“Fearless” Texan Backed by DeMint Rising Force in GOP
South Carolina Republicans honored Former Senator Jim DeMint and his wife, Saturday, May 4, during the 46th annual Silver Elephant Celebration in Columbia. Texas Senator Ted Cruz was the dynamic guest speaker.
Cruz, whose parents escaped Castro’s Cuba, said he would not be in the United States Senate today were it not for Jim DeMint who campaigned for him and several other conservative senators including Rand Paul and Marco Rubio, who are making headlines in Washington. (More about DeMint in the next issue).
Cruz connected with his South Carolina audience immediately by invoking the name Travis and another South Carolinian who fought to the death in defense of the Alamo.
Amnesty Will Cost $6.3 Trillion

- By Mike Scruggs
The Heritage Foundation has just released its cost estimate for the Amnesty portion only of the Schumer-Rubio or "Gang-of-Eight" U.S. Senate "comprehensive immigration reform" bill, S.477. The Heritage report's author, Robert Rector, believes $6.3 Trillion is a conservative minimal estimate.
Adding $6.3 Trillion to an already dangerous $16.5 Trillion debt is reason enough for public alarm or for any sane member of Congress to vote against it. However, the Schumer-Rubio Senate bill contains far more special interest goodies than amnesty, as disastrous as amnesty for 11 million illegal immigrants would be.

Free Electricity at Taxpayer’s Expense
- Details
- By James "Chip" Moore
In 2009 Greenville County installed dual electric car charging stations with funds awarded through the Recovery Act: County of Greenville, SC Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant. These stations are located outside of 301 University Ridge. For over three years these charging stations have been available to the public free of charge.
The electricity that powers each station ties into the building’s electricity and is not a separate entity. Although it is reported that the stations are used sparingly, the funds to support these stations come out of the building’s electricity fund.
The purpose of the award is to implement the County’s Energy Efficiency and Conservation Strategy in order to reduce fossil fuel emissions; reduce total energy use of eligible entities; and improve energy efficiency in the building sector, transportation sector, and other appropriate sectors, along with creating jobs.

- By Press Release
This week, Samuel Harms announced that he was running for Chairman of the South Carolina Republican Party. Harms is the former Chairman of the Greenville County Republican Party. In his announcement that he was running, Harms stated that when he was responsible for precinct reorganization, 1069 people came to the precinct meetings in Greenville County. It was the largest reorganization effort in the State that year, and the largest in Greenville County for approximately the past 20 years.

Cash To Challenge Lindsey Graham
- Details
- By James "Chip" Moore
Powdersville businessman Richard Cash has announced that he will run against Senator Lindsey Graham. Cash declared an official candidacy in his home county, speaking before the Anderson County GOP Convention on Monday night, April 15th. In 2010, Cash came close to capturing the GOP nomination for the third congressional district, losing in a run-off by a narrow margin to Rep. Jeff Duncan.
Cash says, “After 20 years in Washington, Senator Graham is out of touch with South Carolina values and voters. It is time for a new voice in Washington. We need a voice that represents Christian, conservative, and Republican principles instead of the latest bi-partisan ‘deal’ that simply makes matters worse.”
