GrokTV Event: GSPLPAC presents Rosa Koire on Agenda 21 – Parts 6 and 7

I’ll tell you, the more I hear about the subject, the thoughts of “are you serious”?  Yet, when I look at the example in Portland, Oregon where “sustainable development” is the end-all-be-all of urban planning, I start to think “mmmm, maybe there is something to this” (here, here, here, and here).  Skyrocketing housing costs have … Read more

Behind The Green Mask: UN Agenda 21

Tuesday night, the Granite State Patriot Liberty PAC presented Rosa Koire, author of the book “BEHIND THE GREEN MASK: U.N. Agenda 21– The Agenda for the 21st Century Sustainable Development.

She spent two hours talking about how zoning laws have been targeted by those wishing implement mandatory high density housing, the community data compiled by local towns and cities that would be used against them in attempts to “provide justice against institutionalized racism”, the attacks on personal property by calls to move to a commutarian philosophy (where the “common good” outweighs any Rights of the individual), and a forced move from personal cars to an all public transportation model.  Governance would go from elected and accountable officials to an unaccountable and unelected bureaucratic regionalism model.

Here is Part 1:

GrokTV Special Event: Granite State Patriot Liberty PAC TEA Party – Intro Ceremonies

Yesterday the ‘Grok went to the Granite State Patriot Liberty PAC (“GSPLPAC”) “Jack is Back!” TEA Party. Meant as the start of a rallying point, a number of conservative candidates and speakers talked to a crowd that was double that which was originally expected. Sure, most of the TEA Party rolled up its sleeves and went to work politically to effect the changes it knew had to be done – and the 2010 elections were the results.  Even with that amazing result, the Dems and media kept kvetching about “well, where are you” (even as I kept saying “and the huge rallies by the Democrat / Socialist leaning Occupy Wall Street movement are – where?”.

We can be an obliging bunch.  As I said here, the expectation was 100.  I’ve been told by “official counters” that the actual attendance was just about 200 – far more than my lower range estimate of 150.

Sidenote: although not present at the rally, Jerry Delemus was mentioned often with many thanks for stepping up and stepping into the GSPLPAC Chair when Jack had his run at the NH Governorship.  GraniteGrok extends its thanks to Jerry for taking on a hard job with no notice and getting the PAC into the fray!

This video is of the intro ceremony: Invocation, Moment of Silence in honor of the slain Greenland, NH Chief of Police (Michael Maloney who died protecting his men), Honoring our Veterans, Pledge to the Flag, and the singing of the National Anthem:

Right after that, Jeff Chidester (host of “NH Perspectives” and Conserva-tarian [Conservative / Libertarian] activist) stepped into the role of Master of Ceremonies and had some introductory remarks:

GrokTV Special Event: Granite State Patriot Liberty PAC TEA Party – Conservative / Libertarian candidates make their case and ask for support

No one can accuse Ovide Lamontagne, candidate for NH GOP nomination for NH Gov.,  of sitting and waiting for that nomination to come to him.  He doesn’t feel entitled to it – he knows he as to earn it.  Here at Saturday’s GSPLPAC  TEA Party, Friday night at the AFP/NH Conservative of the Year award for Kelly Ayotte – he’s working!  He brought a message that fits the TEA Party philosophy (and the worst nightmare of Democrats / Socialists / Statists everywhere):

  • Free Markets
  • Limited Government
  • Constitutional outlook

The TEA Party can always count on the support of Ovide.

There were also others looking for TEA Party support:

  • Dennis Lamare (Republican nomination for Congress,  NH-CD2)
  • Brendan Kelly (Libertarian nomination for Congress, NH-CD1)
  • John Hikel (Republican nomination for NH Senate,  District 20)

GrokTV Special Event: GSPLPAC TEA Party – The Speakers: Natalie Healy, Gold Star Mom, and Dr. Joe Tarta

I am a double Blue Star dad which means that I have had two children serve in our Armed Services (the Eldest a Marine who did a tour in Iraq and the Youngest a tour in Afghanistan with the 101st Airborne).  I consider myself lucky and blessed – they returned home safely with just some wear and tear….but they are home.

A Gold Star Mom (and Dad) is different, for their child made the ultimate sacrifice for our Country, and in Nat’s case, for his Navy SEAL buddies.  Sr. Chief Petty Officer, US Navy SEAL Dan Healy didn’t have to go on that last helicopter ride to rescue his buddies on that Afghanistan mountain – but he did not hesitate.  But let’s let Nat tell the story far better than I:

Dr. Joe Tarta, retired physician, also spoke on Obamacare and why it won’t work as President Obama has promised.  He also talks about some of the practical bad outcomes that are already taking place and that are being noticed:

The Debate You Probably Missed

Last nights presentation was attended by four candidate. Governor Buddy Roemer, Governor Gary Johnson, Senator Rick Santorum and Speaker Gingrich. They were paired up (Roemer/Johnson; Santorum/Gingrich) and given about an hour for each of the two sets.
