December 5, 2020 Steve MacDonald

New Hampshire has a snow emergency in effect or something like that. Heavy snow. Large flakes and lots of them. Heavy, wet, wind later, power outages likely. People were out early getting things done and gassing up vehicles, filling fuel “cans.” Me Too, and what I saw at the gas station made me want to laugh out loud.

Virus Shutdown Games

Virus Shutdown games are a means by which one can enjoy his or herself in the midst of the, “Rona.” In the military we often said, “Embrace the Suck,” A less-known contemporary military colloqialism is, “Another Fallujah,” denoting a screwed up place, just crawling with bad guys.

This is, “Another Fallujah,” So we might as well, “Embrace the Suck”.

“If people in the media cannot decide whether they are in the business of reporting news or manufacturing propaganda, it is all the more important that the public understand that difference, and choose their news sources accordingly.” —Thomas Sowell

Thus Vermont would become the first state to require a permit for the luxury of going about unarmed and assess a fee of $500 for the privilege of not owning a gun.”

So there it is. Once again, it is taking flight around the internet as if this is recent news. But…In all reality, Maslack proposed the bill in 2001. Yep! Maslack has not been in the Vermont house for over ten years. This a great story…grabs some real traction

Alexander Fraser Tytler, Lord Woodhouselee in the 1700’s on discussing democracy opined,

“A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government. A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover that they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse over loose fiscal policy, (which is) always followed by a dictatorship.”

The Class Warfare Of Blue Hampshire

September 26, 2018July 4, 2011 Rick Olson

Caitlin fails to do an effective case study on wealth and liberalism while she waves a finger at Bill O’Brien because if she looked hard enough around the Granite State she would see the utter rank hypocrisy of leftists and their verbal articulation of progressive policies, while pursuing within their own personal lives a hard-core capitalist modus operandi that would make even Milton Friedman blush.
