NH is About to Ban Abortions After 24 Weeks
Want to know a little know secret about New Hampshire? We have some of the least restrictive abortion laws in the nation. Anyone could perform one, anywhere, any time (conception to birth) and there are no reporting requirements. Well, we had the least restrictive, that’s probably about to change.
Drug-Addicted Mothers Deserve Better than Abortion

Warren Money Spent at Lemonade Stand Photo-Op Donated to March for Life
My earlier prediction that Biden would win the nomination if he didn’t implode still applies. He is imploding. Liz Warren, on the other hand, is surging. In part because she’s the selfie-queen. But this photo-op didn’t entirely turn out according to ‘Plan.’
Morality is a Function of Religion Not Government
Planned Parenthood (PP) recently made a withdrawal from the Title X family planning program announcement. The decision comes as a result of a regulatory change. The regulatory change requires separation of the abortion business from other health care service businesses in order to retain federal funding. The benefit Choosing abortion over taxpayer funding pretty much … Read more
“Life is a Fact, Not an Opinion”
“New Hampshire must send representation to Washington, D.C. that knows life is a fact, not an opinion. If we can’t do that, then God save us.”
That was from the Honorable Dan Itse, speaking at the NHGOP’s February 19 “Stop the Democrat Silence” press conference. His words are worth recalling as Senators Shaheen and Hassan prepare to vote Monday, February 25 on the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act.

Some Choice.
I went to the “Gosnell” movie last week with my wife and a neighbor. Not many people were in the theater early on a Thursday evening. It was about one-quarter full. Mostly older people and a few seeming to be family members, filed in as we did. The thing that struck me about the movie … Read more
Go See “Gosnell” – and Here’s Why
A handful of times each year, something comes along that makes it worth my while to get to a movie theater. Right now, Gosnell is that something. Why am I eager to watch once more a film that I saw in a special screening only a few weeks ago? Read my full review below – especially if the name Kermit Gosnell means nothing to you or if the name is a bit hazy. This is a story to remember and share. As this is posted, the film is scheduled for showings beginning October 12 at the Regal in Newington and Cinematic in Hooksett.

NIFLA v. Becerra: Pro-Life Agencies Need Not Market Abortion
In today’s NIFLA v. Becerra decision, the U.S. Supreme Court determined that pro-life pregnancy care centers may not be compelled by a state to advertise for abortion. The margin: one vote.
Apparently, abortion providers in California are so hard up for business that they thought they ought be able to drag pro-lifers into helping out with marketing. Four Supreme Court Justices were OK with that. Fortunately, five were not.
We force you to wear a seatbelt because it will save your life.
As stupid an argument as can be said as in “since you OBVIOUSLY won’t take responsibility for yourself, we shall make you take responsibility for yourself”. And if you do not, the force of Government will take away your money (via a fine) or take away your time (with jail time). I am glad to be in the Live Free or Die State that still, at least in this respect, has told the Nanny Staters (both those in-state and those in the Federal Govt that has tried, over and over, to bribe NH officials with our own tax monies) to go pound sand – let adults make this decision for themselves. However, many States have not treated their citizens this way – and started the slippery slope in motion. The slippery slope didn’t start out that way – it was first a mandate to the car companies “you will put seatbelts in cars” rather than letting the marketplace make that decision and proceeded downward from there.
And we see it happening again. As I wrote here, gun control is merely the symptom of a greater disease – those that govern believe they rule instead. They are all too willing to breach the fidelity of the Constitution and the Declaration that Government is instituted by men, and not Government over men (a large difference, in my mind). Government was to protect an Individual’s Rights – and not take them away simply because there is a problem at hand. They have faced the problem – and answered wrongly. They see not an Individual but the collective – and proceed to solve problems from that perspective,and in many cases, throw away and walk away from the ideals on which this Constitutional Republic was born.
We hear all the time that the Slippery Slope doesn’t exist – or that it will not happen. B.S. on that – for here is a prime example of “oh it will never happen because we didn’t want that!”. Cool, bucko, somebody else decided to drop that horizontal negative 70 degrees.
Notable Quote – Ann Althouse
On the idea that if the imagery is embraced and used by Progressives, why can’t we who are Pro-Life do the same? Biden actually said: “There is nothing that has pricked the consciousness of the American people (and) there is nothing that has gone to the heart of the matter more than the image people … Read more
