JP Sears, once again, puts another spin on Freedom. This time, playing Devil’s Advocate for Progressives who truly believe that THEY can take care of you and are trying mighty hard to make sure that they WILL take care of you.

British Reporter Loses it Over Identity Politics – Langauge Warning, But it’s Brilliant!
When we talk to people about any number of subjects related to the Looney Toon Left, there’s always this sense of ease even on such touchy subjects as Critical Race Theory that they are not alone in their feelings.
Notable Quote – WHOSE “Democracy”?
Reformatted, emphasis mine:
Who’s a Threat to ‘Our Democracy’?
When progressives single out threats to ‘our democracy,’ what they mean is their democracy.
The Hypocrisy of Nancy Pelosi and President Asterisk on Full Display This Past Week in DC
All we’ve heard during all of last year was “Defund the Police, defund the police”! All they do is support White Supremacy, the Patriarchy, Oppress minorities…you know, all the usual SJW overthrow-the-US types. Black Lives Matter (but no other lives). All we’ve heard is “Alternatives! Fewer guns, more love”!
The Left’s Burning Desire for Revenge
Every. Damned. Word. E.g.: “In other words, are you out of your ever-loving little minds? These people STOLE two elections – it’s now absolutely obvious the nominal right is fine with this. They hope for crumbs from their masters’ tables.”
The Silencing Has Begun – the Left Is Recreating Germany of the 1930s – Part 1
The Left is recreating Germany of the 1930s and trying hard not to co-opt the Holocaust. They are putting Scarlet Letters on anyone that disagrees with them in the slightest. And not just that. they want us dead.
Prager U – The 1619 Project is Just Another lame Attempt to Rewrite American History.
I haven’t written a lot about the 1619 Project sponsored by the NYT (writer(s)). The plan was to be as an emphasis to what the Black Lives Matter movement has been (wrongly) preaching. That America has been racist, is racist, and will ALWAYS be racist.
Next time NH Democrats start yammering about “Dark Money” in campaigns, remember this:
Note the last question below: LEFT’S NON-PROFIT FUNDING LEAD KEEPS GROWING: Michael Watson and Shane Devine of the Capital Research Center (CRC) update through the 2018 campaign the center’s ongoing study comparing charitable funding resources for the Left and Right and finds the former’s advantage continues to expand. “In the 2017–2018 cycle, the 301 groups supported by … Read more
They Were Warned: Just Leave Us Alone. They Couldn’t.
From a commenter at American Greatness: “No matter what you do, no matter what you try, do you really think these people will leave you alone?
Notable Quote – reinforcement for my previous post on Free Markets
My previous post. Simply because it fits and too many people believe that a cabal of rulers can run our economy better than we ourselves can (emphasis mine): A liberalism – no slaves, the right to say no – is built into [Adam] Smith’s argument at the outset. You decide, not the government or the community, not the … Read more
A Trolling We Shall Go, a Trolling We Shall Go! High Ho the Dairo, a Trolling We Shall Go – “Granite Crock”
Steve was alerted to yet another attempt to try to “takedown” GraniteGrok. I think, over the years, there have been four or five attempts. The problem is, most of these “we’re better than you are” have no idea how hard and how much discipline it takes to actually be successful and build up any kind of readership that sticks around.
Well, I didn’t see this coming: “To bypass lockdowns, Calif. pastor temporarily turns church into strip club”
This is what happens when elected representatives believe THEY know better what others need than those others KNOW they need. It’s also clear that the general public, in ways both large and small, can figure out a “system” and how to exploit its weaknesses.
DISQUS Doodlings – About that Electoral College
The Left is VERY desirous about doing to the Electoral College what they did to States’ interests when the Progressives passed the 17th Amendment. If there is a puzzled look on your face, let me explain (quickly).
Unity, Democrats Say. Public Relations, I say
Let us start off with this. It gets right to the heart of the matter: Democrats Want Unity Only on Their Terms.
So, trying to pull a “Doug Scamman” in the US House?
For those of you who don’t remember, Doug Scamman was a RINO who served in the NH House for 13 terms. He was Speaker of the NH House from 1986 to 1990 and 2004 to 2006. His greatest feat was to be elected to the Speaker, not by the Republicans, but essentially by the Democrats.
The Nutroots Already Has a Guide (and a Plan) for Harassing NH Republicans
Several sore losers on the left plan to demand recounts. They underestimated how much dumber the electorate was than they’d claimed. Not even smart enough to vote for them, maybe. Better check again. But not everyone is hopeful. The nutroots are already ready for losing, and they’ve got a guide.
Progressives Want Us to Be More Like Europe – “EU Coronavirus Cases Twice As Bad As US”
A lot of us just want to be left alone but Progressives refuse to do so. As reported before, they keep yammering that we need to be more like Europe. Especially in terms of WuFlu where lockdowns and mask mandates have been almost universal.
Progressives Want To Indoctrinate Our Children, Not Educate Them
If you are a Progressive in the political sense of the word, here is the philosophy to which you subscribe. If you think about public education, you think like John Dewey, the father of a progressive educational system.
Notable Quote – Society vs Government
Just as the Founders considered and created a Constitution that would guarantee the Separation of Powers, the philosophy behind it was to set up bulwarks to deny people the ability to aggregate power unto themselves and their special interests.
