Blue Ridge native Aaron Tippin launched his musical career with a song titled: If You Don’t Stand for Something, You Will Fall for Anything. The common-sense song was very popular during the Gulf War.
It is also instructive to recognize that “the people perish for lack of knowledge.” Our nation is in jeopardy and Americans are in danger of losing their freedom for lack of knowledge and unwillingness to take a stand against evil. Thousands of young adults voted for Barack Obama twice because of a lack of truthful knowledge. Thousands of Conservatives and Christians failed to vote in the presidential election due to lack of knowledge of the impact of their actions.
Weak Republicans in the U.S. Senate

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is the man Republicans count on to make a maximum effort to defeat Obamacare in the United States Senate. He sounded great on C-Span when he denounced Obamacare at the Conservative Political Action Conference. He dramatically stood by the six-foot tall stack of more than 20,000 pages of regulations that have been issued so far to implement Obamacare, and announced that 828 pages of new regulations had been issued in just one day.
McConnell sounds tough on the Senate floor with television cameras present. “This law is a disaster waiting to happen,” he insisted. “Imagine the burden we’re placing on the single mom who wants to open her own store. Or the young entrepreneur who wants to sell some new idea. Or the business owner we all know back home – the folks who employ so many of our constituents. We’re hitting them with a brick of regulations.
“Uncle Joe” Learning to Waste Money

As a career United States Senator, Vice President Joe Biden made a big deal out of riding the train from Delaware to Washington. He identified with the “common man” and “blue collar” worker. As Vice President in his second term and visions of never being held accountable for his actions, he has “thrown caution to the wind.” Into his fifth year as partner with the spender in chief, Uncle “crazy” Joe has learned to live “high on the hog” using the taxpayers’ money.
Biden has apparently always played the dual roll of “poor man” and the “elite Senator,” depending on who he is with at the time. Some would say he is a very versatile phony. When he was contemplating running for president, Biden visited a church in Greenville. The church family prepared a fantastic breakfast of eggs, bacon, gravy, hot “cat head” biscuits and a variety of fruit and treated Biden with the highest degree of Southern hospitality.
Is it Ethical to Make Unethical Activities Legal and Profitable?

Hundreds of private citizens in South Carolina are appointed by elected officials to serve on state and county level boards and commissions. Most citizens who serve in these government positions are unpaid, but receive a few perks. And most seek these appointments for honorable purposes. They want to serve their communities, county or state to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the agencies they would oversee.
At the state level, appointed boards and commissions regulate the energy companies that operate a monopoly in the state and the department that contracts for road and bridge building and scores of others including medical and legal associations. Without adequate oversight, there are opportunities for these appointments to be enthusiastically sought after and very beneficial financially by those who would abuse their power.
