House Update
Thanks for all the calls and e-mails of support for my sister and our family; the prayers and kind words have been greatly appreciated. Beth had surgery this week and her doctors are confident that they were able to remove the whole cancerous tumor from her liver, providing for a very positive prognosis moving forward. […]
Where’s RoMo?
So I’m watching a clip of Attorney General Eric Holder sweating it in front of a House Judiciary oversight committee investigating the wholesale and deadly failure of Operation Fast and Furious, parsing words in an attempt to prevent burying himself even deeper into a pit of illegalities, perjury and criminality, and I’m pretty sure I […]
Wake County GOP Slips On Red Hat Banana Peel
The Charlotte City Council isn’t alone in doling out lucrative incentive deals and perk packages for select companies, rolling dice with taxpayer money by trying to pick winners and losers so politicians can claim they’ve created jobs. While our Democrat-led city council was busy throwing boatloads of taxpayer loot at big banana Chiquita, the Republican-majority […]
Liberals are Compassionate With Other People’s Money

US dollar denominated trade with the Euro-zone and other European […]
Sheep, Donkeys, and Dupes – Moving Toward Extortion
It has been said that people possess a herd mentality. If some admired (for whatever reason) person makes a testimonial supporting some product or another, that is supposed to inspire other people to go out and buy that product. Advertising has used this endorsement tool forever. It evidently has a proven track record. Joe Namath […]
“Honey, Rich is Better” – Tallulah Bankhead’s Secret Recipe for Seizing Power
Let’s face it. The GOP is the Party of Rectitude. The Democrats are the Party of Fun. Until we turn this confounded situation around, conservatives are going to lose a lot more elections than we need to. The GOP needs, deserves, and by jingo should have, its own Lady Gagas and Katy Perrys and their […]
Bananas for Charlotte, or Charlotte Just Bananas?
City of Charlotte to small entrepreneur: “Your business privilege tax is due immediately.” City of Charlotte to billion-dollar mega-corp: “Here’s millions of dollars from our citizens and existing businesses. We know we have an unfavorable tax climate, but we like *you* so we’ll help you out. The rest of the local riff raff can just […]
