RedState has a post entitled “A Group of Pennsylvania Teachers Prove It Was Always About Indoctrination, Not Education” (reformatted, emphasis mine): Public schools have become a minefield. Sending your kids to one is a gamble as winding up in the wrong classroom could put them into the clutches of an activist posing as a teacher, … Read more

Notable Quote – Where is the Courage to be Fearless and DO something!

October 10, 2021

by Skip

Reformatted, emphasis mine: The conservative establishment, its politicians, and its media, don’t lack ideas or people. But too many of its leaders do lack determination and endurance and fearlessness. The people can tell. As it is said, “Men don’t follow titles, they follow courage.” The conservative movement in D.C. has too often been engaged in … Read more

Like so many people I’ve been baffled at watching small Leftist groups or even individuals acting to advance their global cause seemingly with great coordination in the big picture, but without any visible sign of said coordination or order-giving from a “shadowy central entity.”

The America that you and I knew is gone. Complaining on Facebook or other social media will be to no avail. Action is needed to correct past mistakes and that starts with YOU. I am compelled to write this today because each day this president breaks another law with impunity.

Defeating the Left Starts With Activating Down-Ballot Voting

August 29, 2019

by Steve MacDonald

Talk to an activist in almost any town, and you’ll discover a common problem. People turn out to vote in presidential elections but don’t always vote for local offices. They are less likely to vote down-ballot and many that do are throwing darts blindfolded.

The NFL “Invests” 90 Million to Turn Players Into Social Justice Warriors

September 26, 2018April 27, 2018

by Op-Ed

By Jim Johnson

The National Football League and a handful of player advocates have compromised to reach what they believe is workable consensus 90 million dollars over seven years. A mere pittance when compared to league Commissioner Roger Goodell’s salary. (Between 2008 and 2015 Goodell was paid more than $205 million).

“Our partnership is designed to equip athletes as influencers and community leaders with the mechanics to develop their advocacy platform.”

A Global Warming Alarmist In ‘Efficiency Sheeps’ Clothing?

September 26, 2018March 20, 2011

by Steve MacDonald

Gore Jim Grady, President and owner of LighTec in Merrimack, has a letter in the Sunday Telegraph on the current effort in the New Hampshire legislature to drop out of RGGI, the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative. He expresses some concern over Republican objection to the plan, points out what he sees as inconsistencies in objections to it, and does not believe it should be mothballed.

But there are problems.

Jim argues that the fee created by RGGI is actually a small cost that benefits all of us, and that we should not object to such a tax because we have had something similar in place in the State for 12 years now.

Most House members seem utterly unaware that for the past 12 years the state has levied a “tax” on the many that indisputably benefits the many: the Systems Benefit Charge (SBC). If you look at your electric bill, you’ll see a tiny charge of $0.0035 per kilowatt-hours of energy usage to pay for state-sponsored energy efficiency. This SBC “tax” (like RGGI, bipartisan) benefits the many by reducing the need to make multi-billion dollar investments in new power plants and electricity transmission and distribution systems.

But Jim never explains why, if we have that tax in place to benefit state sponsored efficiency projects, why we signed onto a separate system that adds an additional tax, supervised by an out of state entity, that skims a portion of that "tax" off the top for administrative costs? How does that help everyone in New Hampshire when it diverts some of that so-called benefit away from the state.

Why not make a case to raise the SBC to fill the stated need? Why add a separate system, run by an outside third party, based on the questionable need to reduce carbon dioxide emissions?

Because Jim Grady was a member of the working group for the Carbon Co2alition, whose goal is or was…

… to advocate for a national energy policy that protects our communities and environment from the ravages of global warming caused by carbon pollution.

That affiliation might have been good to know in advance. But we can take a look at that right now…
