American Police Under Siege
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Federal Officials Violating Constitution, Meddling in Local Affairs and with the aid of “Race Baters” Undermining Law Enforcement
American police are under siege. They are being targeted by a number of lawless gangs and “lone wolf” murderers. The critical situation came into focus last Saturday when an alleged gang member, with a long police record, traveled from Georgia to Baltimore and shot his former girlfriend before boasting that he was going to New York to kill cops.
About 3 pm. he shot and killed two New York policemen while they were sitting in their marked police car in the Bedford-Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn. The killer was later identified as Ismaaiyl Brinsley. He killed himself a few minutes later on a crowded Brooklyn subway platform.
Little Texas!
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
“Country” Hawkins, honorableMayor of Little Texas, was identified last week as hailing from Little Chicago. It was an error. He has never been there. He was ridiculed and we were embarrassed. To show our remorse we are providing a free tour of Little Chicago. There are two means of travel: Go to Gowensville and turn right or go to Holly Springs and turn left.
“Obama-nation” Is At It Again
- By David Thompson
Let’s call it “The Peanuts Rule.” Charles Schulz long running comic strip “Peanuts” features a number of characters, Charlie Brown and his nemesis Lucy among them. My least favorite story line was how gullible young Charlie always was to think that Lucy would alter her behavior, especially in pulling back the football. Really, how many times do one’s expectations go unfulfilled before a change in tactics gets implemented? Sorry, but the truth is that “Obama-nation” is also known as “slow-learners-R-us.”
Then again, rather than vilify the Lucy’s in your life perhaps she should serve as a cautionary tale for the naïve among us. Yes, let’s develop that story line a bit and realize we can’t keep doing the same thing over and over and expect a different result. Ronald Reagan, as he usually did, had it right when he said, “Trust, but verify.”
A Taste of Anarchy and It Was Ugly
- By Vivian Bradburn - Union, SC
The lawlessness we have witnessed in the streets of Ferguson, Missouri, and New York, is not about justice being done, nor about fairness of the law. Far from it. lt was about young black men who believe that affronting the law is cool and macho. What happened in Ferguson was tragic, and avoidable.
Whether Michael Brown was a teenager, or unarmed, is irrelevant. He had only to step upon the sidewalk and keep walking, as the officer asked him to. There was nothing intimidating or unmanly about that request, but when he chose to confront the officer, he confronted the law, and he took it a step too far. At eighteen years old, he knew the law. He was no innocent child, as the media tried to picture him, and he was far from helpless. As a result, the country and the rest of the world have watched the sickening demonstrations of rioting and burning, and irrational displays of hate, and disrespect for the law. Blame has been heaped upon the officer who was doing his job, and defending himself (officers still have that right).
The Dangerous Years
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
As a student of and a participant in a brief segment of Military History, it is my deeply held view that the next two years may be the most precarious and dangerous years the American people have faced since the 1860s, or maybe ever. The sad and tragic aspect of our situation is that we have brought it on ourselves by deliberate actions or through naïve ignorance.
Call me old-fashioned or a fanatic or whatever you choose, but in my view, most of us and all of our elected officials are looking for solutions in all the wrong places. Political parties and liberal judges don’t have the solutions. Before you can find a solution, you must define the problem. Our current national leaders can’t even bring themselves to call terrorists and known enemies by the right names. How can they be trusted to find workable solutions in our national interest?
Durocher Family Band Bring Bluegrass/Gospel Ministry to S.C.
- By Jeff West
The Durocher Family Band recently blessed South Carolina with their music ministry. The Durocher Family is a family band led by Paul and Judy Durocher, parents of twelve homeschooled children, nine of whom compose their bluegrass/gospel band. Together all eleven of them travel around the country in a motorhome, performing their music and spreading the gospel. They also present a ministry through their example of being homeschooled. The Durochers recently played at Rev. E. Ray Moore’s Exodus Mandate ministry banquet, and later at Rev. Moore’s church in Columbia. The Durocher Family is extremely talented, playing a mixture of predominantly Christian songs, some originals which they have written and arranged, along with traditional bluegrass standards. They have wonderful harmonies and instrumentation, blending banjo, mandolin, fiddle, guitar, bass and cello to produce beautiful music praising God.

