Remember Pearl Harbor!
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
On December 7, 1941, I was 9-years old. It was Sunday. I was sitting in my father’s 1937 Ford in front of my grandfather’s house listening to the car radio when the Pearl Harbor attack was announced. My grandfather did not own a radio or a car. He was a country preacher, farmer and house painter. A horse, buggy, wagon or sled provided his transportation. At the time, he had 8 daughters and 5 sons living. Four of the sons bad served in the military. The oldest, Alonzo, served in France in World War I, Dan had served a tour in the Navy, Jim had served in the Army in the Pacific and Paul had joined the United States Marines and served in Panama, Nicaragua and Haiti. Joe, the youngest, was in his late teens and living at home.
DOD Making Plans to Close Military Commissaries
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Benefit to Troops and Families Second only to Medical Care
The Obama Department of Defense is seriously considering closing all military commissaries as part of the 2015 Defense Budget.
Closing 178 stores in the United States and 70 overseas, the closing would save approximately $1.4 billion annually. Salaries for employees are included in the Defense Budget. Commissary customers pay a 5 percent surcharge on all purchases in the stores to fund construction and maintenance of facilities, equipment and supplies. Titles to the multi-million dollar facilities paid for by troops and their families are donated to the government. It is a good deal for the taxpayers.

WWII Pilot Training A Dangerous Mission
- By James Moore
Hall Remembers his Service during an Unforgettable Time
In remembrance of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor that happened 72 years ago on December 7, I sat down with a WWII vet to get his take on this fateful event.
On the day of the attack, Frank Hall and his friend hitchhiked into town to watch The Last of the Mohicans at the theater. While they were watching the movie a typed messaged was projected on the screen that read, the Japs just bombed Pearl Harbor. Hall remembers that gasps were heard within the darkness and a bunch of people got up and rushed out. At that moment in time Hall didn’t know where Pearl Harbor was located and thought it was a town in China since they had been warring with the Japanese for quite some time. It wasn’t until he phoned his mother that he found out that the attack was on American soil. In shock, he returned home to be with his family and listen to the message from the president urging for Congress to return. Hall was 15 years old at the time.

Sherry Few, founder of South Carolina Parents Involved in Education, addressed the Greenville County Republican Party Executive Committee, Monday night. The topic was “Common Core” education standards.
SCPIE describes Common Core as “an attempt by Washington, D. C. special interest groups and the Federal Government to herd the states, and our children, into one-size-fits-all national standards.”

Happy Thanksgiving!
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Despite all the lies, deception and fraud taking place around us, most of us have much to be thankful for. It is my desire to use this space for something positive for a change. So here goes.
I have been blessed to live in this constitutional republic during what I believe have been its greatest years. My generation survived the great depression and came out stronger. We saw parents, uncles and neighbors leave for World War II, defeat the tyrants, and return to fuel the greatest economic engine and produce the highest standard of living the world has ever known.

- By James Moore
With one in four children in South Carolina going to bed hungry every night, Harvest Hope commits 98 cents out of every dollar donated to feeding the hungry. The money donated provides emergency food to 20 counties in SC, and every dollar becomes five meals for hungry people in their service area.

The Emergency Food Pantry will provide those in need with a 5 to 6 day supply of food. Food packages vary depending on donations, but usually include non-perishable items such as fruit, vegetables, bread, meat, and dried goods. These food packages can provide the basis for balanced and nutritious meals for the families that are served.
Veterans Report Problems Despite New Facility
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Veterans without VA Healthcare must Get Obamacare or Have Assessment added to Their Income Tax.
Just a few weeks ago, the Veterans Administration cut the ribbon officially opening the new elaborate Greenville Outpatient Clinic. Politicians, developers and administrators heaped praise on each other on that occasion, however, a Town Hall Meeting held at the facility last Thursday was well attended by veterans with complaints. Their comments indicated that the elaborate clinic may be understaffed and less than responsive to some veterans’ alleged problems and concerns. Information provided regarding Obamacare did not add to the comfort level of most veterans.

Winn Freeman “The Drug Guy”: Living Example of God’s Power and Grace
Reprint April 4, 2007
“Everybody’s in recovery and nobody’s talking about a cure!”
Winn Freeman believes that those who are imprisoned by addiction don’t have to stay in recovery for the rest of their lives. “You move beyond recovery. That’s where life begins.” He and those who follow his Bible-based training are living examples that it’s training, commitment and discipline, not treatment that leads to a different lifestyle and lasting freedom from addiction to drugs and alcohol.

Tens of Millions Spent on State Agency Travel
- By Rick Brundrett from "The Nerve"
From “The Nerve”
As South Carolina struggles to recover from the Great Recession, state agencies in recent years have increased spending on travel in and out of the Palmetto State.
A review by The Nerve of annual state travel reports by S.C. Comptroller General Richard Eckstrom found that the total amount spent on travel increased from $61.9 million in fiscal 2009 to more than $69.6 million last fiscal year, which ended June 30 – a jump of more than $7.7 million, or 12.5 percent.
The totals include in-state and out-of-state conference registration fees; and travel, lodging and meal expenses for non-state employees under contract with state agencies. Expenditures paid from state, federal and “other” revenues, as listed in the annual state budget bill, are covered in the reports.
The Cold, Hard Facts of Life
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Now is the time for all good Americans to face the cold, hard facts of life. We must put aside our naïve idealism and accept the hard cruel truth that we are past the wonderful years when we could “tune out” problems that do not impact us personally. In the not too distant past, with a high degree of confidence, we could assume that all would end well because all always had ended well in our constitutional republic blessed by God and led by patriotic, freedom loving elected officials.
Five years ago Americans willingly voted for change without knowing what change they were voting for. They had been taught a revisionist History and many Americans sincerely believed that it was time for black Americans to have their own president as reparation for mistreatment of their ancestors.

