From the Department of How Convenient, we learn that state Supreme Court Justice Patricia Timmons-Goodson, a liberal who was originally backed by former governor and Democrat corruption king crony Mike Easley, is retiring from the bench before Gov. Bev Perdue slithers out of office in January. Under an executive order that Perdue decreed last year, […]
The day after the Presidential election, Rush Limbaugh said the results proved that people voted for Santa Claus. The point was that people voted for a government that would do things for them and give things to them. Limbaugh was savaged by the left and the media for saying this. Proving that either the critics […]
Swayed by a strong dose of, um, holiday spirits, I lost control of my mental faculties last week and was compelled to check in on the pre-Black Friday sale fight club at the Target in Blakeney. Never got into the store, and barely made it into the parking lot, which was swamped with barricades, cop cars, […]
There’s a new tax going into effect on January 1, 2013, and there isn’t a thing that can be done about it. It’s called the “New Medicare Tax on Unearned Income.” It is being assessed at a rate of 3.8% ~ not on payroll or earned income, as it has always been in the past, […]
Via the SGT Report: Another ‘Black Friday’ has come and gone. And it has left us with further evidence of the complete madness of the populace of our nation. America has been dealt a fatal blow by corporate greed, Bankster malfeasance and the insidious nature of collectivism – and it’s all been done to us […]
It amused me today when Brad and Britt, the latest drive time hosts on Charlotte’s 1110AM WBT, started talking about how they don’t buy lottery tickets until the jackpot reaches X amount. Why is that amusing? Because on yesterday’s show they were saying no investor would ever withhold their capital from investment if capital gains taxes […]
Superintendent Heath Morrison this week marked his first 100 days at Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools by unveiling his vision for moving the district forward, which includes a push for promoting “cultural competency” as a way to ensure that teachers, administrators, and overall district practices “reflect and embrace the diversity of CMS.” Part and parcel of the initiative […]
The week before last, lame-duck Governor Bev Perdue found a way to throw North Carolinians under the bus one last time before leaving office. As the deadline closed in for states to decide whether to help implement ObamaCare Exchanges or tell the Feds to take a hike, she buckled to pressure from the Left and […]
Over the holiday weekend there were a few developments in the much-feared (yet completely-avoidable) approaching fiscal cliff that caught my attention. First, some Republican lawmakers began agreeing to tax increases despite earlier promises not to do so. I know! I’m just as shocked as you that a politician would break a promise! Republican Senators Bob Corker (TN), Saxby Chambliss (GA), and Lindsey Graham […]
Would SOMEBODY please stand up for the fact that while “The One” was victorious at President, Republicans WON/expanded our majority in the House AND WON/expanded our majority in the Governors’ mansions!! We have just as much of a MANDATE as the administration and we should fight/defend that.
