Originally recorded on May 2nd, 2015 we featured guest Greg Kline from Red Maryland.com, who gave us an on-the-ground update and his perspective on the Baltimore riots, and the local politics in the city and the state. We’ve also got Ron Moore on climate, we talk New Hampshire casinos, concealed carry, and why the NHGOP … Read more
We talk Jaspercrats on the House Judiciary Committee (hello! primary); NH RNC Committeemen (and women) actively undermining the Republican party platform; and the Republican House passed a bill to harpoon local transparency this week. We also spend some time on the casinos, the Hoell amendment, and other stabs at liberty with regard to gambling. Listen … Read more

Greg Kline from Red Maryland is going to join us tomorrow on GrokTALK! to discuss the Baltimore riots. I was doing some reading in preparation for that interview and came across an article by another contributor at Red Maryland, Brian Griffiths. In the course of questioning the city’s failure to address issues of poverty, he … Read more
Let me see…what do I want to do? How about endorsing some candidates in the upcoming Republican Primary? Yea, that’s a sure fire way to get your taxpayer activist keister in a sling. You have to understand that in New Hampshire every candidate from the far-far left to the far-far right is a “Tax Fighter”. … Read more
Last weekend I traveled through beautiful parts of Massachusetts, Connecticut, and New York. These nearby beautiful states do all the things that New Hampshire Progressives/Liberals/Socialists complain that New Hampshire doesn’t do. It’s a shame that we have so many unhappy citizens when these Progressive paradises are so close. Massachusetts, Connecticut, and New York have huge … Read more
“Under Maggie Hassan’s watch, S&P has downgraded NH’s financial outlook rating from ‘stable’ to ‘negative.’ I believe that this grading falls squarely on Governor Hassan’s inability to manage state finances. This will have dire consequences and cost ramifications for NH businesses and taxpayers. Her Status Quo mentality and failure to advance New Hampshire’s economy, on … Read more
…and what the Journalist Round Table failed to recognize. WMUR’s CloseUp, their Sunday political rumination show, is generally good for a couple items and this week is no different. Main interviewee was recently announced candidate for the NH GOP nomination for NH Governor, Walt Haverstein (re: info and oops!). Well, Josh McElveen asked a question … Read more
This may be the dumbest thing I read today. (I confess, it is sitll early, but for now…) “We need revenue,” said Rep. Frank Sapareto, R-Derry. “We know what our options are. There are only two. We know it’s going to be marijuana or gambling. That’s the only way we’ll get additional revenue. Our other … Read more
Since we’re approaching the next push for raising the illusory Debt Limit, and the United States is currently over $17,000,000,000,000 in debt, I thought a post about a shining exemplar of Democrat management and debt might be illuminating. Detroit, or Detroilet as it has come to be known since the Democrats placed their considerable seats … Read more
Democrats railed on Republicans and mercilessly chided them to spend-spend-spend in 2013, but they wouldn’t do it. In the end the Democrats caved, more or less duplicating the previous ‘O’Brien Budget’ with some minor cost-of-living adjustments. Democrats got nothing they really wanted, but after they swallowed that bitter pill the only think left to do … Read more
Pulling the old ‘precautionary principle’ card from their sleeves.. Via Powerline: “Let’s say that science, some decades from now, said ‘we were wrong, it was not about climate’, would it not in any case have been good to do many of things you have to do in order to combat climate change?” Photo credit: http://lifebetweenframes.blogspot.com/2012/12/casino-royale-2006.html
A past presidential aspirant who was never able to get more than 4% of his own party to vote for him in a primary (but happens to be the current VP), will be the featured attraction at a fundraiser for New Hampshire Governor Maggie Hassan, at the home of a Lobbyist in Maine. The lobbyist … Read more
Starting with the downfall of the Casino bill in the New Hampshire House, voices started peeping about how this was really some progressive plot to pass an income tax. I guess the two were being connected somehow? The Democrats voted the Casino bill down so they could use its death as an excuse to summon … Read more
Kathy Sullivan channels Adam Smith (?) in John DiStaso’s Granite Status…(In regard to the Casino Bill Vote) “But what amazed me is the lack of willingness (by opponents of both parties) to recognize the amount of gambling we already have in New Hampshire, with all of the under-regulated charitable gaming, and it continues to grow … Read more
Update! – The Democrats claim they needed the Monday Caucus so that both sides could give their views on the Casino Bill, and that this was a legitimate purpose for which they could exact a mileage reimbursement on a Monday, but Wednesday morning of the same week, before the session and vote on the Casino Bill, the … Read more
New Hampshire Governor Maggie Hassan has written a letter to Connecticut Governor Dannel Malloy, objecting to a legislative effort in the “Nut”-meg state to redefine what Connecticut will view as ‘green energy’ to meet their renewable portfolio standard.
Do New Hampshire Democrats have their priorities straight? Think about it. The economy is creeping along. No one is projecting even moderate growth. Employment is likely to remain flat which means unemployment is as well. All in all, the best we can hope for, according to all the ‘experts’ is to drift along for a while. So what … Read more
