by John HillStand With Arizona Thank you, Granite State! The New Hampshire Senate yesterday joined the House in passing a resolution (full text below) proclaiming that "the state of New Hampshire fully supports the State of Arizona’s right to protect its borders and citizens" by passing its immigration law S.B. 1070. The resolution's path to passage was very contentious, with opponents testifying hysterically against it in both chambers, and Democrats trying all manner of procedural gimmicks to try and derail it - all in vain. House Concurrent Resolution 2 (HCR2) passed the Senate 15-9 last evening after slapping down an...

Former Vice president Al Gore on Friday refuted claims that global warning is a myth, saying that 97 to 98 percent of the worlds’ scientists attest to its veracity. Gore was the keynote speaker at the inauguration of Hampshire College President Jonathan Lash Friday.

Yup. Newt Gingrich is the conservative`s leader, especially since he wants to allow 8-12 million aliens who have invaded our borders to remain here if they haven`t violated particular laws. But entering our country illegally is not included on the list! Have we forgotten Gingrich ignored patriotic conservatives in...

LISTEN, Libertarian! By Tim Condon October 9, 2005 Libertarians are such losers. I know, this is not a way to endear myself to them, even when my best friends are all libertarian or near-libertarian.

Instead, they say things like, “We’re not looking for anyone right now,” she said. Because she’s 16 and has no previous work experience, Dube thinks those factors may be working against her. Her biggest fear is that she’ll...
