NH Ballot Question: Vote NO!

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-11-03 21:00 +0000
It’s age discrimination to require sheriffs to retire at 70 years of age while extending judges’ retirement age to 75. A retired judge who lost sight of equal treatment before the law initiated this ballot question. Now you can plainly see what an elitist cabal our judiciary is. What’s also troubling is that voters aren’t fully informed. They aren’t ... Read more

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-11-03 19:00 +0000
Just taking a moment from everything else right now. Even though this is “Superbowl” time for political junkies, I still have not had the wherewithal to do much about it.

I Can See Russia From My Front Porch

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-11-03 15:00 +0000
Let’s talk some more about Mrs. Jake Sullivan, more commonly known to low-information voters as Maggie Goodlander.  After Annie Kuster announced her retirement and endorsed Colin Van Ostern to take her place, Goodlander announced her candidacy as “Maggie Tamposi Goodlander” to throw around that Nashua household name.  Dear readers, out of respect for the cherished ...

Donald Trump sat down with Tucker Carlson and inadvertently started a firestorm within the legacy media. Trump was talking about Liz Cheney and her reputation, as well as her father’s, to shoot first and negotiate later. In other words, he told the truth about Liz Cheney being a pure Hawk who loved to start battles ... Read more

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-11-03 02:00 +0000
 I was astounded when candidate Kathyrn Mone won the Democratic primary for Strafford County Sheriff. Mone was Police Chief in North Hampton when a citizen, Coleen Loud, was breathalyzed, handcuffed, packed into a squad car, and arrested. For what crime? For drinking in her own home. This incident resulted in a $150,000 settlement payment that ... Read more

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-11-03 00:00 +0000
Why did the City spend $650,000 in attorney’s fees and City Costs in an RTK case? The First RTK Petition – My Costs – $225,000 I started seeking records in Nashua, the Welcoming City, in good faith, believing the City would comply.

As a sophomore spending a college year abroad (1967 – 1968), a friend and I thumbed around Europe during our free time and eventually visited Berlin.

Isn’t ‘Not Getting’ Raped Or Murdered a “Women’s Rights” Issue?

Granite Grok - Sat, 2024-11-02 20:00 +0000
Jeff Childer’s Coffee & Covid is a regular read for me, and today, he focused on reports that a majority of early voting was by women. That’s the media spin. There is a gender gap in early voting, and this is a good look for Kamala, probably because they believe that women (especially younger women) will vote ... Read more

Granite Grok - Sat, 2024-11-02 16:00 +0000
At the last meeting (before the lease sale) on the Gulf of Maine’s offshore wind development, someone asked about Schiller Station.

What is Kamala Harris for?

Granite Grok - Sat, 2024-11-02 14:00 +0000
Biden’s/Harris’s weakness enabled two expanding wars, either could lead to World War 3. Their incompetence united the free world’s enemies. WW3 wouldn’t spare our homeland, many millions of us will die. Harris can’t think of anything she’d do different. Harris is hiding her intended domestic policies; Bernie Sanders says she’s saying what she needs to ... Read more

Who is a Fascist?

Granite Grok - Sat, 2024-11-02 10:00 +0000
The accusation of “fascist!” is being tossed around a lot in the closing weeks of this campaign season, which gets me to wondering if these accusers actually know what fascism is.
