Well, it’s been a strange year in politics with some surprises, many disappointments, and several very positive developments. South Carolina Republicans made some major changes to the good ole boy system and put a considerable dent into the establishment’s power base.

Nikki Haley winning the Republican nomination was a big surprise to many in the GOP who fought so hard against her. Members of the RINO establishment got down and dirty which I believe backfired on them resulting in a boost in her popularity. The Tea Party and grassroots volunteers were mostly responsible for her victories.

I have been fighting for Nikki Haley (my state rep) for many years and I knew that once voters statewide got to know her they would support and appreciate her. Nikki is one of the bravest public servants and one of the only few state house members to stand up to the RINO establishment powerhouses like Bobby Harrell and Jake Knotts.

Though we have a long way to go and much work before the November general election, I feel that her popularity will grow and the great people of South Carolina will rally around her and support her platform.

Many members of the RINO establishment are now as predicted showing their true colors and working behind the scenes to sabotage her campaign with many of them planning to jump ship and support the extreme liberal democratic nominee Vincent Sheheen.  You will soon begin to see Facebook pages, websites, and groups such as the newly formed “Republicans for Sheheen.” Beware of these groups; these people are traitors to conservative values and an embarrassment to true Republicans.

State Treasurer Converse Chellis was soundly defeated by fiscal conservative Curtis Loftis which was a huge blow against the RINO establishment who for many years have controlled the state’s checkbook the set fiscal priorities to the detriment of the state’s economy.

Another victory for the citizens of our great state was the defeat of Speaker Pro Tempore Harry Cato (SC-17) a very powerful member of the RINO establishment.

Bill Connor and Kelly Payne were both were unsuccessful in their campaigns. I was warned months before the primaries by a powerful member of the establishment and ruler of the Lexington Republican Party that they had to be defeated and he was right. Bill ran a clean Christian campaign against the well funded darling of the political establishment Ken Ard.

The establishment could also not afford to lose the huge profits generated from the South Carolina Public School System and solicited a popular General to lead the fight to maintain control of their number one “cash cow.”  The school system spends hundreds of millions on worthless consultant fees and buddy contracts. The teacher associations will never allow a fiscal conservative who puts the children’s education first to ever get elected as superintendent – call it the gravy train mentality or just self preservation.

The more people learn about the stranglehold that the RINO machine has had on our state the more they will support political independents like Nikki Haley and Curt Loftis….The fight continues!

See the (R) behind my name - my master told me that it makes me a Republican.

The South Carolina State Senate is controlled by liberal "conformist" democrats masquerading as Republican Conservatives. The statewide mainstream media has been complicit in this façade. The socialist media and the democratic (RINO) establishment has done almost everything they can to disrupt the campaigns and destroy the reputations of true state Republican reform candidates Nikki Haley, Bill Connor, Curtis Loftis & Kelly Payne.

The political control freaks of South Carolina are scared and desperate for fear of the people getting wise to their well engineered (so far successful) plan to control the legislative and political process of South Carolina by placing spineless puppets in the State Senate and calling them Republicans, you can place cow chips in an oven and call them biscuits but it will not make them taste better with apple jelly.

If the aforementioned candidates along with Alan Wilson are successful and are collectively elected to statewide offices this year, the establishment could lose over a Billion dollars in consultant fees and contracts.

Nikki Haley has withstood the test of courage while a state legislator and will stand tall as Governor against a very powerful non-conservative force called the State Senate. Not all members are corrupt or servants of the masters of the establishment. Many like State Treasurer Converse Chellis, Senators Jakie Knotts, Hugh Leatherman , Glenn McConnell, Larry Martin, & John E. Courson and many others have worked with South Carolina State House powerhouses like Harry Cato & Bobby Harrell to control the legislative process this to the detriment of the citizens of South Carolina who are truly hurting!

The establishment runs multiple, of what I refer to as "conformist" candidates in nearly every election consisting usually of a democrat and a "Republican." South Carolina being a conservative state insures that the "Republican" will win more times than none. This carefully crafted process guarantees that the establishment will continue to maintain control of the legislative body of state government and allows them to thwart attempts by conservatives to do the people's business.

Now, the establishment is desperate to silence Nikki Haley who has spent most of her legislative career pushing the people's legislation like the "Roll Call" law which was recently shot down by the so-called Republican leadership at the direction of their puppet masters. The spineless RINOS do only what they're told and perform & conform to the commands of the establishment and have absolutely no independent thought. These liberal pawns have not one iota of concern for the people of this wonderful state.

The masters are spending millions of dollars on getting their puppets elected in fear that true conservative republicans like Payne, Connor, and Loftis will get elected and stop the (money) machine that has been operating unhindered for so many years.

It is time for transparency, accountability, efficiency, and more importantly jobs for all of the people of South Carolina - not just the select few who are getting wealthy off the backs of our hard working citizens. We need leaders, not puppets who reform, not conform!

Wanna know why so many Liberals support and fight for illegal immigration?

Obviously, the liberals & socialists want to use immigration reform to provide amnesty to all illegal aliens so as to build a new voting block. The other component: 1 out of 25 are drug mules and 5 out of 25 are used as look-outs and decoys - liberals love their dope. There are nearly twice as many Hispanic voters then that of African-Americans. Gangs create fear and destroy urban economies which eventually generates more government dependency. Dependency = Power!

A truly conservative legislator or government body will nearly always propose legislation that is conservative in nature. Likewise socialist politicians such as the Obama administration will only propose legislation that is socialistic which ultimately treads on the rights of all patriotic Americans. Just look at the budget, stimulus, and healthcare bills, none of them were read and contained tons of entitlements, new government agencies, and tax increases. All of these bills were shoved down the throats of "We the People!" so why would Financial Reform Legislation be any different.

Nobody in either house of congress has read this bill in its entirety and probably never will. Republicans must stand their ground on this issue and become an information pipeline bringing the facts of this and all such bills to the American people and never support this or any such socialist bills proposed by this corrupt administration. Attention Republicans, just do the RIGHT thing for these bills are anti-American at their core so quit negotiating with the enemy!!!

Sound crazy don't it - well, this is what the world and many Americans including the Obama Administration want us to do with our nuclear arsenal. They expect us to dismantle our weapons first then Russia, China, India, Pakistan, and other nuclear powers will reduce the numbers of their warheads.

They know that this will not happen and are not oblivious to reality. So why would any American much less the President of the United States want us to practically eliminate our basic national defenses?
