INDEPENDENT CONSERVATIVE VOICE OF THE PALMETTO STATE
Vote for Harry Kibler for Greenville County District 28 PDF Print E-mail
Written by David Knapp - Greenville, SC   
Wednesday, 21 April 2010

Greenville District 28 Councilman Fred Payne asserts that he is a hard working Republican.

He works hard behind closed doors. A conservative coalition of citizens from the Tea Party, Rino Hunt, Tax Payer Association and regular citizens attended the County Council meeting to oppose the Comprehensive Land Use Plan.

Transparent Fred Payne and his like-minded Councilman went into an executive session to avoid any further public witness to the decision making.

Wednesday, 21 April 2010

For decades our self-serving Government has done next to nothing to curtail the flood of illegal aliens into America, and does virtually nothing to apprehend illegals known to be in the U.S.  It also does everything it can to facilitate the release of those illegals incarcerated by State and local authorities, and has numerous other insidious ways of handi-caping those whose job it is to enforce our immigration laws. One such way is the following which is only a tip-of-an ice berg.

The-Perrys
This week we take a look at a group which has been singing for thirty plus years, but about a year ago took on a new direction. The group is The Perrys from Morristown, Tennessee. In the early years this was a family group, but over the last few years all of the members of the Perry family have moved on with the exception of Libbi. Kenny had some health problems and the sisters’ left for various reasons. The traditional make-up of the group was two male and two female singers but when Nicole Watts decided to leave the group as well as the road to get married. The decision was made to replace Nicole with a male singer. Although there were changes taking place in The Perrys the commitment was still to keep a traditional conventional Gospel Music sound alive.

Sifting out the Political Weasels, Dunces, and Jellyfish

The United States needs an immigration policy that benefits Americans. What we have is an immigration policy—or rather a deliberate failure to enforce immigration laws—that benefits illegal immigrants, businesses that profit from hiring cheap foreign labor instead of Americans, and politicians who want to change our society into a big-government-dependent welfare state.

The Answer: Truth, Biblical Principles PDF Print E-mail
Written by Bob Dill, Publisher   
Wednesday, 14 April 2010

Electing principled conservative Republican candidates to Congress and other public offices is a sound political strategy for taking our country back from radical leftists indoctrinated in Marxism and grounded in the Alinsky Method of Rules for Radicals who have deceived and organized an ignorant, brainwashed segment of our electorate.

Electing conservatives to Congress alone, however, will not be totally and permanently successful unless accompanied by the application of truth and biblical principles. The pursuit of truth must be a top priority in our search for lasting freedom even if it is painful for those on our side of the political spectrum.

Death Is A Subject We Avoid PDF Print E-mail
Written by Terry Odom - Piedmont, SC   
Wednesday, 14 April 2010

My 81 year old mother had to go to the emergency room three times with emphysema last year. She was hospitalized all three times. The first two times, I sent her to St. Francis Women’s Hospital. Both times, two separate doctors told me that my mother was old, her lungs were gone, and advised me not to treat her and let her die. The third time she had to go to a hospital, I sent her to Hillcrest Memorial Hospital. There she was treated for her emphysema and recovered. Here it is April 2010 and she is still alive.

A doctor should not be able to decide who lives and who dies. That is up to God.

America cannot call itself a Christian nation. We kill our elderly, sick and unborn babies. Yet, we jail someon who would kill a litter of puppies.

Rising Tide Of Civil Liberties Violations In America PDF Print E-mail
Written by Chad Kister - Nelsonville, OH   
Wednesday, 14 April 2010

Far too many .Americans are oblivious to the rising tide of civil liberties violations in America. The reason is that much of it is being done under the Patriot Act and is hidden from view by the general public.

What we do know about those who are supposed to be the role models of our country is quite troubling. FBI agents broke into the home of a Portland, Oregon attorney and searched it, using the sneak and peak provision of the Patriot Act. They arrested him and accused him of being a part of the Madrid train bombings. The FBI later realized they had made a mistake in the DNA and released him. He won $2 million in a subsequent lawsuit.

Saving Souls--Losing Freedom PDF Print E-mail
Written by Chuck Baldwin   
Wednesday, 14 April 2010

One would have to be a blind man to not see that America is fast losing the fundamental principles of liberty upon which our once-great country was established. And, without a doubt, the single biggest reason for this decline is the lack of concern and effort on the part of today's Christians and pastors to resist it.

All over America, when one approaches our pastors and church leaders with the obvious decay and ruination of constitutional government and Declaration principles taking place in our land today, the response flippantly comes back: "God hasn't called me to do that; I'm supposed to win souls and that's it." (Or words to that effect.) As if the call to Gospel preaching, evangelism, and missionary endeavor negates our responsibility as citizens of a free land.

The Origin of the Cross Bars on the Confederate Flag PDF Print E-mail
Written by Dr. Ben Carper   
Wednesday, 14 April 2010

I have often wondered how the Confederate Flag came to be fashioned as it is. Long before the Confederate Battle Flag, the "southern cross" was adopted by the Confederacy as her Battle Flag, the X shaped cross, previously known as "Andrew's Cross." The letter X dates back to the early days of Christianity, where the Greeks designated X as the letter "chi" in their alphabet, which has been used to represent the Lord Jesus Christ.

It was a Symbol of Glory that ancient warrior forefathers would paint the symbol of Andrew's Cross on their shields and carried the symbol into battle in the last of the Roman-Celtic wars and were said to scream the "Rebel Yell" when entering into conflict.

Members of His Staff Allegedly Spent $1,946 at a “Bondage-Themed Strip Club” in Hollywood

Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Michael Steele is under fire for lavish spending for unnecessary and questionable travel and entertainment by his staff.

Since Steele has taken over as Chairman, RNC cash reserves have gone from $22 million to less than $10 million. Expenditures include $17,000 for private jet travel, $13,000 for limousines, and more than $9,000 for hotels in Beverly Hills, California. The straw that “broke the camel’s back,” was $1,946 spent for entertainment at a party at a West Hollywood bondage-themed strip club.

Written by Bob Dill, Publisher   
Wednesday, 07 April 2010

The Russian Communist Party newspaper Pravda has published an opinion piece titled, American Capitalism Gone With a Whimper. In it the author ridicules the American people for being so naïve as to accept Marxism and slavery without so much as a fight.

“It must be said, that like the breaking of a great dam, the American decent into Marxism is happening with breathtaking speed, against the backdrop of a passive, hapless ‘sheeple.’”

Young People Cheer For Their Own Destruction PDF Print E-mail

You'd think that young people would be flocking to the tea party activities.

They've had the most stolen from them by the corrupt politicians.  Their entire future has been stolen!  They'll spend most of their life in a MUCH lower standard of living than that enjoyed by their parents.  America's economy is being "fundamentally changed" (just as Obama promised) into one where very few will have any real opportunity to move up in life.

"We will eliminate the middle man, and save $68 billion dollars." So promised the Great One, President Obama, as he signed legislation which 'took over' the Student College Loan Program.
