One can only guess what the NC Highway Patrol is telling their patrolmen these days or, for that matter, what type person they’re allowing to wear the uniform. I give you this example. Recently an acquaintance of mine was driving along NC 49 in Cabarrus County. A HP trooper moved into position in front of […]
Republicans in the General Assembly are becoming ever more creative in figuring out ways to separate people from their money. First we are told that the state is “oh so broke” and only toll lanes and HOT lanes can possibly solve our nagging infrastructure problems. Now, the same folks are advocating for higher gas taxes, […]
I’d be willing to bet that the U.S. Constitution is not the #1 topic of your conversations today. It’s one of those things you take for granted, like the sunrise… it’s there supporting you, but you don’t think about it too much. What you don’t know is that the Constitution is very much the topic […]
I was just having a conversation on Facebook with a friend of mine who posted a note thanking his state senator for opposing efforts by some in his county to move to non-partisan elections. He happens to be a sitting County Commissioner in one of those “foreign” eastern NC counties. 🙂 If you have at […]

Further, let us imagine it is produced by people who work and invest, and not those who only […]
The Reverend Al Sharpton denies liberty and freedom to those who purchase his wares. He’s a race profiteer, one who makes his living creating racial tension not healing communities. Even though he owes the IRS millions in back taxes, Sharpton visited the White House 61 times in 2014 and reportedly advised the President on Attorney […]
From the moment it was announced that a weekly Muslim call to prayer was going to be sent out over an amplified sound system from the top of Duke Chapel at Duke University last week, you knew it was going to be controversial. After all, Duke University used to be Ground Zero for the training […]
When it comes to state issues, PunditHouse mostly focuses on North Carolina politics. That said, we are based in Charlotte and have a number of SC residents who read our site. Regardless of where you live, it is important to remain vigilant about protecting your rights, especially your gun rights. This just came in from […]
According to the Charlotte Observer, Governor McCrory is meeting with President Obama to discuss implementing ObamaCare’s Medicaid expansion! And he’s trying to fool you into thinking it will be a special “North Carolina solution.” We’ve seen this very thing in states like Arkansas, where so-called “conservatives” throw in a rule or two and then call […]
