Republican Voters in Rebellion
- Details
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Having been active in the Republican Party for more than 30 years, I have observed and been part of efforts to reform the party from the ground up. As pressure has built to make the national and state parties more responsive and accountable to the people, the professional politicians and political consultants began to realize that their lucrative careers were in jeopardy. That is when they began to push back.
The sudden rise of the national Tea Party in the final months of the George W. Bush administration terrified the Republican Party leadership and fellow travelers. Hundreds of thousands of regular folks showed up in Washington, D. C. demanding smaller government, lower taxes and less intrusive bureaucrats. They were not led or controlled by the Republicans or Democrats, they were simply free Americans demanding better representation in Washington.

Refugee Resettlements Are A Risky, Billion Dollar Boondoggle!
- Details
- By Ron Tamaccio - Greenville, SC
People fleeing their homes in fear for their lives deserve help. However, the knowledgeable, thoughtful, and cautious among the compassionate think it’s better if that help comes in the form of temporary assistance, i.e., a “safe haven,” in their own, or nearby countries, with similar values and customs. Those who take the time to “think” instead of “react” also know that what these unfortunate people do not need – and, in most cases, do not even want - is a permanent relocation to another continent!
Regrettably, as with nearly all disasters, the charlatans and profiteers arrive. In this case, we have nine groups of “voluntary agencies” (VOLAGS), with names that sound like they are associated with a church or some other religious entity, competing for extremely lucrative government contracts, in 181 US cities, to assist the US State Department in carrying out the reckless and dangerous UN mandate to resettle refugees from the Middle East.

“Forced Diversity” Housing Coming to Suburbs

“They're Going to be Destroying Every Suburb That they Move into, Just as they've Done the Inner Cities”
“The Obama Administration is now redistributing poor inner city families to American Suburbs,” said Jesse Lee Peterson. “They’re going to be destroying every suburb that they move into, just as they’ve done the inner cities.”
The government is implementing the program mostly in secret. They are using third parties to purchase houses in the suburbs for single black mothers with children.
WND reported that the Housing Authority of Baltimore is secretly relocating Section 8 Subsidized housing families from the inner city into suburban homes.
The Rise of American Fabian Socialism
- Details
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
“But they are all equally culpable in waging a campaign that sooner or later, must destroy civilization, if allowed to run its ruinous course.”
Socialism. Progressivism, Fabianism and Communism have the same goals. They simply had and have different means of achieving those goals.
The Marxist socialists and German national socialists under Hitler were impatient and willing to kill thousands to achieve their goals quickly.
The European Fabian Socialists believed in achieving power gradually. The Communists failed to achieve victory over the United States using external military force and failed to make progress with the American people because the population is armed. Therefore, for several decades, the Communists have used the gradual approach so as not to panic the armed American people.

Survey Indicates Serious Problems
- Details
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
A just released survey of Muslims living in the United States discovered that a majority of those surveyed (51 percent) agreed that Muslims in America should have the choice of being governed according to shariah or the United States Constitution. When the same question was asked of the broad American population, the contrast was drastic. An overwhelming majority, 86 percent of Americans polled held that shariah should not displace the United States Constitution. More than half of US Muslims polled also believe that they should have their own tribunals to apply shariah. Only 39 percent of Muslims polled said Muslims in the U. S. should be subject to American courts.
Nearly 1 in 4 of the Muslims polled that are living in the United States believed that, “It is legitimate to use violence to punish those who give offense to Islam by, for example, portraying the prophet Mohammed.”

Schlafly: “Donald Trump Last Hope for America”
- Details
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
“He will fight for the issues that we really care about and are very hot at the present time, such as the Immigration Issue. I don't see anyone else who is eager to fight.”
On the eve of a presidential election year and the Iowa Caucuses less than two months away, there are danger signs on the horizon.
Hillary Clinton is the likely Democrat candidate. Her mendacity and alleged crimes are not a problem for her constituents who plan to win by “hook or crook.”
With Senator Lindsey Graham out of the race, there remain 13 Republican candidates. Most of the candidates are clinging to the moderate wing of the Republican Party that lost the last two elections to Barack Obama. Only Donald Trump and Ted Cruz stand out from the crowd as separate from the Republican Establishment.
Fanning the Flames of Hatred
- Details
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
An old adage that I recall from childhood appears more true today than ever. “If you give some people an inch, they will take a mile.”
Before current college-aged South Carolinians were born, schools and other institutions in this state were integrated and Jim Crow Laws scrapped with minimum turmoil. Later, lawmakers proclaimed national, state and county MLK Holidays and began naming highways, streets, schools and other landmarks for the late civil rights leader. MLK is the only American to be so honored.
Then came demands. “Remove the battle flag from the capitol dome or the NAACP will lead a boycott of the state.” In order to maintain peace, a compromise was reached and agreed to by all parties. The flag would be removed from the dome and placed appropriately at the memorial of the Confederate soldier on the capitol grounds. As part of the agreement, a large monument heralding Black history would be erected on the capitol grounds. The agreement was made into law.

Many concerned citizens are flocking to Donald Trump because they are convinced that the establishment Republicans are not committed to closing the borders and protecting citizens from an onslaught of foreigners that include an unknown number of committed terrorist.

Changing the Culture of the U. S. Military
- Details
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Secretary of Defense Ash Carter has announced he is opening all positions in the U. S. military to women. Obama has been pushing this unwise change for years. This decision will degrade the overall effectiveness of several critical elements of the United States defense establishment. The decision was not made of military necessity or to improve the military in any way. It was made to satisfy the career ambitions of a dozen or so senior military women and to degrade the military by those politicians who loathe the military and want to fundamentally change the United States of America to their twisted vision of a Socialist state.
It is clear that the Obama Administration has no interest in their decision’s impact on national defense or the impact on individual service women or their fellow service members.

Party Hacks May Decide the Republican Presidential Nominee
- Details
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
The first Republican presidential primaries will begin in a little more than two months. In theory and as most voters understand the system, the votes are tallied for each state and the winner of each state receives all the electoral votes. The candidate who receives the largest number of electoral votes will become the nominee of the party and will select their Vice Presidential Running Mate.
The Democrats will nominate and support Hilary Clinton as their candidate although she has a horrible record and could be charged and convicted of a variety of crimes should there be an Attorney General willing to serve the papers.
Pastor Lays Aside Political Correctness, Confronts Radical Islam

- By Bob Dill, Publisher
“It is Impossible to Defeat an Enemy you are Unwilling to Identify.”
On Sunday morning following the radical Islamic attacks on innocent civilians in Paris, Dr. Robert Jeffress Pastor of First Baptist Church in Dallas, Texas, dispensed with political correctness and provided a special message to his congregation. Dr. Jeffress and Pastor Donnie Swaggart have demonstrated boldness and courage that most pastors and elected officials have not yet exhibited.
The message now on U-tube lasts only 6 minutes and will be quoted as near verbatim as possible.
I feel like I need to address the tragedy we all witnessed this weekend in Paris. What should be our response to that tragedy? Certainly, as Christians, we should be praying for the victims and the victims families. Psalms 34 says, The Lord is close to those who are broken hearted.
