- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Students Denied Credit for Attending the Corsi Lecture
Almost a hundred people showed up at Furman Hall to hear a presentation by Harvard educated New York Times bestselling author Dr. Jerome Corsi, Monday evening. There was a noticeable absence of students in the audience.
A student spokesman said a faculty committee had decided there was a “gap” between Dr. Corsi’s Harvard PhD and his six bestselling books and the topic he was to speak on at Furman. As a result, he was declared unqualified to speak and therefore virtually all of the small group of students in attendance were members of the sponsoring organization – The Conservative Students for a Better Tomorrow(CSBT).

Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio has Formed ‘Cold Case Posse’ to Investigate President’s Eligibility
The Times Examiner had an opportunity to discuss current events with Dr. Jerome R. Corsi prior to his presentation at Furman University, Monday evening. During the discussion, he received a phone call regarding his conversation with Arizona Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio that morning.
When asked if he thought Obama would prevail through the 2012 election, Dr. Corsi said in his view “there is a fifty-fifty chance” that the powers that be in the Democrat party will convince Obama to withdraw from the race. He believes the logical replacement would be Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
An Observer’s View of the Senate - DOT Hearing
- Details
- By J. Don Rodgers

In a rare off-season public hearing held Thursday, the Senators of the Transportation Committee sought urgently to determine why the Department of Transportation could not pay certain private contractors multi-million dollars owed for highway projects already completed. Numerous contractors were forced to lay off employees and some were facing bankruptcy because for the first time DOT was apparently unable to pay tens of millions of dollars of obligations to these contractors, and was also in arrears with the State Infrastructure Bank. This is certainly an urgent and shocking revelation.

And Now a Word from our (?????) in Chief

I remember an exchange last year between Don Imus and his now late, but still great, brother Fred. Don asked if Fred had watched the Presidential Address on TV the night before. “Yes, I did” said Fred. “But about 30 seconds into it I realized he wasn’t going to resign so I turned it off.” Amen, Fred.
Last month we watched a world class cat fight in the Congressional litter box. The whole point was to trim the dead weight off the budget and get our spending under control. Personally, I thought we did a great job of clearly communicating the message: Stop spending!!! It seems I was wrong. Obama wants more spending.

Rep. Trey Gowdy told the combined Greenville County and Upstate Republican women’s clubs Wednesday, Aug. 31, that “compromise is only one-way street in Washington.
“They want us to compromise when we are in power, and they can do what they want when they are in power. With civility we must be unyielding in our convictions.”
Gowdy referred to Sen. Jim DeMint, the luncheon’s first speaker, as the father of the modern-day constitutional conservative movement. Gowdy asked that DeMint give prayerful consideration to running for president. He said his dream ticket is either DeMint and Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin or DeMint and Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida.
