In the shadow of the political assassination of Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning USA, a stain now exists upon our nation's collective conscious, a condition that must be excised, or our nation will not function properly as one of a self-governed people. Understanding these long standing truths: What would you suggest as a quick, and, or proper corrective measure?
20% Destroy the Fascist Donald Trump and all of MAGA, because America must never be Great Again.
80% Our self-governed people, and their properly restored institutions, under President Trump, must discover the root causes to properly correct, and save our Constitutional Republic.
0% I thought we had to shut down Free Speech we don't like to save our "democracy," so I am totally confused now.

It's interesting. Over and over we hear the Dems repeating one of their prime talking points. It goes something like this: "Where is the detail in the Reps proposals??".

So now we know the Prez' recipe for beer or ale or whatever they are brewing up at the white house. Apparently the key ingredient is honey from the white house hive.

What ever became of the Bill of Rights?? Specifically; Amendment I (Freedom of Religion, Speech and the Press: Rights of Assembly and Petition), Amendment II (The Right to Bear Arms), and Amendment X (Powers Retained by the States and the People).

If you turn on the TV news, you will likely hear about the anarchists who are planning to disrupt both the Rep and Dem conventions. Lovely people, all.

The Prez is reported to have taken his wife and kids to church last Sunday (8/19) at a church near the WH. (I would guess it had to be a "Christian" church.) That would make the second or third (or maybe even fourth) time he has gone to church since he was anointed.

We keep hearing that the Anointed One is taking of over $700B out of the medicare trust fund to fund Obamacare. We are told that won't hurt Medicare at all because all the money is "savings" that the Dems are going to realize.

Question for Mitt Romney: When you worked at Bain did the company do your taxes or did you take your W-2s, 1099s and whatever other "tax" documents you received to a CPA who prepared your taxes??

Since 1962 when Rachel Carson wrote her ground breaking book "Silent Spring" a lot of things in the environmental arena that needed to be changed got changed - mostly for the better.

We are being told that some very large percentage (well over half) of the American population is partaking of (and presumably enjoying) the largess of government entitlement spending.

We hear a lot of conversation these days about how America is losing (has already lost??) it's edge. We are no longer "exceptional". We even have a "ruler" who preaches those things and apologizes to foreign kings, satraps and the like for what he seems to view as our country's past transgressions.

Sometimes it is difficult to understand things the Prez says. Take, for instance, his comments to the effect that people who have "succeeded" have not done so by themselves.

Every time something even remotely contentious rear it's ugly head, we hear politicians, both pro and con, spinning the facts to ensure that anyone who hears whatever it is, gets the "true" story.

The other day I was reading the monthly magazine produced by my electric co-op (Carolina Country July, 2012). In it there was an interesting opinion piece written by Mr. Michael Burnette, Senior VP and COO for power supply at North Carolina Electric Membership Corporation.

How do you suppose our Governess ever got to be our Governess?? I'm starting to believe (yes, I'll admit to being a slow learner) that if she had a brain, she might be dangerous (as the old saying goes).

Mowing your lawn is usually a rather boring activity, but it does give you an (pretty much) uninterrupted opportunity to contemplate the great mysteries of the universe - or something.

There was an article in the 6/29 issue of the WDN (page 3, News Briefs) that said the NC backers of the NC private tuition law have given up (for now).

It was interesting to hear about Mitt romney's alleged bad behavior while in Prep School (not elementary school, not middle school, not high school but "Prep School". (Ahhh, the beauty of not so subtle class warfare.)

The Beaufort County Commissioners would seem to have done it again. They sit idly by while one of their own seems to be trying to take charge of things (presumably to remake them in his own image - surely thereby enhancing his own stature).

We hear the Prez talking to the Russian President and telling him that after the election he will have more latitude to do things (than he does in the run-up to the election).

A couple of weeks ago in looking at the latest county budget recommendation coming out of the Office of the County Manager, I offered up some comments about the Rte. 17 lobbyist, questioning the amount of money we are spending on the activity and the results that have been achieved.

Educating our kids is an expensive proposition. Some blame the dismal results we achieve on the teacher's unions and their work rules, class size, tenure, lack of parental interest, the breakdown of the family, poverty.

Fortunately for Attorney General Eric Holder, his confirmation hearings happened at a time when the Dems were in firm control of both houses of Congress, otherwise the results might have been different.

It sure looks as though Beaufort County has hit the "Big Time" We have our own lobbyist (well, at least part of one).

If there are any among us who believe that a reassessment will result in an overall reduction in taxes, much less even a revenue neutral situation, I have a bridge I'll sell them.

It is amazing how many things politicians and bureaucrats can think up for other people to do. We are repeatedly directed to implement all manner of great sounding things.

I downloaded the 2013 County budget (all 168 pages) and have been through every page in it. I worked my way through it one page at a time to get a "fix" on what's in it.

The foxes seem to be massing around the hen house. According to a front page article in the 5/1 edition of the WDN, the meeting called a few days ago by the EDC chairman to announce his retirement.

The chief community organizer is ready to require many lenders to "swallow" a good part of their income on loan balances on houses that are "underwater".

I was thinking about running for County Commissioner, but had to rethink the idea because the field had become so crowded (especially with all the Dems running in the Rep primary).

We hear that figures don't lie - but we all know (or should know) that liars figure. So be careful. In places like MN and IA it would seem that the so called "figuring" is really simply counting (or is it mis-counting??).

It's interesting that the Anointed One finds fault with the "unelected" Supreme Court. This as he brings on board countless numbers of Czars who are neither elected nor even congressionally vetted or approved.
