Bill James: The Anti-Conservative?

If Commissioner Bill James finds historical records of voting and advocating for public television station WTVI reasons that his Republican primary opponent Ed Driggs is not a “real conservative,” then the record needs to also show that by the same type reasoning, Bill James is not a fiscal conservative. In my possession is a copy [...]

Containing Iran and Maintaining Peace

No serious person can perceive Iran as anything but an enemy. From the Iran Hostage Crisis to the Ayatollahs’ vision of a world without America, Iran habitually provokes the United States. Recent events aren’t likely to warm the relationship. In fact, the Persian Gulf is simmering toward a boil. Naval exercises in the Persian Gulf, [...]

Gaston County Smacks Down Agenda 21

Gaston County commissioners have done something very good for which we should all be thanking them. They recently voted unanimously to adopt a resolution rejecting Agenda 21 and all of the tenets therein – a United Nations doctrine that has been wrecking the sovereignty of the United States for years.

Obama Picks Consumers’ Pockets with Energy Policy

A milestone was just reached when gas prices at the pump increased 100% from an average price of around $1.79 per gallon when Barack Obama took office as president.  Today’s average price of around $3.60 per gallon takes a significant chunk of money out of the U.S. economy, having a huge negative impact on almost [...]

It’s Raining Coin

Like most other “rich” people, I slept in this morning; rolled out from under the spun-gold sheets at the crack of noon, showered in Evian and went outside to fill up my humungous money bucket with the golden coins that fall out of the sky on people like me. No, no really – that’s where [...]

A Perspective On Job Creation

With the Bureau of Labor Statistics(BLS) announcement that over 200,000 jobs were created in December,  the main stream media has taken to reporting the favorable opinions of administration officials and politicians that fell mostly into the “stay the course” and the “ we’re on the right track” type of comments.  Lacking from the reports was [...]

A Teacher, a Veteran, a Postal Worker, and a Fireman Walk Into a Restaurant…

Sound like the start of a joke to you?  Well the joke’s on you if you happened to be a Democrat who entered the Obama campaign’s national contest to have lunch with the President thinking you had as good a chance to win as the next guy.  What are the chances that a teacher, an [...]

Commissioner Jennifer Roberts might not be at the head of the table anymore, but tax increases seem to be the order of the day unless what we are reading is leaving something out. County officials are working on a scheme to levy a new tax. They call it a “new funding vehicle for delivery of [...]
