A lot has been written in the past two weeks about the Republican infighting in Raleigh and the negative impacts it’s having on Team Tillis’s campaign for the US Senate. The most current round of that fighting may be coming to an end with reports of a “framework” to end the budget stalemate between the more […]
We’ve all heard the PEW Research Center’s cliche that likens vote fraud to getting struck by lightning, but now we understand how they get away with that nonsense: the key is prosecutions…and those things are hard to get! For example, the first five of our Florida and NC (FLANC) double voters have finally reached a level of […]
What passes for reasonable thought by those opposed to religion is exemplified by the letter of Jeff McKelvey found in the Charlotte Observer’s July 9 edition. He says in part: “…But when religious schools receive public funds, the government is forcing me – through my taxes – to support a religious institution. That is precisely what […]
Last week, it was reported HERE that we may have been saved from a referendum fight over increasing the local sales tax. The NC Senate was looking to pass a bill that would cap local option sales tax at 2.5%. Since Mecklenburg already charges that, the referendum would essentially be voided. However, due once again […]
Splitting the conservative vote by supporting a candidate other than the nominee is a controversial activity indeed. Despite the Republican Party undermining real conservatives and conservative values on a regular basis, those of us refusing to yet again lend them our support in their quest for authority are considered the traitors and political heretics. Well, […]
Hello friends! I’m obviously more of an activist than a journalist, so I figured I’d share a couple items that my fellow activists might be interested in.

Ardent supporters of the President will point to the new stock market highs, the falling unemployment rate and a few other economic reports and say: ‘See? His policies worked! All we needed to do was more of the same and think about how great things would be today!’ If that is true, how come so many […]
Consider this a public service announcement for PunditHouse readers. How many of you were aware there was going to be a constitutional amendment on the ballot this November? I only found out about this amendment referendum in early April of this year so don’t feel bad if you answered in the negative. I have asked […]
Residents attended the July 7 meeting of the Cornelius Board of Commissioners after learning that the NC-DOT was scheduled to present their plan for the construction of i-77 HOT lanes. Citizens expressed concerns over the cost of the tolls, invoking the term “lexus lanes” as an illustration that the HOT lanes would generate a policy […]
In January 2008, then-candidate Barack Obama essentially pledged to shut down the American energy market with new regulations when he said, “If somebody wants to build a coal-powered plant, they can. It’s just that it will bankrupt them.” Two years later his destructive rhetoric continued to flow through the administration’s hallways as federal officials threatened to […]
