Rob Miller Afraid to Align with Political Middle

LIBERAL DEMOCRAT ROB MILLER REBUFFS OVERTURE FROM CONGRESSIONAL “BLUE DOGS” South Carolinians wonder: Why is Miller afraid to side with moderates and conservatives? (COLUMBIA, SC – June 30, 2010) Just when you think liberal Democrat Rob Miller has squirmed all he can to avoid publicly taking a firm stand on key issues, he squirms some more. It’s bad enough he bounces back and forth between talking tough on some conservative issues, and then stands with liberals so he can take their hefty checks. Now it turns out Rob Miller is even afraid to align himself with the political middle! Don’t

URGENT: VICTORY 2010 CHALLENGES ROB MILLER TO RETURN MOVEON.ORG MONEY

  AS SENATE HOLDS IMPORTANT HEARING, WILL ROB MILLER RETURN MONEY TO LIBERALS WHO SMEARED GEN. PETRAEUS? SC VICTORY 2010 Challenges Miller to Return $370,950.10 in donations   (COLUMBIA, SC – JUNE 29, 2010) An extremist group once questioned whether a successful American Army General would betray us. Who would take money from people like that? Liberal Democrat Rob Miller, that’s who. As the Senate Armed Services Committee holds a hearing today on General David Petraeus’ nomination to command U.S. military forces in Afghanistan, Americans are remembering a shameful incident that happened amid a similar hearing nearly three years ago.

More Constitution, Not More Socialism

My name is Peter vonLehe Ruegner and earlier today I was informed, from the South Carolina Republican Party, that I was the winner of their Victory 2010 Phone Bank Campaign. Attending this year’s Silver Elephant Banquet will be an exciting experience for me because I am actively involved in politics. Over the past year, I have worked with various campaigns and grassroots organizations to help get conservative candidates elected into office. As a rising junior at the College of Charleston, I have witnessed first-hand the biased “liberal” agenda being pushed in the classroom. Geology professors claim “global warming” is manmade;

Mallory Factor: Debt Crisis In Paradise

by Mallory Factor What leading vacation destination has a warm, temperate climate, villas overlooking the sea, terrific food and drink, and an enormous debt crisis? Greece has been in the news recently because its massive debt is sparking a crisis in the European Union. But I was actually referring to California. While Greece dominates the headlines, California’s state debt is actually rated as more risky than Greek debt by at least two rating agencies. Although the rating agencies differ in their assessments of Greece and California, Moody’s rating agency gives California a Baa1 while it gives Greece a higher rating—A2.

Ben Kinlaw: Healthcare bill is sick legislation

The following was written by Barnwell County Chairman Ben Kinlaw and published in The People-Sentinel. I am writing in opposition to the U.S. House Democrats approving a government take over of the health care system March 21, voting over unanimous Republican opposition by 219-to-212. There is no debate regarding the issue that the health care system needs some type of reform. The House gave final approval to legislation passed by the Senate Dec. 24. The only bipartisanship demonstrated occurred when 34 Democrats joined Republicans in voting against the bill. Americans have disgust when an abuse of power is demonstrated by

John Cox: The Saturday Morning Toast

I took my 4 year old son to eat breakfast this morning. Having three sisters, he appreciates the father-son time more than most. We went to eat at one of Marion’s iconic eateries, Richard’s Restaurant. It’s your typical greasy spoon that you can find in just about every small town in America. Richard Godbold has been a short order cook in Marion for over 50 years. He has been serving up good food for good folks at his present location since 1982. My father’s morning ritual always included breakfast at Richard’s nearly every day up until shortly before he died.

Mallory Factor: The Art of Economics

Here’s why America needs to listen to Arthur Laffer. Like any field, economics has its trends and fads. Recently, Keynesian economics has been in vogue. Based on the work of British economist John Maynard Keynes, Keynesian economics urge governments to increase their spending and to stabilize the economy in crisis periods. The Obama administration has tried to explain its response to the current financial crisis in terms of the application of Keynesian principles. But as many conclude that our government’s responses have been flawed as well as expensive, it’s time to listen to the advice of another major 20th century

Wesley Donehue: It’s Time For You To Call Rob Miller

Call the Democrat candidate at his campaign office and ask him what his position is. The number is 843-379-3680. Rob Miller wanted to be a member of Congress two years ago, but has refused to give his position on the health bill when asked by reporters on multiple occasions recently. (The Island Packet, The Hill Newspaper) Nancy Pelosi and her gang of liberals have vowed to pass the health care takeover as early as this weekend. This is one of the biggest bills ever to come through the halls of Congress and voters have a right to know Miller’s position.

Christine Byington: Taking America Back

“I have lived in this house since 1993 and you are the first person to talk to me, in person, about a candidate.” In late October 2009 I had the opportunity to travel to Virginia to help lead Bob McDonnell and the Republican ticket to victory. On the third day of walking around the neighborhoods of Western Virginia, I encountered a woman who expressed her joy that someone spoke to her in person. To me, her statement addressed one of the main reasons the 72-hour GOTV is important, and why we should embrace this effort throughout the campaign season. We

Wesley Donehue: Proud to Stand with Jim DeMint

I couldn’t have been more proud to sit in the back of the room and watch Jim DeMint during his speech to the Conservative Political Action Committee. This was a quiet Congressman I met in 2003 — hired as the fourth staffer on his primary campaign — who has become a national rock star. He’s done good work, but what’s amazing is that he’s become this rock star for a very simple reason: He tells the truth and sticks to his beliefs. It’s both exciting and sad to see. It’s exciting to see someone like Senator DeMint become so popular,
