While you were focused on the IRS, DC pols just sunk us DEEPER into debt

    Outrageous.  The IRS was asking a religious non-profit about the substance of its prayers.  Outrageous.  A Christian mentoring organization was asked about the specific backgrounds of the students it mentors.  Outrageous.  (Do Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson or Bill Barber get scrutinized like this? Hell, NO. ) While members of Congress got lots...

IRS brouhaha:  Not a Dem or GOP thing.  It’s all about BIG GOVT

Republicans are absolutely giddy over the current IRS scandal.  Agency employees reportedly harrassed Tea Party-linked groups and individuals.  Many in the national GOP see the scandal as an election issue and a possible monkey wrench in the implementation of ObamaCare.

Pinehurst:  The K.I.S.S. rule for budgeting — and “yard debris evaluation” ???????

      Judging from the lamestream media accounts, Pinehurst village manager Andy Wilkison is shocked — SHOCKED — that council members want a budget that is (1) less than 200 pages and (2) is written in language non-bureaucrats can actually understand.   Our thrice-weekly (OOPs, twice-weekly) Kurt Schork Award winning local paper had...

Ritter replacing Kennedy on Moore County board of commissioners

The resignation of Moore County commissioner Craig Kennedy, a few weeks back, has added a little bit of drama to Moore County politics.   Kennedy, in 2010, came out of nowhere to upset incumbent commissioner Cindy Morgan — wife of SpeakerrrrrRichardMorgan™  – in the GOP primary.
