How the Tar fell off the Heel...

Just tonight... 
I have received word via multiple emails and personal phone calls that NC GOP Chairman Robin Hayes and NC Vice-Chair Wayne King have rounded up the North Carolina delegation and put pressure on them to essentially give away North Carolina's authority on the delegate selection process to the RNC.  There are Minority Reports in the works in Tampa, initially supported by National Committee-Woman Ada Fisher and even Speaker of the House Thom Tillis.  Somehow, however, in the midst of the shuffle, orders came from on high, and some backbones were lost (some have never been there to begin with...) and the tar that we North Carolinians used to be famous for has gotten lost in the slime of "go along to get along" politics. Our neighbors to the North, Virginia, as well as to the South, South Carolina, both support the Minority Reports with their delegations.  But, as usual, under the "leadership" of Hayes and King, North Carolina finds herself cowering in fear of the mighty mighty RNC.  Will the delegates stand for the state who sent them to Tampa?  Or will they forever be remembered for betraying the trust of every North Carolina Republican and cow-tow to the fickle cowards at the top of the RNC?  The next 24 hours will tell the truth about Robin Hayes and Wayne King.  Will the RNC find true Tarheels on Tuesday?  Or traitors to their state's trust?

Little Kings of Alamance: Martial Law averted...for now

The following is the first report from one of our field investigators concerning an attempted power grab in Alamance county.  More information will be disclosed as we get it.

At the latest Alamance County Commissioner meeting an interesting item was attempted to be passed on the "Consent Agenda".  The "Consent Agenda" is a  portion of the agenda meant for approval by unanimous consent and with little debate because the items are supposed to be general or routine.  One particular item in the packet of 'routine' work to be handled, however, was anything but general or routine.  Frankly, if not for the watchful eye of veteran Commissioner Bill Lashley, the unthinkable package of authoritarian power meant to be handed over to the Alamance County Manager in the event of a "State of Emergency"  would be a reality today.  The fact that the action was stopped is commendable, but unearthing who is responsible for the production of the document and its insertion on the agenda in such fashion has yet to be answered completely.

Please note in this video link beginning 1 hour 28 minutes and 50 seconds Commissioner Bill Lashley begins speaking about the document in the Agenda (begin on page 39):
BL: "The problem I have with this is I think it's Unconstitutional.  When you are going to control businesses, you're going to stop selling gas, when you're going to stop legal people to assemble...it is Unconstitutional.  I'm not going to support this.  What it's going to do is turn Alamance County into a Police State and I won't be part of it.  Where did it come from?"

Clyde Albright (Alamance County Attorney):  "I drafted it about 3 years ago, at Mr. Smith's direction."

So from what can be ascertained, Lashley stopped the agenda item from being considered and that a "Mr. Smith" had authorized Clyde Albright to author the document.  Researching Alamance Co. officers over the past few years, the only Mr. Smith we note is David Smith, former County Manager who, coincidentally, would have been the person receiving the near Dictatorial Powers.  In fact. according to our research, David Smith had also served as Alamance County Attorney and is now currently running for Alamance County Commissioner as a Republican.  If elected, David Smith could steer through his package of Emergency Measures and Police State Powers.

According to concerned citizen, David Andrews, the topic was discussed at length during a recent Tea Party meeting 3 days after the County Commissioner meeting.  Andrews explained he was there to encourage locals to become more like "watchmen", as Andrews describes his role, of local politicians as much as on Washington.  Andrews used the proposed ordinance as an example of why watchmen are needed.  Andrews read and discussed "what I would call a Martial Law item on the Consent Agenda."  It was at this point an unexpected speaker piped in on the subject, none other than Mr. David Smith was on hand.  Mr. Smith stated that the proposed ordinance was not a good idea.  At that point Mr. Andrews addressed Mr. David Smith saying 'that is odd, Mr. Smith.  You may want to speak up and clear the air.  It is a matter of public record' that Mr. Albright said that you (speaking of Smith) are complicit on this ordinance being written.  Mr. Smith then responded, as best could be inferred by Andrews, that he (Smith) had utilized this type of thing as County Manager several times in the past.    Thus far,  we cannot document any such passage or use of the Martial Law Plan in Alamance County dating back to 2009.

