A Taste Of Truth
- By Ray Simmons
For months now we have been hearing from the Democrats that we need a comprehensive health care reform, that the American people want this and that it will save money. Now we are hearing that it will actually reduce the deficit by some three-quarters of a trillion dollars over time...that period of time I'm not quite sure about, but having seen government in action I can guarantee it will not reduce the deficit. Listening to the Senator's (Reid's) comments at the press briefing this afternoon I felt myself in the position that Congressman Joe Wilson from South Carolina succumbed to when he shouted "Liar" as the President spoke on the health care bill earlier.
Global Climate Convention to Begin December 7th
- By Bob Dill
Dr. Jerome Corsi Denied Access
The Copenhagen Global Climate Convention that is billed as “a major step forward in global governance” is set to begin Monday, December 7, 2009.

President Obama is scheduled to speak on the opening day and make promises to the world for the American people to keep.

Bloody Shiloh
- By Terry M. Thacker
If asked to name a Civil War battle off the top of their heads, most people would probably say Gettysburg. Some people might respond with Antietam (aka Sharpsburg), or Bull Run (Manassas) or perhaps even Vicksburg or Atlanta.
The battle of Shiloh would probably not be the first one to come to mind, but it was still one of the most important battles of the war, especially in the western theater. The fighting produced over 23,000 casualties and was the largest battle in the Mississippi River region during the war.
Four Pillars of Deceit Support Criminal Climate Change Fraud
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
There is no denying that Rush Limbaugh is a great communicator when it comes to creating illustrations that highlight an important point in logical, understandable terms.
I only hear his program on Tuesdays most weeks as I journey to Laurens and back to Greenville. Last Tuesday he came up with the “four corners (or pillars) of deceit” that have perpetuated the man-made global warming myth, the colossal “big lie” that has made Al Gore and other environmental “wackos” wealthy, and is the basis for a massive seizure of power and transfer of wealth that is about to destroy our constitutional republic and the last vestige of freedom in the world.

Hatred of Confederate Flag Based on Ignorance of Factual History

License to Wheel, Deal and Steal
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
The founders of our constitutional republic advised that they had created a “republic if we can keep it.” They also warned that the new form of government that they had created provided for a degree of freedom, balance and checks that had never before been achieved and was suitable only for a moral and ethical people who were capable of self-control and self-constraint.
Taylor Requests Council Return Land Use Plan to Committee
- By Bob Dill
Hold Public Meetings on Infringement of Private Property Rights, Free Enterprise
In a letter to Greenville County Council Chairman Butch Kirven, Robert G. Taylor, president of the Greenville County Taxpayers Association, requests that “Council return (the Greenville County Comprehensive Land Use Plan) to Committee to hold public meetings that identify all areas that infringe on Private Property Rights and the Free Enterprise System.”
Taylor states that the Association supports sound professional planning, but is opposed to “exploitive planning, which is conducted to produce a predetermined outcome. As an example, Imagine Greenville is almost a copy of previous plans dating back to Visions 2000 and 2005.”

- By Bob Dill
The Republican Party of Charleston County has voted to censure Sen. Lindsey Graham, according to county GOP Chairman Lin Bennett.

Ignore Local Issues at Our Peril
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
There are literally too many things to worry about these days. Some of us choose to “turn it off and tune it out.” We rationalize that we already have all the problems we can handle and, after all, God is in control. But ignoring a problem, leaving it to others, or pretending it doesn’t exist does not make it go away. Problems left unsolved seldom resolve themselves.
The Congress is spending our children and grandchildren into financial servitude to the state and foreign governments. President Obama is flitting around the world in Air Force One and making financial commitments to foreign countries as if the federal money pit has no bottom.

Sustainable Development Part 2: Remove ICLEI - Restore the Republic
- By Tom DeWeese
Many Americans ask how dangerous international policies can suddenly turn up in state and local government, all seemingly uniform to those in communities across the nation and around the globe.
The answer – meet ICLEI, a non-profit, private foundation, dedicated to helping your mayor implement all of his promises. Originally known as the International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI), today the group simply calls itself "ICLEI – Local Governments for Sustainability."
The Price for Political Correctness
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
An honest assessment of the terrorist attack on unarmed troops and medical personnel at Ft. Hood, Texas, would reveal that the alleged perpetrator, Nidal Malik Hasan is a “lone wolf terrorist” motivated by his commitment to Islamic fascism. He was educated and tolerated by the United States Army due to the societal rules of political correctness that have permeated American society in recent years. Beginning in Kindergarten and public schools and enforced by government agencies the rules of political correctness have been forced on the military services to their detriment.

Why The Vietnam War Matters Today
- By Mike Scruggs
The Battle for Historical Perspective
Why does a war that ended more than a generation ago matter today? The answer is: Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Iran, Lebanon, Israel—the entire Middle East— North Korea, growing Chinese power, and resurgent Russian ambition. There are important lessons to be learned from the Vietnam War, but most of the mainstream media and academia got them wrong during the war and still have them wrong today. Consequently, our political leaders are vulnerable to repeating the same tragic mistakes that led to 58,000 American dead and the abandonment of South Vietnam and Cambodia to a Soviet sponsored and equipped invasion by the North Vietnamese Army in 1975. As a result, over three million innocent South Vietnamese and Cambodian civilians were brutally murdered, starved to death, or drowned in the South China Sea trying to escape Communist oppression. Millions of others would be abandoned to cruel tyranny and economic misery.
Republican Women Providing Leadership for GOP Comeback
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Republican women are making a dynamic effort to lead their political party to greatness through open, moral and ethical leadership based on tried and tested conservative principles that have been lacking in government at all levels in recent years. Former Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin added a needed spark to the lackluster campaign of Sen. John McCain in the 2008 presidential campaign. Her fresh, honest, open approach to communicating with people and dealing with political issues shook the foundations of the "business as usual" political establishment and may have saved the fragile GOP from self-destruction. Although there are other potential Republican candidates at the national level, Palin is and will continue to be the national figure that challenges conservatives and terrifies progressives (liberals).
An ACORN-Friendly, Big Labor-Backing, Tax-and-Spend Radical in GOP Clothing
- By Michelle Malkin
Here's the dirty little secret about political candidates and officeholders labeled by the mainstream media as "moderate Republicans": There's usually nothing moderate about them. Consider the case of "moderate Republican" Dede Scozzafava, the GOP nominee in the New York 23rd congressional district's special election.
