“That’s why John Hancock is now synonymous with his signature,” Gorsuch said. “No one remembers who John Hancock was but they know that’s his signature because he wrote his name so bigly — big and boldly.” …”He’s the one paying me the five bucks,” Sasse answered. (H/T: Washington Examiner)
Outside of standard benefits, what benefits should a company offer employees? What are your feelings about employees or clients carrying guns? What are your feelings about safe spaces in challenging work environments? Should “trigger warnings” be issued before we release content for clients or the company that might be considered “controversial”? How do you feel … Read more

I did like this post title as well: Amtrak Train Blasts Waiting New York Commuters With Massive Blast of Global Warming (Video). (H/T: Sploid)
“Virtually everyone agrees that poverty is bad. But not everyone agrees on what should be done about it. In the video that follows, Arthur Brooks, president of the American Enterprise Institute, explains that if we want to help people get out of poverty, there’s really only one way to do it. This ain’t that: “Getting things … Read more
Is this the rise of the Good Ole’ Boy network fighting against those that have brought Big Flashlights to dark corners? Take a listen to this segment from GirardAtLarge with current Windham School Board members Ken Eyring and Tom Murray: In reading Kimberly’s piece, it does seem that there is mischief abounding – and elections are … Read more
Listen to “GT-Flashback March 15th, 2014” on Spreaker. Bill O’Connor from the Strafford County GOP joins us to talk about SABRE PAC and their radio ad. Scott Wilson (CCDL) updates us on gun-rights in Connecticut. And Grok Commenters Allen and Radical Moderate share their thoughts on the air. Originally broadcast March 15th, 2014.
I have a question for voter fraud deniers. It is pretty simple.
On November 8, 2016 a black man entered the Hooksett polling place just as the Hooksett Moderator had announced the polls closed. After some discussion about that issue the Moderator let him vote. He used his Florida driver’s license number, not license, as ID to vote and used the address of 65 Farmer Rd. where he does not reside.
On several occasions the NH AG’s Office has sent a bulletin to all NH election officials telling them that under no conditions is a person to be prevented from registering to vote (see after the jump). The letter was first generated in several elections ago by then Assistant AG Steven LaBonte.
If this voter, Michael LaSean Lewis, had been prevented from voting did he have a case for discrimination against the Town of Hooksett?
Would it be a case of “voter suppression” we hear so much about from Progressives – except this case would have a real person attached to it? Should the NH ACLU take that case?
Or do legal NH voters, as well as lawfully acting election officials, have a
Christina Hoff-Sommers, “the factual feminist” has a good question: “If, for the same work, women only make 77 cents for every dollar a man makes, why don’t businesses hire only women?” In fact, a feminist organization’s own research found that the wage gap is 6.6 cents when factoring in these choices that men and women … Read more
Man, it was downright FREEZING yesterday at the event on the State Capital building’s steps. Sunny, sure – but boy was that wind biting at 8 degrees! First time in my life I’ve been double and triple layered and still had to activate handwarmers in my deep winter mittens. And I wasn’t the only one. With all that, however, there was a hardy band of folks (larger than I thought, given the cold) that came out to celebrate the restoration of an unfettered Constitutional Right:
[Art.] 2-a. [The Bearing of Arms.] All persons have the right to keep and bear arms in defense of themselves, their families, their property and the state.
With the passage of SB12, for the first time since the discriminatory law was passed mid-last century, NH residents now have the ability to exercise that right without having to ask “Mommy, may I?”. Let me add, in watching this process from the outside, the WDLNH deserves a LOT of the credit for that with a MASSIVE of background work done in crafting the bill, finding sponsors, getting like minded legislators aligned with it, and cajoling others on the fence, and unloading on those that outright despise the idea that law abiding citizens should, GASP!, have their Liberty in this area restored (and with no amount of lying about it – right NH Chiefs of Police and Zandra Rice-Hawkins?). Here are the opening remarks:
Scheduled to run from noon to 2pm, the speakers showed up even in the face of less than ideal conditions (I think that everyone “joshed” the WLDNH folks with “a week late – last Saturday was in the 60s!!!” ). Anthem (Katherine Martinez-Cormier) Susan Olsen, WDLNH Legislative Director Pledge of Allegiance … Read more
Continuing on from Part 2 was NH State Representative John Burt who has been one of the most solid legislators in the NH House on the issue of restoring this foundational Right of being able to keep and bear arms. This, to many on the Right, isn’t just about things made of metal, plastic, and … Read more