So here's how it stands to date.  Alamance County tables a Martial Law Ordinance (thanks to Patriot Bill Lashley) that was written 3 years ago by County Attorney Albright at the behest of former County Manager David Smith, who is currently running for County Commissioner.  The ordinance would empower the County Manager with Dictatorial Powers in the event of a State of Emergency, including but not limited to the Power to Ban Peaceful Assembly.  The Ordinance in question was attempted to be passed in what some consider a sneaky fashion via the Consent Agenda.  The question now is, Who intervened and had this Egregious assault on our Constitution placed on the "Consent Agenda" for this past month's meeting?  We will be investigating further and reporting when the situation becomes more clear.

Until then, Live Free.

Life over Liberty: Thank you sir, may I have another!

I’ll take Life over Liberty every day of the week.  What’s a minor inconvenience of randomly being checked for explosives at the airport?  Does it really matter that during my annual physical that they take my blood to ensure my BMI is not in line being 60 lbs. over the national standard, so I will now be paying a little extra for my health insurance? Obama care’s death panels are only for the really old, right? By the time I hit 80 I’ve lived a good life, and selfishly taking up the new generation’s resources is asking a bit much don’t you think?  Life is fairly mundane around here, so if I find myself in the midst of social networking...

Time to declare War on War!

WAR! WAR! WAR! Who really cares about “War” here in America? Does it really affect me? Not really.

No one is coming down my street in a NATO or UN tank. No one is trying to take my personal property or my house away from me. Sure there is talk about “gun control” later this month in some distant place called the U.N office in New York. Isn’t that just a bunch of foreign ambassadors that hang out with an ear piece in their ears working with translators?

Honestly, everyone over exaggerates in these alternative news media sources to compete with the mainstream media anyway. The “World” is coming to...

Put it on the Underhill's!

“I’ll have a Bloody Mary, a steak sandwich, and uh….. a steak sandwich please!”  quips Chevy Chase’s investigative journalist Fletch in one of the 80′s funniest comedies.  And, much like Fletch trying to stay one step ahead of the hitmen, the law, the doctors, his wife’s lawyer, his boss, rabid dobermans – you get the picture – almost every American I know feels like their lives are one giant Con where money is concerned.  After all, the concept of real currency has been a fairy tale that we’ve read about in history books for almost a century now.  Let’s all try a practical exercise. Go to your wallet (or purse, ladies…) and pull out any denomination of paper money.  Read the words at the top: Federal Reserve Note. Do you know what those words mean? They mean that the value of that piece of paper in your hand is determined by a particu...continued HERE

It's not the media blackout, STUPID!!

I am not sure of the statistics of how many Americans are really, truly stupid. “STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES” states Forrest Gump. What qualifies for a person to be clinically stupid? Is it not being able to read, write, or do arithmetic? Is it a lack of common sense? Could it be a clinical diagnosis?  Is it a conspiracy theory that we should research? Stupid scientists stating that it may be so many prescription drugs being prescribed for clinically diagnosed Stupid People? Could it have something to do with the quality of a state funded education? If you are reading this article, consider yourself blessed that you don’t really need to be concerned, or do you? Maybe I need to be concerned? Let’s hope not. However, being one of the few smart individuals of the non-drug induced, educated Americans that can still have the skill set of being able to critically think, we can come together to this profound reality: that indeed the fall of the republic is notbecause of the media blackout taking place. It is because WE AMERICANS HAVE BEEN DECLARED OFFICIALLY STUPID!

Chicken Little Bernanke

The sky is falling! The sky is falling! This, in much more articulate words, has been the message of the Federal Reserve to the Congress over at least the past five years. In 2008, the Federal Reserve sounded the alarm eight times from March to October. It seemed every other week there was another crisis to abate, another fire to put out. From Bear/Stearnes and JP Morgan to Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, from AIG and the Big 3 Automakers to the monster that was TARP, we as citizens were on the hook to the tune of 1.6 Trillion dollars. (that’s with a “T”, folks) Then, Bush handed the baton to Obama, and our current president picked right up where our former one left off. Another 1.13 Trillion was printed shortly after Obama took the oath of office in early 2009, when he rolled out his economic plan that projected $8T more to be thrown in the pot...continued HERE
