We’re used to the idea here in NH, so why not others?

 NH Constitution: [Art.] 10. [Right of Revolution.] Government being instituted for the common benefit, protection, and security, of the whole community, and not for the private interest or emolument of any one man, family, or class of men; therefore, whenever the ends of government are perverted, and public liberty manifestly endangered, and all other means … Read more

Joni Ernst – ‘Let’s Make Em’ Squeal’

Charles Cooke is probably right.  This ad does have the greatest opening line in the history of political ads.  And if it’s not the best opening, it is damn close. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=p9Y24MFOfFU H/T Ace of Spades

“…governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.”

The full line from the US Declaration of Independence is: “That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.”  Meaning that the American philosophy that we allow ourselves (we give our consent) to be governed by our elected Representatives.  Which also means that there can be a time where that consent, if given in the past, can be withdrawn in the current period or some time in the future?  Are we starting to see a tipping point where that consent is starting to be withdrawn?  We have already heard from Connecticut and have commented on the situation there that it seems that the vast majority of gun owners have decided that they do not consent to the odious firearm statutes that have turned law abiding citizens into Class D felons simply for having purchase something that was legal in the past and are now illegal.  And that has declared them to be on the same moral level as sex offenders (for having to register with the State).

We heard that in NY that other gun owners are in non-compliance with the hastily passed SAFE Act that equals the regulations in Connecticut and those in NJ are starting to do the same:

So it IS Democrats that are taking Medicare away from Seniors!!!

For decades, I’ve been listening to the puke that the Democrats have put out that Republicans just hate Seniors and are just waiting to take Medicare away from them.  Yet, guess who really IS taking away Medicare from Seniors?  Yup, with their vote for Obamacare, they took $700 BILLION out of the Medicare program. Democrats … Read more

Prager U – What is Social Justice

In this week’s video, author and columnist Jonah Goldberg tells you how to stump your left-wing friends: Ask them to define the term “social justice.” That should be easy, right? After all, the term is everywhere: on websites and college campuses, in the mission statements of businesses and charities, and in United Nations reports. But … Read more

99 PERCENT

The NHGOP has a new video out on Democrat Senator Jeanne Shaheen called 99PERCENT NHGOP  

Bill Maher: “why vote for Republican-lite when you can vote for a real Republican”

I just thought “My, the Democrats think the same way – just in reverse on this! – and this from the religion hating, Republican hating Bill Maher.  But what gets me is that he laid down THE marker question to his panel of Lefties:  Why won’t the Democrats just come out, be brace, and be against the Second Amendment? And then you see US Senator Keith Ellison (D-MN) start to panic and try to defend the standard “incrementalist” strategy – because he KNOWS that if Democrats really said what they wanted, they’d never hold office again.  And he basically admits it, too.  As the Youngest would say “Political Cowardness”.

Note: I just put it after the jump – it’s auto playing and real annoying if on the front page – and I don’t see any switches to turn it off.

Prager U – What Did Your Parents Most Want You to Be?

Prager University When parents boast about their children with other people, what do most say first? Is it how nice they are to strangers? Or how much volunteering they did last year? Usually not. More often, they talk about their good grades in school, or the prestigious college they went to, or the much sought … Read more

“Hitler’s Rant on Connecticut Gun Registration”

We’ve written on this before – the governed in Connecticut have begun to withdraw their consent from the governing over the draconian laws that basically made them felons overnight for simply keeping firearms that they may have had for decades with no problems.  They are upset that they are being made to feel and have … Read more

Prager U – Why Capitalism Works

Prager University Cultural depictions of capitalism, in America, are almost all negative. There’s the Monopoly guy with the top hat and cigar. There’s Gordon Gekko saying, “Greed is good.” And, most recently, there’s the hedonism of the “Wolf of Wall Street”. The message is clear: capitalism is selfish. Socialism, or something like it, is altruistic. … Read more

GrokTALK! March 8th, 2014 – the Videos!

GrokTALK!Steve, once again, has beat me in getting the audio up first (Groksters Steve, Mike, and I yak with NH State Rep. Pam Tucker, Candidate for the NH GOP Nomination for US Senate Karen Testerman, and former NH State Rep Kevin Avard.

Preshow – Pam comes in at 8:30 for her 9:30 slot – a bit early but just another chance to yak and get her laughing.  And then we get serious

Segment 1 – Rand Paul at CPAC – the importance of Liberty. Gov. Rick Perry’s red meat speech and he has shown Conservative principles work.  Progressive HAVE to use Personal Destruction to win & the Media buttresses them. The need for Steve’s Republican Repair Kit.  BradleyCare will transform New Hampshire.  Progressives hate Individuals, only see Oppression instead of the Possibility of Potential.  Government is Force; people are seeing it as “what can you give me”.  Freedom from Govt intrusion vs Freedom of necessity (or work).  Progressives are turning Government to be their own personal mugger.  CT gun owners no longer consenting to their govt – here in NH. Ex Post Facto? Bill of Attainder?

Belknap County Convention – last budget meeting

To say that the Belknap County Convention’s budget meetings have been contentious is like calling a hunger crazed tiger a kitty cat.  Yelling, sulking, obstruction, power struggles, Liberals hating the Conservatives who were given the power by the people, Govt employees demanding more from the taxpayers, lawsuits by the Commissioners against the NH State Reps that make up the NH Belknap County Delegation, the minority Democrat Reps suing the Majority Republicans – who SAYS politics can’t be entertaining?

Problem is, I was able to go to very few of the meetings including the final one that a few folks really wanted me to video.  Fortunately, ‘Grok friend Rosemary was there and graciously allowed me to “borrow” the video for posting.  First part here, the rest after the jump:
