Former Mayor Pro Tem Susan Burgess was the consummate political animal, somebody who could work a vote count and know exactly what concessions needed to be made or demanded to achieve a desired result. I mean that as a compliment. Burgess, who is battling terminal cancer, resigned her seat on council last week with an […]
Last week, Forsyth County GOP Chairman Nathon Tabor was punched by an Obama supporter during a rally outside of Congressman Mel Watts office. Now, even the Democrat Congressmen are getting in on the assaults. This is just shameful behavior. Call Congressman Etheridge at 202-225-4531 or 888-262-6202 and tell him that North Carolinians will not stand […]

Leave it to big government to create a blue-ribbon commission that’s supposed to solve our crippling national debt crisis and, instead, ends up needing a financial bailout of its own. The Daily Caller has the details here.
It’s refreshing to see that the Main Stream Media is actually taking a serious look at an Obama administration scandal. Unlike the “Messiah” of two years ago, today’s all too human Obama is actually being held to some ethical standards (if by “held to” you mean “caught by”).

Most folks these days know Pete Kaliner as the nine-to-midnight talker on WBT 1110-AM. People with a little longer memory know that Kaliner was also one of the best frontline news reporters to cover a beat in Char-Meck.