VA Forcing Chaplains from Service for Quoting Scripture, Praying in the Name of Jesus

Veterans Affairs Secretary Eric Shinseki Sued by Attorneys for Baptist Group
Two Baptist chaplains have said they were forced out of a Veterans Affairs chaplain-training program after they refused orders to “stop quoting the Bible” and “stop praying in the name of Jesus.”
This is a pattern of anti-Christian behavior that has surfaced throughout the Obama administration aimed at military personal both active and retired.
Navy Chaplain Lt. Commander Dan Klender and retired Army chaplain Major Steven Firtko had enrolled in the VA’s Clinical Pastoral Education Center program in San Diego last year.
Obama Appointees Transforming Army Medicine
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Described by Surgeon General as “cultural shift” from health care to lifestyle change
The most recent edition of the official Army newsletter to retired soldiers, surviving spouses and families includes a message from the first woman to hold the title of U. S. Army Surgeon General. The title of the article by Lt. Gen. Patricia Horoho is titled Transforming Army medicine from a healthcare system to a system for health.
Gen. Horoho acknowledges that many improvements in battlefield medicine have been developed and perfected resulting in the saving of many lives during the recent decade of warfare that would have been lost in previous wars.
Beware of Prophets Obsessed with Obama
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
In the midst of a war on terror, sometimes referred to as “workplace violence” suddenly we begin hearing stories of non-terrorists terrorizing people. The latest was Miriam Carey, who reportedly was designated the “Prophet of Stamford, Connecticut,” who was said to be obsessed with President Obama and believed he was electronically monitoring her home and communicating with her.
She may have been attempting to visit Obama when she drove 270 miles to the White House with her 18-month old child and crashed through a blockade at the White House. Her actions caused the Secret Service and Police to take suit and finally force her out of her car near the Nation’s Capitol where the unarmed woman was shot and killed. The shooting and death of an unarmed black woman is shrouded in controversy and secrecy. There were allegedly 15 bullet holes in her car. The child was unharmed and there was no report on how many bullets hit the woman. It was reported that she was shot and killed after departing the vehicle.

Greenville County GOP Votes to Censure Senator Graham
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Resolution in support of the Replacement of Senator Lindsey Graham as Senator for the State of South Carolina passed by a margin of two to one
The Greenville County Republican Party Executive committee voted Monday night to censure South Carolina senior Senator Lindsey Graham.
The vote in favor of the resolution was 53 to 26 opposed. The measure that had been introduced in August was passed with little debate. Although the vote was lopsided against Graham, it revealed an increase in Graham supporters in the Executive Committee over votes to censure in previous years.
In other business, Attorney Samuel Harms gave a much awaited presentation on the status of the County GOP lawsuit seeking change to the South Carolina voting laws that are believed to be unconstitutional as they pertain to the primary and convention candidate selection processes. The presentation was given in executive session with only Executive Committeemen and precinct presidents and other party officers present, in compliance with attorney client rules.
No, We Don’t Have a Plan to Blow up the Bridge—or the Healthcare System
- By Jane M. Orient
If it’s your bridge, and not one being used by the enemy in wartime, you would want to obstruct a plan to destroy it. But what if the plan is called “healthcare reform”?
Republicans are lambasted for not having a Plan. In fact, they have had many proposals to decrease costs, improve patient care, and expand access to medical care. But the great universal Plan for healthcare reform? That’s one the Republicans, and most Americans, oppose—if “healthcare reform” means compulsory government-funded “insurance” and the destruction of private medicine, private insurance, freedom of choice, and traditional medical ethics. This used to be called “socialized medicine.”
Kruzing on the Right Track
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Texas Republican Senator Ted Kruz has upset Democrats and Establishment Republicans by failing to follow the Republican Party leadership that wants to avoid a confrontation with Harry Reid and Barack Obama and just sit back and allow Obamacare to fail on it’s own and embarrass the Democrats. Then, they reason, the Democrats will allow the Republicans to help them fix the failed system and make it better.
That strategy sounds reasonable to citizens who somehow remain unaware of who Barack Obama is and what his agenda means to the future of our constitutional republic. All they would have to do to understand Obama’s every move would be to read a little about Sol Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals and the Howard Piven methods.

One of the attendees Saturday the 28th at an all-day training session said, “ Now I see what to do and its not all that hard.” She is one of the 14 that have joined the new Advocacy Center sponsored by the Greenville Tea Party.
“South Carolina lags behind her neighboring states on important factors that make life better. What is the problem?” asks Don Rogers, who along with Bill McShea, are heading up the new effort to change specific laws in the state. “Many of our state laws make us less productive, less educated, less healthy, less safe, and less free. Laws are made in Committees; we the people need to be there free-of charge in reserve VIP seats” Rogers declared.
Criminalizing the Right? Military Labels Founding Fathers “Extremist”
- By The New American - 9-23-13
Defense Department documents, obtained by Judicial Watch through a Freedom of Information Act request, purporting to train U.S. soldiers and sailors label the Founding Fathers of the United States as “extremists” and claim that “participation in extremism is inconsistent with the duties of military service.”
The documents, compiled from a January 2013 lecture on “Extremism” by the Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute, claim:
In U.S. history, there are many examples of extremist ideologies and movements. The colonists who sought to free themselves from British rule and the Confederate states who sought to secede from the Northern states are just two examples.
