Islam Was Not For Me

Granite Grok - Tue, 2024-09-24 14:00 +0000
My breach with Islam started as far back as I could discern things. More to the point, I never embraced Islam in the first place, although I was born and raised in a Muslim family. For one thing, I had a tough time following a so-called religion whose founder and followers had butchered my ancestors, ... Read more

Rescue The Republic and the Realignment of American Politics

Granite Grok - Tue, 2024-09-24 12:00 +0000
It is nearly impossible to find literature on politics or American culture that doesn’t equate some totalitarian forms as right-wing. And while that was fine when the spectrum was a circle – you could put Hitler and Mussolini next to Stalin, Lenin, Mao, Bernie, and Kamal Harris- it has since been laid on a straight ... Read more

Supreme Courts, Slurs, Speech and Silence Dogood

Granite Grok - Tue, 2024-09-24 02:00 +0000
Over three years ago, our New Hampshire Education Commissioner stopped me at the State House just outside Representatives Hall. “You should sue!” he counseled. “Why?” “Didn’t you see that Union Leader opinion piece today?” I soon found out that I was featured on a purported white supremacist list—which also included the commissioner—in a screed written by a ...

Mass Deportations would Reduce the Deficit.

Granite Grok - Tue, 2024-09-24 00:00 +0000
If you are a fiscally conscious voter, we have some good news. Recent research by the Manhattan Institute suggests that border jumpers (no duh! moment approaching) represent a significant cost to taxpayers that their deportation would alleviate. The complete unroll is impressive (look here), but the gist is that the cost of illegal immigration is ... Read more

MA Law to Allow Non-Residents to Carry a Firearm in Their Vehicle Looks Like a Trap

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-09-23 20:00 +0000
The otherwise intolerant and intolerable State of Massachusetts amended its firearms laws over the summer. It might have been the heat (more likely the lawsuits) that inspired them, but they managed to cough up H4885, “An Act modernizing firearm laws.” Aside from being an overly long mess, it allows nonresidents to travel through the state armed ...

We Are Being “Punked” By Kamala And Crew

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-09-23 18:00 +0000
This campaign by Kamala Harris is the biggest show about nothing since the end of the Seinfeld series. Every question she answers, and there have been a record low number of them, is with a rehearsed dialog serving of word salad that has little to do with the question. Whether on a podcast or the ...

Monday Monday, can’t trust that day! Last week’s Friday Edition. Remember, ridicule and mockery are effective weapons: 1. Ridicule cannot easily be fought 2.

Vice-President Kamala is Gung-Ho On Bidenomics…

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-09-23 02:00 +0000
If “Bidenomics” is working, as Vice President Harris says, why are new programs needed? If they’re needed, why hasn’t she implemented, or at least been loudly fighting for them? Harris is the Vice President! With a failing record, unbelievable promises, and without legitimate grounds for attacking Trump, Harris resorted to lies in the Harris-Trump debate. ... Read more

The Dem’s Drug and Rape Problem

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-09-23 00:00 +0000
Democrats are not being adequately held accountable for the side effects of policies they not only support but defend. While the economy is high on everyone’s list, their border and migration policy is far more devastating. And I’m not talking about eating other people’s pets – which – as an aside, is, in fact, something ... Read more

I Agree with the Techie…Leave No Door Unlocked

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-09-22 22:00 +0000
Yeah, curmudgeon here. When I was younger, I played around with X10 devices to create a “smart home” and all that. But when I saw this, I said “Yep, nope!”: Smart House should be MY house without all the electronic peeping toms watching everything I do: vacuum cleaners, lights, thermostats, Alexa, Siri, and all the ...
