Within I pick three topics upon which to discourse, but not worth a full-length examination as a standalone piece on their own. But first, reprising an older cartoon (for shameless self-promotion!):
People of faith
Tales from the School Districts – So How Much Longer of a Wait to Obey the Law?
As much as I hate what SB263 did (Gender Identity as yet another Protected Class – like we need MORE of ‘classes’ instead of just being “Americans” as in E Pluribus Unum?
“Winning is only a precursor; what you do afterwards is most important. Let Chris Sununu ponder upon that before signing the latest Bathroom Bill HB1319
Governor Sununu, apparently, doesn’t like that line in so much. His exact quote is “Winning is everything.” I guess the “the means justify…” something or other. If you don’t have a purpose, it doesn’t matter, I guess. It’s like that old phrase “if you don’t know where yer goin’, it doesn’t matter what road you take.” And right now, the conservative base in NH is waiting to see what road Governor Sununu is going to take.
Jan Schmidt – Democrat candidate for NH State House from Nashua, hates religion. That includes Muslims, so it seems.
Tesha has a habit of saying things in such a way that I’d be censoring her a lot (here’s a screen cap):
“The Catholic Church in a powerful force in Maine so when the men in dresses who f*** little altar boys told their parishoners[sic] that gay marriage was wrong and a sin, the rubes in the pews believed it and voted as they had been told”
Nice sentiment there, Jan. It doesn’t stop there, either – keep going downward and she has a hit against Islam / Muslims too!
Seems like Jan Schmidt (aka “Tesha“) is a rather opinionated person – and not always all that civil about it. No, I’m not talking meeting the normal “Blogosphere is still the Wild Wild West” variety – it seems that in many cases, that would actually be taking the High Road.
And she is running to be a NH House Rep from Nashua. I wonder if voters in Nashua understand this? If not, I’m willing to oblige. She has a “handle” by the name of Tesha at the Democratic Underground site. On the Right side of the Blogosphere, we just refer to them as the DUmmies. Trite, but we do manage to stay out of the gutter – the DUmmies? It is not known as a circle of highbrow discourse, to put it bluntly. Oft times, I’m not sure who gets dirtier – the participants there or the swine in a stockyard.
That’s a picture of her and Mr. Tesha on the right side of the pic (from DU, where she posts A LOT!). It seems she’s a software code pounder; he is the same.
Now, some might say that this Jan is not the one running; well, Mr. Tesha is pictured here at A Perfect Loaf and the pic matches that in his LinkedIn profile. Which also mentions that he is a part owner in Web Fixers. Which is registered at GoDaddy to Jan (or JanJan) Schmidt. And yes, it is her blog:
So I started a food blog … I know there are a gazillion out there but this isn’t for fame or fortune, it’s for my daughters. They’re in their mid 30’s and I still get the desperate call just around dinner time… “Mom, how do you…?” or “Do you remember that thing you used to make…?”
And this establishes Tesha to be in Nashua. These help too!
- Jan Schmidt “Seamus, I used to post as Tesha until I realized that pseudonyms were childish”
- Jan Schmidt “Funny, the nickname I carry from childhood is Tesha. It’s pronounced tee-sha.”
So, what else does she have to say about Catholics and those of faith in general?