GOP Suicide: Amnesty Now, Gun Control Next, Gone in 2016
- By Mike Scruggs
“Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad.”
The origin of the quotation, “Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad” is ancient and unknown. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow has Prometheus say the words in his poem, The Masque of Pandora. Because it has the meter and theme common to ancient Greek tragedies, it was once attributed to Euripides (480-406 BC). However, very similar quotations appear to be even more ancient. A common ancient variation attributes a man’s destruction to foolishness, especially in the sense of moral blindness, confused judgment, or willful rejection of self-evident truth. Several Biblical passages have this theme. Romans 1:22 says it plainest of all: “Claiming to be wise, they became fools.”
Fireworks Under the Big Tent
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Has the Republican Party declared war on Republicans? The first shots were fired during the last Republican National Convention, when obvious dirty tricks were played on key conservative delegates at critical times and during critical votes. Some were delayed from entering the convention floor. Others were kept on buses and not allowed to exit. It was the beginning of top down direction of the GOP. It is nothing new. The RNC is not being creative, they are simply copying the unethical practices of the liberal Democrats, and tragically, for the party and the republic, they have recruited “willful idiots” to support their agenda at the state and county level across the “fruited plane.”
In January, the United States Senate will have 54 members that call themselves Republicans. The House of Representatives will have a larger majority of members calling themselves Republicans than the current membership.
Chumley Leads Call for Special Session on Marriage
- By Chris Sullivan
Using the Power of the Purse to Preserve Traditional Marriage
State Representative Bill Chumley (R-Spartanburg) is working with other conservatives to craft a response to the efforts of a few Federal judges to force South Carolina to legalize homosexual marriage. Rather than waiting on the legislature to convene in January, Rep. Chumley and other supporters of traditional marriage are calling on Governor Nikki Haley to call a special session of the General Assembly before more damage can be done by the Federal courts.
“We have to move quickly,” Chumley said. “Every day the Federal courts and their liberal enablers are working to destroy the traditional values of our society and marriage is the main line of attack.”

Wake Up Sheeple!
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Wake up sheeple! The hour is late and the windows of opportunity are closing. The agenda being implemented by the sixties radicals now in control of the Democrat Party is clear. There is no longer a need to speculate or depend upon some political analyst to give their analysis and interpretation of what these people are doing to our Constitutional Republic that they have incorrectly re-designated a Democracy.
They are a coalition of radical leftists, socialists and communists who prefer to be addressed by the politically-correct and deceptive label: Progressives. They are indoctrinated in and implementing the teachings of Sol Alinsky found in his book, Rules for Radicals, combined with the Cloward-Piven strategy.
County Republican Leadership Driving out Tea Party Conservatives
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Conservative Input Virtually Shut Out of Last Two Meetings
“Establishment” Republicans are now clearly in charge of the County Executive Committee. With the election of Attorney Chad Groover chairman, in a matter of months, Tea Party presence that one year ago had a strong presence in the Executive Committee has been driven out or quit in protest. The remaining few have been silenced by the chairman.
Veteran party leaders who have worked to keep Greenville County out of the clutches of RINOs (Republicans in Name Only), are becoming discouraged .

Reward Offered for Flag Vandal Arrest

Greer Residents “Devastated” by Desecration of American Flag on Lighted Pole In Upscale Neighborhood
On Wednesday, November 26, the day before Thanksgiving, Joe Barnett and his wife awoke to find their American and South Carolina flags cut from their twenty-foot lighted flag pole. They found the flags torn and on the ground. The American flag had been cut from the stars to the end of the third white stripe form the top.
The couple were devastated by what they found in their yard, because someone(s) had not only trespassed their private property, but had desecrated the American flag in this manner.
The incident was reported to the Greer Police Department and an award of $500 is being offered for information leading to the arrest of the one(s) responsible.
This vicious and premeditated property destruction and flag desecration is especially hurtful for the Barnett family as their son is currently serving his country in harms way.

He Did It!
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Nikita Kruchev boasted that the United States would be destroyed from within. Barack Obama arrogantly bragged that he would fundamentally transform our republic. Both are on the verge of being proven correct.
Few Americans believe the current national Republican leadership has the wisdom, will or desire to reverse the Obama agenda. That leaves divine intervention as the only hope for future generations of Americans to remain free.
Two historic events took place in the United States earlier this month. Voters overwhelmingly rejected the Democrat Party, their President and the policies of their government. Republicans were given control of the Senate with a comfortable majority and they were given an increase in their majority in the House. This remarkable achievement gives the Republicans a probable “last” chance to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States from being destroyed by “enemies, foreign and domestic.” They have taken a solemn oath to do so. Now we will see if they have the wisdom and backbone to keep their word and live up to their oath of office.

Now we Know: Lying is Progressive Public Policy
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
MIT Professor Jonathan Gruber may be the last truthful Progressive Democrat. He has stated and even boasted that people who passed and supported the Obamacare Law were “duped.” Now that the law is being implemented, Gruber, a $5.9 million architect of the “big lie” implemented by Obama and the Democrat Congress, is being shown in videos explaining why it was necessary to lie to get the bill passed and advocated by the liberal media and Obama supporters.
This Obamacare insider understands the typical Obama supporters and the well-meaning ignorant voters who are too complacent to read factual information such as appears on these pages each week. Instead they act and vote on emotional appeals by lying Progressives who prefer that title to “liberal” or “Communist.”
Gruber stated at the University of Pennsylvania: “Lack of transparency is a huge political advantage. Call it the stupidity of the American voter, or whatever. But basically, that was really, really, critical to getting the thing (Affordable Care Act) to pass.”
