Dear Executive Councilors: Thank You for Your Four Votes on Wednesday
Dear Executive Councilors: Thank you for your four votes on Wednesday, so exciting. I think your vote will help turn the tide in the State, and maybe in the Nation.
Quick Thought: So Why No Eblast From the NH GOP Thanking Trump for His Service?
You’d a thunk that with NH GOP Chair Steve Stepanek being one of his co-chairs during the campaign and now being the NH GOP Chair, they could have at least issued ONE email to simply say “Thanks for what you accomplished”?
Dear President Trump,
In November 2016, over Sixty-three million Americans cast their votes for you to become their President for the next four years. They chose you because they trusted your campaign promises and they believed in your simple yet powerful message of “Make America Great Again” and they were right.
Less than half of Americans know the true meaning behind Memorial Day
Sad, really sad. Saw this at Instapundit: I DON’T KNOW WHAT THEY TEACH IN PUBLIC SCHOOL. I KNOW IT’S NOT ANYTHING WORTH KNOWING: Most Americans have no clue why we celebrate Memorial Day. Going to the link (reformatted, emphasis mine): Less than half of Americans know the true meaning behind Memorial Day, according to a new … Read more

Quick update: “Being perfectly Capitalist here, we’re asking for help from our readers…”
Back on March 30th, I put out an “ask” to our readers on three things: sign up for Alexa, subscribe to our YouTube channel, and yes, donations are now working again. I’m not asking about the last (not averse to someone doing so, just not the topic of this post). As to the first, well, … Read more

Guest Post by Alan Olsen – Barrett L. Austin
My guess is that you do not know Barrett L. Austin. I would also venture a guess that you do not know the town of Easley, South Carolina. And in this day and age, we never will know unless we take our time and look for these youngsters and their stories.
Why is that important? Sad to say that this morning, I am doubting we do care anymore. But maybe you can help me come to better grips with all of this, a better insight beyond America not caring anymore. Honestly, I do not know and am clouded by my bias against being force-fed minute by minute, hour by hour and day by day the tragedies of the past months. Please understand here that I in no way minimize all that has happened. We have been hit by our enemies and by crazy people in the name of God knows what. There are bad people who do bad things for reasons that are hard for many of us to fully understand. And after all the media “get the widow on the set” coverage, it still boils down to bad people doing bad things to everyday good people. All tomorrow’s laws, rules and regulations, imposed on good people, will never erase the (set to action) of bad, cruel and cowardly people. To me, this is important because others are sacrificing and my country no longer pays attention.
Sometimes, it is nice to receive a “thank you” instead of a “where’s my….”
I’ve mentioned on many occasions here that TMEW and I ran a daycare center for a few years; I also have stated that the folks that were almost always the folks that were the most appreciative of the care we gave to and around their most precious ones were those paying “full boat” prices. Yes, there were a few that were on State assistance that also in this category, but mighty few. For the majority, it was expected and sometimes, more was DEMANDED (and sometimes, got mad when we expected them to do something for themselves / kids). So, when this came in, a thank you, I decided to post it (emphasis mine, name redacted):
